I suggest that Weyoun's concept of cold may be different than other species' concepts. In fact, there is nothing to say that the Vorta's original homeworld had a temperate climate. There's no reason why all the other races would've talked of the Breen planet as being cold if there was no evidence of that. Also, why would they wear refrigeration suits on other planets? A Trill, for example, may think that the Breen homeworld was mild; in contrast, a Cardassian or a Klingon would probably describe it as freezing. zsingaya 18:24, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- He was speaking to a cardassian. Jaf 20:04, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)Jaf
- The Vorta (like the Jem H'Dar) are genetically engineered and like the Jem H'Dar they seem quite comfortable in most planetary/starship environments. This suggests that a temperate environment would be equivalent to a warm Earth or a cool Cardassia/Vulcan. I think Weyoun's statement is valid. --Filth 02:42, 22 Aug 2005 (UTC)
- The use of refridgeration suits does not necessarily mean a cold homeworld (although that is a logical conclusion). The Breen may have special medical requirements when not on their homeworld, we dont know ANYTHING about them! Maybe this is how they prevent their bodily fluids from evapourating in atsmospheric compositions/pressures different from that on Breen. If they contained alot of ethanol or alcohol they would be waging a constant battle against dehydration in an Earth-type environment. Where-as in a denser atsmosphere or one with higher concetrations of these substances it would not be a problem. This doesnt necessarily mean it's colder. --Filth 02:53, 22 Aug 2005 (UTC)
A suggestion : Breen may, like Remus, be tidally locked, with always the same face turned toward its sun (like is the Moon toward Earth).
Then, one face of the planet would be frozen, the other would be burning, with a tiny temperate zone on the fringe. Breens would of course live on the cold face.
Vortas are not very honest, veyons may considers this make the planet as a whole "temperate". --Rami 21:37, 17 Dec 2005 (UTC)
What was up with replacing the second part of that note? I took it out on an ip edit, seems stupid to list one possibility from the trek universe, we could be there all day listing possiblities. Jaf 02:27, 6 February 2006 (UTC)Jaf
Revert
I removed the following:
- However, the planet that the Cardassians had an embassy on could very well be a planet which the Breen simply chose to be their homeworld. It is possible that Weyoun was also sent to a different world as the Breen didn't want any non-Breen on their true homeworld.
I think we should just state the facts and let the reader decide, not plant one writers interpretation of the facts as if it were "true" background information. --Alan del Beccio 04:10, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Never turn your back on the Breen
What if the planet the Breen put the cardassian enbassy on wasn't really their homeworld. The Breen were so secretive its plausible they lied about the location of their homewaorld and the suits are part of the deception. Weyoun seemed quite sure that the planet had a pleasent climate. Also, considering how much better the Breen/Dominion relationship was compared to their relationship with the cardassians I think I would put more stock in dominion intellligence.--Illwill 04:56, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
- See above. --Alan del Beccio 05:01, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
A valid point considering that the Founders did something similar when the Tal Shiar and the Obsidian order attacked their homeworld. Depending on how soon the Dominion began spying on the Alpha quadrant powers, it's quite possible that they were inspired by the Breen. The suits may also be more then just part of the deception. They could be used to compensate for any physical weaknesses, or at least enhance their strength enough to challenge a Klingon, as demonstrated when Worf and Ezri Dax were captured by the Breen.
