The '''Mael-Num''' were one of the four founding member races of the [[Sentient Milieu]]. What little is known about them is mainly taken from conversations with the [[Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah]], who describe them as "one-eyed creatures."

Along with the [[Ur-Quan]] they were mentally enslaved by the [[Dnyarri]] and assisted in the genocides against other members of the Sentient Milieu.{{ref|1}} After the Dnyarri slave revolt and the first doctrinal enforcements against the [[Faz]] and [[Yuptar]], the Kohr-Ah came to the homeworld of the Mael-Num, the last free race the Ur-Quan were aware of, with the intent of destroying it. The Mael-Num asked the Kohr-Ah [[The Words|why they had come to destroy them]], and so sincere was the question that the Kohr-Ah were given pause. In that hesitation, the [[Ur-Quan Kzer-Za|Kzer-Za]] arrived with the intent to enslave the Mael-Num.

The two Ur-Quan sub-races fought, and thus began the first [[Doctrinal War]]. During the long battle, the Mael-Num escaped in a large interstellar fleet to places unknown. It is reasonable to assume that, were either species of Ur-Quan to discover the Mael-Num again, they would make great efforts to correct their millennia-old oversight.

==Melnorme Descendents==
Based on the fact that the Kohr-Ah refer to the Mael-Num as "one-eyed creatures", and the similarity of their names, it has been theorized that the Mael-Num are the ancestors of the [[Melnorme]]. A reliable source has confirmed this speculation.{{ref|2}}

==Notes and references==
{{note|1}}''The [[Role Playing Resource Guide]] (pg. 25) states that both the Mael-Num and the [[Ur-Quan]] were compelled to destroy the [[Drall]]''
