They are very human-looking, the only notable difference in appearance being the lack of heterogeneity among them. After chaotic past, they have turned their society to what is often described as “a paradise” characterized by concepts of peace and free love. However, they also uphold strict laws that required death penalty for all crimes. Their planet is protected by a transdimensional entity they worship as God. | ||

The Edo practice a strange mixture of hedonistic sexuality and have a puritanical respect for a draconian legal code. Because of this, all Edo are incredibly law-abiding.

Though they are space-faring today, the Edo are protected by a trans-dimensional super-entity in orbit around their planet, which they worship as God.

The Edo God considers the Edo to be their children and has been hostile to potential threats to the Edo.<ref>[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Edo_God Edo God], Memory Alpha</ref> | Though they are space-faring today, the Edo are protected by a trans-dimensional super-entity in orbit around their planet, which they worship as God.
