Felless was a female of the Race, an expert in alien psychology, and a member of the Race's Colonization Fleet. She was assigned to study the psychology of Tosevites on Tosev 3. In this she worked closely with Ttomalss, a far more experienced psychologist from the Conquest Fleet, who, despite being junior to her, despised her and felt no respect toward her.

Felless was assigned primarily to the Race's embassy in Germany. There she became heavily addicted to ginger and was involved in a number of sexual scandals, including matings with the Race's German ambassador, Veffani. Like many males of the Race, Veffani found Felless extremely distasteful (when he wasn't mating with her) and arranged for her to remain in the German embassy (an assignment she desperately wanted to leave, to the point that she attempted to provoke the German government into declaring her persona non grata) until the entire embassy was expelled at the outset of the Race-German War of 1965.

In the late 2010s and early 2020s, Felless was intrigued by strange physics experiments being performed in the United States. She forwarded information on them to her former colleague Ttomalss on Home, where he showed them to Pesskrag, a physicist of the Race. These experiments disproved the section of the Theory of Relativity which held that no object in the universe could travel faster than the speed of light. This was not realized until the American starship Commodore Perry, a FTL capable vessel, arrived unannounced in the Tau Ceti system in 2031.
