The Vrast are from Missions of State, and while they haven't been mentioned elsewhere, I see nothing contradictory.

Interestingly, in some MegaTraveller material set in Massilia Sector (Knightfall, pg 54, pg 63), there are NPCs (including images) of a very derived Minor Human Race living in Massilia as part of Imperial society. They aren't Geonee, and while they look a little Suerrat there's also a lot that's unique about them. Given that Massilia is right next to Diaspora and the non-Homo sapiens (maybe even non-Homo) origin of the Vrast fits the very distinct looking but still explicitly Human race from those MT materials, I've decided to assume the NPCs in question are Vrast.

If there's any objection to the assumption, please let me know!

EDIT: The note about the Psionics Suppressions is further speculation; if these *are* the Vrast, then their psionic potential wouldn't make them very popular post-800, so presumably they keep it quiet.
