Thri-Kreen

Nomadic and dangerous, the Thri-Kreen are a insectoid race, known for their harsh worlds and harsher attitude towards outsiders. While residing on their home planet of Kreen, they were contacted by the Federation and offered the olive branch. When this peace offering was rejected, the federation offered it again, warning of the dangers of crossing them. Stubbornly, the Thri-Kreen rebelled and started a great war that engulfed their system. While space-fairing and dangerous, prolonging what the Federation thought would be a quick fight into a ten year war, they could not contend with the might of the Federation, with their home planet of Kreen being rendered entirely uninhabitable by a Federation based neurotoxin that wiped out forces on the planet. The Thri-Kreen were then forcibly conscripted into the Federation's ranks while the women and children of the race migrated to a nearby planet, now placated by the might of the Federation
