:''Note: This is '''NOT''' a PC and NPC rated species.''
The '''Breen''' are a reclusive, powerful, and warlike [[humanoid]] species, native to the planet [[Breen]] in the [[Alpha Quadrant]].
==Physiology==
Breen physiology Very little is among known about the most exotic for [[Breen. They are thought to be humanoid]] lifeforms, which may as they appear to be dueof typical humanoid height and build, in partthough Ezri Dax speculated that they had a wolf-like appearance, to their homeworld's climateand xenologists speculated that the Breen could be a silicon-based lifeform. The No one has seen the Breen outside of their sealed, refrigerated suits of armor; it is said that those who have no blood or other liquid circulatory systemdid not live to tell of it. The Since it had been reported that the Breen brain is structured into four lobes; this protects homeworld was a frozen wasteland, it was thought that the refrigerated suits were intended to keep them from the probing of some [[Telepathy#empathic|empathic]] speciescomfortable in warmer alien climates, such as the [[Betazoid]]sthough Weyoun once mentioned that Breen is "actually quite comfortable", who are unable to detect leaving the thoughts or emotions purpose of their suits a source of the Breenspeculation.
It was speculated that the Breen body may be composed of ammonia and gelatin, which are held together in freezing temperatures but evaporate in warmer temperatures. If this hypothesis proved true, they would likely have a skeletal structure but, as they have no blood, contain few organs. The internal structure of the Breen body is able said to take consist of layers of gelatin-filled chambers, with the gelatin serving a considerable beating before being taken downsimilar function to blood, as it transfers chemicals vital for bodily functions. When Worf attacked Therefore, when a Breen with sustains an injury, a blow that could normally fell layer of gelatin will clot around it and seal the wound, which will leave a [[Nausicaan]], the Breen was unfazed. It then successfully zapped him with its neural truncheonscar if left untreated.
:''It The Breen are often regarded as ruthless and devoid of humanoid compassion, a depiction that is possible this toughness augmented by their lack of blood. During the Dominion War, their unprecedented attack on Starfleet Headquarters was due, in part, to the seen as a symbol of their ferocity. The Romulans have a saying: "Never turn your back on a Breen's armor rather than its physiology".''
The Like the Ferengi, the Breen constantly wear refrigeration suits in order were immune to telepathy. This resistance to telepathic intrusion had led many to maintain a cold temperature like speculate that on the their homeworldbrains were multi-lobed, thus preventing any such technique from working. According  ===Revelation - Classified Most Secret=== Star Fleet Intelligence successfully infiltrated Breen space in the 2380s and uncovered definitive and somewhat startling information relating to Worf, no one had ever seen what the Breen and their biology. Initially it was believed that the Breen were a single race; however the name Breen is a name taken on by the member species of the Breen looked like under their refrigeration suits Confederacy. It has been claimed that the individual races take on the singular name and the concealing uniforms in order to prevent any biases and lived. Even after joining prejudices to interfere with the [[Dominion]], development of their appearance was unknown society. The uniform design has been designed to their new alliessupport the distinctive features of the individual races.
==Society and Culture==
 
The Breen commonly produce offspring at a very early age, at about the equivalence in physical growth of human 3rd grade children. The Breen entertain their offspring with nursery rhymes. Breen nursery rhymes can be made up of a heterophonic, five-line verse with an alternating tetrameter and pentameter structure. These are nonsensical phrases strung together because they rhyme (at least to the Breen). Some Breen music, which can accompany these nursery rhymes, is written on a Lyxian scale.
===Treatment of Prisoners===
 
The Breen are known to use slave labor; and at least some of these slaves are captured in raids on other species. When the Breen were using [[Bajoran]]s slaves to mine dilithium ore, there were always at least eight guards within the mines.
==Science and Technology==
 
Given that most known humanoid species live on [[Planetary Classification Table#M|class M]] planets with an average temperature far above the supposed temperature of Breen, the Breen are largely thought to have had to develop refrigeration suits in order to co-exist with others. However, if the Breen homeworld is temperate as suggested by Weyoun, then their reason for wearing environmental suits, if they were environmental suits at all, is much more mysterious.
[[Image:Breenship.jpg|thumb|Breen warship]]
During the 2360s, the [[Breen]] were known for their development of organic technology, which they employed in the construction of their spacecraft. Some of their vessels were even believed to be fitted with cloaking devices. During the mid-2370s, Breen warships utilized energy dampening weapons.
The Breen are known to use type 3 disruptors, like the [[Romulan]]s and [[Klingon]]s. The Breen also manufacture a portable hand-held cannon, the CRM 114. It is designed to target moving objects and surface emplacements. It was among the weapons dealt by the [[Ferengi]] arms dealer Gaila in the mid-2370s.
==History and Politics==
 
Shrouded in mystery, the Breen have been discovered to be one of the most underestimated races inhabiting the [[Alpha Quadrant]].
===Alliance with the [[Dominion]]===
 
In 2375, the Breen moved from a policy of low-level hostilities toward other major powers to one of open warfare when they allied themselves to the [[Dominion]]. They were then allowed access to the [[Dominion]] military database. According to the terms of the alliance, the Breen Confederacy received several planets in the [[Cardassian]] Union as compensation for joining the war.
Although the [[Klingon]] fleet was able to make the needed adjustments against the weapon, the [[Federation]] and the [[Romulan]]s were still unable to defend against the Breen. When the [[Federation]] finally did create a defense against the energy-dampening weapon, they forced the [[Dominion]] fleet to retreat. Breen Thot Pran expressed an extreme distaste of surrender, and would require the reassurance of the female [[Founder]] that they were not surrendering, but instead regrouping and attempting to redouble their shipbuilding and replenishment efforts.
With the necessary counter measures to the Breen's energy dampening weapon obtained, the [[Federation]] Alliance was able to go on the offensive once again, choosing to invade [[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Cardassia_Prime Cardassia Prime]] itself. In hopes of boosting the Breen's will to fight, the Female [[Founder]] offered them control of [[Earth]] and [[Romulus]] if they succeeded in winning the battle. During the Battle of [[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Cardassia_Prime Cardassia Prime|Cardassia]], the Breen were still able to inflict major casualties on the allies, even without the use of their energy dampening weapon. Up to a third of the entire allies' fleet was destroyed during the battle, including the [[Romulan]] flag ship. The Breen continued to fight with the [[Dominion]] until the end, demonstrating a willingness to die for the cause that matched that of the [[Jem'Hadar]]. However, when the [[Cardassian]] forces switched sides mid-battle, the [[Dominion]] and Breen were forced to withdraw to [[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Cardassia_Prime Cardassia Prime]]. After Odo convinced the Female [[Founder]] to surrender, the [[Dominion]] War ended. As a member of the [[Dominion]], the Breen leaders were present during the Treaty of [[Bajor]].
