    Devastating loss.. just so sad to hear. :disappointed:

    I am glad that he was able to lend his talents to STO, his voice work really was one of the highlights of VIL. He will be deeply missed.. R.I.P. You’re a true legend.

    Odo was one of my favorite characters from DS9, I was thrilled to see him make an appearance here and thrilled to hear Rene's voice. A great actor (screen and voice), he will indeed be missed. Rest in peace Odo.

    This is truly awful news, espically so close to the holidays i feel for the family.
    RIP to a Acting God (even if Odo didnt think he was one)

    Just saw it on Facebook and was wondering if it was being discussed here. Another Deep Space Nine star is gone.
    Thank goodness we were able to get Victory Is Life done last year... it's one of the best expansions.

    René Auberjonois has died. He is best known as Odo in DS9. He did several voice overs for STO episodes. He will be greatly missed.

    "LOS ANGELES — René Auberjonois, a prolific actor best known for his roles on the television shows “Benson” and “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” and his part in the 1970 film “M.A.S.H.” playing Father Mulcahy, has passed away. He was 79.
    The actor died Sunday at his home in Los Angeles of metastatic lung cancer, his son Remy Auberjonois told The Associated Press."

    We were lucky to have René Auberjonois lend us his voice acting talents for the Victory is Life expansion.

    I wish we were able to the Vorta added to the game with the Jem'Hadar, esp. considering that Odo had tried to save Wayoun 5, who was 'defective' in the eyes of the Dominion. He would have ensured they also took part in saving the Dominion from the Hur'q.

    We had a bunch of guys over at the security office on Deep Space 9 for a torchlight vigil. You can see myself and @darkbladejk standing as honor guard in the first pic.

    was plenty of good shots to come out of it and I have to say I was glad to see the community come together for this. Within 5-10 minutes of the news coming DS9 filled near to capacity. I had the privilege of guarding the door for 4 hours and 15 minutes before I traded off with someone. Was several changing of the guards type things that i observed. First guy that joined me was a Jem'hadar that stuck around for an hour and 15 minutes before he had other obligations. Another person stepped in without anyone saying a word when he had to leave. I am proud the community was able to come together for this.

    I believe he was one of the better actors in Star Trek, and particularly enjoyed his work in STO.
