This is a list of mysteries that are still open at the end of Star Control II.


Why did the Melnorme's bridge turn purple?

The Melnorme offer to tell you this piece of information for 120,000 credits (on the PC version) or 12,000,000 credits (on the 3DO version and UQM), but it is impossible to gather this many credits.

From the #StarControl Efnet IRC chat of 1998-10-18 (Fwiffo is both Paul and Fred here):

"<Fwiffo> I promise here and now, that in our next SC project, we'll answer that Purple Bridge question to your ultimate satisfaction."


*What happened to the Androsynth? Are any still alive?

From a fan email with Fred Ford:

> Were ALL the Androsynth destroyed when the Orz came?
Perceptive lad. This was a leading plot candidate for our theoretical sequel.


Are there still Taalo alive?

From the #StarControl Efnet IRC chat of 1998-10-18 (Fwiffo is both Paul and Fred here):

<_Stilgar> <che`z`puf> Are the Taalo really dead, and when the Pkunk spoke of rocks that were awakened, did they mean the Taaolo?
<Fwiffo> The Taalo LIVE!


What are the Arilou's motives for messing with humans?

Did the Arilou interfere in the development of other races besides the Humans?

Who are They/Them?

Who or what are the Nnngn that the Arilou are chasing?

What is the history of the Arilou with the Orz?

Do the Orz have a special purpose for the Humans, as the Arilou have?

From the #StarControl Efnet IRC chat of 1998-10-18 (Fwiffo is both Paul and Fred here):

<Mephisto_> Fwiffo: What exactly did the Arilou *quickbabies* do to piss off the Orz so much?
<Fwiffo> The Arilou always *jumped in front*, which was both a physical taunt as well as a political one. They got to the humans first.


Where did the Orz come from?

What happened to the Precursors]?

From the #StarControl Efnet IRC chat of 1998-10-18 (Fwiffo is both Paul and Fred here):

<Fwiffo> In our rambling thoughts about SC3 we did seriously consider having the Orz assume a much larger and more ominous role, opposed to the return of the Precursors.


What is the purpose of the rainbow worlds?

What happened to the neo-Dnyarri?

How were the alien societies affected by the fall of the Ur-Quan?

The Battle Thralls

The Fallow Slaves

Other races

Are there Spathi still out there not under the Spathiwa slave shield?

Does the Black Spathi Squadron really exist?

Does the Spathi's Ultimate Evil really exist?

Are there any Ilwrath and/or Thraddash left after their war?

Is the Ultron still in working order?

Are the events in the outtakes with respect to the Ultron to be taken seriously?


Where are the new Shofixti settling?
