 Star Trek: The Genesis Wave
comment
A series of books in the Star Trek Novel Verse. They're set in the late 24th century, about a year after the end of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, but featuring the crew of Star Trek: The Next Generation and building on Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Originally two books, a third novel was then released (usually considered a lot weaker) and a tie-in entitled Genesis Force was later written.The titular Genesis Wave is a weapon of mass destruction based upon the infamous Genesis device from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, which is now being used by a race of mysterious aliens to reconfigure entire planets into potential colonies. Basically a Star Trek Disaster Movie.

Terraform:The Genesis Wave terraformed - more accurately Lomarformed - dozens of planets pretty much instantly. The problem is that many still had people on them at the time...

Gone Horribly Wrong: The chromasynthesis technology Regent Karuw was hoping would "restore" Aluwna and undo the damage inflicted by the Genesis Wave. It ends up causing almost as much damage as the wave, in relative if not absolute terms.

Teleporter Accident
 Star Trek: The Genesis Wave / int_309c05ec
comment
Teleporter Accident: In Genesis Force, the Aluwnans manage to save 10% of their population from the wave by storing them as transporter patterns in a series of satellites. When it comes to rematerializing them, the process is delayed when one individual comes out as a bloody heap of flesh - contaminants in the system were responsible.

If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!
 Star Trek: The Genesis Wave / int_554063c6
comment
If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!: Played with. The Bolian colonists on Myrmidon fight the Lomarians in the planet's terraformed forests by setting the trees alight, becoming frenzied and desperate. Mr. Mot sadly reflects that they've sunk to the level of the enemy: single-mindedly destroying an entire environment and those who call it home. However, while he acknowledges that they've become "just like" the foe, and is saddened by it, he doesn't actually condemn his people or say they were wrong. In this case, at least, becoming "like him" is seen as a sad necessity, for all that Mot agrees with the trope.

Hostile Terraforming: The Wave is designed to do this, transforming planets into new homes for Lomarians, ie swampy hellholes. They even go as far as to program their own genetic profile into the genesis matrix, combining colonization with reproduction by having new Lomarians spontaneously generated on transformed worlds.

Puppeteer Parasite: The Lomarian moss creatures use other beings as mounts, and control them through a Mind Control fungus. They usually make use of animals, but sapient beings like Humanoids will do...though as it turns out the Lomarians who actually stole the device were trying to avoid that on their new worlds.

Anti-Villain: It's eventually realized that the Lomarians who stole the Genesis Device aren't Galactic Conquerors but desperate survivors trying very hard to avoid extinction by any means necessary. They also deliberately avoided creating other forms of sapient life on their new worlds to avoid the power-madness that destroyed their old one.

Elaborate Underground Base

comment
Elaborate Underground Base: The Lomarians (the Plant Aliens responsible for unleashing the wave) have one. It's justified in that the ecological devastation on Lomar has forced their people underground.

Chekhov's Gunman: Stephen Klisiewicz, a character whose name is attached to the Genesis Report in book one, later shows up in Star Trek: Vanguard, a series which features the initial discovery of what eventually becomes genesis technology.

comment
Heroic Second Wind: Maltz has spent the last century or so since the original Genesis crisis brooding over his dishonor, but the realization that Genesis has been recreated inspires him to get back into action and once again actively seek to reclaim his lost honor.

Swamps Are Evil: All the planets hit by the Genesis Wave are reformatted into copies of Lomar at its prime-wet, muddy, heavily jungled Death Worlds filled with both hungry predators and body-stealing Lomarians.

comment
Fantastic Caste System: On Aluwna, genetics determines status, with women of the upper class taking multiple husbands supposedly to prevent overpopulation, but clearly in fact to prevent lower class women producing "genetically inferior" babies.

Blame Game
 Star Trek: The Genesis Wave / int_f844a17c
comment
Blame Game: Angry survivors of affected worlds need to find someone to blame. A particularly good example is Regent Karuw in Genesis Force, who berates Leah Brahms for being a scientist in the employ of the Federation. She assumes Brahms was one of the people involved in creating genesis technology. Brahms calls her out on it:

Doomy Dooms of Doom: Krussel's method of informing his fellows of a supposed threat from the Genesis Wave is to cry "DOOM!" at the top of his lungs.

Everything Trying to Kill You: A common trait of the swamplands left in the wave's wake, a consequence of its insanely over-active effects.
