To Do and Die

Host Karriaunna says:
History: The history of the Q'Orphod species is maligned and convoluted. Decades ago, they were a humanoid species who ruled an empire in a great, distant galaxy. However, the Inv'd [dubbed the "Bellicose" by Starfleet Command] overthrew their empire, and enslaved their world amongst many others.

In fear of being annihilated, thousands fled their homeworld under the careful eye of the Q'Orphod Masters, scientists/geneticists/mystics of great power. The Masters sought to hide their refugees by altering their genetic code, making them reptilian humanoids that are entirely dependant on a bioelectric liquid.

Their hope was that the Bellicose would not pick up on this.

Their fleeing eventually brought them to the Milky Way Galaxy [through subspace folding, and eventually through gravimetric shear drives] where they fled into the Alpha Quadrant, and then Federation territory [the aliens of the 1st ACTD-Wide Storyline - "Invasion"].

The Refugees weren't, however, very successful in their fleeing ... and the Bellicose came forth to slaughter them for thinking they could away [as seen in the 4th ACTD-Wide Storyline - "Never So Few"]. A low percentage of the original populace that fled their homeworld Riga actually made it to safety.

Scattered amongst the Universe, most of them don't even know that Starfleet freed Riga and several other worlds from the Bellicose.

Host Karriaunna says:
Synopsis:  There is unease running quietly throughout Starfleet.  With the discovery of the missing Q'Orphod refugees and destruction of the alien space station Zi Aquari, along with reports by other ships feeling the affect of gravimetric distortions,
The USS Pendragon commanded by Captain Zax, the USS Montgomery (Defiant class) commanded by Captain Merlin and the USS Adidas (Galaxy class) commanded by Captain Scott have been sent to the western borders of the federation near the Arkonnian empire to wait, watch, report, and defend...
