The race is treated as one character here but they already have an an entry on the Star Trek Species page. There's no point saying the same things twice so I'll move their tropes over there.
Changed line(s) 187,199 (click to see context) from:
* BizarreAlienBiology: They are able to communicate emotional states through a chemical compound that works regardless of species.
* DysonSphere: They have Dyson rings in their star system made from the same silicon-ellanium alloy that their [=DMA=] controller is made from.
* GoodCounterpart: Unknown Species 10-C are a collective of beings, not unlike The Borg or The Dominion. Unlike either one of them, who were a race of cyborgs bent on total galactic assimilation and a race of xenophobic conquerors respectively, the 10-C are simply an average group of beings with remarkably advanced technology, choosing to hide from the galaxy because of losing their homeworld to a disaster. They do cause destruction, but their DMA is no weapon; it's a mining device they don't realize is wiping out innocent life. By contrast, the Borg would happily assimilate any race that they thought would improve their collective consciousness, regardless of how the actual species felt, and The Dominion would take over any race of "solids" that stood in their way, and punish any form of resistance against them. What truly distinguishes the 10-C from the others is that when The Federation arrives to alert them of what has transpired, the 10-C, despite some initial communication difficulties, are eventually able to understand and work to rectify the damage. Compare that to The Borg or The Dominion, whom Starfleet wiped out and bested in the Dominion War respectively.
* HiveMind: The 10-C exist as one mind, not just many voices as one but seemingly no distinction between individuals and the whole. This is why they have trouble understanding the damage the DMA is causing, because a single lifeform being an individual is alien to them. The diplomats and the crew of the ''Discovery'' don't realize this until T'Rina performs a MindMeld.
* HomeworldEvacuation: Their (presumed) homeworld, a gas giant in extragalactic space, was wiped out by an asteroid bombardment in the 22nd century, killing those who couldn't evacuate in time.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: They're collectively horrified when they realize how much damage their DMA has caused.
* ObliviouslyEvil: As mentioned up in the Hive Mind entry, the 10-C exists as one mind, to the point where there is no distinction between individuals and the whole. Thus, they have no idea what they're doing is harming other life forms because, to them, the concept of individualism is alien to them.
* SmallUniverseAfterAll: A rare example for ''Star Trek''. Their homeworld, or at least their current residence, lies outside the galactic barrier, making it difficult to attempt FirstContact with them.
* StarfishAliens: The 10-C are gigantic, insectoid LivingGasbag aliens that live in gas giant planets and communicate emotional states with pheromones. No RubberForeheadAliens here!
* StealthInSpace: They've managed to cloak their entire solar system, which requires an insane amount of energy. Hence their need for boronite, which the DMA extracts from the Milky Way for their use.
* StrollingOnJupiter: Their ruined homeworld was a gas giant until it was bombarded by a swarm of asteroids, burning off much of the atmosphere and leaving the solid core exposed enough for humanoids to explore.
* SufficientlyAdvancedAlien: A {{reconstruction}}. While plenty of omnipotent, god-like aliens have appeared in ''Star Trek'', they're usually played for laughs or otherwise left behind at the end of the episode. 10-C, by contrast, are played for drama -- they are ''unbelievably'' advanced compared to the Federation and its neighbors, capable of [[StealthInSpace cloaking]] entire solar systems and deploying mining equipment that can strip-mine entire sectors of boronite on a whim. Part of the reason the galaxy votes against destroying the DMA is that they're terrified that 10-C might retaliate with their actual ''weapons''.
