| Borg |
Description: (v 181 GOLD) The Borg had at one time posed the most dangerous threat to the Federation and the Alpha Quadrant in general. These cyborgs have no feeling, no emotion, no individual thought, but share in the network of thought which comprise the Collective and work as a drone at a very specific task upon activation. The Borg are anything but pacific, however, and their drive to learn more and improve them selves evolved into a predatory process which involved seeking out new civilizations to "assimilate" and add to their Collective consciousness.
Biological Description: The Borg are a race of "enhanced" humanoids native to the Delta Quadrant. Originally completely organic, their evolutionary path led them to create a highly effective hive social structure that achieves a collective consciousness through cybernetic implants.
Society Description: The immense knowledge of all the assimilated Borg minds function as one, and each Borg is part of a giant subspace communications network called the Borg Collective. All critical information is relayed to each Borg through this network, allowing the instantaneous adaptation and reaction to any outside factors. The hive society of the Borg is extremely specialized: the decisions are not made by the Borg themselves, rather, the needs of the Collective determines their actions.
General History Description: The Borg race was once a humanoid race of beings very similar to humans. However a catastrophic even occurred which nearly caused the extinction of their race. In order to survive those remaining agreed to the reticule ideas of a long female scientist. They would combine their minds, their thoughts, their knowledge into a "collective" in order to bring about rapid advancements that would save their race from extinction. Shortly after everyone was fitted with the device that would allow them to become inter linked, the neural net was activated, and everyone on the planet became one mind and only one mind, say for the lone Scientist who had created the technology. She alone was the only individual within the "Collective." It was during the early days of the Borg Collective when a lone space vessel fell from the stars, it had traveled through some sort of gravitational anomaly and crashed upon their world. The Borg repaired the device and in return it showed them that they, The Collective, were not alone in the stars. That the Galaxy had at least one other race, a race advanced enough to build V'Ger. This was nearly twenty five thousand years ago. From this point forward the Borg history is one of assimilation of new technology, entire races over a thousand worlds, and trillion minds. "Resistance is Futile."
