STAR-JELLIES / SPACEBORN ENTITIES / SKYMOUNTS


The Star-Jellies are large intelligent space dwelling cosmozoan lifeformes ressembling large luminescent jellyfish. Although they are primarly spacebound, they able to survive both in the vacuum of space and on a telluric type planet. They are capable of manipulating energy to create the effects of replicators and transporters, which allows them to transform themselves into virtually antyhing and even to separate transformed parts of itself from its being and to warp space to attain interstellar speed.
When flying at warp speed, Starjellies usually retract their tendrils which gives them a roughly saucer shape, about a kilometer in diameter.
Two such beings were witnessed in 2364, in the Deneb system but left for destination unknown.
It has been rumored that some species might have used such creatures as spaceships
