History
The ancestors of the Na'kuhl under Vosk's leadership worshiped gods, and Vosk, once referred to them as having been considerably imaginative but substantially less technologically developed. At another time, a Na'kuhl who Vosk later respectfully described as "our greatest scientist" stated, "Every moment we live, we are moving through time."
At one point in their history under Vosk's leadership, the Na'kuhl attempted to eradicate the Suliban. They traveled into the past to prevent the Suliban from becoming sentient. However, an opposing faction of temporal agents stopped the Na'kuhl and ensured that the Suliban attained sentience, despite the ongoing enmity between the Temporal Agents and the Suliban. Later, they were nearly defeated and captured by one of their uptime agencies, a faction lead by Daniels. However, they managed to escape to Earth in 1944, creating an alternate timeline where Nazi Germany was able to take over a significant proportion of the Eastern United States. During this timeline, they were creating an temporal conduit to return to the 29th century. However, the crew and ship of Enterprise (NX-01) was transported to this timeline by Daniels, and between Jonathan Archer and Silik, they destroyed the conduit, preventing them from returning to their own time. This also reset the current timeframe and ended this front of the Temporal Cold War.
Government
At this time nothing is known about this aspect of their society or culture. No records or data has been retrieved to aid the experts in creating a theory.
Description
The Na'kuhl have pale complexions, bony-looking faces with bat-like features as well as bright red eyes, and many veins visible on their bald heads. They were seen as demons in the alternate timeline created in 1944.
Physiology
As with most intelligent humanoid species they have a very complex system with specialized organs, and unique hormones, chemicals and enzymes. Until more medical data can be gathered most experts believe that like most other typical humanoids they most likely suffer from many of the same types of physical, mental and biological medical problems that seem to plague most humanoids. They also have yellowish-brown blood.

Technology
The Na'kuhl were equipped with extremely powerful plasma rifles. Although these weapons required much power for portable usage, the attainment of such power was apparently very easy for the Na'kuhl in their native time period, where there were – according to an account of uncertain credibility that Vosk once made – energy cells as small as a coin.
According to the same account, the Na'kuhl were additionally capable of unleashing a plague that targeted victims based on their genetic profile and could be dispersed throughout an entire country by introducing a few grams of a pathogen into that country's water supply. The Na'kuhl also used a style of hand-held communicator, in addition to the time-traveling technologies they developed at different points of their development.
Economy
Unknown.
Military
With their ability in the past to access different times it was possible for them to use weapons and systems that were far superior to any belonging to the time they were currently in.
With that being said, since the end of the Temporal Cold War the experts believe that they no longer have access to time travel technology and that as a species they are now less advanced than the Federation and no longer a threat militarily.
Federation Intelligence Files
Regardless of what the experts believe Starfleet Command, Starfleet Intelligence and The Federation Intelligence Service all require instant notification of any contact with this species. Even suspected contact or rumors of contact are to be reported.
Time Perceptor
The time perceptor was a piece of technology from Delta IV that allowed the user to view and fully experience events in the past.
In 2372, a group of Carreons stole a time perceptor from the Yongam Museum. The perceptor was then taken from the Carreons by Na'kuhl from the future.
