  • The Napean are a species native to the Alpha or Beta Quadrants. They have a large, leaf-shaped forehead ridge and were partially empathic. (TNG episode: "Eye of the Beholder") There is a tiny egg-shaped organ near the base of the brain on all Napeans due to a genetically engineered mutation that provides these empathic abilities. (Decipher RPG module: Aliens) The Napeans speak Napea. Napeans are generally scientists and engineers who are experts at terraforming. (Decipher RPG module: Aliens)
  • The Napeans were a partially empathic race from the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. Their physical appearance was similar to most humanoids except for their large, leaf-shaped forehead ridge. Starfleet Lieutenant Daniel Kwan was a half-Human and half-Napean hybrid. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder" ) A crewmember serving on board the Nebula-class USS Lexington was also of Napean descent. (DS9: "Explorers") Another Napean was part of Kasidy Yates' crew aboard the Xhosa. (DS9: "Family Business")

  • The Napean are a species native to the Alpha or Beta Quadrants. They have a large, leaf-shaped forehead ridge and were partially empathic.

  • The Napeans were a partially empathic race from the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. Their physical appearance was similar to most humanoids except for their large, leaf-shaped forehead ridge. Starfleet Lieutenant Daniel Kwan was a half-Human and half-Napean hybrid. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder" ) A crewmember serving on board the Nebula-class USS Lexington was also of Napean descent. (DS9: "Explorers") Another Napean was part of Kasidy Yates' crew aboard the Xhosa. (DS9: "Family Business") According to Daniel Kwan's personnel file seen in the episode, Daniel Kwan was a native of Psi Upsilon IV. Napeans have appeared in several novels and in the video game Star Trek: Elite Force II, where a Napean is the chief of security for Starfleet Academy. According to Star Trek: Star Charts ("United Federation of Planets I"), there was a Federation member world named Napea, which might possibly be the planet of origin for this species.
