Lorealyn V was a planet, the fifth planet of the Lorealyn system, located within the Organian Treaty Zone in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants.

In the year 2270, scientists saw potential use with the planet's crystals in transwarp propulsion systems, making the system a diplomatic flashpoint. (FASA RPG module: Star Trek IV Sourcebook Update)
Diplomats invited the system's interplanetary humanoid natives to join the Federation, but the Klingon Empire countered by offering warp engine technology, starship-building expertise, and control of two adjacent Klingon-held planets. The Federation Council dispatched Ambassador Carlos Rivera to the system with a sweeping proposal to clinch Federation membership. (FASA RPG - Adventure Book module: In the Presence of My Enemies)
