The El-Aurians are a widely-traveled people who have spread themselves across many parts of the galaxy. It is known that at least one El-Aurian visited [[Earth]] in 1893, before [[human|humanity]] had any official knowledge of alien species. In 1983 the [[Borg]] launched a major attack on this species, assimilating all but a handful.

Some have used this to help others, acting as advisors or confidants. A few have turned their talent to more dubious pursuits, becoming con men and tricksters, such as [[Martus Mazur]], while Dr. Soran used his abilities to help bring his genocidal plan to re-enter the Nexus to fruition. | ||
Much of their seeming reticence comes from the El-Aurian racial character. They appear to be natural lore-keepers, and use their phenomenal lifespans and memories to collect the stories and life experiences of various sentient beings. They preserve this knowledge for their own kind, and only occasionally share it with non-El-Aurians. They are a highly personable and empathic race, and as such are very willing to help other sentients work out their problems. It is possible as an offshoot of their prodigious memories and mental facilities that El-Aurians are extraordinarily sensitive to the [[space-time continuum]] itself. | Much of their seeming reticence comes from the El-Aurian racial character.
