Unique Traits:

Ferasans are a genetically augmented felinoid species from Ferasa Prime that split from the Caitian race 800 years ago.

Culture

The Ferasans and Caitians were once a unified species, but an extensive genetic engineering program has greatly modified the Ferasan genome. Ferasans consider themselves to be superior to Caitians, and most relish the chance to prove that superiority in combat. Ferasan society is dominated by clans of inter-related family groups who band together for defense and conquest. Loyalty is highly prized among Ferasans, although betrayals are common. The greatest honor a Ferasan can give to a clanmate or Captain is to remain faithful through adversity. Ferasans are a playable race in Star Trek Online for the KDF, however they must be unlocked from the Zen Store for 600 .

Physiology

Unlike Caitians, Ferasans are saber-toothed and some have telepathic abilities. They are bipedal, have tails that assist their balance, extended maxillary canine teeth and large eyes with excellent night vision. Their skin is covered with a soft fur coat, and their felinoid ears can pick up frequencies that most humanoids are unable to detect.

Notes

• Using an Elite Bridge Officer Training Token on a Ferasan Bridge Officer allows the player to pick the Pounce trait for said officer.
• The Ferasans are based on the Kzinti from the Star Trek: The Animated Series episode "The Slaver Weapon". However, instead of directly implementing the race under this name, Cryptic had to choose "Ferasan" due to legal issues. Unlike Kzinti females, Ferasan females are fully sentient.
• From 24 to 25 May 2021 on PC, and a later date on console, the Ferasan playable species is available for free as part of a four-day giveaway in the lead up to the release of House United.
