Axanarri

The Axanarri are a humanoid species native to the planet Axanar, located in the Alpha Quadrant.

They are known to be androgynous, to prefer a nitrogen-methane atmosphere, and to produce triglobulin from their zymuth gland. This substance had medical and aphrodisiac properties, and was used by a number of different species for those purposes. Some even forcefully "harvest" Axanar for their triglobulin.

A typical Axanarri lifespan exceeds 400 years.

The species developed their first nation-states in 800 BCE and soon developed into the Conglomeration unto Axanar.

First contact between Humans and the Axanarri occurred in 2151, when the crew of the UES Enterprise encountered an Axanarri vessel following an attack by the Collectors. The assailants were "harvesting" triglobulin from the ship's crew. The Axanarri originally suspected that the Enterprise crew were responsible for the attack, but Ensign Hoshi Sato was able to communicate the truth to them.
