::''"Our addiction to the drug felicium almost destroyed us."''
:::a Ornaran warning.
:The Ornaran are a species that due to their addiction to the drug felicium slowly degenerated, backsliding in skills, knowledge and ability until they had almost regressed to a pre-space flight capable species.


Almost identical to Terrans except for a extra cartlidge bridge on the nose and the unique ability to provide a limited electical discharge from the hands, while produced at great strain to the [[ma:Ornaran|Ornaran]], it can incapacitate the unwary. This race was kept in virtual addiction to felicium, a native drug, by the neighboring world of Brekka supposedly to fight off ongoing effects of a plague that was long ago cured. Originally, the Ornarans had long outpaced the [[Brekkian]] economy. Upon the failure of the last felicium supply freighter in 2364, the entire planet has entered a painful detox process.

The Delos system contains two inhabited planets: Ornara, the third planet from the sun, and its outer neighbor, Brekka. Both planets are inhabited by a race that is humanoid in appearance. The Delos system's sun is relatively unstable and is prone to periodic violent magnetic field changes producing gigantic and intense solar flares. It is speculated that the proximity of the unstable magnetic field is responsible for the innate ability of the Brekkians and the Ornarans to generate powerful electrical charges. These charges are easily capable of stunning humans, although races with similar abilitys seem better able to withstand the effects.  
==History==
The recent history of the Ornarans and the [[Brekkian|Brekkians]] has been intertwined, but for centuries, the two cultures developed independently.


==History==
At one time, the Ornarans were the more advanced society, diverging from the development of Brekka approximately 2,000 years ago. Two centuries ago, the Ornarans technology reached the point where they had developed space travel.

===Shared History===
Technologically, Brekka lagged behind Ornara, but the potentially devastating effect of a plague on both cultures in the 22nd century provided the means for the Brekkians to achieve dominance over their neighbors.

A cure was discovered on Brekka through the refinement of '''felicium'''; this was rapidly used as a curitiave for the entire Brekkian population, and space travel permitted the felicium to be passed on to the Ornaran population. Unfortunately, the plant resisted all attempts at cultivation on Ornana.

Unfortunately, the plant resisted all attempts at cultivation on Ornana.


In addition to its curative effect, felicium also has highly addictive properites. The Brekkians avoided consumption once all traces of the plague had been eradicated on Brekka, but, fully cognizant of its narcotic qualities, they were quite happy to continue supplying the felicium to the inhabitants of Ornara, who believe themselves dependent on regular supplies of the drug to prevent a recurrence of the plague.

The Brekkians modified and improbed the refining process, and also developed a device that transforms the pill into a substance that enables it to be administered by injection. The euphoric and soporific effects were almost instantaneous, causing a mental laxity as the Ornarans interact on a detached basis. The placidity can have dangerous consequences. For instance, and Ornaran under the influence of felicium is incapable of maintaining control during difficult situations. The lack of felicium is even worse; a desperate desire for the drug, coupled with a belief that without it they will die from the plague, renders the Ornarans incapable of almost any act.

The advent of the plague has shifted the balance of culture and technology between Brekka and Ornara. Brekka's entire scientific and technological rescources are geared to producing felicium pills, which are then traded with Ornara for all necessities and the additional comfort that allow the Brekkians to live a pampered life.

While this comfortable standard of living gives the Brekkians a veneer of sophistication and refinement, it barely masks the arrogance and contempt they have for the people they exploit. It has also resulted in a stagnant society, where they is no reason to progress from a situation where all their requirements and wishes are provided by others.

The Federation sent observers during the 22nd century, but there is little subsequent contact between either planet and the Federation until 2364, when two Brekkians and two Ornarans, along with a cargo of felicium, are beamed aboard the USS Enterprise D from a destructing freighter craft orbiting Brekka.
Generations of drug addiction resulted in loss of intelligence and technical knowledge, and by 2364, the Ornarans no longer had the ability to maintain their interplanetary freighters that they needed to transport felicium from Brekka to Ornara. As a result, the freighter Sanction was destroyed above Brekka when a drive-coil malfunction made it impossible for the ship to maintain a stable orbit. Although the malfunction was fairly minor, the Ornarans' technical ignorance made the problem disastrous.  


The relationhip between the Brekkians and their neighbors is forever altered by Captain Jean-Luc Picard as he applies a strict definition of Starfleet's Prime Directive, forbidding interference in other cultures. Knowing that they only craft capable of transportation between the planets are badly in need of repair and will son be unusable, he refuses to donate the necessary components, leaving no means of transporting the felicium.  
The Ornarans, along with the Brekkians, requested Federation assistance in repairing their remaining ships, but [[ma:USS Enterprise-D|USS Enterprise-D]] Captain [[ma:Picard, Jean-Luc|Jean-Luc Picard]] declined to render aid, citing [[ma:Prime Directive|Prime Directive]] considerations. Soon after the Enterprise-D left, the Ornarans went through a painful withdrawal period.


Soon after the Enterprise-D left, the Ornarans went through a painful withdrawal period.
Now, they are struggling to try and regain all the knowledge and technical skills they lost over 2 centuries of enforced slavery to an intense drug addiction.
 
==Government==
They have an elected unified government that was considered to be very democratic and responsible. As expected after two centuries of intense drug addiction by every citizen on the planet those ideals have long since ceased to be. Now the elective government struggles to try and perform their duties, often falling far short of their goals - as such, individual countries or provinces have established their own leadership as they attempt to modernize the governmental structure already in place.
 
==Description==
Ornarans are distinguished from humans by a distinctive nasal bridge that contains no dip, remaining flat between the eyes. As children, they can be a lot shorter than the average height for a human child, growing a little faster once they've hit puberty.
 
==Physiology==
As with most intelligent humanoid species they have a very complex system with specialized organs, and unique hormones, chemicals and enzymes.
 
===Electrical Discharge===
Just like the Brekkians, they have the unique ability to provide a limited electrical discharge from the hands. However, this does produce a great strain to the individual discharging the electricity. On the other hand, it can incapacitate the unwary.
 
===Ornaran plague===
The Ornaran plague was a disease that struck Ornara in the 22nd century. The only cure was felicium, a drug refined from a plant indigenous to the planet Brekka. All attempts to cultivate the plant on Ornara failed, leading to a trade pact between the Ornarans and Brekkians that lasted at least two centuries.
 
==Psychology==
Originally, they were an intelligent, resourceful and creative people. However due to two centuries of intense drug addiction it is no wonder that the creative and intelligent aspect seems to have been stifled and some believe permanently damaged.
 
Federation experts are intently observing their post drug addiction recovery in the hopes that it may help shed some light on the long term adverse effects of drug addiction.  


==Religion==
==Religion==
Due to the effects of the felicium, the Ornarans dropped all religious concerns. It's unknown whether or not they are religious.
Due to the effects of the felicium, the Ornarans dropped all religious concerns. It's unknown whether or not they have been able to rebuild any religious beliefs in the wake of their recovery from two centuries of intense drug addiction. However, based on what little data has been available it does not seem likely that they have or even will attempt to do so.
 
==Mythology==
Due to two centuries of intense drug addiction many computer records and other historical data have been lost. This is mainly due to their slow regression and failure to maintain, repair or build newer computers or data storage devices.
 
As a result the only historical and mythological records to survive are those that were still available in some kind of primitive, none technological form.
 
==Society==
Gradually regaining semblance of colour, the Ornaran people are the most stable they've ever been. There have been astounding advancements with their technology, much of which is gauged to tackle an ongoing crime problem. Since the dark ages of their addiction, they seem to have negotiated with the [[Ferengi]] for the adoption of the latinum currency.
 
Addictive substances have been either severely taxed or banned altogether.<ref>''"[[SIM:Five Long Years#Zhou Tai-Sheng: Four|Five Long Years]]"'', various, {{USS|Garuda}}, SD 239205.16</ref>
 
==Culture==
After two centuries of intense drug addiction, very few old traditions and productions of art and music survived. For that matter all of the various artistic art forms have been abandoned and what little art they have left is that which the Brekkians deemed to be unfit for trade. All creative pieces are new, produced by young Ornarans during the last few decades. Creative and artistic expression through music, dance and visual arts is slowly returning.
 
In fact, many Ornaran cultures are being led forward by younger Ornarans who were only considered secondary victims to the dark age, witness to parental felicium addiction but saved from such pain themselves. With this experience, they are generally an accepting culture, happy to provide what assistance they can for reforming addicts from all species and cultures - the planet itself has become somewhat of a retreat from such lifestyles.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-invicta/TyBxq6PJN6I/EZiEVD8kBgAJ ''"Running out of paddles."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Invicta}}, SD 239309.27</ref>
 
==Customs==
Just as with culture they allowed their customs to wither and die due to their two centuries of intense drug addiction. As a result, they currently do not seem to remember or care to try and recreate those customs that were documented in the past. This may be due to the fact that most of those records did not survive the slow deterioration of all their high tech data storage systems.
 
==Technology==
The Ornarans achieved space travel 200 years ago. Although some ships remain functional, the knowledge of how to build them has been lost. The same seems to be true for most of their technological advances.
 
==Economy==
Their entire trade system used to be based on their intense drug addiction - as a result they were trading away almost all of their production and excessive food supplies in exchange for the drug felicium. Years after this dark age, however, they have begun production of new technology for trade, much of which with Ferengi. The city of [[Bintac]] is also known for a world-famous diner which serves to draw in tourists.
 
With the return of art and architecture on the planet, much of the planet has become somewhat of a tourist attraction, or for some, a retreat away from a tempting lifestyle.
 
==Military==
Though tensions with the Brekkians is high, the Ornarans have yet to develop a military presence for their planet. Freighters produced on Ornara do not have offensive capabilities.
 
Certain areas of Ornara do, however, have a significant police force, their primary objective being scrubbing felicium from Ornaran streets. So far, they've been fairly successful. With an increase of off-planet visitors, they've also begun creating security ports for visitors to pass through, concerned with potential Brekkian attacks. These areas are the safest places on Ornara.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-invicta/Ws2fa4y2jnA/UqQDDR3XBAAJ ''"Yze."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Invicta}}, SD 239311.15</ref>

History

The recent history of the Ornarans and the Brekkians has been intertwined, but for centuries, the two cultures developed independently.

At one time, the Ornarans were the more advanced society, diverging from the development of Brekka approximately 2,000 years ago. Two centuries ago, the Ornarans technology reached the point where they had developed space travel.

A cure was discovered on Brekka through the refinement of felicium; this was rapidly used as a curative for the entire Brekkian population, and space travel permitted the felicium to be passed on to the Ornaran population. Unfortunately, the plant resisted all attempts at cultivation on Ornana.

In addition to its curative effect, felicium also has highly addictive properties. The Brekkians avoided consumption once all traces of the plague had been eradicated on Brekka, but, fully cognizant of its narcotic qualities, they were quite happy to continue supplying the felicium to the inhabitants of Ornara, who believe themselves dependent on regular supplies of the drug to prevent a recurrence of the plague.
