MSNPC's

Commodore Ael'Riov Arrenhe i-Mnaeha t'Llweii - Commanding Officer of the IRW N'Vok, and in charge of the Romulan fleet holding position, uncloaked, outside of Starbase 118. Mate died due to plague she seeks medication for (Vitali 7), compelling her to bring the fleet to 118 to demand the medical be turned over to her.

Commander Sauren D'Amarok - One of the last remaining Tal Shiar officers located within the 'detention center' that appears near the illness' apparent origin.

Assistant Director Pondahk - Acting head of a department of Agurtha's planetary government. Temporarily the face of the Agurtha government, under Tal Shiar "oversight".

Locations

Lambda Hydrae - Planet in Thracian space known to be infected with the illness. Thousands on the surface are dead. Captain Walker's sister and step-mother known to be there.

Agurtha - Planet inside Romulan territory where the illness first appeared. It is here that the Excalibur is ordered to investigate the illness and render aid. Under strong Tal Shiar influence.

The Detention Center - Small, reinforced building hidden by holoemmiters, used by the Tal Shiar to interrogate questionable Romulan citizens or prisoners from other worlds including Klingons, Humans, and now, Tempestians. Suffered great losses due to being the first stop for many incoming Tempestians (yet unknown to inhabitants). Affected by nearby energy fluctuations.

Tempest 3 - Planet several hundred light years away inhabited by small humanoid species that's about to discover the Iconian Gates

Pertinent Information

The Plague - While no name has been discovered, the illness has claimed hundreds of Romulan/Thracian lives. Symptoms include grey/brittle skin, rashes and boils, and fluid in lungs, for Romulans, but acts somewhat differently in each species it encounters. So far the epidemic has spread to Lambda Hydrae and Agurtha, in the Venturius sector (source: [Vreeya]).
