BOLIANS
Bolians come from the planet Bolarus IX. They are a race of bald, blue-skinned
humanoids with a prominent ridge running down the center of their heads and bodies.
Only young females possess any body hair, and that only on their scalps. They
evolved from an aquatic race and are still very at home in the water, although
they are fully comfortable on land.
Bolians are staunch allies of the Federation. Several have risen to positions
of great importance in the Federation and in Starfleet. Many turn their liability
of racial curiosity into an advantage by occupying research or investigative jobs.
They have only recently made peace with the Moropans, a rival race, although this
peace is fragile one.
Perhaps as a consequence for being hairless, a few Bolians display an odd fascination
for humanoid hair, and go on to become hairdressers. Mot, on the Enterprise-D,
was one such. Of course, the fact that humanoids often tell their hair dressers
things they wouldn't tell anyone else hasn't been lost on them...
