Delta Quadrant Races
Captain's Blog Stardate 92231.44
I was really hoping we would get some more dev blogs this week about Delta Rising, but all we got was an "Intelligence Briefing". Basically it talks about the various races and their ships that we'll meet as well as a back story on them. It's nice, but I just wanted more (I'm greedy). In any case, here's what I think about it.
One thing that I really liked was how they mentioned Neelix and his wife Dexa have banded Talaxian groups together to form a community that may need help. First, this makes me think we'll get to hear Ethan Phillips voice Neelix again, and two it sounds like an interesting story line to explore.
The Kazon and Ocampans are mentioned as well. We'll surely have the Kazon to fight as our primary enemy and I don't doubt we'll see more of the Borg and Undine. The Ocampans will play a role as well and we'll probably learn more about what happened to that original colony where Kes was found.
I do hope that all this means we'll get to see these races in the Foundry and possibly have (at least) the Ocampans and Talaxians as playable characters. I'm sure we'll get more information as the weeks go on, but for now what I want to know is which race from Voyager would you like to see in Delta Rising?

I would actually love to see what became of the Viidians. Considering the Think Tank mentioned they found a cure for the phage, I think they may be a force to be reckoned with or a powerful ally. Also, I would like to see what became of the race from Friendship One.

The Ocampans that were with the other 'caretaker' would be a very interesting villain as well, with their telepathic abilities.

Oh yeah, especially since Susperia left her behind. It would be interesting to see, what the Ocampans made of it.

Personally, I expect a return of the Kazon and the Ocampa.
Additional STFs featuring the Borg and the Undine are also quite possible.
I'm hoping for a story line, that maybe include races like the Devore and the Vaadwaur.
Unfortunately, since the Vidiians are supposedly cured from the Phage, they will most likely be much of a threat.

I have to say that when I heard the Kazon were included my heart sank a little. To me personally the Kazon were the worst "bad guys" ever. I believe its been said that even the shows producers thought so to. I hope they dont make the Kazon the main protagonists as that wont seem at all right to me. And they use far to much gel in their hair :P lol

As I am currently wathcing Voyager again, it occured to me, that we could see the Malon as well or the Borg Resistance.
I don't consider the Kazon to be the main Antagonists here. They practically survived two Seasons. They will probably still be at each others throats, UNLESS they managed to unite all Kazon sects. Then there may be trouble. :D

I would like to see the Viidians and the Hierarchy Species come into play.
From looking at another website, the Hierarchy will be an enemy race.

I for one would want to see a seriously intense story line with the borg, and increased story with the Voth as well.
possible storyline could be be a kazon fight as they have a caretaker captive and fed forces are trying to release it?
perhaps a different story line could be that the fed/klingons want to to build a starbase and the kazon unite to stop them... it could lead into a final mission stated above?
this could then lead into building a commerce storyline in trying to build up a new federation in the delta quadrant... stories could be endless and easily expanded. we dont have to build a starbase as a fleet project but this would be a story based project. diplomatic missions and helping other races mission would be a good thing.
Vidians could then factor in tot he story lilne somewhere. - they see the federation as a new source of organs until the fed develops a cure for the phage and helps them.
This could then lead up to a borg fight (stories to be decided later)
we could then go into other story lines with other species shown in the series.
what do you guys think?

The Vidiians are supposedly healed from the Phage by the Think Tank. They have no more need for Replacement Organs.
