{{factioninfo | name = Bluegill | faction = Bluegill | status = NPC Faction | species = Bluegill | quadrant = Delta Quadrant | capital = Paria III | political_system = | allegiance = [[Iconian servitor]] | leader = | alliance_relations = Open warfare | imagepeople = Bluegill VanZyl.png | peoplecap = The Bluegill that infested [[Kyla VanZyl]].] | imageships = | shipscap = }} The '''Bluegill''' are a parasitic insectoid [[race]] bio-engineered by the [[Solanae]] on behalf of the [[Iconian]]s. Bluegill have a number of possible forms, ranging from small creatures capable of entering a victim through the mouth, to massive beasts the size of a small building. Most are capable of spitting poison, and can change form and size seemingly on the spot. Bluegill-infested individuals display heightened strength and endurance, and are capable of surviving multiple hits from energy weapons by redirecting the energy as infrared radiation. They cannot possess [[Joined Trill]]s, though. ==History== In [[24th century#2369|2364]], the Bluegill infested the admiralty of [[Starfleet]] in an attempt to seize control of the [[Federation]]. The plan was foiled by the crew of the [[U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701-D)|U.S.S. ''Enterprise''-D]], who were able to destroy the "mother" parasite. ==Missions involved== [[File:Bluegill_Telen.png|thumb|A mature Bluegill bursts from [[Telen|Commander Telen's]] body.]] * {{mission|The Dragon's Deceit}}: The player and Commander [[Eldex]] discover that the Bluegill have infested several leaders of the [[Vaadwaur Supremacy]], including Commander [[Galik]] and [[Telen]]. * {{mission|Bug Hunt}}: A hive is discovered in the Delta Quadrant, and a Delta Alliance task force is sent to destroy it. * {{mission|Revolution}}: The player manages to expose the corruption of the Vaadwaur to the rest of the [[Delta Quadrant]], sparking a civil war in the Supremacy. * {{mission|Takedown}}: It is discovered that [[Gaul]] was never infested by a parasite at all, though he was aware of the corruption from the beginning. * {{mission|What's Left Behind}}: On an [[Outpost 001|Elachi subspace station]] in [[2410]], [[The Doctor]] discovers that the [[Solanae]] bio-engineered the Bluegill on behalf of the [[Iconian]]s and used them to control the [[Vaadwaur]]. * {{mission|Uneasy Allies}}: [[Kyla VanZyl|Lieutenant Commander VanZyl]] turns on the player while investigating [[Nopada Prime]], and after she is defeated a Bluegill parasite is found to have been controlling her. ==Individuals known to be of have been under Bluegill control== [[File:Bluegill_Galik.png|thumb|A Bluegill parasite which had infected the [[Vaadwaur]] [[Galik]].]] * [[Relin]] * [[Galik]] * [[Telen]] * Three [[Vaadwaur Supremacy]] leaders in the [[Kartella System]] * Two [[Elachi]] on [[Outpost 001]] * [[Kyla VanZyl|Lieutenant Commander VanZyl]] ==Notes== * [[Devidian]]s along with the Bluegills are possibly the only major enemy factions with no apparent starships. * The Bluegill were first seen in the ''{{mAlpha|Star Trek: The Next Generation}}'' episode "{{mAlpha|Conspiracy (episode)|Conspiracy}}". They joined [[Star Trek Online]] in the [[Delta Rising]] expansion. ==External links== {{MA Link|Parasitic being}} {{factionnav/Bluegill}} {{factionnav/Iconian}} {{Template:FactionNav}} [[Category:Races]] [[Category:Non-player races]] [[Category:Iconian]] [[Category:Delta Rising]]
