Areore

Bird-like villagers of Areolus

A bird-like humanoid species of the planet Areolus who gave up space travel for a simple village life and sheltered the runaway exocomp Peanut Hamper in 2381.

The Areore are feathered, ornithoid humanoids. Their ancestors travelled the stars, but they chose to bury their ships and return to a pre-industrial way of life. They appear in the Lower Decks episode A Mathematically Perfect Redemption.
Peanut Hamper, who deserted the USS Cerritos during the fight with the Pakleds, crashes on Areolus and is taken in by a village led by Kaltorus. She brings them small conveniences, appears to learn selflessness and falls in love with the chief's son, Rawda.
When Drookmani scavengers arrive to loot the buried ships, it emerges that Peanut Hamper summoned them so that she could save the day and return to Starfleet as a heroine. Rawda and the villagers fight off the Drookmani with the old ships, and he banishes her.
