The Valens are a highly noble and cultured race that live on close side of the Beta quadrant. They are often called vampires in slang by humans due to their similarities between them and ancient creatures of Romanian and Egyptian folk tales and myth.
Sometime thousands of years ago they developed two conditions that spreed and evolved into their DNA over a few generations. The first made them unable to go in ultraviolet light due to the the orbit of the planet changing and Valen thrown into internal night. The second is the one at the highest price, their blood supply drains over the day and they have a daily need to replenish their blood supply.
In the early years this caused savagery, they evolved longer canine teeth that linked directly to their veins to replenish blood and they attacked and killed each over in a savage rage unable to control the hunger. As their technology and civilization grew they became more civilized. They now feed from the blood of animals and killing became illegal. Tho a starved Valen is a dangerous Valen. Modern Valen's use replicator technology traded to them by the federation to replicate warm blood to meet their needs. Half Valens (Kal Dutton) do not need blood to survive and can walk in sunlight however blood is pleasurable to them and they have it as a treat. Due to their night time setting they also evolved cat like eyes or yellow, ice blue and green.
They are a very secretive race and do not wish to join the federation, they dress very handsomely and their world architecture is one of greatest in the galaxy, living in temples and shines like buildings with status of folk tale, battles and historic figures.
Their ships are winged, of with wings fold when landed. With a main body in the middle resembling a curved bird body, their ships regarded as beautiful and powerful.
Valens are the dark mysterious creatures of the galaxy and live among the shadows..
