Star Trek Online will be like "Do you mind if we make this one-off alien threat species into a servitor of the Iconians?" and then not even wait for a reply.

Entry 692: The Elachi

Home World: Gamma Vertis IV

Occupation: Mysterious menaces of the week

First Appearance: "Silent Enemy” (ENT, 2002)

Summary: Silent, enigmatic, and dangerous, these beings go by many names among different cultures. "Elachi" is the term used by the Romulans, but others know them as the Mutes, the Vertians, the "Shroomies", or the Kovaalans. They utilize dampening fields to keep starships they find "interesting" silenced before moving in to attack. They tend to attack vessels that are isolated, often going out of their way to ensure their isolation by destroying nearby communications beacons before moving in to attack. Their motivations for attacking other ships remains unclear, as they have never been encountered by anyone who has not been the target of an attack. Recent re-analysis of scans taken by the NX-01 has suggested that the Elachi are a sentient fungus, though the truth of this is inconclusive. Fortunately, they have not been recorded as having encountered humans or Vulcans since the 2150s, when they menaced the NX-01 Enterprise. However, these records do not include those countless starships that have gone completely missing over the years, lost forever with all hands...
