Redshirt (character)
A "redshirt" is a stock character in fiction who dies soon after being introduced. The term originates from the original ''Star Trek'' (NBC, 1966–69) television series in which the red-shirted security personnel frequently die during episodes. Redshirt deaths are often used to dramatize the potential peril that the main characters face.
==''Star Trek''==
In ''Star Trek'', red-uniformed security officers and engineers who accompany the main characters on landing parties often suffer quick deaths. The trope first appears in the episode "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" (1966). Of the 59 crew members killed in the series, 43 (73%) were wearing red shirts. The ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'' book ''Legends of the Ferengi'' says Starfleet security personnel "rarely survive beyond the second act break". An episode of ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'' titled "Valiant" (1998) also references red as a sort of bad luck omen, in which the plot centers around a group of cadets calling themselves "Red Squad" who all die later in the episode. The cinematic reboot of the franchise features a character named Olson (portrayed by Greg Ellis) who dies early on during a mission; he wears a red uniform in homage to the trope from the original series.〔.〕
