The S'ti'ach, sometimes also spelled Sti'ach, are a species native to the planet S'ti'ach'aas in either the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. They were a little under a meter tall and covered in blue fur, which gave many taller humanoid species the perception of them being cute - teddy bear like - they were in fact however a predatory species not known for their sweet disposition. By the late-24th century the S'ti'ach were a Federation member race. (TTN novels: Taking Wing, Orion's Hounds)
