Level 5 aliens[]
Alien man 1 []
This yellow-skinned man was dressed in a maroon hood and blue frock. His flesh was mottled with brown and gray spots and he possessed no discernible nose or nostrils.
When approached by Enterprise officers Lieutenant Malcolm Reed and Ensign Travis Mayweather, the man claimed to have seen the Klingon Klaang. He persuaded Reed and Mayweather to watch the butterfly dancers' show and even offered to introduce them. The Humans declined. (ENT: "Broken Bow")
Butterfly dancers []
The butterfly dancers were entertainers at the Rigel X trade complex, performing an exotic dance while catching and eating butterflies with their long tongues.
Both women were nearly identical, with one being mostly blue in color, and the other mostly pink. Their faces were white above the mouth, and their hair matched their colorful skin tone. The dancers' bodies were covered in silver-colored objects. Another alien claimed to know the dancers personally and offered to introduce them to Reed and Mayweather. (ENT: "Broken Bow")
Shran's former associates []
Sometime in the late 2150s, Andorian Thy'lek Shran was forced to fake his death, wrongfully accused by at least four alien criminals of stealing a Tenebian amethyst. Learning of this deception in 2161, the criminals kidnapped Shran's daughter, Talla, threatening to kill her if Shran did not return the amethyst.
With the help of Captain Jonathan Archer and the crew of Enterprise, Shran confronted the aliens on Rigel X, retrieving Talla and escaping. The alien gangsters, however, were able to catch up with the NX-01 and board the ship. Before they could harm Shran, Talla, or any of the Enterprise crew, all of the aliens were killed in a plasma explosion set off by Charles Tucker III, who was also fatally wounded. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
Green-skinned aliens []
The lead alien of the gang was an ashen-green-skinned alien with long, gray hair. His features were distinguished by a column of horizontal ridges bisecting his face. He had pale blue eyes and was dressed in a gray, padded suit with a sash-like belt.
A second green-skinned alien was also a part of the gang. He held Talla during the meeting with Shran and T'Pol on Rigel X and was later present when the criminals boarded Enterprise. He wore a long red coat and carried an alien phaser rifle. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
Horned alien []
Among the alien gangsters associated with Shran was a semi-reptilian man, characterized by brown, scaled skin. The alien's features were dominated by distinct cheekbones and several sharp horns extending from the middle of his forehead to the back of his head. His hands were heavily scaled and he wore a brown, hairy-looking jacket. This alien also carried an alien phaser rifle. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
Orange alien []
The fourth alien criminal killed aboard Enterprise was another humanoid, this one orange in color with a red face. His face was also distinguished by dominate cheekbones and he had large, slanted nostrils. His hands were clawed, his hair brown and long. This alien was dressed in a camouflage-green suit with a gray and rust-colored belt.
He hit Archer with the butt of his weapon and knocked him out during their confrontation aboard Enterprise NX-01 in 2161. (ENT: "These Are the Voyages...")
