Spock (Mirror)
Spock (Mirror) (TOS-39)
Spock served as the science officer aboard the I.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 under Captain Pike.[3] In 2265, he conspired with Commander James T. Kirk to distract and misdirect Pike, allowing Kirk to carry out a plot to assassinate Pike. When Kirk became captain of the Enterprise, he rewarded Spock’s loyalty by naming him first officer.[4]

Son’a
The Son’a were a technologically advanced humanoid race with extremely questionable morals; in the course of a century, they conquered other species, developed illegal weapons, and produced quantities of the narcotic ketracel-white. The Son’a were also a very materialistic people: their clothes were encrusted with jewels, and one of their leaders, Ahdar Ru’afo, sat on a large, richly-decorated couch on the bridge of his ship. The Son’a entered into a brief alliance with the Federation, but the Son’a had little respect for interstellar law; their vessels were fitted with illegal isolytic subspace weapons, which were outlawed by the Second Khitomer Accords. These devices generated a subspace tear that was attracted to an enemy vessel’s warp core. Subspace weapons were banned because they were so unpredictable, and there was no single tactic that was guaranteed to counter them.

Orions
Orion female (ENT-80)
Orion male (ENT-93)
Slave traders who dealt in “green animal women.”[1] The supposed “animal” nature of Orion women, however, was discovered to be a pretense by the Enterprise NX-01 in 2154; Orion women produced extremely powerful pheromones, which they were able to use to disable Human women and make men—both Human and Orion—susceptible to suggestion. Vulcan women were apparently immune, while Denobulan men were sent into an unnatural sleep cycle.[3] Orion territory was located adjacent to the Klingon Empire, and the region where Klingon and Orion territory met was known as the Borderland.[2]
Notable Orions:
- Harrad Sar[3]
- Navaar[3]

Kathryn Janeway (ST-10)
Species originating on Earth. According to the Talosians in the 2250s, “The customs and history of [Humans] show[s] a unique hatred of captivity. Even when it’s pleasant and benevolent, [they] prefer death. This makes [them] too violent and dangerous a species for [the Talosians’] needs.” The Talosians had scanned the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701‘s databanks, and had gleaned quite a bit of information about Human history.[1]

Borg
Borg drone (TNG-174)
Borg drone (TNG-253)
Borg drone (STEXP2)
Borg infant (TNG-142)
The Borg were a partially organic, partially cybernetic race who apparently had their origins deep within the Delta Quadrant. The thoughts of the Borg were all joined in a hive-mind, or collective consciousness, and so the entire species operated as one gigantic organism, as if the Borg race was one huge entity and the individual drones and ships merely components of the greater whole. The Borg were technologically advanced and had conquered vast regions of space in their quest for perfection, which involved forcibly assimilating the races and technologies they encountered.[1]

Andorians
Shran (ENT-07)
Thelin (TAS-03)
Talas (ENT-89)
Esheli (STO)
These humanoid Federation members are blue-skinned in appearance and have bilateral antennae and characteristically white hair.[1] Andorians have a higher metabolism than humans[15]. Because of Andorians’ unusual physiology, intravenous injections are not possible; instead, a doctor must use intra-muscular injections.[2]
Andorian antennae are used, at least in part, for balance. An Andorian is partially disabled and unable to function immediately following the loss of an antenna, but is typically able to compensate after a day or two. Antennae can take up to nine months to regrow, although that can be completed in half the time with electrical stimulation and cranial massage therapy. Loss of antennae is a humiliating experience for an Andorian.[15] An Andorian’s antennae can also detect subtle shifts in temperature, electrical fields, and emotion.[16] The movement of an Andorian’s antennae can also indicate emotional states. An Andorian will sometimes point their antennae at a potential mate to signify attraction, though it is unclear if this is a voluntary or involuntary response.[12]
