Kleri Information
Species Name:
Kleri
General Appearance/Biology
Height :
Male- 5'7" - 6'5"
Female- 4'9" - 5'7"
Weight :
Male: 130lbs - 250lbs
Female: 110lbs - 180lbs
Physical Traits :
Lean and Muscular; Tall and thin. Rare is it for a Kleri to be physically imposing
Hair : Black, brown, blonde, red, white, silver
Skin : Black, brown, tan, white
Eyes : Black, brown, hazel, green, blue, orange, pink, yellow
Longevity : 600 - 800 years (they age 6 times slower than humans)
Infancy - Ages 0-2
Toddler - Ages 2-4
Prepubescence - Ages 4-12
Adolescence - Ages 13-18
Puberty - Ages 13-15
Adulthood - Ages 18-death (Aging slows in their mid to late 20's. Varies between individuals.)
Personality :
The Kleri are a tempermental species; with a wide range of personality traits. The Kleri youth is extremely headstrong, and stubborn, due to their lack of mental abilities. Around puberty, when the mental abilities begin to form, the Kleri youth calms, and becomes more relaxed. Usually, after the first hundred or so years, adult Kleri have been known to become completely pacifistic.
Abilities :
After puberty sets in, the Kleri develop various mental abilities. According to Kleri law, there are four castes. (They are listed below)
Khalai: A "Khalai" is an empath. As an empath, they are the lowest ranked psychic level. Also known as 'Feelers'.
Orhilin: An "Orhilin" is a low level telepath; only being able to read thoughts of the moment, and nothing more. Also known as 'Sensors'.
Overmind: An "Overmind" can read and send thoughts; they also can look into your memories, and literally read your mind. Also known as 'Readers'.
Templar: A "Templar" can read and send thoughts, across vast distances; it is believed that if a Templar hones his abilities he can reach any mind he so wishes from any location in the universe; though the time spent working on such an ability would make the Templar near death in age. A Templar has been able to get a telepathic reading on even some of the more advanced species. Finally, the Templar have Telekinetic abilities. Also known as 'Movers'. Templar are the highest caste of the Kleri; often they hold all seats of power in the Klerian Parliament.
Species History
The Kleri are an 'old' species, not so much as based on their age, but the total age of their species. Their homeworld, Klerian, has an approximate age of 5.3 billion years; and has been supporting life longer than Earth. Which allowed the Kleri to evolve quite longer than humans. Basic spaceflight had been achieved approximately 1000 years, before the foundation of the United Federation of Planets; however, due to the invasion of an unknown, Insectoid species that wiped out most of the Kleri technological advances. This species, information which has only recently been discovered by the Kleri people, were known as the Hur'q.
The Hur'q maintained dominance over the Klerian homeworld for, roughly, one hundred years. Before they were driven off by the first of the Templar; who some believe evolved under the rule of the Hur'q, simply to rid the planet of them. A time of rebuilding too place; as well as an insurgance of advancement. The Kleri did not want to be caught off guard again; so they dug up their old records, and began the race towards space flight. Something that was also made easy, by the number of Hur'q space craft abandoned on the planet after their withdrawl. Combining their mental abilities, and advancing their control systems, the Kleri people had a working warp-capable starship, that could be controlled mentally. All of this was done approximately 400 years before the Human named Zefram Cochrane built the Earth's first warp ship.
With a fleet of starships, the Kleri people began to explore and colonize the planets in the Klerian system; which had a total of seven colonizational planets and/or planetoids. The Kleri began immediate colonization of their discovered planets; seperating their greatest minds; to prevent the utter destrcuction of their species in case the invaders returned to wipe them out. Once each colony was established, the Kleri Parliament decided to create an organization designed for the exploration of their neighboring systems. Several small fleets of ships launched from the Kleri shipyards, and headed out. One of their most notable encounters was with the Klingon people; who, similarly to the Kleri, were using Hur'q technology. After a short battle, the commanding officer of the Kleri ship managed to open a dialogue with the Klingon Commander. After a short conversation, each removed records of the conflict from their computer systems, and deemed each others systems off limits.
Most of the ships returned to the Kleri homeworld, at which time the Parliament decided to remain inside it's own system. There were too many unknowns out there, and they didn't want to provoke another Hur'q incident. The Kleri space fleet was turned into a defensive fleet only, keeping their borders clear of potential invading species. This changed when a roaming spatial anomaly decimated one of their colonies; the Parliament decided they didn't know enough about space and the dangers it held. Which, at about the same time a Starfleet vessel was surveying a nearby system. First contact between the two species went relatively well.
