History

Hunter/Gatherer society that lagged in technology until contacted by Captain Garth of Izar in 2240. Because of their bioresin base in all that they have and create, the planet is fairly free of pollutants and little, if any, damage has been done to the ecological balance of the world.

Allowed entry into the Federation under a 'grandfather clause' of the Prime Directive that allowed interaction with cultures contacted prior to General Order One.

Government

Oligarchy. Leader is called the 'Prime'. The Prime occupies any and all levels of government and sets all policy for Therbian people. This includes relations with other planets, the Federation, and individual communities on the homeworld.

Description

Hairless humanoids with a waxy complexion yellow in color. Large heads with bifurcated craniums. Deep set eyes that are shielded by their heavy brow ridge.

Physiology

Humanoid species distinguished by large bald, bulbous, ridged headsThough they do not look like it, the Aaamazzarites bodies function much like that of Earth spiders. They are able to biochemically create a substance that they use to create clothing, furniture, and other items used in daily life. This chemical and the resulting 'silk' is spun from their mouths. They posses a second stomach where this biochemical resides.

Reproduction is accomplished through means other than live birth.

Psychology

Unknown

Religion

They have a rich pantheon of gods and heroes that are quasi-historical.

Mythology

Rich and deep, only recently segregated from religion and history.

Society

For many years, a caste system has been in place. There are five castes: Prime, Religious, Warrior, Learned, and Worker. Each caste has its own laws and traditions. Society is generally matriarchal, and usually, but not always, the eldest female of the caste was in charge. Though this is a ridged system, there is no stigma associated with belonging with any caste.

The Therbians are a secluded race, and few ever leave their world. Likewise, few people from other worlds ever visit.

Culture

The culture of this species revolves around their long history and is heavy in art and storytelling.

Customs

Everything on Aaamazzara is created from the biochemical ability of this species to spin 'silk' much like a hive of bees would build a hive. Workers take great pride in their creations.

Each individual caste has their own customs.

Technology

Primitive, as they were contacted prior to gaining the ability to traverse space. Were seen in Federation installations in MA:Star Trek: The Motion Picture after learning tech needed from Terran contact.

All starport and transport facilities were ground based. As a result, there is nothing in orbit of the planet. Only extremely basic, emergency repairs were available to starships that could not land on the planet.
