Controller Emck, a Malon male
Malon script
The Malon were an economically-motivated humanoid species from Malon Prime in the Delta Quadrant, first encountered by the USS Voyager in 2375.
Physiology
The Malon had broad noses with distinctly-shaped nostrils, and their skin was a yellowish-brown color. Their foreheads had a slight ridge-like protrusion. They also had brown hair which was usually thick and wavy when they are young, but like in Humans receding hairlines and baldness occurred in older Malon. Their hair follicles grow from the mid part of their heads, just after the ridge-like pattern.
Malon waste exporters had many sores on their skin due to theta radiation exposure. The Malon used analeptic compound injections to counter the freighter blight, but while the treatment kept them alive, it did not prevent skin scarring.
History
Although technologically advanced, the Malon lack the technology to recycle antimatter waste, which emitted hazardous theta radiation. Therefore, this hazardous waste was dumped in open space in vast quantities by waste export vessels. The Malon attempted to find uninhabited regions for this waste, but this was not always the case. (VOY: "Night") The Malons were self-proclaimed experts at salvage operations. (VOY: "Extreme Risk")
