Species 116 script

Species 116 script.

Species 116 was the Borg designation for a Delta Quadrant species whose original name was unknown.

This species had a natural ability to almost instantly learn any language. Its members became fluent in a language after hearing only a few phrases. They could also quickly decipher cryptographic patterns.They were also at least partially immune to phasers, as one of their race was shot in the chest without experiencing any apparent effects (Although he may have been wearing some form of 'armor' rather than this being a natural benefit of his race). Their level of technology was very advanced; they employed a sophisticated form of FTL propulsion unknown to Starfleet called quantum slipstream drive. They also had particle synthesis technology, an extremely advanced form of holographic replication technology.

However, their abilities and technological prowess made the species an extremely attractive target for the Borg to assimilate. For centuries the Borg attempted to do so and failed, the species always managing to stay one step ahead of the Borg. But eventually, the Borg began gaining ground, until they were on the brink of succeeding. The species' last hope rested on the expected destruction of the Borg by Species 8472. But due to intervention by the Federation Starship USS Voyager in 2374, the Borg defeated Species 8472. (VOY: "Scorpion", "Scorpion, Part II") The Borg then returned their attention to Species 116 and succeeded in assimilating it. Only ten or twenty thousand were able to escape.

The USS Voyager encountered a surviving member of the species named Arturis, in 2374. He tried to lure Voyager into Borg space for her and her crew to be assimilated in revenge, but his plan backfired and he was presumed to have been assimilated instead. (VOY: "Hope and Fear")
