Humanoid civilization native to planet Talax in the Delta Quadrant. The Talaxians surrendered to the Haakonian Order in 2356 after a decade-long war was ended by the deployment of the metreon cascade, a deadly weapon that killed over 300,000 Talaxians on Rinax. Talaxians who came in contact with the fallout from the metreon cascade suffered metremia, a deadly blood disease. The Talaxian respiratory system is directly linked to multiple points along the spinal column. It is a tradition in Talaxian society to share the history of a meal before eating. It was seen as a way of enhancing the culinary experience. Each year, the Talaxian people observe a holiday they call Prixin, a celebration of their families. The Talaxian people traditionally mourn their dead for a full week in a burial ceremony. Many Talaxian believe that upon dead they will go to a beautiful place called the Great Forrest.
