| - Volmae appeared in the Farscape episode "Thank God it's Friday. Again". She presents her self to John Crichton as being the leader on the planet Sykar, however it turns out that she is only a marionette for the Peacekeepers, who are using the planet to harvest the tannot root, with no regard for the effects it has on the planet or it's population.
- Volmae was a female Sykaran and the leader of her people. She differed in appearance and mannerisms from other Sykarans in that she was an albino and spoke in a slow, halted manner. Though she led her people, her planet Sykar was under Peacekeeper control, who were using it for the sole purpose of harvesting tannot root, a plant that they claimed they used as food but in fact utilized it as an ingredient in their weapons development. Although the plant was slowly destroying Sykar, the Peacekeepers ordered Volmae to have her people consume it, the side effects of which created a blissful and oblivious mindset, allowing the Sykarans to be easily controlled.

| - Volmae appeared in the Farscape episode "Thank God it's Friday. Again". She presents her self to John Crichton as being the leader on the planet Sykar, however it turns out that she is only a marionette for the Peacekeepers, who are using the planet to harvest the tannot root, with no regard for the effects it has on the planet or it's population. She is immune to the effects of the tannot root, because she has a worm inside of her that feeds of the tannot root. She knows that the plant has some kind of value to the Peacekeepers, but unsure of its actual purpose. Her plan is to steal the last batch of tannot root and escape with it on Moya, so she attempts to get everyone from the crew down on the planet, so she can control them. However Crichton, has received a worm that makes him immune to the tannont root effects, and discovers her plans and also what the Peacekeepers use the tannot root for. He manage to convince her that the Peacekeepers use the root to fuel their weapons and that they as a people can fight against the Peacekeepers and reverse the effects the tannot root have had on Sykar.
- Volmae was a female Sykaran and the leader of her people. She differed in appearance and mannerisms from other Sykarans in that she was an albino and spoke in a slow, halted manner. Though she led her people, her planet Sykar was under Peacekeeper control, who were using it for the sole purpose of harvesting tannot root, a plant that they claimed they used as food but in fact utilized it as an ingredient in their weapons development. Although the plant was slowly destroying Sykar, the Peacekeepers ordered Volmae to have her people consume it, the side effects of which created a blissful and oblivious mindset, allowing the Sykarans to be easily controlled. With the arrival of Moya to Sykar, Volmae saw an opportunity. Knowing that the tannot root had high value to the Peacekeepers and likely others, Volmae hoped to coax the crew to the planet, load Moya with the root, and escape the planet with her. Fortunately, one of Moya's crew members, John Crichton, was kidnapped by the Sykaran resistance movement against Volmae and forcefully given a worm that negated the effects of the root. Free of the root's influence, Crichton and crewmates Aeryn Sun and Rygel were able to discover and expose the purpose of the root. Now aware that the tannot root was used to create weaponry, Volmae agreed with her people that they would oppose the Peacekeepers "one day at a time." First, however, she declared the following day "a rest day. A real rest day."
