TELLARITES
Tellarite
Federation Member
Description Humanoid, Bipedal
Size Medium
Skin Pigment Pink
Hair Varies
Distinguishing Features Snout like nose, very portly by Terran standards.
Series TOS: "Journey to Babel"
Planet of Origin Tellus
Quadrant Alpha (assumed)
Background One of the founding members of the Federation.  In 2267 Opposed the entry of Coridan into the Federation.
Editors Notes Tellus has a thinner atmosphere than Earth, which led to overdeveloped nasal openings, similar in appearance to the snouts of Terran swine.  Tellarites take immediate strong offense to such comparisons.  They have better hearing than normal, and night vision.  They are suspicious, argumentative and brash, by Terran standards.  Those who trust too much or give in too easily are considered weak fools in their society, thus they make poor diplomats, but make good engineers, scientists and terraformers, and make excellent legal representatives.  They tend to dislike physical confrontation.
Tellarites are very fond of good food and drink - and a lot of it.  Fortunately, alcohol has little adverse effect on them - it only makes them even more stubborn.  Nevertheless, they are capable of going twice as long without food or water as the average Terran, since they carry an extra abdominal roll of fatty tissue.  This abdominal tissue makes them look portly, but such is natural for a Tellarite, and they can, in extreme cases, live off of this fatty tissue for quite a while.  Generally, though, they'd rather not skip meals.

Distinguishing Features ?
Series TOS: "The Tholian Web", DS9: "Life Support", "Call to Arms"
Planet of Origin Tholia
Quadrant Alpha
Background First contact occurred when the USS Defiant was trapped in interspace in 2268, the Tholians accused the original Enterprise of violating a territorial annex of the Tholian Assembly while trying to rescue it.  The ongoing conflict with the Tholians flared up again in 2353 when the Tholians attacked and nearly destroyed a Federation starbase, with the loss of nearly all personnel.  Civilian advisor Kyle Riker was the only survivor in the incident.  Conflict with the Tholians continued well into the 24th century, and simulated Tholian battles were part of the StarFleet Academy curriculum as recently as 2355, when Will Riker was able to calculate a sensory blind spot in a simulated Tholian vessel, and use that to his advantage.  Tensions remained sufficiently high that Ambassador K'Ehleyr, in 2367, feared a Klingon civil war would eventually involve the Tholians, although diplomatic relations between the Tholians and the Federation were established.  In 2371, a Tholian ambassador visited Deep Space 9.  A Tholian observer was present at the ill-fated Antwerp Conference on Earth on stardate 49170.65
Editors Notes Civilization known for its punctuality and highly territorial nature.  Tholians have only been seen in one episode, TOS: "The Tholian Web, and even that was just a few shots on the Enterprise main viewer.  Those shots which used visual effects and a puppet designed by Mike Minor, seemed to show the faceted head of Commander Loskene.  It was not, however, made clear if that was indeed Loskene's head, or if it was simply a helmet.  It was also not clear if Loskene's body below the viewer's frame was humanoid or something more exotic.  They utilize an odd form of weapon known as the Tholian Web.  It is an Energy field used by the Tholians to entrap a disabled enemy spacecraft.  A tractor field is spun by two Tholian ships that remain outside of weapons range, encircling the target vessel.  Upon completion of the web, the field is contracted destroying the ship within.  While attempting to rescue the USS Defiant in 2268, the Enterprise nearly fell victim to a Tholian web.  The Tholians create a fine silk fabric that is very difficult to obtain outside of the Tholian Assembly.  The Tholians signed the non-agression pact with the Dominion in 2372.

Distinguishing Features Small "puffballs"
Series TOS: "The Trouble With Trbbles", DS9: "Trials and Tribblations"
Planet of Origin ?
Quadrant Alpha/Beta
Background First Federation contact with the species came on the spacestation K-7 when a trader known as Cyrano Jones sold some to Enterprise crew members.  Soon the station and the Enterprise was overrun by the creatures.  The Tribbles helped Captain Kirk expose a Klingon spy attempting to poison a shipment of grain.  The Klingons in response deemed the Tribbles as enemies and exterminated the species as a whole.  The creatures re-appeared in the 24th Century on the Federation Space station DS9.  Currently under investigation.
Editors Notes They are warm-blooded bisexual mammals capable of reproducing at an incredible rate.  It would seem that they are born pregnant.  They will not have the energy to reproduce without food, however.  For some unknown reason, Tribbles do not like Klingons, and will shriek loudly if even exposed to one.  Tribbles will return the affection shown them by humanoids by somehow empathically projecting feelings of peace and relaxation.  They live about as long as the average well-kept Terran guinea pig.

Planet of Origin Trill
Quadrant Alpha (Beta?)
Background Trill humanoids are very interested in the welfare of their symbiont.  They even enter into contests from which the winners become the next class of people honored to become hosts.  Trill humanoids are very honored by their selection to become hosts.  Some potential hosts who do not make the cut consider suicide.
Editors Notes Trill are a symbiotic species consisting of a humanoid host and a worm-like symbiont which lives in the abdomen of the host. The worm-like symbiont is extremely long-lived.  The host does not lose any of their memories, and they are capable of accessing memories of the symbiont.  If the host body is dying, the symbiont is transferred to another host.  After four days, the merger between the host and the symbiont is permanent.  Should the host body die without removing the symbiont within 96 hours, the symbiont will also die.  It cannot survive absolute destruction of the host body.  All skills are transferred to the new host, but are based off of the new host's physical and mental abilities.  Occasionally, Trill symbionts may be damaged by Transporter use, but most Trill do not seem to be bothered by beaming.
