Triannian

The Triannons are a humanoid race from the planet Triannon, which is located in the Muratas Cluster in the Delphic Expanse. It is part of the Unified Kingdom of Inkaara.

Triannon technology was vastly inferior to even 22nd century United Earth; it would take one of their ships a year to travel 6.3 light-years. They do not have transporters, nor do they have any experience with them.

The Triannons have a strong religious faith; they believe that the Delphic Expanse Mass Relays were created by gods they call the Makers. They believe the Expanse is the "Chosen Realm" of the Makers, who are supposedly using the spatial anomalies ("the Makers' Breath") to reshape space to create a paradise in anticipation of their eventual return. They claim there are thousands of Mass Relays in the Expanse, though more scientific Xindi analyses have shown that there are barely a 50.

The Triannons venerate the Mass Relays through prayers and meditation, often taking pilgrimages months long to see them. However, traveling through a Relay, landing on it, or going inside it were all terrible acts of desecration punishable by death. Their many beliefs include an aversion to invasive medical care; they do not allow detailed bioscans, but this might have been a ploy to avoid detection of the organic explosives embedded within their bodies.

In the mid-20th century, a religious war broke out on Triannon between the major factions of their religion over how long it took for the Choosen Realm to be created, nine days or ten days. In 2001 the war was finally ended. In the closing of the war, Triannon of the Red Faction seized several Inkaaran medical ships and crashed them into the Black Faction's cities. Both sides were decimated, and there were no more major cities and millions were dead. Because of these acts of terrorism, the Unified Kingdom of Inkaara conquered Trainnon and outlawed their religion.

While most Trainnons have renounced the worship of the Relays, there are still those that hold on and acts of suicide bombings occur every year.
