Zelans are humanoids with green skin and pointy ears who developed a peaceful non-expansionnist advanced civilisation who developed space travel. They built a computer to manage their society. The machine, named Darius, took over when the planet was menaced of destruction by a black hole and established a dictatorship. The population was moved to underground dwellings as planetary surface was deteriorating and mesures were taken to relocate on another planet, namely Earth. Large chunks of the population was brainwashed and transformed into birdmens, the stormtroopers of the zelan army. Dissidents, mainly pacifists, were stigmatised but tolerated and kept alive for future use. In the end the civilians were abandonned on Zela as it was about to fall into the blakc hole while the army left the planet for an all-out attack on Earth, near Mount Fuji. The Zelan attackers will be destroyed and the civilians will escape the destruction of their world in one of their underground city turned into a makeshift spaceship.

TALOSIANS


Planet of Origin: Talos IV in the Talos star group in the Milky Way Galaxy.
The Talosians were an aged, cerebral, sentient, humanoid species who were once a technologically advanced culture but a nuclear holocaust left their planet virtually uninhabitable and killed most of the species. The survivors of the nuclear war congregated in underground dwellings, where they became dependent on their mental ability to create stunningly real illusions, an ability that had been developed by their ancestors. As their mental powers grew, they lost the ability to use the technology left behind by their ancestors. The Talosians found that life using illusion was addictive, almost like a human developing a physical and psychological dependence on narcotics. They became bored with the content of the illusions which they had. Their dependence upon these illusions for mental stimuli caused the Talosians to begin capturing space travelers to use as the living basis for their illusions.
Note: The Talosians look a lot like the Ovoids and Rigellians from the Marvel Universe (and share mental powers with the latter).

ZETARS / ZETARIANS


Planet of Origin: Zetar
When their planet began dying some time around the 14th century, the last hundred survivors planned on leaving the planet when one last cataclysmic event occurred, destroying their corporeal existence. They continued living as a pattern of lights and energy, containing their thoughts, desires, hopes, minds, their very will to live.
Capable of high-warp speeds, this group took to traveling through space for a millennium, seeking a humanoid with a compatible physiology that they could inhabit and live out their lives through.
Durign their first contact with mankind in 2269, some Zetarians brutally took over a humanoid body outright, shoving aside the resident consciousness to make room for their own. In seeking out humanoids, they killed countless lifeforms by burning out sections of their brains. Their energy patterns also disrupted delicate computer systems.

SELAYS / SELAYANS


Planet of origin: Selay in the Beta Renner star system, in the Milky Way
Selays are carnivorous reptilians that developed a space faring civilisation as of the 23rd century. They resemble upright bipedal serpents with two arms.
They evolved in the same system as the Anticans and their civilisation developed as about the same pace, with a similar level of technology. They entered hostilities as soon as they discovered each other. After several decades of contained war and unconstrained hatred, both simultaneously applied for Federation membership in 2366 after having made contact with it in the early 24th century. Federation mediators were able to resolve the conflict and both inhabited worlds were added to the Federation.

ISOLUS


The Isolus are tiny empathic creatures which resembled white flowers with streaming tendrils. They are born as spores and travel through space using solar winds in heat-powered pods that grow for thousands of years until they reach their adulthood. These young Isolus also required strong emotions, specifically love, to survive. Isolus travelled in groups of around 4 billion and required constant companionship to feed off the love of their siblings.
In order to pass the time through their journey toward adulthood, they have the power to project fantasy worlds to play in and bring inanimate objects to life.
In 2012, one Isolus was separated from its siblings after a solar flare. It landed on Earth and searched for heat and a friend and caused much havok before being able to get bakc to its family.

ZANTI


Planet of Origin: Zanti
Zanti are Rodent-sized ant-like insectoid creatures who developed a peaceful space faring civilisation. They made contact with Earht in the 1960ies when they demanded that Earth be used as a penal colony for its misfits.Landing in a remote rural area of the planet Earth, these six-legged aliens broke out of their prison ship and began to attack the nearby population. These hostile little critters were convicted criminals from the planet Zanti whose civilization had rocketed them to our world to be destroyed. In the ensuing battle, these tiny but vicious criminals were stomped, and shot into extinction. The Zanti then sent a message of thanks to have done a task they could not do as their moral code prohibited them from killing their own kind.

FURRY ALIENS


The Furry aliens are a sexuate small (about 2 feet tall) humanoid species who developed a space faring civilisation and a technology that allows them to enlarge themselves to human size. Three indiivduals of the species briefly came to Earth in 1989 and absorbed american culture by watching ten minutes of television.

FACULTY PARASITES




The only known contact between humanity and the parasites happened in 1998 in Herrington, Ohio when a colony of the species tries dot take over a highschool by infection and infiltration. How and from where did they arrive remains unknown.
They appeared as small aquatic creatures that remained in a 'hibernative' state when on land. However, once infesting a human body or within water, the parasite became very active. Their small 'teeth' were capable of cutting human flesh. It sprouted tentacle-like fins around its form to move around its environment which also were perhaps used to 'fuse' with the host. Hosts infected were nearly incapable of being distinguished from non-infected hosts but the parasites were vulnerable to certain drug compounds inhaled through the nostrils which hurt them greatly. Once inside the host, the tentacles would link to the hosts body extensively. They granted increased strength and the hosts were capable of extending some of these tentacles outside the body into the form of tongues. The hosts were also remarkably preserved by the parasites and even decapitation did not kill them or the host, with the limb chopped off being reconnected. They were also capable of sprouting tentacles to move across its environment.
The queen or mother organism organism was actually human sized and able to shape shift between its normal form and that of its host which it seemed to have completely sbsorbed. The mother organism possessed many tentacles that were very strong and was capable of 'spitting' out its 'offspring' to infect new hosts. As the queen and its offspring were linked, its death would destroy the race without any harm to the hosts.

PUPPET MASTERS

The Puppet Masters are sentient stingray shaped exo-parasites which has somehow developed or most probably acquired space travel technology. Their forms are aerodynamic allowing them to glide through the air and use their tendril-like tongues, that can shoot out and pierce rocks, to aid them in movement. They could wrap their bodies and form a ball like shape where it would hibernate until a host would approach. They can reproduce without partners and transmit their genetic memory to their offspring.
Once arriving on a planet, Puppet Masters attempt to infiltrate the indigenous society. The initial infectees attempt to behave normally and trick new hosts into being infected by other parasites. This process of infiltration and implantation continue until the parasites dominate the environment.
Infection requires the parasites to attach themselves to the back of the host where a tongue-like tendril comes out the the creature's mouth and drill into the neck and two suckers take control of the host's nervous system. Once implanted by the parasite, the host serves as the creatures puppet and benefits from improved strength due to a stimulation of the adrenaline gland. They are also capable of taking far more punishment and damage from outside attacks then a normal human. Should the host be trapped or wounded, the parasite can abandon it and fly away. While the parasites work on a collective goal, they are individualistic and do not possess a hive-mind. Information is shared either verbally or chemically through 'feelers' on the back of the parasite which connect to the feelers of another parasite.
They are vulnerable to neurological diseases as their bodies were dominated by neural tissue.
Note: Apart from their shape, They are somewhat similar to the Goa'uld of SG-1.
