As to the Farrendahl... If the nomenclature serves (the definition definitely does), they are one of the oldest spacefaring races. The entire race now resides in various mobile planetoids scattered throughout the galaxy. They keep mostly to themselves and only interfere in galaxy-wide emergencies. They are portrayed humanoid cats with stooped shoulders (it looks extremely uncomfortable and with all their knowldge you think they could fix it). They once enlisted the aid of the Kirk and Spock (and other races) to retrieve a holy symbol belonging to another culture (name escapes me) before that race began a holy war with the galaxy. This is from an animated episode of Star Trek (I seem to recall the words "Jem" and "Bem". "Bem" is wrong and "Jem" may just be from the episode with the deaf-mute empath...)
