Kreetassan
The Kreetassan were a warp capable humanoid civilization native to the planet Kreetassia in the
Alpha Quadrant. When a ship is in orbit of Kreetassa, it is, as a courtesy, expected to align its
chronometers with that of the Kreetassan Capital City.
The Kreetassan language is very complex by Human standards. The words for eat and mate are very
similar. They consider eating in public a taboo. It is something to be performed privately in the same
manner as mating. Kreetassan are often offended when they see other species eating their food in
public. Individuals who have regular contact with other species grow accustomed to the sight but
never participate in what they consider to be a vulgar display.
On the Kreetassan homeworld in front of the Hall of Diplomacy stands a row of Alvera trees that are
over 300 years old, which are considered cultural treasures by the Kreetassan. Defacing them in
anyway is a major offence to their people, however, if it is done accidentally, there is a special
apologizing ceremony that involves cutting the tree into many pieces.
Kreetassan are famous for manufacturing plasma injectors, and conduct brisk trade throughout
the sector for them and other starship components.
