On a side note to your cleransing frenzy, how would the Kohr-Ah deal with a "rational" ilwrath? I mean, they could cloak dozens of ships and hide in them, or escape to somewhere else. Well, they'd be seen in HS, but at the very least, they should be able to hide in system...
Just warn me before you give her a hug... I wanna be a couple hundred feet back before you do.
I think sometimes, a race just has to go out and cleanse the universe. You know, have some fun with it. I don't think excruiators had anything to do with it. Who cares if they suffered tremendously trying to earn their freedom? They just need to let off some steam, y'know? Eat some alien flesh... it happens to the best of us.

Exactly. A race needs to go out and "clean up" their galactic backyard ever few thousand years. Convenient and plausible excuses are few and far between.
Oh I welcome hugs.. it makes it easier to pick clean your bones when you are near. And remember, I shall fondle your skeletal remains lovingly for years to come!

We are the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah. Our nature, the fulfillment of our fate requires your destruction. You are filth. It is now your time to be cleansed.
Now that is fraky. Fondling skeletons? NO wonder you don't neliev e in love
As for destruction, I think it's purely therapeutic. Once everyone else is dead, people usually feel a lot betetr. And we don't want to stop people from feeling better do we? even if the people are huge black caterpillars...

... wow. You have strange fetishes.
And hey, what's wrong with the T.O.? I know it's no L.A., but Toronto's got its perks! Well, that's ignoring the whole SARS problem up there right now. I live about an hour away from Toronto, in the quaint cities of Kitchener-Waterloo. Well, the latter to be more exact. Wow, I just crossed over topics. You said you were in Toronto in another post... hopefully you can follow that, lol.
By the way, I hate hugs...

Yeah, Toronto really sucks if you're broke... you need money. That's probably why everyone in the rest of Canada hates the city. If you like New York, without all the mugging and dirty stuff, then Toronto's your place.

We are so off the excruciator topic here it almost hurts. Let me therefore add to the thread that I believe that such devices could be useful in quite a lot of the SC civilizations... To strengthen spathi resolve for example. Or the Umgah would enjoy it just as an practical joke.
As for how I percieve reality... I'm a ship, floating in an almost empty infinity...Sometimes my masters force me to battle, though I do not wish to, soemtimes they just make me travel through the void. I observe the planets teeming with life, from far off or from orbit, but I can never join in that. I am always alone in the cold and the dark...

HAR HAR HAR!
Ahem. Don't forget, there might be a 'training period' where all Kohr-Ah in their maturing years are forced to be implanted with such a device for a certain period of time, to grant them understanding of what incredible torment they might be forced to re-experience for all eternity, if they were to fail in their cleansing of the universe.
