Andorian	An Andorian's azure blue countenance, topped by a shock of albino white hair and blue, knobbed antennae. Aggressive by nature, the Andorians' warrior prowess is often underestimated due to their slender bodies and soft, lisping voices. Home World: Andorian home planet is Epsilon Indi VIII(Andor), a star in the constellation of Indus the Indian (as seen from Earth).
Bajoran	The Bajorans are a deeply spiritual and cultural race. Jewelry plays a large symbolic role for the Bajorans, most of whom wear an ornamental earring in their right ear. Many Bajoran customs have had to be forgotten about in order to mix in with other cultures after being forced from their home-world. Some Bajoran customs include the pronunciation of their family name followed by his or her given name. Many Bajorans have abandoned this custom to make life easier. Home World: The planet Bajor in the Alpha Quadrant
Benzite	A recent member of the Federation, Benzar is similar to most class M worlds except it has significant quantities of methane, thus Benzite's off their homeworld require a small device worn over their face to supply additional gasses. Most Benzites look similar and Benzites from the same geostructure appear identical to all but other Benzites. Benzite's are known for innovative computer designs and programming techniques Benzites show a sincere but sometimes annoying eagerness to please that can be perceived as superiority. Like the Klingons, Homeworld: Benzar in the Alpha Quadrant
Betazoid	A Federation race basically humanoid except for the solid-colored dark pupils and mental power of telepathy within the race. They also have varying empathic links to other races. Their empathic/telepathic contact leads to a natural trait of complete honesty, somewhat troubling to outworlders when practiced fully. The telepathy is not inborn but almost always comes on with adolescence. There are also cases of over-empathic abilities, and those who suffer from such extremes must be counseled and trained to avoid insanity, but are almost always affected throughout their life. Betazoids are actually uncomfortable around those, like the Ferengi and Breen, whose minds they cannot read. Their mind contains the paracortex, their telepathic lobe, which is highly capable of recovery from injury, and includes the "metaconsciousness," or a trauma filter; psilosynine is the neurotransmitter involved. In addition, their REM sleep frequency is different than for most humanoids. Home World: Betazed in the Alpha Quadrant
Bolian	The Bolians are recognizable by their blue or bluish-grey skin, and by the raised ridge which runs up the middle of their faces. The males of this species are bald, but the females grow hair similar to Humans on their heads. In addition, they also have longer ears than humans The tend to be friendly and affable and science minded, tending towards the 'soft' sciences: Psychology, Sociology. Some of the Federations greatest administrators were Bolian. Home World: Bolarus IX. in the Alpha Quadrant.
Borg	Generally humanoid in appearance, the Borg implant themselves with cybernetic devices, or "implants" granting them superior technological and combat capabilities. Different Borg are equipped with different hardware to perform specific work tasks. The Borg exhibit a high degree of intelligence, granting them vast adaptability in their tactics. The Borg operate by conquering entire worlds, through a process known as "assimilation". It is important to note that the Borg do not select only those worlds which will augment their "perfection", they simply destroy the civilizations they encounter. Individual members of assimilated races are implanted with sophisticated cybernetic implants, permitting each individual to perform a specific task as required by the Collective. Thousands of species have been conquered in this fashion. Home World: Home World Unknown. The Borg are believed to originate from the Delta Quadrant of the Galaxy
Breen	A powerful and mysterious Alpha Quadrant species, the Breen are one of the very few major species who have evolved on a non-class M world. The Breen homeworld has an average temperature of approximately 220 Kelvin, a record low for any inhabited planet. They have evolved with a unique physiology in order to cope with this ultra-cold environment; although they breathe a fairly standard oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere at close to normal pressure, the Breen have no blood or other liquid circulatory system. Instead, their body is permeated by millions of tiny hollow tubules which are open to the skin. These allow oxygen to be carried directly into the body; once there it is absorbed directly through the skin to be used by the internal organs. A similar process carries the waste gasses back out again. Home World: Unknown
Cardassian	The Cardassians are a humanoid race with prominent bony ridges. A Starfleet Captain, Edward Jellico, described them as: "Like timber wolves, predators. They're bold in large numbers, and cautious by themselves. They have a distinctive need to establish a dominant position in any social gathering" Home World: Cardassia Prime, or just Cardassia.
Deltan	Members of the Federation of over a century. Deltan's have characteristically little body hair, especially a bald head. Deltans have an inherent talent for mathematics and geometry. The Deltan race has a very highly developed sexuality and some form of sexual expression is inherent in most aspects of Deltan culture. Deltans are the one known humanoid race in which pheromones play a major role. Deltan pheromones cause powerful sexual stimulation in almost all humanoid species. Deltans have limited telepathic abilities Home World: Delta IV in the Alpha Quadrant
Dopterian	Semi-Humanoid race from somewhere in Ferengi space. They appear as short humanoids with skin tones ranging from dull yellow to dark brown. They have a cranial ridge extending from the lower rear base of the skull and extending up through the upper rear part of the skull. Dopterians are distant relatives of the Ferengi, theory holds that Ferengi proto-humanoids were transplanted to the Dopterian homeworld. Dopterians have no telepathic abilities and cannot be scanned because of their four lobed brains, a similarity to their Ferengi cousins. Homeworld Unknown
El Aurian	El Aurians are a very rare and mysterious race about whom very little is known. Comparable to Terrans. Their homeworld was probably somewhere on the boarders of the Beta and Delta quadrant. Their homeworld was destroyed by the Borg. The few surviving displaced El Aurians have found their way into the Federation and the ranks of Starfleet, although seldom ever in positions of importance. They seem to prefer to operate quietly in support positions. They appear to be natural lore-keepers, and use their phenomenal lifespan and memories to collect the stories and life experiences of various sentient beings. They are a highly personably and empathic race, and as such are very willing to help other sentients work out their problems, especially if the end result is a good story for the "good listener" ! Although they can fight when necessary, El Aurians are by and large docile people. Home World: None: Destroyed
Elasian	A fierce humanoid warrior culture at war for years with the neighboring planet of Troyius until both cultures achieved the technology necessary to wipe both themselves and their opponents out. The Federation has sent of the negotiators in order to set end to the conflict, that had been able to combine a wedding between the daughter of the ruling family of Elas, Elaan, with the governor of Troyius. The culture is ruled by a strict nobility structure and worship a a code of a warrior poet. Homeworld Planet Elas in the Tellun system
