The El-Aurians are a humanoid species of "listeners" with extremely long lifespans. Most of them were assimilated by the Borg in 2265, the few survivors being scattered throughout the galaxy.
In 2293, a group of El-Aurian refugees were being transported by Federation ships when they were caught in the Nexus. They were reluctantly rescued by the USS Enterprise-B, although at the apparent cost of the life of James T. Kirk.
One of the most notable El-Aurians is Guinan. El-Aurians stop getting older around middle age. Martus Mazur had the appearance of a 52 year old human, while detained by DS9's Constable Odo. As did Doctor Tolian Soran, when met by USS Enterprise-D personnel.
