Their selection of unorthodox tactics combined with a massive information advantage make them canny and destabilizing encounters. Having spied on Alpha Quadrant affairs for the past century via the Romulans, they feel quite confident about future dealings with the Federation. |

The great black ships destroy anything they encounter with extreme prejudice, and have never been spoken with nor traded with by any other culture. Information gathered by Starfleet Intelligence suggests that the Borg are aware of the Kriid and consciously choose to avoid assimilating them due to an incompatibility. |

Mendeans are thus very social and tend to be quite charming; those who hone their psionic abilities even moreso. The Mendeans are the second Beta Quadrant race from beyond the Gate to join the Federation since the Romulan alliance. |

Though in their wild childhoods Pholons are Red and are associated with dangerous discharges, they shift to Yellow and master the separation of desires, needs and methods rather rapidly, forming the framework of their Green personality, which aims to let Pholon reason complete and control all, in preparation for the elite Blue state. The Pholon Triune is currently facing a difficult internal debate on the subject of Federation alliance and membership. |

| + | ===The Gate=== | ||
| + | |||
| + | The colloquial term for the relatively safe and empty spatial corridor which exists where the Romulan system once was. Though there is a singularity of some considerable power at the center, the Gate is wide enough that it poses little threat. Certain systems and forms of weaponry do not work within the Gate's region, however, due to the subspace interference put out by the singularity. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===Ostium Latet=== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Located approximately 180 light years beyond the Gate and roughly 150 years past the most proximate pre-Gate Federation world (Zakdorn) and Starbase (153), Ostium Latet is the space station where Starfleet's true flagship is being developed. Though not without suitable defensive capabilities, most of its resources must be devoted to fleet construction and development; as such, extra staff are housed on four upgraded science vessels which patrol the area and gather necessary supplies from nearby worlds. The Horizon-class vessels ''Discovery'' and ''Kirk,'' as well as the Cartier-class ''Labrador'' and the Vista-class ''Orient,'' serve as the primary defense and logistics lines for Ostium Latet. The ''Discovery'' and ''Orient'' carry staff and science officers, while the intended captain of the flagship is located with flight, medical and security staff on the ''Kirk'' and operations, tactical and diplomatic personnel are trained and housed on the ''Labrador.'' | ||
