The creatures were thought to be extinct by [[23rd Century#2266|2266]], until they attacked [[Hfihar Mining Facility]] in [[2409]]. ==Culture== Nothing is known about the creatures' culture, however they do seem to be intelligent. They require sodium chloride (salt) to survive, and will kill anything within reach to gain it if they are desperate enough. They extract the salt from their victims using several sucker-like feeding organs on their fingers, leaving painful-looking circular red marks on the victim's skin. The creatures also have the ability to morph into seemingly any humanoid form they wish, allowing them to impersonate various individuals. ==History== ===Origins=== Little is known about the origins of the species, except that it is native to the planet {{MAlpha|M-113}}. ===23rd century=== Scientists Professor {{MAlpha|Robert Crater}} and his wife, {{MAlpha|Nancy Crater}}, moved to the planet M-113 in [[23rd Century#2261|2261]], to conduct surveys on the ruins there. One of the creatures, thought to be the last of its kind, killed Nancy Crater in [[23rd Century#2264|2264]] or [[23rd Century#2265|2265]]. It was content to leave Professor Crater alone so long as he fed it salt, and he did not kill it so long as it posed as his wife. In [[23rd Century#2266|2266]], the {{USS|Enterprise}} was visiting the planet to conduct routine medical exams on the Craters. The creature, still posing as Nancy Crater, managed to board the ''Enterprise'' by killing and then posing as an officer. After impersonating and killing several others, it was finally shot and killed by Dr. [[Leonard McCoy]]. ===25th century=== After the incident in 2266, the species was thought to be extinct until a multitude of these creatures appeared and attacked the [[Hfihar Mining Facility]] in the [[Hfihar System]] in [[2409]]. Currently, it is not known how these creatures arrived on the planet; however, they appear to be genetically altered to derive their salt intake from the copper-based blood of [[Romulan]]s. == Missions Involved == * {{mission|Arena of Sompek}}: Species M-113 feature as one of the enemy waves players can face. * {{Mission|Colony Invasion Simulation}}: Species M-113 is one of the possible foes. == Missions formerly involved == * {{mission|Mine Trap}}: The [[Hfihar Mining Facility]] is attacked by Species M-113. The players must protect the colonists and assist in evacuation efforts. ** This mission was added in [[Season Seven: New Romulus]], but removed in [[Season Eleven: New Dawn]]. They can now only be found in the Arena of Sompek and sometimes in the Colony Invasion Simulation. ===External links=== {{MA Link|M-113 creature}} {{MB Link|M-113 creature}} [[Category:Races|M-113]] [[Category:Non-player races|M-113]]
