Tem Eliss (Earth-2356)

"In our efforts, we have learned that life is not rare. Rather, given a chance, life will occur. It is tenacious, aggressive—it seems to crave existence."

- Tem Elis

Professor Tem Eliss was an Iyra sentientologist who worked in the University of Sanbra's Sentient Studies Department. His book, The University of Sanbra Guide to Intelligent Life, was considered too pro-alien for COMPNOR, and made him a fugitive from the Galactic Empire. It was rumored that he went on to join a Rebel Alliance cell.
