Arietan

Arietans were a species of humanoids from the planet Arietes IV, a planet inducted into the United Federation of Planets in 2335.

Arietans feature elongated faces with prominent skull extensions that, on some members of the species, resemble the antlers of the Cervidae family of Earth animals. This, combined with a short and coarse fur skin covering for some, gives them a vaguely deer like appearance to humans.

Having evolved from a herd centric prey-species, Arietans are generally prone to avoiding conflict and have an intense commitment to family security. As a result, few Arietans leave their homeworld, though a few do, usually with the general goal of proactively advancing their species' security before threats can reach their homeworld.
