Description
their fashion tends to drab, monochromatic one-piece body suits. Their webbed hands have only three fingers plus a thumb, and a stubby vestigial tail protrudes from the small of the back.
The Korri evolved from amphibians on their oceanic world of Beta Korrilae II, located in the Freeworlds Region of the Par'tha Expanse. Their moist skin is a mottled blue-grey color, though light-to-dark variations exist. While their auditory and olfactory senses are underdeveloped, they have excellent vision and can even see to a limited degree in wavelengths not normally visible to most humanoids. Their "ears" are nothing more than a double-layered membrane under their skin that vibrates over their auditory canals. Korri have no "noses." Instead, catfish-like whiskers pick up airborne chemicals, which their brains interpret as "smells."
Physiology
Even though Korri eyesight is exceptional,
Extra Sense
One advantage the Korri do posses is a limited psionic ability. Although this is primarily used as an extra sense to gain awareness of their surroundings, most Korri have developed their abilities enough to give them an edge in their business dealings.
Psychology
Religion
Mythology
Society
While Ferengi could be considered the "corrupt businessmen" of the Alpha Quadrant, the Korri would be better described as unscrupulous "street vendors," "back alley salesmen" or "circus sideshow callers" who know the value of what they're selling, but tell you it is ten times more.
Culture
Customs
Technology
They have few to no offensive capabilities, and Korri technology has an upper limit of warp 3.
Economy
Their large starships are best described as "flying bazaars" (filled mostly with junk).
