Alpha Red

Alpha Red was a clandestine experimental research unit primarily within the New Republic Intelligence Service but also later within its successor agency, the Galactic Alliance Intelligence Service. Formed from members of the Intelligence Service's other secret unit, Alpha Blue, along with several Chiss scientists, Alpha Red was tasked with researching the extra-galactic biology of the Yuuzhan Vong. They were to determine weaknesses in the Vong's biological systems and develop methods to exploit those weaknesses. The team was led by former Alpha Blue scientist Joi Eicroth and its staff included a group of Chiss biotechnicians who worked alongside Intelligence scientists. They were able to create a dangerous toxin, also named Alpha Red.
