Which Star Trek alien you always want to be?

[Ra]

Hey, I don't mind being a Klingon as long as their females are all as lusty as B'Ellana Torres. Remember the VOY Pon Far episode?

True, there were some hot Klingon ladies (not just Torres, but Keh'lyr as well), but I always found the modern Klingons to be pathetic.

TOS Klingons were cunning adversaries that constantly sought to outmaneuver the Federation at every turn; they were also excellent fighters.

TNG Klingons are too busy gulping Blood Wine and banging heads to be good fighters. Hell, this is the race that dropped their disruptor pistols in favor of Bat'leths! Sorry, but I can't stand the modern Klingons.

Wait, thought YOU are the worm instead of the Egyptian boy, :P

Yes, that's correct. That's the one important difference between a Trill and a Goa'uld. Anyway, I was just kidding around. :)

Anyway, KAN, perhaps you should clarify the OP to exclude the godlike races. After all, being a Q would be the given answer.

Fixed.

Excellent. Now, let's all state which non-wanked species we want to be. :D

Now, now. Changing the rules after the game's underway is cheating.

Yes, yes, very impressive. And that changes the fact that it's cheating how exactly?

In what way is modifying the OP to better reflect the author's intent "cheating"? Answering the OP as "Q" is effectively avoiding the question, since as a Q being you could still be any Trek race.

And people think 'I' don't have a sense of humour.

You routinely assert you don't, yet it surprises you when others therefore react to your statements and opinions on that basis? ;)

Of course anyone would want to be a Q from the Q-tinium but I'd prefer creating a race I haven't seen on any Trek episodes. Granted, how the hell would you explain a were-coyote running around in space? :scratch

explain a were-coyote running around in space?

*Techobabble on* An alien retrovirus invaded the victums DNA/RNA and begun rewriting her code. At which point a mutantgenic property came to the forefront resutling in unstable DNA. Due to strange fluxcations on the molecular level victum is able to shift forms. We believe this is done through an linkage between the victum and the retrovirus via energy wave on an atomic scale resulting in a crude communication via urges and emotions.*Techobabble off*

Done.

I'm bedazzled that nobody's picked Betazoid yet -- OBVIOUSLY the coolest. 1-color eyes, telepathy, constant wit and rhetor... Not to mention, they're all unescapably hot... *nodnod* even the half-breeds.
