The Borg

Description: 
The Borg are cybernetically enhanced beings dedicated to the assimilation of all other races into their Collective. They are immensely powerful and pose a significant threat to all other races in the galaxy.
Biological Description:
The Borg consist of many different humanoid species assimilated by the Collective. An average Borg contains more than 50% inorganic components including at least one mechanical appendage and a small replicator to provide nutrients for their organic tissues. A Borg must periodically regenerate to recharge their power cells and repair any damaged components. They are also equipped with subspace transceivers to remain in constant contact with the Collective. As a result of their cybernetic implants, the Borg are very strong and can tolerate a wide range of environments, but are unable to survive without their organic components.
Society Description:
The Borg Collective consists of a single networked-consciousness under the guidance of the Borg Queen. There are no individuals in the Collective with the actions of single Borg dictated by its needs. The majority of Borg are general purpose drones with a few Borg specialized to perform specific tasks. The Collective strives towards perfection through the assimilation of other species and technologies to incorporate them into the hive mind.
General History Description:
The Borg were once average humanoids who began to incorporate machine components into their bodies. At some point the minds of all Borg were linked together forming the first Collective. Since that time, the Borg have assimilated thousands of species and continue to expand despite increasing resistance by other species. "Resistance is Futile."
