Turei
Turei Xenology
History:
The Turei are a technologically advance race indigenous to the Delta Quadrant. Their heads and shoulders are humanoid but the rest of their bodies are not seen on screen. All that can be noted is that a Turei adult is hairless, the skin tone is white and there is a forehead ridge extending up and over the front part of the skull. USS Voyager encountered the Turei when Turei fighter ships attacked Voyager while travelling through a network of subspace corridors. The Turei had some time previously seized control of the network but do not possess much information about them such as navigational data. The subspace corridor network was formerly controlled by a race who used the corridors in conjunction with a powerful and technologically advanced fleet of assault ships to ruthlessly expand their territory and exploit and oppress neighbouring civilisations - this race was/is called Vaadwaur. The Turei attacked Voyager in the hope of extracting data about the corridors. When it was discovered that a battalion of Vaadwaur had emerged from 892 years in stasis and thus survived the destruction of their homeworld, the Turei launched an all-out offensive against the fleet of Vaadwaur assault vessels as they left the planet's atmosphere. The Turei remain in violent dispute with the Vaadwaur over the ownership of the network of subspace corridors.
