Vulcan/Romulan History
« on: 24 May 2009 05:20 PM »
Hello, I wonder if there is any information about Vulcan/Romulan history before the races split. I know it was endless wars, but is there anything interesting? It would be cool if it is pretty open because I have RPG ideas.

I kind of picture their Pre-Industrial Days as similar to the Elves in Tolkien. Beautiful cities and grand victories, only to be turned to ruins and horrible defeats.

Cleo, try the Star Trek: Vulcan's Soul series written by Josepha Sherman and Susan Schwartz. It details the Romulan exodus from Vulcan. Other than that, there is one or two Enterprise episodes dealing with Surak that I remember, but that's it.

There's also some good stuff in the Vulcan sourcebook for Last Unicorn Games' Star Trek RPG - The Way of Kolinahr.  Not been able to get hold of the Romulan one, but I'm guessing that'll have some potentially useful stuff as well...

I want to thank you all for your help. I made the thread on the official forums, but it's not getting any bites. I guess the next step is to find out how to run general Star Trek RPGs. It feels totally different from the Final Fantasy style games I love.

Clicky.

I think I may have have seen a .pdf file of this.  But it's probably the best Romulan source material out there.

That was the Romulan one I referred to, Kel :) Sadly, it's a little out of my price range from Amazon, it seems...
