Romulans are a species closely related to Vulcans that call the planet Romulus in the Beta Quadrant home. The culture is militaristic and passion and emotion are highly valued, though often controlled via duplicity and other means,
Romulan names share many similarities with Vulcan names, though the cultures have diverged and Romulan names tend to prefer slightly different letters than do their Vulcan counterparts. The paranoia induced by aspects of Romulan culture also results in Romulans have a public name for use with strangers, a name they use with family and close friends, and a true name.

Coloke
Coloke hates nothing more than the airs put on by the Romulan military. But she’s too smart to say anything about it. Instead she contents herself with knowing that without the stealth tech she maintains they’d all be dead. Now if she could just quiet the little voice telling her to sabotage her own work and make them all pay.

Will something more come of it though?
