Rihannsu	comment	A series of popular Star Trek novels by Diane Duane, focusing on the Romulans, or as they call themselves, the Rihannsu. The books fleshed out Rihannsu culture and history in some detail—and in a quite different direction than what ended up becoming canon.Following the disappearance of several Vulcan-crewed ships along the Romulan Neutral Zone, Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise is on patrol when he is contacted by a Romulan naval officer, Commander Ael i-Mhiessan t'Rllaillieu, whom he's fought before. Faced with orders to carry out a war plan against the Federation which she considers dishonorable, she has chosen to defect to the Federation with her crew instead, and hopes to get Kirk's help to foil the plan.The books are: My Enemy, My Ally (1984) The Romulan Way (1987, with Peter Morwood) Swordhunt (2000) Honor Blade (2000; originally meant to be the second half of Swordhunt, but Divided for Publication due to Executive Meddling) The Empty Chair (2006)The first four books were re-released in Omnibus form as The Bloodwing Voyages, with some minor Orwellian Retcons to clean up internal continuity and with books three and four merged back together. While some of the events of this series were Outdated by Canon by later developments in the live-action canon* In particular the details given in The Romulan Way of the Romulans' First Contact with humanity were overwritten by ENT: "Minefield", and thus the subsequent relaunch took the Earth-Romulan War in a completely different direction. Also, per Star Trek: Nemesis Remus is a barren, Tidally Locked Planet and the Remans are a different species, whereas in this series the Remans are Romulans and Remus is mostly an agri-world., much of the background worldbuilding done in this series was borrowed by the writing team of Star Trek Online, and the later showrunners on Star Trek: Enterprise did apparently really like the novels and wanted to try and bring the show-Roms and novel Rihannsu closer... in the seasons that ended up getting canned.

Rihannsu / int_1116591	comment	Best Friends-in-Law: Averted to tragic effect. Ael is close friends with Chief Surgeon t’Hrienteh. It turns out that t’Hrienteh was in love with Ael’s son Tafv, and intended to marry him… but after Tafv’s death, t’Hrienteh vowed revenge on Ael and began acting as a spy for her enemies, ending in Ael killing her as well.

Rihannsu / int_12acfd9	comment	Conflicting Loyalties: Ael tries not to put her people in such situations, considering it a matter of honor not to put them in situations they might not be able to handle. However, in the first book, Nniol has to choose between family loyalty and his loyalty to his commander, when Bloodwing and Enterprise face the ship his sister is serving on. He chooses his commander… and is disowned by his family as a result, except for one brother who holds that he made the most honorable choice, and that their sister would've done the same. Defied by the Romulan government in The Empty Chair. The Romulan rebels note that the force sent to crush the rebellion on Artaleirh won't have any locals in the fleet due to distrust for their loyalties. Fortunately, according to Uhura this also means they can't understand the rebels' communications: despite being broadcast unencrypted, the local language has drifted so far from Hearthworld Rihan as to be virtually unintelligible.

Rihannsu / int_12f078f3	comment	Artistic License – Linguistics: The section of The Romulan Way on how the Romulans created Rihan by going back to Old High Vulcan and aging it in a different direction mistakenly refers to Basque as a Romance language. If Duane had said Spanish or Italian she would've been correct, but the Basque language is famously a linguistic isolate with no known source or sister languages.

Fearing exposure, she deepened her cover and stopped sending reports to Starfleet. . . and forgot to start sending them again when the danger had passed. She suffers another after first meeting McCoy and being forced to recall her human nature, resulting in extreme cognitive dissonance. And some vomit.

According to Ael, the Romulan Grand Fleet once openly placed "political" or "loyalty" officers on ships to ensure that captains and crews obeyed the leadership. They suffered such a high rate of "accidents" that officers would rather be demoted than take up the post. These days, the identities of political officers are a secret.

Rihannsu / int_5d3e7c6	comment	Kangaroo Court: In The Romulan Way, McCoy is tried before the Romulan Senate for spying and the verdict and death sentence are foregone conclusions. There's a couple of twists though: First off, in theory, to even bring the case to trial, the prosecution is supposed to have ironclad proof of guilt beforehand, since under Romulan law an acquittal results in the prosecutors suffering the defendant's would-be fate for wasting the court's time. In the second twist, McCoy uses his Right of Statement (granted by Romulan law and allowed to reinforce the impression of legality) for an old-school filibuster, mocking the situation (even stating that the Klingons would have given him a fair trial) and ruminating for hours on end about topics as far afield as barbecue, until The Cavalry, including a Horta (who, as a silicate-based lifeform invulnerable to disruptors, the Romulans mistake for an Eldritch Abomination - one of their Elements incarnate) and Commander Ael, who humiliate the corrupted Romulan leadership and sets in motion a revolution. Normal Romulan trials subvert this, however. The burden of proof is on the defendant, but that's because to even hold the trial the prosecution had to gather enough evidence to get a conviction. If they get it wrong, the prosecution will receive the maximum sentence for the charges in question, up to and including execution.

The best example of this trope comes from the East Continent of ch'Havran, whose nations descend from from groups of people who were forced to go on the Journey against their will and subsequently drew lots to settle in an isolated, inhospitable area, where they had little contact with the rest of their world, let alone ch'Rihan. At their best, they overthrew the Ruling Queen and then didn't set themselves up as tyrants in her place. At their worst, they’re primarily responsible for Hellguard—the horrific colony world where Saavik was born—as well as numerous atrocities in the first war with the Federation.

Rihannsu / int_8a0d290b	comment	Conlang: The Rihannsu language, on both sides of the Fourth Wall. Out of universe, it’s a partial conlang created by Diane Duane (originally she was going to do a Romulan dictionary to match the old Klingon one, but that project wasn't successful). Fandom has taken it and run with it, with the Imperial Romulan Language Institute being the main online source. In universe, it was created by the Declared when they left Vulcan, as they wanted to leave behind as much as they could of their homeworld. The discussion of this contains Artistic License – Linguistics. The Rihannsu language was made by going back to Old Vulcan and modifying the roots; the result is said to be as different from the modern Vulcan language as "Spanish is from Basque and their parent, Latin." Latin spawned a large number of descendants, the Romance languages; Spanish is indeed one of them. But Basque not only isn't, it's (famously) a "linguistic isolate" that isn't related to any other known language!

Suddenly, Kirk orders to open fire with everything they have. . . right at Bloodwing, to the consternation of Bloodwing crew on the Enterprise bridge, thinking Kirk's taking an opportunity to backstabber his best enemy. Ael, aboard Bloodwing, has apparently had the same thought, as she opens fire straight at Enterprise. . . and their combined firepower meets in the middle, obliterating the cloaked Romulan ship hiding between them.

And then you get to the point where they lack the concept of doing anything for someone else’s good- you do things for the good of your own honor. If you’re competent about it, the action ought to benefit everybody’s honor, but you’re supposed to be thinking of your own. There's also a fair amount of casual Fantastic Racism directed at everyone from the Federation to the Romulans who live on Remus. Case in point; during her meeting with the triad, Ael describes the horrific things the Rihan at the Levaeri V installation are doing to captured Vulcans. McCoy is literally trembling with fury and says, "This is monstrous, Commander". Ael agrees but then sets McCoy a bit aback by wondering what honor there can be in torturing helpless prisoners - true enough, but not quite exactly what McCoy had in mind.

Averted with Klingon ships: the ships can outrun the Enterprise and the guns are top-notch, but the hulls are badly built by the lowest bidder with substandard parts, something that irked the Rihannsu when they were duped into buying a number of them per year. This makes the new Rihan warbirds even cooler, as they were based on these lemons and yet manage to excel.

The inhabitants of ch'Havran are called Havrannsu.

Rihannsu / int_d9e9ad7e	comment	In The Romulan Way, McCoy is tried before the Romulan Senate for spying and the verdict and death sentence are foregone conclusions. There's a couple of twists though: First off, in theory, to even bring the case to trial, the prosecution is supposed to have ironclad proof of guilt beforehand, since under Romulan law an acquittal results in the prosecutors suffering the defendant's would-be fate for wasting the court's time. In the second twist, McCoy uses his Right of Statement (granted by Romulan law and allowed to reinforce the impression of legality) for an old-school filibuster, mocking the situation (even stating that the Klingons would have given him a fair trial) and ruminating for hours on end about topics as far afield as barbecue, until The Cavalry, including a Horta (who, as a silicate-based lifeform invulnerable to disruptors, the Romulans mistake for an Eldritch Abomination - one of their Elements incarnate) and Commander Ael, who humiliate the corrupted Romulan leadership and sets in motion a revolution.

Terise/Arrhae has a serial case of this, with her name changing as her situation in life does. Terise Haleakala-LoBrutto becomes Arrhae ir-Mnaeha when she went undercover as Rihannsu slave, then gained a House-name when her new owner freed her (becoming Arrhae ir-Mnaeha t'Khellian) and finally she is granted an entirely new new House-name when she's promoted to Senator as Arrhae i-Khellian t'Llhweiir.

Arrhae is a Federation deep-cover agent. Other examples are Vaebn tr’Lhoell, now deceased, and Ffairrl, Arrhae’s steward on Gorget, who's another altered human.
