Who or What are the Breen?
Answer: The Breen are PARASITES!!!, and not only are they a parasicic lifeform but the same parasites which infilitrated the highest levels of starfleet command to pave the way for an invasion.
So heres my Breen theory which solves two mysteries for the price of one.
Known facts Breen:
They wear refrigeration suits.
Their homeworld was thought to be frozen but isn't really.
They have no blood.
Universal translaters don't seem to work on their language.
After death they can't be seen.
Telepaths don't work on them supposedly because of their fourlobbed brains.
After years of only small raids they suddenly decided to take over the galaxy.
They breed when young, apparently.
They have "organic based ships".
They have developed a weapon capable of disabling most ships.
They might be stronger than they look (apparently when worf hit one it didn't seem to react, possibly due to heavy suit or maybe it was a very strong Breen).
They have closk.
They wear the suits for two reasons, first to hide the fact that the body they're using is human, romulan, bolian etc.
Second because the host bodies they use tend to break down over time and lowering the temperature helps keep them going longer.
Universal translators don't translate their language because the Breens own translator is interfering with it, in other words the Breen is speaking romulan, english etc and its then being translated into 'Breen Speak' to hide this fact.
The Breen don't really have no blood its simply misinformation to stop people getting a dna sample, possible suits or some inner suit stops hyposprays from getting through.
Suits also interfere with scanners to hide identity.
When Breen dies or someone attempts to remove suit body is vaporised to stop identification leaving no trace or possibly just unidentifiable organic residue leading to conclusions that species might evaporate on air contact or go through extremely rapid form of decomposition.
Their weapons system has been specifically designed to allow the disable and capture of ships whose crews would be placed in breeding camps on the Breen worlds to create more and more hosts for the burgeoning Breen parasite population (ewww!
).
And now the mystery parasite race:
The Breen didn't decide all at at once to start trying to take over the galaxy they worked up to it. First attempt was to take the federation, this attempt was probably driven by advances in technology by various Alpha Quadrant species.
This lead to it being harder for the Breen to secretly capture ships and the host breeding colonies were not producing hosts quick enough, so the Breen decided to make a big move and capture the Federation.
Using a parasite commando group. It all fits into place doesn't it? The mystery parasites obviously have ships as they were setting up for an invasion. They obviously were immune to telepaths or their infiltration could not have been so successful, just coincidenc that the Breen are immune to telepaths? I think not.
Why did they all suddenly disappear when the 'Queen' died, they just couldn't live without her or they used mini self destruct devices just like the Breen hosts.
Communications to the parasite homeworld went deep into space, but if they came from so far away why attack the Federation, shouldn't they build up to something like that. Or maybe they weren't very far away and the communications were being sent to a deep space relay probe so if discovered the Federation would be looking far awy instead of next door.
And thats the my theory. Oh couple of other things, the parasites discovered showed great strenght, but even if you think Breen are only normal strength this is easily explained. The only parasites uncoverd were those infecting the highest members of starfleet, its probable the rank of the officers was an indication of the rank of the parasite and that highranked parasites would also be the oldest parasites and therefore the most addempt at manipulating their hosts bodies to increase stength etc. We don't know if all the parasites would display that ability.
The infiltrators also didn't wear suits like the Breen but they weren't infiltrating for that long so might not have needed to be refrigerated. Also possible that the parasites were using their energy and probably shortening their own lives to keep the host from deteriorating and stop people catching on. Something they otherwise wouldn't do and would simply switch to a new host when the other died.
The Breen as parasites might also explain the strange design of their ships which appear a bit organic and squidgy looking, the rumours about them using organic based ships could simply be be due to their organic looking design or it may refer to internal systems similar to voyagers 'gel pack' systems.
The rumours of cloaking devices could be true as they may have some devices taken from captured romulan ships. But may have never been able to replicate that technology.
What else... oh yes the Dominion. Why do the Breen and the Dominion seem to get along so well. Desperate times or do they actaully like each other, the Breen showed their willingness to fight and die for the cause making them similar to the Gem'Hadar, their also devious and untrustworthy like the Vorta, if parasites then they would also have much in common with the Founders.
They are terrified of humanoid races (the Breen with good cause since they have thousands of species being held in breeding camps) , they like to be in control, and they both consider themselves superior possibly due to being able to expand their experiences by changing their shape, the Founders literally and the parasites by switching hosts.
Did i mention the ship disabling weapon, is it just an accident that it works better against Romulans and Federation rather than Klingon, or is it because it was specifically designed to disable romulan and federation ships rather than klingon, and if i was a parasite i'd find it much easier to tackle a romulan or human than a Klingon.
Right think thats everything.. except the rumour that Breen tend to breed at a very young age which if true in the context above would take on a horrible new context, if its about the parasites its fine but if it refers to the hosts it could indicate the Breen are genetically modifying the captured hosts to allow for younger and therefore wuicker reproduction
.
Right now it is everything.. what you think?
