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.

Description
A humanoid race of telepaths, the Ullians have a vested interest in learning the memories of other species.
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.
Psychology
Ullians are capable of telepathically reading most humanoid species, although other telepathic species such as the Betazoids have difficulty in reading Ullian minds.
Ullians have the capability to repair lost and fragmented memories via telepathic contact for both their own, and other species.
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.

Technology
Ullians have developed a modern advanced culture, even though their technology lags far behind modern standards. They are a space faring race capable of reaching beyond their own sphere of influence to other systems and sectors yet choose to stay focused on their own world, seeing no need for expansion.
Economy
The economy of the Ullian species is knowledge. The most predominant for of knowledge acquisition is through telepathic contact with both other species and their own. Like the federation, their Utopian society lacks currency and instead chooses to pay for services rendered via the sharing of knowledge via telepathic means.
Military
The Ullians have no military capabilities at all and rely entirely upon the Federation for defensive purposes. This stems from the fact that violence was all but eradicated from their world at some point during the 21st Century.
Federation Intelligence Files
The Ullians are considered a friendly race, dignitaries of which are to be welcomed aboard Starfleet vessels with open arms. However, special care must be taken during any such visit owing to the very small possibility that a member of the entourage may still practice the art of violating a persons mind, a practice banned for many centuries by the Ullians.
