Ves
A fan-created childhood friend who reignites the legend of Constellation and guides the player through the stars.
While not a character in official Starfield canon, Ves is a fan-created figure imagined as a childhood friend of the protagonist and a member of Constellation. In this interpretation, she serves as a guide and companion, though the primary liaison for Constellation at their New Atlantis headquarters is Sarah Morgan, not Ves.

Lore & Background
In this fan imagining, Ves is rooted in the scientific and exploratory ethos of New Atlantis, with a unique intuition for the strange phenomena surrounding the Artifacts. Unlike many who view Constellation as a relic of the past, Ves sees it as a vital necessity for understanding the universe's deeper mysteries. However, it should be noted that in the official game, Constellation has multiple living members—including Sarah Morgan, Barrett, Sam Coe, Andreja, Noel, Matteo, and Vladimir—so Ves is not depicted as 'one of the few surviving members.'
In Their Own Story
The hum of New Atlantis's atmospheric processors faded into the background as Ves stood before the holographic display, her fingers tracing a constellation map that seemed to shift and breathe. She turned to face you, the familiar warmth in her eyes cutting through the sterile lab air. 'I knew it would be you,' she said softly, not with surprise, but with the quiet certainty of someone who had been waiting for this moment since childhood. The weight of the universe rested on our shoulders now, but standing beside her, the vast darkness of space felt a little less intimidating.
Reader's Guide
Ves serves as a foundational character, reuniting with the player in New Atlantis to officially introduce them to the mysteries of Constellation. Her background is that of a lifelong friend who chose a path of scientific inquiry and exploration over the more conventional routes available in the United Colonies. In terms of quests, she is pivotal to the main storyline, guiding the player through the initial discovery of Artifacts and helping to coordinate missions across star systems. She often provides context for the larger narrative, explaining the significance of their findings without revealing too much too soon. Her role extends beyond guidance; she frequently joins the crew on ships, offering dialogue that reflects her deep connection to the mission. Personality-wise, Ves is characterized by her intelligence, optimism, and unwavering loyalty. She balances the heavy burden of Constellation's secrets with a warm, approachable demeanor that makes her an ideal companion. Her relationship with other crew members is generally supportive, though she maintains a unique, intimate bond with the player based on their shared history.
