History

The Aquan civilization was an example of forced evolution. Centuries before the 23rd century, the Aquans were air-breathers, but massive planet-wide earthquakes flooded the entire planet. They were forced to adapt to be able to breath underwater. Fortunately, their medical science technology was advanced enough to induce a necessary mutation, called a surgo-op, to ensure the survival of the entire species.

While primative in nature it was enough so that over the years they were able to fine tune the genetic modifications to the point where they are now fully adapted to underwater liveing.

Government

The Aquans were governed by a Ruling Tribunal of the Aquans, guided by the Aquan ordainments.

Description

While humanoid in appearance they have evolved light green scally skin due to the genetic manipulation. This was to prevent skin damage due to prolonged submersion under water. Another genetic alteration was the addition of gills in their neck to enhance their ability to breathe underwater. They have dark green hair.

Physiology

Due to all the genetic manipulation their physiology is basically an ideal mix of both humanoid and aquatic fish.

Federation Intelligence Files

In 2269, the crew of the USS Enterprise visited Argo and discovered the underwater society. On an away mission, Spock and Captain Kirk were temporarily altered to become water-breathers. Fortunately, Doctor McCoy discovered that the venom of the sur-snake contained an antidote, and they were returned to normal.
