The Lu'ufans were a civilization native to a homeworld located somewhere in the Milky Way Galaxy. This species had long necks, scaly skin, and angular shoulders. In the year 2372, a member of this species was at Quark's, where he accidentally knocked over two of his Scintaavian Sunsets while telling a bystander about the size of a merragat worm he had snared for his sister's wedding feast.
