Description: A humanoid race with partial empathic capabilities; Danny Kwan was half-Napean. The Napians are members of the Federation but take little interest in the rest of the galaxy. Physically, the Napians, resemble Terrans and Betazoids and genetic analysis leads to the supposition that the Napian race is a transplanted cross between the two races, yet just different enough to be detected. Most Napians do not bother to use or cultivate their Psi skills and their training techniques can take years for what Betazoids and Vulcans learn in weeks. Those that perfect their Empathic and limited Telepathic skills serve professionally in Napian culture.
