The Zalkonians were an advanced warp-capable humanoid species native to the planet Zalkon. By 2366, many Zalkonians began to undergo a process in which their DNA would mutate, causing them to transform into powerful non-corporeal lifeforms. They began experiencing isoelectric bursts as part of this process. The Zalkonian people were frightened by those undergoing the change and their government began exterminating anyone showing symptoms. Some of those affected fled their homeworld but were ruthlessly pursued by the Zalkonian military, including Sunad.

  • The Zalkonians were a reclusive humanoid race native to the planet of Zalkon. In the 24th century, many individuals of the race were transforming into non-corporeal lifeforms. The government dealt with these individuals harshly. Zalkonian warships were relatively advanced, and posed a risk to a Galaxy-class Federation vessel. The warships also possessed some sort of weapon which was able to suffocate crews of enemy vessels. First contact with the United Federation of Planets occurred in 2366.

  • The Zalkonians were an advanced warp-capable humanoid species native to the planet Zalkon. By 2366, many Zalkonians began to undergo a process in which their DNA would mutate, causing them to transform into powerful non-corporeal lifeforms. They began experiencing isoelectric bursts as part of this process. The Zalkonian people were frightened by those undergoing the change and their government began exterminating anyone showing symptoms. Some of those affected fled their homeworld but were ruthlessly pursued by the Zalkonian military, including Sunad. In 2366, the USS Enterprise-D discovered a crashed Zalkonian escape pod, and rescued one survivor that had suffered critical injuries. According to Dr. Beverly Crusher, the survivor suffered major trauma to his head and chest cavity, massive plasma loss, and severe damage to most of his organs. Dr. Crusher claimed that the survivor's body had amazing recuperative powers and that the damaged tissue had been repairing itself at a phenomenal rate. This survivor exhibited almost complete memory loss and so she named him "John Doe". "John" began to undergo the symptoms of a mutation while on board. This mutation often caused John pain and manifested as a yellow glowing energy in his chest. It also had its benefits. Miles O'Brien dislocated his shoulder and after coming into sickbay, "John" healed him with a single touch, much to his amazement. A similar contact with Geordi La Forge resulted in increased confidence on La Forge's part. "John" was even able to revive Worf after he fell from a raised platform and was fatally injured. Later, the Enterprise-D was intercepted by a ship commanded by Sunad. Sunad demanded "John"'s return, but Captain Jean-Luc Picard refused to turn "John" over without an explanation as to the nature of his crimes. Sunad attacked the Enterprise-D, but "John" stopped the attack. Now that Sunad posed no danger to him, "John" finished his transformation and left for space. (TNG: "Transfigurations" )

The Zalkonians seemed to occupy a region of space of unknown size. The Federation had apparently not been aware of the Zalkonians or their space as of 2366. (TNG episode: "Transfigurations")
