View source for Vorans

Spindly barely humanoid aliens. Identified by the Borg as [[Species 8472]], Vorans are a faction that left fluidic space to explore the galaxy. They settled on the planet [[Voran]] in the Beta Quadrant. Years of mocking and torment led made them bitter and caused them to create a powerful, ruthless Imperium that spread terror throughout the galaxy. ("[[The Dark Fleet]], [[The Lesser of Two Evils]]" [BAN]). Vorans are nonetheless capable of considerable affection towards outsiders. One example is Warlord [[Sorinak]], who fell in love with Starship Banshee head scientist [[Dr. Elizabeth Lang]] over a subspace chat service. ("[[Cupid's Arrow]]" [BAN]). Other Vorans believe that they should not continue to torment others and that they should no longer seek the conquest of the galaxy. One such person is Captain [[Jevon]] of the warship [[Sivax]], who destroyed his ship and himself with it to stop the [[Vorans]] from taking over the Federation. ("[[Dark Horizon]]" [BAN]). Vorans are carnivorous and feast mainly of insects. A delicacy of theirs is [[Flarn]], cooked a number of different ways. Flarn are a ruthless Delta Quadrant species who ironically eat Humans. ("[[The Dark Fleet Part II]]" [BAN], "[[The Road To Nowhere - Pt. 2]]" [VEX]).
