"According to Zobral, the Torothans led a ruthless regime that maintained power and controlled resources through brutal oppression, bombarding dissidents with mortar and aerial attacks. They claimed to have abolished the caste system that had once prevailed but in reality appeared to sponsor the divisionism and prejudice. This precipitated the formation of rebel groups, such as that of Zobral, who having exhausted legal attempts at reform, turned to revolt and were labeled as terrorists. A member of the Torothan Clan was identified by facial markings consisting of two pairs of lines. The outer pair began at each end of the lips and curved down in an inward direction, towards the chin. The inner two lines began separate from each other, near the center of the bottom lip, and intersected about midway, becoming one line which intersected the two outer lines on the chin. (ENT: \"Desert Crossing\") Unused dialogue from the final draft script of \"Desert Crossing\" established that, according to Zobral, the Torothan military had begun to retaliate against his clan \"several months\" prior to February 2152 and were equipped with \"superior weapons.\""@en . . "The Torothans were encountered by the crew of Enterprise in 2152 when they made repairs to a ship operated by Zobral, who subsequently invited Enterprise captain Archer and chief engineer Tucker for a meal on his homeworld as thanks. Archer and Tucker accepted the offer and played a game of Geskana with Zobral and his clan of dissidents, little knowing that they would become embroiled in Zobral's civil conflict with the Torothans."@en .
