The Araldii (Sgl. Araldon) are a non-humanoid alien species which first made peaceful contact with the United Federation of Planets in 2381.
History and specifics[]
Native to Aralda, a planet twice the size of Earth but having only two-thirds its gravity, they are a technologically advanced culture whose astrophysicists are on a level with those of the Federation. They have no skeletal system but adaptive muscle bundles that served supportive function, three-fingered hands, pale blue skin and two mouths, a primary mouth for talking and a secondary mouth in about the mid-chin region, only for eating and drinking. Their soft whispering voices are hard to hear. They also have dark blue, tiger-like stripes, which however form no natural part of their bodies but are a sort of technology functioning as communicator, transponder, tricorder and weapon. All crewmembers of the ship that met with the USS Titan were females. (TOS novel: Captain's Glory)
