Ckaptir

The Ckaptirs were a humanoid species.

History

In the early 24th century, a Ckaptir was among the visitors to the Baraam space station. (Star Trek: Section 31)

According to a holographic re-creation of the events, Ckaptirs served in Starfleet before the Burn, by the time Kaminar joined the United Federation of Planets. (DIS: "Su'Kal")

In 3188, a Ckaptir trader was present at the Mercantile marketplace in Requiem, Hima. (DIS: "That Hope Is You, Part 1")

After the Burn, by 3189, many members of the species served as Starfleet officers. (DIS: "Die Trying", "Scavengers", "There Is A Tide..."). In 3190, a Ckaptir cadet joined the newly reopened Starfleet Academy. (DIS: "Kobayashi Maru")

Later that year, Ckaptir representatives were present at the Multilateral DMA Strategy Assembly and voted against diplomacy with Species 10-C. (DIS: "...But to Connect") The next year they participated in the Millennium Celebration at Federation Headquarters. (DIS: "Red Directive")

In 3191, a Ckaptir archivist worked at the Eternal Gallery and Archive. (DIS: "Labyrinths")

Close-up of symbol and name

The name of the species was not spoken on screen, but was seen on a delegate's voting holo and a voting tally in "...But to Connect". A close-up of the tally was later released by graphic designer Timothy Peel. [1]

The prosthetics for the species were designed by Glenn Hetrick. Images of the head sculpt can be seen on the Alchemy Studios website. [2]

According to Timothy Peel, their homeworld, pictured on a hologram in "Red Directive", was the planet Ckaptir II. [3]
