NOTES |
According to ancient Elorg texts, the Mersah Tolidas are an enigmatic--and hostile--race that pass through the MIlky Way Galaxy once every thousand years. Their vessels are highly maneuverable and apparently utilize advanced organic technology, capable of destroying almost any target with ease. Perhaps more noteworthy, however, are the incredible speeds achieved by these vessels. While speeds in excess of warp 20 have been directly observed, Starfleet believes the Mersah Tolidas may have the ability to exceed warp 30, easily making the battlecrab the fastest vessel known to exist. On stardate 73426.5, the USS Starlight encountered a small fleet of Mersah Tolidas passing near the Sigma-Rho System. The aliens were eventually defeated after a lengthy standoff in orbit of the Sigma-Rho accretion disk, and have not since returned. |
