History

Wraiths is how the Eskans referred to the indigenous shape shifters they hunted on the rogue planet. The wraiths, who possessed telepathic abilities, could assume various forms. One appeared to Captain Archer as a woman from a Yeats poem, in order to ask for his assistance.

After the founding of the Federation the situation that the wraiths were in was eventually brought to the attention of the council. As a result they were offered a chance to be relocated to a new planet. They accepted, even with all the conditions that were attached to this offer.

Their current home world location is classified, and in a remote location. Beacons warn off all ships and record, scan any ships that get to close to the quarantine zone. The area near their planet is unstable and extremely dangerous to space craft.
