{I will assume you both carry Security clearances for
this. Mot Brownies are a species of primaye from the
Quarrintined Sector of The Coal Sack. The Motes,
themselves peoved to be a Dangerous race, superiorly
intuitive mechanics, and more adaptable than the Borg.
They are in a constant technology flux, and so is
thier race. Within a generations going from steam to
solar power tech, and eventually destroying itself and
starting over. The USS Renaissace discovered and made
first contact, the ambassadors brought several
'brownies on board as pets or food, one escaped and
they reproduced faster than tribbles, eventually they
fought the crew for control of the ship and won. The
Renaissance was destroyed before could leave the
system, but only from sustained pahser fire from three
class II ships for 2 minutes! They had heavily
modified the shields to that extent. On the planet a
new more destructive war raged with the new based on
the captured tech left behind by crews. The Sector was
declared Quarrantine. Sometimes one or two appear on
the black market. }
