For all intents and purposes El Aurians appear to be the same as Humans. They vary in all shapes and sizes, colours and varieties.

Body Size

El Aurians vary again in size and shape, much like Humans. Typically, the males of the species are larger, more muscular than their female counterparts. The females of the species are leaner and generally slimmer in appearance.

A Little History

The El-Aurian people are one of the oldest races known to UFP science. Its earliest recorded language was created while the Earth was still deeply in its Paleogene Period.

El Auria was part of a galactic federation of planets known as The United Alliance, normally The Alliance for short. This union consisted of over 500 planets with El Auria being one of the core worlds, and one of the founding worlds. This founding took place in the Earth year 1154 and spanned until its break-down around the 2220’s.

Other founding planets were The Voltari, a reptilian species. The Fubarians, humanoid species known for their spiritual background. The Clyd, a humanoid race and The Borg-Van-Ders a genetically modified race looking at augmentation with technology.

During the 1400’s the Borg-Van-Ders suffered a change to their way of life. By then they had adapted through hundreds of thousands of years to be part biological and part technological and early that century had activated technology on their planet to form a collective to increase productivity, order and to further the pursuit of perfection. This goal became the driving force that led to the creation of The Borg, dropping the Van-Ders, and their driven attitude that others should join them in that pursuit.

They were thrown out of the Alliance in the 1430’s as they began to attack neighbouring systems and enforce their will through assimilation and destruction. This was only a handful of systems most of which belonged to them as their slow burn of galactic tyranny began.

For the next 800 years they would grow and become the enemy that everyone feared they would be, the unstoppable kind.

In the 2150’s a Doctor called Siora Carberos was in charge of a lab that created a pathogen that could be injected into The Borg. This was a ‘sleep’ code that would power down this unstoppable force and put them down for a nap. This pathogen lasted for over 60 years before The Borg began to reactivate.

During those 60 years there was peace and prosperity as they thought the enemy had been vanquished. The systematic destruction of sleeping Borg began but not all could be found and removed.

What was to follow was a collective form of destruction they had never witnessed. It was as if the Borg had all the pent up desire to conquer given their inaction for so long and began ripping through the Delta Quadrant.

Alliance worlds began to fall, disappear off the galaxy map as if they never existed or simply became more drones for the Borg to consume and use. The Fubarians were the first of the core worlds to fall during the early 2210’s and support for the Alliance began to waver.

Like dominoes worlds pulled back, protected themselves when the El Aurian’s tried to keep them all safe. By far they had the biggest military force, both exploratory and defensive.

In 2218 the Clyd fell and the Alliance was in pieces followed by a formal dissolvement in the early 2220s.

El Auria began to pull their people back. Colonies abandoned as The Borg pushed, trade routes consumed by cubes and spheres. The Grand Council saw this would prove to be a losing battle and commissioned a fleet to protect their system to be commanded by General Zorvan T’San, his son Colonel Aranis T’San as fleet XO, and Major Kisorna T’San serving as the General’s XO on their vessel the Bela’na.

In 2265 El Auria, the homeworld of species, was attacked by the Borg.

General T’San had taken his ship and some attack forces to meet the Borg before they entered the system to attempt to give more time to the fleeing civilians. This worked for a time before they were destroyed then sights were set on the defence fleet and planet.

There were survivors that managed to flee and now make up what is left of species around the galaxy. This attack has come to be known as The Exodus with most of the remaining population knowing that title.

In 2345 Zaos Orihana led his people, and the Grand Council (not led by him) ship, and found a world in an uncharted part of the Beta Quadrant. They decided that they had spent long enough wandering as a broken fleet and set roots down on the planet they have named as Kaitos.

Kai and Tos, the gods of rebirth and protection respectively, led to the creation of the planet's name.

This M Class world has 4 moons. Monides, Zestrebos, Telani and Gaaliv. The system itself has 2 suns and consists of another 6 planets.

Presently they have technology that can phase the planet, and surrounding moons, out of normal space time so they can live in anonymity. The fear of Borg returning is still fresh in the minds of some and they believe hiding is the best option at present.

They take in their own kind but most are told to go to a nearby system and are then brought in through covert means. This means they must remain planet side for a number of years of service to help rebuild. There are those that are entrusted with its location such as council members, ambassadors and some traders.

It is a growing movement on Kaitos that they reveal themselves soon. There has been talk in the council chambers of petitioning the Federation for membership.
