Satarran

Type: Humanoid
Place of origin: Sothis III
The Satarrans were a humanoid civilization from the planet Sothis III. Although they were not as technologically advanced as the Federation, they possessed a unique device which allowed them to wipe the collective memory of the entire crew of a starship. They also seemed able to manipulate the computer memory banks of a Galaxy-class starship.
By 2368, the Satarrans had been at war with the Lysian race for decades. In that year, the Satarrans attempted to use the USS Enterprise-D to launch a devastating attack against the Lysian Central Command. They used their memory wipe weapon on the crew, placed an operative known as Kieran MacDuff in the first officer position, and planted false orders from Starfleet Command which stated that the Enterprise was to destroy the Lysian headquarters.
Although the crew was unable to restore their full memories by the time they were to attack the Lysian headquarters, Captain Jean-Luc Picard realized that the Lysians posed no threat to the Galaxy-class starship or to the Federation at large (the station, home to 15,311 people, was little more than target practice for the Enterprise, while its entire defensive output would not constitute enough of a threat to bother raising shields), and that the orders must have been falsified. MacDuff's true nature was then revealed, and the Enterprise stood down. (TNG: "Conundrum")

Satarran starship
Satarran starship
The Satarran starship was a small spacecraft used by the Satarrans. It could be piloted by one person and lacked discernible armament. However, it was equipped with an advanced sensor system that could remotely access the optical data network of a Federation starship, penetrate its shields, and alter computer records and memories.
In 2368, one of these vessels was used by a Satarran agent to gain access to the USS Enterprise. The ship was destroyed after the Satarran had insinuated himself among the Enterprise crew. (TNG: "Conundrum")
Lysian
The Lysians were a spacefaring species from Lysia in the Lysian system. Their government was the Lysian Alliance, and their military was headquartered in the Lysian Central Command.
In the mid-24th century, the Lysians were engaged in a decades-long war with the Satarrans. The weapon technology of both races were over a century behind those of contemporaneous Federation starships; Lysian armaments included disruptors, laser cannons, and cobalt fusion warheads.
In 2368, the Satarrans attempted to use the USS Enterprise-D to win the war. One of their operatives used a device to wipe the memories of the Enterprise crew and alter its computer records. According to the false information, the Enterprise had been tasked by Starfleet Command to destroy the Lysian Central Command, as part of a coordinated fleet action to end a Lysian-Federation war. The Satarran disguised himself as first officer "Kieran MacDuff" and worked to keep the mission going.
Although the Enterprise crew had not yet restored their memories by the time they reached the Central Command, Captain Jean-Luc Picard recognized the incongruity of the Lysians' vastly inferior defenses and decided to open communications with them. MacDuff's true nature was then exposed, and the Enterprise stood down. (TNG: "Conundrum")

Affiliation: Lysian Alliance
Type: Destroyer
Active: 24th century
Crew complement: 53
Armament: Disruptors
Defenses: Deflector shields
Sentry pod
Sentry pods were twenty-nine meter long, unmanned Lysian sentries, programmed to defend the Lysian Central Command. The pods were equipped with fusion generated pulse lasers, and minimal deflector shielding. The Lysian system had 47 sentry pods around its perimeter. (TNG: "Conundrum")
