Emergency Medical Holographic program

The **Emergency Medical Holographic program** (**EMH**) was a sophisticated hologram used on most Federation starships in the late 24th century that was designed to provide assistance to medical staff in times of emergency. It was developed by Dr. Lewis Zimmerman on Jupiter Station and was formally known as **EMH Program AK-1 Diagnostic and Surgical Subroutine Omega-323**.

## Mark I

The Mark I was based on their designer, Dr. Zimmerman, both physically and psychologically. This produced an arrogant and irritable hologram that became notorious for its less than gracious bedside manner, which saw some doctors try to avoid activating the program.

## Mark II

By mid-2374, the Mark II of the EMH had been designed and put into service. Unlike the Mark I it was not based physically on Dr. Zimmerman and was designed to fix several of the flaws in the Mark I.

Romulan

The **Romulans** were a humanoid species and off-shoot of the Vulcans. After rejecting the teachings of Surak they left Vulcan and eventually settled on the world Romulus. The Romulans were governed by the Romulan Star Empire that rose to be one of the major powers in its region of the Milky Way.

## Physiology

Due to their common ancestry the Romulans share many of the same genetic traits as Vulcans. Both have the notable external feature of pointed elfish ears and upturned eyebrows. They also both have copper based blood that appears green. Some Romulans also have a "V" shaped forehead ridge, while others are externally indistinguishable from their Vulcan cousins.

Romulans are not completely similar to their Vulcan cousins. There exists enough differentiation between the two that medical practices known to work on Vulcans will not necessarily work with Romulans.

Romulans do not possess the same mental abilities as Vulcans and lack the emotional control of their distant cousins.

## History

The Romulan people were born out of a split on Vulcan between those who followed the teachings of Surak in relation to emotions and logic and those that did not. Those that rejected Surak's teachings left their homeworld and journeyed the stars, settling on various planets. These travellers eventually came across the planet that would be latter known as Romulus, settling it as their new homeworld and forming into the Romulan Star Empire.

The Romulans developed into a culture that appears paranoid and isolationist. They see themselves as superior to other forms of life making them appear to be arrogant to other species.

Romulan Star Navy

The **Romulan Star Navy** was the primary space forces of the Romulan Guard, the military force of the Romulan Star Empire.

## Organisation

The Romulan Star Navy uses a complex organisational structure for its spaces forces. Its fleets are based around particular groups, such as Command Fleets, Praetorian Fleets, Senatorial fleets, Coalition fleets and other special fleets.

Generally these fleets are then usually assigned to specific "commands" due to their overall operational assignment. Generally most fleets fall under the auspice of Star Command, the administrative nexus of the Star Navy. Though due to the heavily politicised nature of the Star Navy Star Command wielded little power of some fleets. Various sub-commands included Exploration Command, Pacification Command and Occupation Command, which reported to Star Command.

Fleets were generally made up of at least one avaras or 'centuries' of around a hundred vessels. Avaras were then broken down into command wings of ten to twenty vessels, named after the lead vessel (called a 'wingship') of the wing.

## Size

During the Dominion War the Romulan Star Navy contributed around 7,000 vessels split into twenty-five fleets. Fourteen of the fleets were command fleets with the rest mainly senatorial or coalition fleets from factions that supported the declaration of war against the Dominion. Sufficient forces were left in the empire to guard against other threats.

Kosst Amojan

The **Kosst Amojan** was the name attributed to the Pah-wraiths, though Bajoran historians were unsure if it was a single entity or a group identity.

The Kosst Amojan had the power to revive the dead. It also granted great power to those it possessed that appeared to be telekinetic in nature.

The Kosst Amojan was believed to be able to harvest the pagh of its victims. It would grasp the ear of the recently deceased and strip their pagh from them. The reason for this was unknown, some thought it was just destroying the pagh, possibly to prevent the Bajoran from joining with the Prophets, others believed that it fed on the paghs of its victims.

In 2374, the Kosst Amojan possessed Jake Sisko for its battle with the Prophet on Deep Space 9. It was eventually driven from Jake's body when DS9 was flooded with chroniton radiation.

## Alternate realities

In an alternate universe where the Dominion won the Dominion War the Kosst Amojan was freed in 2394 and possessed Skrain Dukat as its vessel for the Reckoning. In doing so it revived a deceased Dukat and gave him the strength to kill Kira Nerys.

The Kosst Amojan patiently waited within Dukat as he went on a murder spree, only taking control to harvest the pagh of Bajorans. When the Prophets' instrument arrived it asserted its control over Dukat completely.

The Kosst Amojan lost its battle with the Prophet. It instrument was transported to the Fire Caves by the Prophets and deposited into its flames prior to the Prophets' sealed the fate of the Pah-wraiths.

## Starship phasers

Phaser weapons on starships entered service at least by the 2330s.

Phaser banks were the main weapons on Starfleet vessels throughout the 23rd century. By the 24th century phaser arrays replaced phaser banks on starships. Following Starfleet's engagement with the Borg in 2366 they developed the pulse phaser cannon, which fired powerful concentrated phaser blasts.

Until the 2370s the type-X phaser array was the most powerful phaser weapon employed on starships. More powerful types of phaser existed but their size saw them installed on large space stations or as planetary defence weapons. However, Federation technology improved so that the type-XII phaser array could be adapted to use on a starship with the *Sovereign*-class the first to be equipped with the type-XII.
