The flamboyant space pirate played by Beckett Mariner in her holodeck film Crisis Point: The Rise of Vindicta, through whom she works out her anger at her mother in the Lower Decks episode Crisis Point.
Vindicta is a fictional villain invented and performed by Beckett Mariner in the first-season Lower Decks episode Crisis Point. Ordered into therapy by Captain Freeman, Mariner instead takes over a holodeck simulation of the Cerritos crew that Brad Boimler had built to rehearse an interview, and rewrites it as a cinematic epic with herself as the antagonist.
As Vindicta she boards the simulated Cerritos with Tendi and Rutherford cast as her henchmen, cuts down holographic shipmates and brings the vessel crashing onto a planet. Tendi walks out in protest at being made an Orion pirate.
The story ends in a duel with the holographic Freeman, in which Vindicta is beaten by the programme's version of Mariner herself, who insists that she loves her mother and her ship. Boimler, meanwhile, learns from the simulation that Freeman is Mariner's mother.
