The Lumerians are a humanoid species, clearly noticable by their distinctive forehead markings. They are presumedly a member of the Federation and became introduced in the TNG episode "[[Man of the People]]" , represented by the lumerian envoy Ves Alkar. As a species they are gifted with [[empathic]] abilities, but are usually restricted in the use of this empathy to other Lumerians and alien empaths/telepaths. Some Lumerians seem to be able to ritually form a psionic bond with another person, giving him/her the option to "dump" bad feelings and other "mental waste" onto the bond partner.

Ves Alkar

Ambassador Ves Alkar in 2369.

The Lumerians are a humanoid species, clearly noticable by their distinctive forehead markings. As a species they are gifted with empathic abilities, but are usually restricted in the use of this empathy to other Lumerians and alien empaths/telepaths. Some Lumerians seem to be able to ritually form a psionic bond with another person, giving him/her the option to "dump" bad feelings and other "mental waste" onto the bond partner. The latter one usually suffers from severely accelerated aging and agressive behaviour. The ritual is performed with the help of a crystalline stone, that seems to enhance the psionic output of the rituals participants. (TNG: "Man of the People")
