Species Template: Breen
By Owen E. Oulton

The Breen are a mystery race - very few people know exactly what they look like. Non-aligned until 2373, the Breen joined the Dominion War on the side of the Founders, and gradually replaced the Cardassians as the Founders' primary Alpha Quadrant ally. The Breen are universally regarded as treacherous and untrustworthy - a Romulan proverb advises "Never turn your back on a Breen."

Although the Breen are never seen without their refrigerated environmental suits, it is reported by surviving senior Cardassian personnel that according to Weyoun - a Vorta aide to the female Founder who enlisted their aide in the war - the refrigeration suits are unnecessary, the Breen being perfectly capable of existing in a temperate environment. Why they maintain this ruse is unknown.

Editor's Notes
For another take on the Breen, check out Patrick Murphy's version, but Owen has capitalized on additional info on the Breen made available after the release of that template.
