The '''Kesprytt''' are a [[warp]]-capable species native to the [[planet]] [[Kesprytt III]]. They are divided into two rivaling nation-states known as the "Kes " and the "Prytt. "   In [[2370]], the bigger part of this species (the Kes) applied for associate [[Federation]] membership, but this request was denieddue to Federation requirements that included the entire planet must be the one to apply.  There were virtually no inter-governmental communications, not even in an emergency capacity, since the late 23rd century. Due to the long conflict between the two nations, all Kesprytt have developed a strong sense of paranoia and [[xenophobia]].

The '''Kressari''' are a spacefaring [[humanoid]] species. They are primarily widely known for their reputation as traders, and are positively noted for their commercial trade trading of botanical [[DNA]].

Constable Odo of Deep Space 9 was able to infiltrate Although a politically neutral race with no standing military, elements within the [[Cardassian]] Central Command employed Kressari freighter ''Calondon'' as intermediaries in [[2370]] to secretly supply a [[Bajoran]] insurgence group with weapons and obtain proof that the other supplies.   Since their reptilian skin is not as flexible as other [[Cardassianhumanoid]]s were behind ', Kressari express emotional states through changes in the weapons shipmentscolors of the irises of their eyes. These colors include black, white, blue, violet and vermillion, with each color denoting a different emotional state. The colors can also combine, with one surrounding another in concentric rings, thus discrediting the Circleto express more complex emotions.

The '''Lumerians''' are a [[humanoid]] species, clearly noticeable by their distinctive forehead markings.   As a species they are gifted with [[telepathy|empathic]] abilities, but are usually culturally restricted in the use of this [[telepathy|empathy]] to other Lumerians and alien [[telepathy|empaths]] and [[telepathy|telepath]]s. Some Lumerians seem to be able to ritually form a psionic bond with another person, giving him or her the option to "dump" bad feelings and other "mental waste" onto the bond partner. The latter one usually suffers from severely accelerated aging and aggressive behavior. The ritual is performed with the help of a crystalline stone, that seems to enhance the psionic output of the ritual participants. Medical evidence of such an occurrence can be found in the [[brain|cerebral cortex]], in the form of elevated levels of neurotransmitter residue.  Lumerians performed a funeral meditation which usually involved a partner, and speaking in the Lumerian language.

The Metronswere first encountered by [[United Federation of Planets]] representatives in [[2267]]. In that year, [[Captain]] [[James T. Kirk]] ordered the [[USS Enterprise, NCC-1701|USS Enterprise]] to pursue a [[Gorn]] vessel that had destroyed an observation outpost located on Cestus III. As the pursuit passed the uncharted solar system, the ''Enterprise'' was scanned, the [[Gorn]] vessel was stopped, and Kirk assumed they were posturing to fight. But both ships were held in place, declaring not by tractor beam or by spatial forces, but by a power the ''Enterprise'' could not detect. The Metrons declared both species ships to be savages, prepared a planet and removed the captain of each ship Captain to a neutral planet to fight to itthe death. ThereWhen Kirk won, they would fight but chose to spare the deathGorn, and his mercy surprised the outcome of Metrons. They then returned each Captain to this contest would determine which ship survived, and which was destroyedwere able to relocate the Federation ship 1,600 light years from its previous position.

The In this one encounter, the Metrons demonstrated the ability to manipulate forms many formidable abilities: manipulation of energy forms unknown to the Federation; scanning at great ranges; [[Federationtransporter|transportation]] science: to perform comprehensive scans at great range, to transport of matter over great distances instantly, ; and perhaps to rapidly terraform possibly [[terraforming]] planets to specific requirements. All of these feats were well beyond what even 24th century [[Federation]] technology can accomplish. This this suggests their science and technology is hundreds or thousands of years more advanced than that of the [[Federation]].

They conducted trade with Metrons have long lifespans; the [[Verillian]]s representative that met Kirk was approximately 1,500 years old, despite appearing as little more than a boy. His comment to Kirk suggested an interest in 2373the political and sociological geometry of the galaxy that was thousands of years old.
