Umgah

The Umgah
The Umgah are a race of practical jokers with a tendency to repeatedly genetically modify themselves. They are members of the Alliance, as a result of a joke on the Ur-Quan (betraying them).

Recent History
The Umgah had begun to realize, along with the rest of the Hierarchy and Alliance, that the Alliance was winning the war. The Umgah thought this would be the best opportunity to play a prank on the entire Hierarchy: outright betraying the Hierarchy and joining the Alliance. At the time, the Umgah fleet was mostly mixed in with the Ilwrath fleet. Not knowing what was about to happen, the Umgah ships closed in to their Ilwrath allies and released their antimatter cones on them, vaporizing half the Ilwrath fleet in a matter of days. The Ur-Quan, in retaliation, prepared to move on the Umgah, but then they were attacked by elite squadrons of Mmrnmhrm and Chenjesu. Soon the Ilwrath surrendered, and then the Umgah were admitted into the Alliance. Har! Har! Har!

The Umgah were then brought under the supervision of the Chenjesu, but are otherwise completely independent. The Umgah form a bulwark against the Zoq-Fot-Pik, assisted by the Chenjesu.

A New Joke
The Umgah have secretly been nurturing a genetically-engineered Ilwrath queen identical to the actual queen in their stars. This queen has been producing Ilwrath. If the Captain does not discover their plot and inform the Chenjesu, then on July of 2117, the fleet will suddenly be unleashed on the Chenjesu, severely weakening them and causing the Ilwrath to regain their cloaking technology. These Ilwrath, genetically modified with an intense affection and perverse sexual attraction to Umgah, and also an intense desire to be subordinates to the Umgah, will form the Um-Gah Hierarchy. This will reduce the Alliance's strength by 25%.

The true Ilwrath will be appalled by this, however, and decide to join the Alliance to fight the Um-Gah. So, in return for getting a massive setback to the Captain, you can now produce Ilwrath Avengers.
