Mazarite captain

A Mazarite male

The Mazarites are a humanoid species native to the planet Mazar. They are distinguished by two folded skin flaps on the sides of their faces that run from their eyebrows and surround their ears and under their temples. Mazarites also have dark hair with streaks of white hair swept back from the temples, along the sides. At least for men, their hair is usually worn pulled back into a ponytail.

Hair designer Michael Moore made the Mazarites' hairstyles so that their ponytails were Samurai-styled locks and their white-streaked side hair was inspired by the character of Paulie Gualtieri on the television series The Sopranos. (Star Trek: Communicator issue 152, p. 31)

History

In 2149, the Klingon scientist Antaak disguised himself as a Mazarite and attended an IME conference on Tiburon. (ENT: "Affliction")

In 2152, Vulcan Ambassador V'Lar was investigating corruption in the Mazarite government. When she collected enough findings to prosecute them, she asked to be extracted. So that the Mazarites she was investigating would not pursue her, fake charges were brought against her and she was taken, under arrest, back to Vulcan. The Mazarites, however, did pursue her while she was aboard the Earth starship Enterprise. Before the Mazarites could harm her, the Vulcan starship Sh'Raan came to the rescue. (ENT: "Fallen Hero")

Technology

In the 2150s, the Mazarites were technologically comparable to Humans. Their ships were only a little faster than Starfleet ships, able to reach warp 5.2. They also possessed deflector shields and communications-jamming technology. (ENT: "Fallen Hero")
