Soltan Plot Information

Soltan Plot Information:

Soltan

 

- Humanoid, six-limbed (two legs, four arms), blue-skinned with a slightly plastic look to it. (Think Gumby & Friends). First encounted in the Alpha Quadrant. A Soltan vessel crashed on Alamis VIII; some bodies and a very limited amount of technology were recovered.

 

- The Agincourt pursued two Soltan ships to the Perseus Arm, though no identification was made at that time. Later the subspace readings from their propulsion systems led the Agincourt to the planet S'b'una, where a team led by Rieve was warmly -- if bureaucratically -- greeted, and informed that the long-range drives the Agincourt wanted were solely owned by the military.

 

- The Sbuna inhabitants gave directions and a landing-permit to S'a'va, the nearest planet with a military base. As the team was leaving, however, a Soltan class military vessel showed up and fired on the Agincourt, also succeeding in kidnapping four members of the crew despite the Agincourt's shields. The Agincourt was forced to flee that encounter.

 

- Can apparently morph members of other races into Soltans.

Re: Soltan Weapons and Tactical Information

 

The weapons confiscated from the Soltan detainees are as follows:

 

A dual capability hand weapon(s) that transforms from a gel-like ball into a weapon molding perfectly to the users hand grip.

 

An energy rifle(s) with a special custom grip conducive to Soltan anatomy only; can not be operated by non-Soltans.

 

Note: there will be no testing done on the confiscated hand weapons or rifles until further notice, and all weapons are being stored in the armory offices. The access code to the storage locker is known only to myself and Chief Armory Officer Esteban, and will only work in tandem with an ocular scan.

 

The tactical information compiled to date from the Soltan/Gareem encounter and our past skirmishes with the Soltan is as follows:

 

The morphing weapon causing the subspace vortex temporarily interferes with our comms and sensors, and will show as a disruption in local subspace.

 

While the vortex weapon is in use, the combatant ship experiences a power increase and no weapons are employed while vortex is in use.

 

Tactical speculation: The vortex weapon uses a large quantity of power to form, maintain and operate.

Anyone manning the bridge tactical station will attempt to focus our programs and scanners on the specific period from the comm./sensor interference, the power spike and the weapons dampening – this cycle may contain an exploitable vulnerability point to the combatant ship.

 

Note: Sciences is also running an investigation into the vortex tech. Both security and sciences will coordinate where needed with regard to future tactical planning and execution.
