Ensign Sleepy Merp was a female alien Starfleet officer stationed aboard the USS Cerritos in the mid-24th century.

In 2380, she was in one of the corridors when Ensigns Beckett Mariner and Brad Boimler were giving D'Vana Tendi a tour of the ship. Following the neutralization of the rage virus onboard the ship, she visited the ship's bar, where she sat with a Human command ensign. (LD: "Second Contact")

She was among the engineering crew present in main engineering when Sam Rutherford requested a transfer to another department. Later, she was among the crew in the ship's bar when Boimler told of Mariner and his encounter with the Ferengi who Mariner mistook for a Bolian. At the time she was chatting with Jet Manhaver. (LD: "Envoys")

Sleepy Merp later watched Boimler's performance of "Essence" in the ship's bar, followed by Beckett Mariner's performance, which she cringed at. One week after the Temporal Edict was implemented, she frantically ran through the ship's corridors carrying a PADD as she attempted to complete her duties time; these included working on an access panel in the same corridor. Later she bumped into Rutherford in the cargo bay, and caused him to bump into and knock over a barrel of acid. (LD: "Temporal Edict")

She passed by Mariner and Boimler in a corridor as the two parted ways after Mariner complained about her duty assignment. (LD: "Moist Vessel")

Later that year, she was aboard the USS Vancouver where she chatted with three other Cerritos officers near the rear of the shuttlebay when Barbara Brinson entered. A short time after that, Rutherford imagined her, along with the rest of the engineering staff, having their minds blown if he'd brought back a T88 from the USS Vancouver. (LD: "Cupid's Errant Arrow")

She was in the cafeteria the same time Fletcher consumed over three cantaloupes worth of puree from the replicator. Her attention was drawn away from the stunt when she watched as Dr. T'Ana berated Mariner for getting nachos in her fur and for being a disgrace. (LD: "Terminal Provocations")

Late that year, shortly after it was revealed that Beckett Mariner was the captain's daughter, she and several other members of the crew were in the corridor watching as Mariner walked by, before gossiping about the new revelation. (LD: "No Small Parts")

She was in the ship's cafeteria during Brad Boimler's reorientation tour with Commander Jack Ransom following Boimler's reassignment from the USS Titan, she sat and ate with an alien operations ensign behind Rutherford and Tendi. Later, she was in engineering when Lieutenant junior grade Cody asked Shaxs about his return from the dead, and was astonished to hear the question asked aloud. (LD: "We'll Always Have Tom Paris")

She sat with a sciences ensign and a command ensign as they ate in the ship's lounge while the Cerritos was in orbit of Pakled Planet. Later that day, she was sitting at a table in the mess hall when a transformed D'Vana Tendi, in the form of a large scorpion-like creature, entered and threatened the crew. Upon seeing Tendi, she ran for cover behind an overturned table, and was later, briefly inspired by Jennifer's Redshirts' speech. (LD: "The Spy Humongous")

She later participated in the training drills presented by Shari yn Yem in 2381. (LD: "I, Excretus")

She was in the ship's bar, following the Cerritos' battle with the Pakled Clumpship Pakled, where she sat with a sciences ensign. (LD: "wej Duj")

She was sitting in a booth at the bar when Captain Carol Freeman ordered to the to report to their supervisors to assist in removing the Cerritos' hull plating. (LD: "First First Contact")

She worked alongside a Human sciences ensign labeling containers of goodwill gifts for delivery to the Karemma at Deep Space 9. (LD: "Hear All, Trust Nothing")

She was walking through a nearby corridor when Mariner was yelling down an adjacent corridor at Marty about how he was going to lose that years' pie eating contest. A short time later, she was taking down the banner for the Annual Intra Division Pie Eating Contest. Later yet, she was around the corner from Victoria Nuze's quarters, taking a PADD from Commander Ransom, before walking away. (LD: "Trusted Sources")

She later assisted in the final preparations in Engineering aboard USS Voyager as the ship was entrusted to the crew of the Cerritos to be returned to Earth. (LD: "Twovix")

Sleepy Merp was visually identified by name in "Empathological Fallacies".
