Nalori Republic. Government consisting of several planets near Sector 969. Among the member races of the republic are the Nalori, the Osina, and the Cabbi. Traditional Nalori culture practices polygamy, and women have a much lower place in the social strata than men. The Federation and the Nalori had a border clash some time in the 2100s. The Nalori refused to allow any Federation passage through their space, and relations were strained until 2376, when they requested help from Starfleet in constructing a subpsace accelerator on the planet Sarindar. The Starfleet Corps of Engineers sent Commander Sonya Gomez, on the recommendation of Montgomery Scott. The Nalori government is made up of senators, and government contracts, such as working on the SA project, are among the most lucrative. The government also has the power to keep someone from working, not only on government contracts, but any others as well (Invincible Book 1).
Nasats. Insectoid race. Nasats have eight limbs and a chitinous outer armor (“Jihad” [TAS]). Nasats make assorted tinkling noises to indicate emotion that many non-Nasats have trouble distinguishing, although many of P8 Blue’s shipmates on the U.S.S. da Vinci are able to differentiate them (Cold Fusion). Nasats were first seen in “Jihad,” in the form of the character Em/3/Green. The name for the race was first given in The Belly of the Beast.
Nemar. Language with similarities to the Omearan tongue (Hard Crash).
Nevari. A race that builds viewships that include observation areas that work on the same principle as the rings on the ship nicknamed “the Beast” (The Belly of the Beast).
Nog. Chief operations officer of Station Deep Space 9. Nog lost his left leg in the Dominion War (“The Siege at AR-558” [DS9]). It was replaced by a biosynthetic leg (“It’s Only a Paper Moon” [DS9]), which sometimes gets a psychosomatic itch in times of stress (Cold Fusion). After Colonel Kira Nerys was forced to eject DS9’s fusion core (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Avatar Book 2), Nog thought of retrieving a new one from DS9’s abandoned sister station Empok Nor. He took the runabout Rio Grande to the Trivas system to rendezvous with the Starfleet Corps of Engineers team on the U.S.S. da Vinci to aid in the salvage (Cold Fusion). Nog was not happy about returning to the station where he was almost killed twice, once by a Cardassian booby trap (“Empok Nor” [DS9]), once by Jem’Hadar (“The Magnificent Ferengi” [DS9]). He was equally unhappy with the condescending attitude the S.C.E. took toward him, though that attitude changed after he proved his mettle, both in engineering terms and against the Androssi pirates who had beaten them to the station. After Nog and the da Vinci crew drove off the Androssi, they discovered that the fusion core could not be towed back to the station; Nog instead came up with the plan to tow the entire station back to the Bajoran system. He also had to convince nine Starfleet captains to lend their ships to the massive towing effort. Most were willing, though he had to bribe Captain Jenna Demitrijian of the U.S.S. Sugihara with a recording of Sinnravian drad music, which he obtained from Carol Abramowitz for an as-yet-undetermined price (Cold Fusion). Nog led the convoy back to DS9 and placed Empok Nor in orbit around one of Bajor’s moons once the fusion core transfer was complete (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Section 31: Abyss).
Nomis. Worker assigned to the subspace accelerator project on
