:''Note: This is a PC and NPC rated species.''
The Brikar are a technologically sophisticated, roughly [[humanoid]] civilization from the low-gravity world of [[Brikar]]. They are a proud, warrior race and are members of the [[Federation]]. Though not unemotional, the Brikar have a renowned stoicism and a chauvinism that is equally famous. The Brikar have traditionally harbored a dislike for [[Klingon]]s stemming from intense border disputes that occurred before the [[Klingon]]-Federation Alliance of 2293. In 2358, the Brikar attempted to form an alliance of races hostile to the [[Federation]] and made a bid to take over the [[Federation]]. The few skirmishes that were fought over a number of weeks were later called the Brikar-[[Federation]] War.
==Physiology==
Brikar are bipedal, roughly [[humanoid]] beings that possess very tough hides and dense physiques, making them appear like living rock statues. Unlike most other species who come from low-gravity worlds, the Brikar are immensely strong and heavy. Other low-gravity species such as the [[Elaysian]]s are lithe, relatively frail beings who can hardly stand in gravities such as [[Earth]] normal. Yet the Brikar are powerfully built and quite dense. This apparent disparity lends credence to the common belief that the Brikar have genetically altered their physical make-up over the centuries, and have in effect bred themselves for physical strength. In the relatively higher [[Earth]] gravity, Brikar appear more flattened vertically than on their homeworld, and they experience some difficulty in moving. However, they retain their incredible strength.
The average Brikar is capable of lifting several tons, even in [[Earth]] gravity. Although fairly rigid in physique they can be capable of unexpected quickness. They have large lung capacities, slow metabolisms and airtight mouths, allowing them to hold their breath for 20 minutes at a stretch. They have the well-deserved reputation for being hard to scare, owing to their size, strength, and tough hides which can withstand phaser blasts that would kill [[human]]s.
