A humanoid race of telepaths, the Ullians are telepaths with a vested interest in learning the memories of other species, with the power to enhance and recover lost memories. (TNG: "Violations")

History

Before the 21st century, the Ullians were a violent people. Telepathic memory invasion was a common occurence. By the end of the 21st century, they became peaceful, and instances of memory invasion were virtually eliminated, although some members of Ullian society still practiced that form of rape.

By 2368, the Ullians had embarked upon an ambitious plan to construct a library of memories from species across the Federation and beyond. Several Ullians, including Tarmin and Jev, were trained in telepathic memory retrieval and used the ability to reconstruct and collect memories. It was hoped the memory library would be not unlike an repository of oral histories. One group of Ullians visited eleven planets in eight star systems including Melina II, Nel III, and Hurada III. Kaldra IV was also a planned stop. Before the Ullian delegation arrived at Kaldra IV, Jev was found guilty of committing telepathic memory invasion against several members of the USS Enterprise-D crew, bringing a temporary interruption to the research.

Culture

For the most part, the Ullians are a gentle, honest, and friendly people. They have a great passion for their work, but do not wish to coerce other species into participating if they are not willing.

Anatomy and Physiology

The Ullians are physically similar to humans. The sides of their skulls have a pronounced hairless bulge, most likely related to their telepathic centers. They are also characterized by lightly upswept eyebrows and a rough-textured membrane that covers the top of the ear and melds flush to the head.

Ullians are capable of telepathically reading most humanoid species, although other telepathic species such as the Betazoids have difficulty in reading Ullian minds. (TNG: "Violations")

Technology

Ullians have developed a modern advanced culture, even though their technology lags far behind modern standards.
