* BizarreAlienBiology: He has three arms and telepathy.
* CelibateHero: While under Harry Mudd's love potion, he only plays a lute. Probably because he has no one of his species onboard the ship.

* HiddenDepths: He's quite good with his lute.
* OnlyOneName: Arex has only one name. Pretty much the trope.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Becomes friends with M'Ress and appears in many scenes with her.

The series introduced two SixthRanger alien crew members, M'Ress and Arex. Since the animators didn't have to worry about the restrictions of live-action makeup and special effects, these new recruits are not the RubberForeheadAliens often shown in the original series. They also appear in ExpandedUniverse works, most notably some of the ''Literature/StarTrekNewFrontier'' novels, in which they are [[FishOutOfTemporalWater time-warped]] into the ''[[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Next Generation]]'' era and wind up serving aboard the USS ''Trident''.
