Following the events of the previous conference ("[[First Contact]]"), the Universal Council began to investigate the strange vegetation that had sprung up around station Ignis, as well as safer methods to cross through the newly-opened wormholes | Following the events of the previous conference ("[[First Contact]]"), the Universal Council began to investigate the strange vegetation that had sprung up around station Ignis, as well as safer methods to cross through the newly-opened wormholes. | ||
It was discovered that Borealis had in fact appropriated the samples of Organic Quantum from the strange vegetation surrounding Ignis; as a result, Imperial councilmember Emille Galateo threatened to withdraw his House's support in the provision of reinforced plating for wormhole probes should Borealis be allowed to continue their practices | In light of this endeavour, Federation corporation Borealis Inc. proposed a solution stemming from their experiments with Quantum-infused soldiers ("[[The Void]]") - introducing Quantum into the human body to make it more resistant to the effects of the wormholes. Borealis also found that Organic Quantum, first extracted from the survivors of the Panopea incident ("[[Quantum Sickness]]"), could be used to achieve the same effect without the accompanying sickness. | ||
It was discovered that Borealis had in fact appropriated the samples of Organic Quantum from the strange vegetation surrounding Ignis; as a result, Imperial councilmember Emille Galateo threatened to withdraw his House's support in the provision of reinforced plating for wormhole probes should Borealis be allowed to continue their practices unmolested. Forced to choose between medical augmentation and Galateo's reinforced plating, the Council chose to resolve the dilemma through a vote, with the seated Councilmembers briefing their respective factions accordingly. | |||
With the factions unanimously favoring Borealis Inc. and its human augmentations, volunteers were selected to take part in the experiments, the results of which would be directly communicated to the Council. | With the factions unanimously favoring Borealis Inc. and its human augmentations, volunteers were selected to take part in the experiments, the results of which would be directly communicated to the Council. |
