Background Information
HOMEWORLD: Haliia
Haliia is a lush Class M planet. They tend to be dark-skinned and have a slight bony protrusion in the center of their brow ridges, but otherwise appear human.

HALIIAN CHARACTERS
Haliians are known as an artistic and graceful people, valuing form over function. They live for the moment and thus tend to be impulsive, which can make them hard for other species to relate to.

HALIIAN ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Although the canar is the most famous Haliian crystal, many other crystals can be found in various caves on Haliia. These crystals tend to produce harmonious tones when lightly struck. Their music is eerie and relaxing to most species. Haliian musicians either harvest crystals for or grow crystals for their musical instruments.

HISTORICAL FIGURES
Turani is a famous Haliian musician, whose signature ethereal music is easily recognized by many throughout the Federation.

NEW EQUIPMENT: Canar
A Canar is a naturally-occurring Haliian crystal which allows a telepath to focus his or her psychic ability. Haliians get a +4 (other telepaths get a +2) bonus to telepathy skill rolls if both the telepath and target are touching the same canar. Half this bonus if the subject is unwilling. Canars are fragile, and are often stored in decorative cases.
