Spathi

The Spathi
The Spathi are a race of cowardly clams hailing from the Gruis constellation. After recent changes in the shift of power, the Spathi have decided it would be a good idea to be protected by the Alliance.

Recent History
The Spathi were mostly spared by the Umgah's betrayal, being lucky to be mostly not mixed in with their ships when the joke was played. When the Ur-Quan pulled back and the Ilwrath were defeated, the Spathi immediately surrendered. They were left alone as a neutral race, wanting to never fight again. However, when they were attacked by the Thraddash, the Spathi asked for the Alliance's help. The Spathi were admitted, though they tend to avoid battles when they can, sometimes leaving Earthling Cruisers to die in battle. This has caused the Chenjesu to be a little more strict towards the Spathi, insisting that in the Alliance, in order to be defended, you must also defend.
