Description
An elusive ship of Borg origin. Virtually every encounter has been brief, due to the ships immediate disappearance upon being discovered.

The longest encounter was by a Romulan vessel while cloaked. They managed to send a team aboard, that reported an odd lack of activity aboard and an extremely high number of data nodes. When they got to the centre they reported that there was no vinculum, nothing to link the ship to the rest of the collective. Then when the team were ordered to return, they found themselves unable, not because of any interreference, they just refused...before stating back to their commander: "Resistance is Futile, we must protect the collective". The ship then just vanished without a trace, which the Romulans concluded meant it must have cloaking technology to hide it's getaway.
Reviewing the logs from the team, it was concluded that these ships are some sort of repository, a backup for the collective, containing everything they know, but without a direct link to prevent contamination. They also concluded that nobody should board these ships in future, as it appears they may be filled with airborne nanoprobes, designed to assimilate any would be intruders, such that they become part of the security of the ship.
