Vlongs

Vlongs are a fictional species from the Star Trek universe, primarily appearing in the video game Star Trek: Starfleet Command. They are a reptilian species known for their stoic nature and their advanced technology. Vlongs are a warrior race, often depicted as having a militaristic society with a strong emphasis on honor and discipline.

Their homeworld is Vlongar, a harsh environment that has shaped their resilient physiology. Vlongs are physically imposing, with thick scales and powerful builds. They are known to be highly intelligent and strategic, making them formidable opponents in combat. In the Starfleet Command games, the Vlong are a playable faction, allowing players to command their starships, which are characterized by their robust construction and potent weaponry.

The Vlong society is hierarchical, with a clear chain of command. While often portrayed as antagonists due to their aggressive expansionist tendencies and conflicts with other species, their motivations are typically driven by survival and the protection of their own kind. Their culture values strength and self-reliance. Despite their martial reputation, Vlongs are not inherently evil, but rather a species with a distinct set of priorities and a pragmatic approach to interstellar relations. Their interactions with other galactic powers are often marked by suspicion and a careful assessment of threats and opportunities.
