Members of the Federation.

New member: the Norlak Resurgancy, from Star Trek: Preserver. One of the newest members of the Federation in 2375.
 
I think this thread is specifically for tracking Federation members in the Litverse? (Meaning the interconnected continuity that's been going on since Avatar, that is.) Though that's good to know for anyone that wants to throw a wider net for their own reference. :D

Right, Litverse only! I tend to forget because I'm always eager to find out the members.
 
Haha, same here; I almost did the same myself a couple times. :D

If you have some more, come forth! I don't think there's any harm in collecting all members we come across as long as we keep the master list pure TrekLit. Plus, it's the thread is great to verify sources for the Memory Beta list of members.
 
Haha, if I remember what it was then yeah; since they weren't Novelverse I didn't actually note them down. :p

Probably in the recent standalone TOS books, but I'd have to reread them to be sure.
 
There's quite a few from the RPGs, so not just "litverse".
I didn't see Saroming, revealed in First Frontier to be the Alpha Centuaran's name for themselves.
From FASA (strange what did and did not port from there): Tiburons, Kaferians, Makosians - emotional Vulcans who emigrated to Makus III and some human survivors of the Vegan Tyranny, IIRC, Joridian, New Parisian, Izaran (Izar was a joint Alphan Centauri / Terran colony).
Kshatriyans from Corona - related to Vulcans Romulans, and Orions.
I'm sure there's many more.

I think any of the RPG mentions are just places where a Litverse author mentioned something in one of their works that was originally from an RPG source, not referencing the RPG directly. But this thread was meant by Nasat to be Litverse-specific, yeah. That's why it doesn't have stuff like a native Centauran race that older materials such as what you mention described, since that's not a direction the Litverse went with, instead going with Alpha Centauri being a human colony.
 
Inspired by this thread, I've created a Pinterest board just for Federation Members and have reached 119 different species--just the ones that I can find images for (or at least their equivalent).
 
In the same way as the Lahit from Diane Duane's "Doctor's Orders" were mentioned in a modern novel, are any of the Denebian species from "My Enemy, My Ally" mentioned in any of the more modern novels?

The races are the Klaha, the Eyren, the !'hew and the Deirr. They served on the Federation Defender class starship USS Inaieu.

A Deirr is among the Federation delegation to Kropasar in S.C.E. #62: The Future Begins.
 
New member: the Keorgans of Keorga. Eight-fingered people. The scientist who invented their warp drive brought them into the Federation at some point before 2376. Source: SCE "Some Assembly Required".
 
I'm a little confused. What exactly is the "Litverse"? Some kind of subset of licensed novels? Is there a list of them somewhere or an article that talks about them?

Is this thread about the Litverse, even though it talks about the "Novelverse"? Do those two terms refer to different things?

Edit: Been slogging through that Novelverse thread and encountered this link in Thrawn's signature. Less confused now!
