Kalthurians

GEOPHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
PLANETARY SYSTEM: Kathan System (Binary Star System)
PLANET: Kalthan
DESCRIPTION: Class M
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
APPEARANCE:
Kalthurians look like humans except for blue skin and sapphire blue eyes. All Kalthurians have distinctive marks much like a fingerprint in such a way as they are unique. They can appear as any shape.
The cellular physiology contains almost as much cobalt as it does iron and this is what gives Kalthurians a blue colour. This is similar to Andorian's cellular physiology.
PHYSIOLOGY:
Kalthurians have the virtually same physiology as humans except they have a higher rate of cell renewal and lower rate of cell decay and have no gender but visually appear female.
During a certain point in a Kalthurians life time a chemical reaction will trigger and drive most into exploring space and this has a 95% chance for it to occur in Kalthurians. It wears off after one hundred to two hundred years but most stay in space as they still get enjoyment from exploring.
Kalthurians are very resistant to most forms of mental domination due to the way their brain is wired. Recently leading reseachers have speculated that a Kalthurian might be able to keep ones individuality similar to what a neural suppressant did to Lieutenant Commander Tuvok, Lieutenant Torres and Captain Janeway did on Voyager when forming the borg resistance movement in the Delta Quadrant.
Trellium - D has a massive effect on a Kalthurian, it damages their lungs and immune system in a severe dosage but heightens the sensory perceptions while at extreme levels it damages the brain resulting in organ failure from the brain not being able to control them, memory loss, sensory loss (having trouble feeling, hearing etc) and mutiple personality's emerge.
The pheromones in a Deltan can cause a Kalthurian to act irrational, irresponsible and almost dangerous due to the way the pheromones interact with the physiology of a Kalthurian. Due to limited contact with Deltans, this was only discovered after medical evidence was shown by the ex-chief medical officer onboard the Artemis Elliago after the Azimuth Horizon incident with regards to Kelsey Alther.
MATING:
Kalthurians are unique as they do not require a physical touch to have children but use a form of Parthogenesis called Kalth’Lo’Tapn (Ritual of Mating), which is when the “mother” of the child connects to another humanoid species and if the partner consents they connect mentally and via mental stimulation in the brain this triggers the cells in the “dominant” (The partner who initiated the Ritual) partner which produces a child. Any species of humanoids can be a partner for a Kalthurian; Kalthurians normally gestate for around 1 year before giving birth to the child.
DIET:
Kalthan is similar to Earth in terms of plants and animals so the diet of the Kalthurian is similar to that of Humans. However the plants there contain high amounts of cobalt and there are several specific plants which are not found anywhere else and are considered a delicacy in certain parts of the galaxy.
LANGUAGE
NAMING:
Kalthurians do not have a language of there own communicate through sign language, sign identification and mental imprints. Each Kalthurian uses such phrases as “One with blue stripes on shoulder” and each Kalthurian has a unique mental imprint along with shapes on their body. They only receive a spoken name when they contact another species and are asked to be named by them. Such an example would be a Kalthurian meeting a Human an asking them to name them via mental contact, the Human would name them and their spoken name would now be that to all species.
WORDLIST:
Kalthurians do not have a language of their own as other species and talk through sign language, sign identification and mental imprints.
SOCIETY:
Kalthurian society is very space faring as a chemical reaction in the body triggers an uncontrollable need to visit space and explore it. Kalthurian society is split into 2 groups, The Space Farers who live out most of their adult lives in space and The Ground Wayists who are not overcome by the chemical reaction in the body which drives so many Kalthurians into space travel. The Ground Wayists are highly respected as they have resisted the urge to go to space and generally dedicate themselves to finding more about their race by visiting the ruins dotting the planet and by studying animals and plants from which Kalthurians share some genetic material from. The signature close combat weapon of any Kalthurian is a Deki'kah (Since the Klingons first named the item) which resembles a halberd used by knights on Earth's medival times. Blacksmiths are still around on Kalthan and they make the personalized Deki'Kah for every Kalthurian. Kalthurians have immense training with these weapons and can use them to around the same effect if not better of a Klingon Master of the Bat'leth
GOVERNMENT:
The government of Kalthan is based on Kalthan 1 which is the only Kalthurian Starbase, in orbit of Kalthan. This government has 2 boards. The Kalthurian Board has the ability to create new laws, regulations and diplomacy with other races. This board is made up of 20 members who must have a 75% agreement to pass a new law or regulation. The Kalthan Board is the ultimate power. Made up of 5 members this board has the ability to override the decision but requires all of the 5 members to agree and must resign their posts once this is done.
RELATIONS TO THE FEDERATION:
The Kalthurians are well liked within the Federation for their peaceful explorative nature and would gladly help any ally which needed it desperately, however they have only just applied for citizenship for the federation and only one member of the Kalthurains is currently serving in Starfleet.
HISTORY:
WARS:
The Kalthurians have only ever had one war and it is not actively spoken of as the powerful telepathic war destroyed most of the cities, killed millions of Kalthurians and destroyed much of the stored knowledge of Kalthan. After this the Religious Government known as the Speakers of Jilian instituted themselves as leaders to prevent another war from happening.
EARLY HISTORY:
Most of the history was lost after the telepathic war which also instituted the religious government that prevented another war from happening and they purged all remaining history as it was “an affront to Jillian”.
MODERN DEVELOPMENT:
Development has stagnated since Warp Development as the chemical reaction takes over much of the population and as such only a few people study Medicine and Science on Kalthan and as such means any advances are slowed in favor of exploring space.
SPACE EXPLORATION:
Started in 2078 which disproved much of the religious governments ideas and it caused the Kalthurians to throw them out for polluting their base ideals of being related to plants and animals.
WARP DEVELOPMENT:
Developed in 2080 after the chemical reaction continually pushed them to find a way to explore space quicker.
FIRST CONTACT:
Initiated by the Kalthurians in 2233 after the report of Kelsey and several other Kalthurians who had also followed human vessels and reported them to be peaceful explorers.

- Eligahn Fungus – Known for its powerful flavor, has been compared to being hit by a fiery carcass of a starship.
- Storm Leaves – An aggressive plant which attempts to constrict and attack its prey, taste is hard to place but it known to be extremely nice once the hard outer layer is broken through.
