The Vulcans are a race of sapient humanoid aliens from Star Trek. They were the first non-human race to appear in the series, the first aliens to make official contact with humanity in the Star Trek universe and are for the most part humanity's best friends in the stars. They're pretty much space elves: Pointy ears, long lived, being seen as wise, have magic/psionic powers and can crossbreed with humans. A large portion of them are still huge jerks despite this. They are one of the five founding members of the Federation. Which explains why the other races tolerate them.
Vulcans had their own fleet of cool looking starships. Half of them seemed to have been mothballed and the rest used as secondary line vessels by the 23rd century. As Starfleet style ships would be easier to modify and upgrade over their designs with ring based warp nacelles.
Romulans
A species that forked when Vulcans embraced logic and they didn't. These guys are basically Roman Space Elves. Who would stab each other in the back to gain prestige in the Romulan Empire. In the best arc of Star Trek: Enterprise they used holoships to try and destabilize the alliance of the pre Federation races. Which failed as they used an albino Andorian with physic powers and the plan was sabotaged by the crew of the NX-01 after they found his sister. If writers weren't crapping all over the established backstory. We could have gotten a televised version of the Earth-Romunlan War.
They also had some of the best spies in the galaxy, the Tal-Shair. Until a joint operation with the Obsidian Order of the Cardassian Union got them massacred by a Dominion false flag operation and their remnants outplayed by the Federation's Section 31 in Deep Space Nine.
Star Trek RPGs
Notes
- Much of what made the Vulcans special was the performance of Leonard Nimoy of Spock, even though he's not even a full blooded Vulcan. There's also that chick in Enterprise.
