==Name== | |||
* '''Proper Name''': [[MA:Singularity|Quantum Singularity]] Life-form | |||

* '''Unknown''': The life-forms exist outside of the normal [[MA:Space-time continuum|space/time continuum]]. | |||
==History== | |||
None recorded. | |||

==Description== | |||
[[MA:Non-humanoid|Non-humanoid]] aliens who are thought to inhabit [[MA:Singularity|quantum singularities]], although this is speculation drawn from their reproductive habits. Very little data has been recorded that would indicate a description of the likely physical appearance of an adult, however, the aliens are able to take control of a [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]] host in order to interact with other [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]] life-forms. This process is fatal to the host. | |||

==Physiology== | |||
It is impossible to tell whether or not a [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]] host has been possessed by a [[MA:Singularity|quantum singularity]] life-form by sight alone. A detailed medical scan will reveal a partially altered body chemistry, and the presence of unusual cells within the host. When occupying a [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]], the life-forms have the ability to emit a biochemical discharge capable of sending a [[human]] into neural shock. This process, however, results in the degradation of their own cells, proving fatal within a few minutes of administration, and is therefore used only as a final defensive resort. | |||
===Reproduction=== | |||
The process by which these aliens reproduce is unknown. However, their habits post-birth indicate that their young must nest within a [[MA:Singularity|quantum singularity]], referred to by the aliens themselves as a "gravity well", in order to survive. The [[MA:Singularity|singularity]] must be naturally occuring; an attempt to raise their young in the artificially created [[MA:Singularity|singularity]] at the heart of a [[MA:D'deridex class|Romulan Warbird]] was met with failure. Furthermore, the attempt to repair the [[MA:D'deridex class|Warbird's]] engine core via power transfer from the [[MA:USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D)|USS Enterprise]] resulted in fragmentation of the [[MA:Space-time continuum|space/time continuum]] with disastrous results: a feedback-pulse induced [[MA:Warp core breach|warp core breach]]. | |||
Attempts to scan the infant life-forms within their artificial nest resulted in an increase in the speed of passage of time. It was theorised, and later proven by [[MA:Data|Lieutenant Commander Data]], that the delta-band emissions of his [[MA:Tricorder|tricorder]] were the cause of this phenomenon. Indeed, he was able to reverse the passage of time by using carefully modified delta-band emissions. | |||
==Psychology== | |||
Little is known of the aliens' psychological characteristics. The only two such entities encountered by [[MA:Starfleet|Starfleet]] were defensive of their young to the point of open hostility. However, after attacking [[MA:Geordi La Forge|Lieutenant Commander Geordi LaForge]] and sending him into neural shock, one of the life-forms communicated with other members of the [[MA:USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D)|USS Enterprise's]] bridge crew, explaining the cause of the temporal fragmentation that they were experiencing, and suggesting a solution. | |||
