OOC: I don't follow. Is this a new RPG, or was this somehow in progress before it started? Y'all are talking as if there are rules to this world, but I honestly can't tell if they are already there (in which case they need to be available for new players to read), or if you all are making them up on the spot.
The only past I know about is Clive's past, which your whole Borg thing screwed up by assimilating the galaxy. I WAS going to do a ton of char. dev with old enemies, past locations, and stuff, and it's been nuked. the whole "my guys are eating your guys" thing came as a stall tactic to let me salvage my storyline. It didn't work, and I can't revise my backstory fast enough to accommodate. I have like three different "quests" Clive should be dealing with, and I'm still waiting to get out of "crisis mode" so he has a reason to go explore them.
Bottom line: If there's an ongoing storyline with specific history that will affect the current story, I need to know, and it needs to be posted publicly for all players to see. It's not fair for some players to know everything that went on in the past and some not to, especially if some characters of the players of the first group have access to insane superweapons in addition to their players' past knowledge. If this is the middle of a saga, then I need to get rid of Clive and come up with a character better suited for this style of play, because I have a legitimate story for him that will never get to be told in this sort of setting. Or, to put it bluntly: "Explain the rules, blast it!"
IC: The yellow blobs attach to the other Undine ship near the Enterprise. It screams in pain, and across the universe the Undine suddenly retreat for deep space before anything else can follow. Meanwhile, the two Undine ships in the system destroy themselves by slightly altering their established genetic code.
Meanwhile, Clive looks out a viewport at the yellow blobs. He tries to scan one, but suddenly he passes out. He lies on the floor, in a coma.
