Therin of Andor,
captain of the USS
Hood, welcomes
you to his people's
blue sector of
cyberspace.

"The azure blue Andorian countenance, typically topped by a shock of albino white hair and blue antennae, has proven to be a startling sight for most sentient aliens meeting us for the first time. Additionally, we are proudly aggressive by nature. Our warrior prowess is often underestimated due to our (usually) slender bodies and soft, lisping voices. Many Andorians listen with the head slightly bowed forward, which again gives many races the idea that we are a subservient species. Believe that at your own peril.

"However, we of Andoria, and our major colony worlds of Epsilon Indi VIII and Epsilon Indi IV, are also proud to be a part of this wider community known as the United Federation of Planets and we gladly serve upon Starfleet vessels for the common betterment of hominids throughout the Alpha, Beta and Gamma Quadrants.

"As captain of the USS Hood during a most exciting period of Starfleet history (from 2272 - 2293), I was honoured to serve alongside some of Starfleet's finest. Presented through these pages will be fictionalised extracts from the logs of the USS Hood and research articles into the Andorian race. May the contents enlighten, educate and amuse you...

"Over the years, this site will continue to grow. A current highlight is a re-presentation of a popular piece of xenoanthropological research into Andorians by the renowned Terran, Leslie Fish, entitled A Summary of the Physiological Roots of Andorian Culture."
