Mazarite

The Mazarites are a species from the planet Mazar. Mazarites are humanoid, with two folded skin flaps on the sides of their faces that ran from their eyebrows and surrounded their ears and under their temples. Most Mazarites have dark hair with streaks of white hair.

Prior to the formation of the United Federation of Planets the Mazarite government was allied with the Confederacy of Vulcan. (ENT episode: "Fallen Hero")

History

The Klingon scientist Antaak once disguised himself as a Mazarite in order to attend an Interspecies Medical Exchange conference on Tiburon. (ENT episode: "Affliction")

In the early 2150s Vulcan Ambassador V'Lar was assigned to assist the Mazarite government in rooting out corruption. After collecting enough evidence her contacts in the government brought fake charges against her and had her expelled from Mazar so that she would be safe on Vulcan until a trial could be held. The Mazarite criminals she was investigating pursued V'Lar while she was aboard the Enterprise. Before those Mazarites could harm her, the Vulcan starship Sh'Raan came to the rescue. (ENT episode: "Fallen Hero")

Thanks to evidence provided by V'Lar the Mazarites were later able to move against organized crime syndicates at work on their world. One of these groups was the Zankor Syndicate, which allied itself with the Orion Syndicate following the founding of the Federation. (ENT - Rise of the Federation novel: Tower of Babel)
