Info,
Below is info on some Alien Races.


HIROGEN
The Hirogen are an extremely aggressive race from the Delta Quadrant. They can reach the height of over 9 feet and are easily identified by their body armor. The entire Hirogen culture is based on "The Hunt". The Hirogen prey on weaker (and sometimes even more powerful) life forms and usually eat their victims or practice some sort of crude taxidermy on them. The Hirogen owned a subspace array spanning from the Delta to Gamma Quadrant. This array was powered by small quantum singularities (black holes) till it was later overloaded by Voyager. One Alpha-Hirogen was worried that the "Hunt" would lead to the its species own extinction and felt that if Voyager's holographic technology could be harnessed, the entire ship could be used as a holo-hunting ground. His original intentions failed after he was killed, but the Voyager crew was able to trade holographic technology in exchange for the Hirogens' absence aboard their ship.
The Cardassians
Five hundred years ago, the Cardassians were a peaceful and very artistic culture and were known for their great archeology and architecture. However, a serious food shortage cased the military to take control, and has been in power ever since. Because of this military control, the Union has taken on a different approach. Instead of taking pride in their architectural mastery and a peaceful life, they took part in raids and smuggling. They have even gone as far as annexing a foreign governments' space.

The Borg
An incredibly powerful race of cybernetically enhanced humanoids from the Delta Quadrant. Soon after birth each Borg is fitted with various cybernetic devices giving them great technological and tactical abilities. Different Borg's are built for different functions, warrior, navigator, repairman, or leader. Each Borg is linked into a collective mind where the concept of the individual was meaningless. The Borg are highly adaptable, any tactic that works on them will only work once, as they will immediately develop a countermeasure. The Borg exist entirely to assimilate other races into the Borg collective. The Borg are responsible for the destruction of many Federation neutral zone outposts, several colonies, and 40 starships at the Battle of Wolf 359. A single Borg has pasty white skin with black and dark grey cybernetic implants covering most of their body. They are the greatest strategic threat to the Federation today.
The Dominion/Breen/JEM'HADAR
A highly powerful race in the Alpha Quadrant. Little is known about the Breen's technology or anotomy. When off their homeworld the Breen wear refridgeration suits. It was first believed that the Breen homeworld was a an icey wasteland but it was recently learned that the planet's environment is considered to be quite comfortable among humanoid life. At the moment it is a mystery why the Breen wear the refirdgeration suits. The Breen language is incomprehendable to Federation universal translators, but with certain adjustments Cardassian UV's can understand Breen dialect. The Breen are considered to be a race of warriors by the Klingon empire.
JEM'HADAR
Genetically created reptilian humanoids from the Gamma Quadrant. They are infamous for the cruelty, brutality, and machine-like efficency. Their reputation is best summed in a Gamma quadrant quote "...they call in the Jem'Hadar, then you die." With endurance, strength, and a limited natural cloaking ability, they are an extreme threat in hand-to-hand combat. Created to be physically superior to almost all humanoids, they have but a single flaw. They were genetically addicted to "Ketricel White" a narcotic-protein drug to ensure their loyalty. They are almost always accompanied by Vorta who act as overseers.


The Ferengi
Greedy humanoid race first encountered in 2364 in the Delphi Ardu system. Although several deep space incidents occurred before, this was the first face-to-face encounter. Possessing a rigid and inflexible code requiring males to relentlessly seek profit while females are left naked and submissive. They appear as short humanoids with skin tones ranging from dull yellow to dark brown. The males have charactaristically very large ears while the females have extremely small ears. Coming from a political alliance just beyond Klingon space, they have no firm alliances and prefer to maintain buisness with all sides. The Klingons detest the Ferengi, however and embargo them. Some rogue Ferengi's pursue profit as pirates. This is legal only through a loophole in their laws. Ferengi's have no telepathic abilities and cannot be scanned because of their four lobed brains.
KLINGONS
Strong humanoids from Qo'nos. Dark skinned with a limited exoskeleton, most notable on the forehead. Klingon physiology incorporates multiple redundancies for virtually all vital organs. Their blood is a light purple fluid using several lanthanide metals as it's base. The Klingons have a close biochemical similarity to the Romulans and Vulcans. Klingon culture is highly militaristic culture based around principles of honor. Klingon sciences are highly advanced in weapons and spaceflight but are very primitive in terms of medical or social sciences.
VULCANS
Race of humanoids from the planet of the same name. From a society based on total logic and absolute repression of all emotions, Vulcans often seem cold and machine like by other species. Prominient members of the Federation, Vulcans are known for their advances in computer science as well as their excellent negotiation skills, making them ideal diplomats. Vulcans have limited telepathic abilites but are reserved for personal use or when other methods of communication have failed. Physically, Vulcans resemble Terrans except for elongated ears and a slightly green complexion resulting from their copper based blood. Vulcans are quite strong and have remarkable endurance.
The Romulans
Humanoids from twin worlds of Romulus and Remus. When the Vulcan race adopted logic and rejected violence, those that disagreed with Surak's philosophy boarded several large colonization ships and sought a new world. Arriving at the class M world of Romulus and it's trojan class K twin Remus, the Romulan Star Empire was born. Romulans are very similar to Vulcans and can only be distinguished by a detailed genetic scan. The Romulan wars between Earth and Romulus in the 2150's lead to the formation of the United Federation of Planets. The Romulans emerged from a long absence in 2364 and are a leading threat to the Federation today. The Romulans are the inventors of the Cloaking devices used in the Alpha and Beta quadrants. The Romulans have a bipolar personality, very caring one minute, ruthless the next. The Romulans have had a relationship with the Klingons ranging from military alliance to open warfare and back in just a few years time.

The Bajorans
An ancient race of humanoids from Bajor III. The Bajorans had a thriving primitive culture in the arts and sciences 25,000 years ago. They slowly developed space travel and colonized their system and several nearby star systems. Almost identical to Terrans except for distintive nose ridges and minor differences in the female reproductive system. The Bajoran race was conquered by the Cardassian Empire in 2328 and formally annexed 2339. Bajoran freedom fighters repulsed the Cardassians in early 2369. Soon afterwards the Bajoran wormhole was discovered in the Denorious Belt. With the enormous economic boon of the only known stable wormhole, the rebuiliding of Bajor has been accellerated.

Species 8472
Designated species 8472 by the Borg, their origin seems to be a region filled with organic fluid (fluidic space), entered across an interdimensional rift. They are very fierce by nature and their technology is biogenetically engineered. According to the Borg, they are superior to any other species encountered by them. Species 8472 have the ability to copy humanoid DNA and morph into the hosts body. They have 5 sexes with different mating rituals for each combination. The only known weapon against them are borg "nanoprobes" reprogrammed by the EMH on Voyager. These were encased in the ship's photon torpedoes and used successfully against the aliens' bio ships.
