Khulli

The Khulli are an insectoid species which live in Terran Federation space. An unspecified disaster caused them to flee their homeworld in a severely damaged vessel. On May 9th 2159, the vessel, with a population of 5 million crash-landed on the colony of Ymir, resulting in two hundred human and khulli deaths. The Terran Federation government gave the remnants refuge on the planet, an action protested by many colonists. The Ymir Colonial Legislature exiled 3 Million Khulli to the lunar colony of Selene, where they lived in peace with the colonists. The election of governor Zeus Fralgin led to the exiles being welcomed back to Ymir, where the population continued to grow. Eventually, the Khulli became one of the four most species to populate the Terran Federation.
