Chapter One: A Plague O' Both Your Houses
Dramatis Personæ
Fero
- Species: Klingon
- Gender: Female
- Physical Description:
- Personal History: A Klingon Daughter of Councillor Ligah. Rumor has it that she will ascend to her father's position within the next few months. This is a surprise move, since Ligah's plan is to graciously retire from the High Council, which is not traditionally seen as an honourable way to end one's career; it is even more intriguing because of Fero's political leanings. While the High Council respects the Federation-Klingon Alliance, Fero is a strong voice in a new generation pushing for the Klingon Empire to become a full member of the Federation. Soon-to-be-Councilor Fero rejects the ideology that good fences make good neighbours.
Klegog
- Species: Klingon
- Gender: Male
- Physical Description:
- Personal History: Klegog is a medical doctor and Lady Fero's attaché - the two seem to share a somewhat antagonistic relationship.
Kala
- Species: Unknown
- Gender: Female
- Physical Description: Leather clad, bubblegum-popping head turner.
- Personal History: Unknown - she is on the station at the behest of "Daddy", a member of the Orion Syndicate, to release the virus.

Items of Interest
Klingon Virus
- Classification: Disease
- Location: Colonies and worlds throughout Klingon Empire, Starbase 118
- Description: A highly pathogenic and mutable virus that is swiftly fatal to Klingons
- History: The virus first appeared many months ago, its emergence tracked to five specific Index Patients on five Klingon worlds (Grekragh, Romakh, Morska, Dral, and Qa'Nan). Since then, it spread like wildfire throughout the Klingon Empire, though the High Council have denied the virus' existence to all outside governments. Early in the initial outbreaks, the Federation, specifically Starbase 118 Ops, developed a viable anti-virus, though the continued denials by the High Council means that the anti-virus has yet to be used on a mass scale within the Empire.
It has come to light that the virus originated within Federation territory, inside a biological research laboratory where scientists were working to discover a cure. It was stolen and deliberately altered to be even more deadly and mutable than the original virus. A vaccine has been made available to immunise the unaffected, but the anti-virals developed earlier in the course of the disease are proving to be ineffective against newer strains. The virus is highly contagious, but only during the incubation period and once symptoms develop an infected individual is no longer able to pass on the disease.
