Description
An ancient, highly advanced civilization that mastered the technique of dimensional transport across interstellar distances.  The Iconians, referred to in ancient texts as "Demons of Air and Darkness", were all believed destroyed some 200,000 years ago by orbital bombardment that devastated the surface of their planet.  It has been speculated that the Iconians did not all perish in the attacks but rather used their gateway technology to escape to other nearby planets.  The similarity between the Iconian language and Dewan, Icobar, and Dianasian has been cited as evidence to support this theory (Contagion -TNG).
