NotesImagesDatapoints
TimelinePeople
Universe : Prime Timeline
Species Name : Choblik [1]
Quadrant : Alpha

A Federation member species, the Choblik are bipedal, approximately a metre high. They resemble a short, furred ostrich with a herbivore's head, a short neck, and a long prehensile tail. They lack arms, instead using mechanical appendages. [1] Their eyes and other senses are also enhanced, allowing them to perceive a great range of information, up to and including shifts in the quantum field [2]

In and of themselves, Choblik are non-sentient. They achieve sentience via further cybernetic enhancements in their brains. The origin of these enhancements is lost to history; the Choblik themselves believe that an alien species visited their planet in the distant past and 'uplifted' the Choblik. They refer to these aliens as the 'Great Builders'. [1]

The Choblik regard themselves as ultimate rationalists, unable to believe anything unless it is supported by empirical evidence. [1] Referring to a Choblik as an excellent problem-solver is considered to be one of the greatest compliments that they can receive. [3]

Choblik display trust by rolling their neck in a manner which exposes their jugular, making them vulnerable to attack. [3]
