Erin Gant

A major in the U.S. military, and a senior officer on board the Earth ship Prometheus. Gant served under Colonel William Ronson, the ship's first commander. Her station is to the starboard side of the command chair on the bridge of the ship. Gant carries a presence of loyalty and an adherence to authority, and resonates as being both beautiful and a strong, capable officer.

Gant was present during Prometheus' first test run using the new naquadria hyperdrive, and was with the ship when it became stranded on the planet Tagrea after a failed hyper-launch threw the vessel far off-course. With the hyperdrive unusable, Gant and the rest of the Prometheus crew returned to Earth through the Stargate before coming back to Tagrea months later. Equipping the ship with a hyperdrive engine cannibalized from a Goa'uld Al'kesh, Gant and the crew settled in for the long trip home.
