NEURAL PARASITES

The species refered to as "Neural Parasites" resembles a crawling insects that enters a host organism, attaching itself near the central nervous system - on the spine near the brain, in the case of a human, with a small spine-like protrusion visible at the base of the neck to allow breathing. The parasites are highly intelligent and are able to habe appreciation of the cultures they are parasiting. A host inhabited by a parasite will display increased physical strength and endurance.
The parasites are connected to a mother organism, a larger creature likewise capable of inhabiting a host. The death of this creature seems to result in the deaths of all progeny. (TNG: "Conspiracy")
They attempted to infiltrate Earth in 2364, by physically infiltrating high-ranking officials within the organization but theuir attempt was thwarted. However, the mother organism had sent a signal toward deep space, wether this was a call for help or a warning remains unknown.
Notes: It has been rumored that the parasites might have been agents of the Borg collective.
(This was the episode's writers original intent. However, due to the 1986 Writers' Strike as well as budget cuts, the connection between the Borg and the parasites was never established. (Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion)
The neural parasites are in many ways similar to the Goa'uld, a race of malevolent, power-hungry parasites from TV series Stargate SG1.

SHELIAK

Planet of Origin: A planet in the Shelia / Beta Lyrae star system (ca. 882 lightyears from Earth)
The Sheliak are a reculsive species that developped a space faring society as of the 23rd century. Althought they travel through space and have colonised other planetss, they try to avoid contact with other species whenever possible.
Not much is known about the Sheliak social system but colonists refer to themselves as "the Membership" and have a governing body called "the Corporate".
Unlike most humanoids, the Sheliak prefer to exist in an environment that is the same temperature as their bodies. (TNG: "Starship Mine")

MEDUSANS / VISALAYANS

Planet of Origin: Medusa (Visalayan), orbiting the G8 star Xi Hydrae, 129 light years from Earth.
The Medusans are an highly evolved peaceful telepathic non-corporeal species. The visual impression they leave upon those they meet is so utterly hideous that the sight of a Medusan renders most humanoid lifeform mad. Some species are known be able to withstand their sight but only through the use of a specially filtered visor. For these reasons, Medusans usually use an opaque carrier pod when interacting with other species. The Medusans was a member of the Federation of Planetes in the twentietn century and had limited contact with some other species.

APPARITIONS

Not much is known about those eirie apparitions. They've been witnessed in spaceship graveyards, asteroid fields, planteray rings and other such places. They appaear to be humanoids wearing spacesuits and exhibiting luminous body parts where they're visible, with long tentacles like appendages growing out of them. Some specimen were identifiable as humans and other known space farign species, while otehr appeared clearly alien. They're always highly aggressive and have been known to hunt in pack or alone. They prefer ambush to all out attacks.
Legends talk about supernatural manifestations, but a popular explanations to the phenomenon is that of a parasite taking control of the bodies of space travellers, turning them in some kind of zombie under its control. As no specimen has been caught yet, the mystery remains.

PINK ENTITY

Planet of Origin: a windy and desertic planet 5000 light years from Earth, in the direction of the Pleiades.
The pink entity is a large soft mass covering a surface of about 6 meters in diameter by three meters high. While not humanoid, its shape is remotely reminiscent ofa huge couch potato.
The Pink entity has existed for several millions of years and has no memory of its beginning and cant recall any physical change, wether growth or deterioration in its physical mass.
It has powerful psychic powers and spends most of its time fishing telepathically for other telepathic entities with wich to communicate. It is collecting other people's mind, exchanging an image of its own mind with them. The entity has in its own mind images of the minds of thousands of alien. Being a solitary being, possibly to only of its kind, it does not do much with that wealth of knowledge and live a quite goal-less existence. It usually have a friendly attitude toward otehr sentient beings.
The entity lives in a construction sheltering it from the harsh weather conditions of its world. If he built it or how remains unknown.
The entity had contact with humanity during the first half of the third millenium through Shepherd Blaine, a telepath working for the Fishhook Corporation while psychically scanning distant worlds.

ARMADILLO CALAMARI

This aquatic creature attracts small preys with the luminous organs situated on its belly and shoulders. It catches them with its long prehensile tongue. Its tentacles can sometimes be of help for holding larger preys or searching the seabed for food. When threatened, it rolls on itself and lay on the ground so as to look like a big rock. It tends to hunt alone but can sometimes be seen in packs of up to 8 individuals.

ABBAI

Planet of Origin: Ssumssha (Abba IV)
The Abbai are a reptilian humanoid species led by a matriarchal regime who have developed a space faring civilisation. In the twentieth century, they became members of the League of Non-Aligned Worlds and then of the Interstellar Alliance.
“The Abbai civilisation is over six thousand Earth Years old and is regarded as a model of tolerance and respect and has eradicated all poverty and inequity on their world. Although the Abbai are ruled by a single gender, this is simply a fact of Abbai biology that the females outnumber males five to one, though the males are in no way considered inferior and are able to participate in all areas of society, with the exception of the government itself. This arrangement seams to work as it has remained stable for over four millennia and most male seam more interested in pursuing artistic, scientific or academic professions over politics. The Abbai are a very technologically adept civilisation and have possessed the capability for interstellar travel for over eight hundred years. They however specialise in agriculture, medicine, communication systems and computer software. Though they are a peaceful race who do not believe in conquest or violent expansion, they are by no means total pacifists and are quite capable of defending themselves. Most of their weapons are designed around non-lethal but formidable reactive force. Their ships and planetary defences are capable of generating massive force shields, capable of withstanding most assaults. They are also proficient and electronic warfare, intercepting and jamming enemy communications. The bulk of the Abbai Matriarchate's defence strategy however lies in their good relations with other worlds and their numerous interplanetary alliances from which they can muster a defender in case of attack or if necessary hire other races as mercenaries… Religion is highly prized among the Abbai, as is tolerance and mutual respect. As such their sixteen distinct religious hold no rivalry towards one another. The most dominant belief system on Abba IV is Oulai, the worship of wind and water. Unlike most other races the Abbai to not worship divine being(s) but instead revere the natural elements (stone, sand, plants, mountains etc.) with the exception of Kolai; the worship of logic and knowledge.” (from the Babylon 5 Wikia)

FIRST ONES / TRAVELLERS / WALKERS AT SIGMA 957

Planet of Origin: Sigma 957
The Walkers are amongst the oldest races in our galaxy. With an unending Thirst for knowledge and a desire to learn every aspect of the Universe, they ended up possessing more knowledge individually than entire species. They started out as a large thick skinned creatures with poor séances and high psychokinetic capacities. They never rudimentary developed tools as they could construct things physically with there mind. They resorted to technology for complex constructs such as computers or automated construction machines. They soon started exploring space and at the same time the other dimensions and soon became nomadic explorers. They first discovered Thirdspace, which they mapped out in secret, due tu the violent and chaotic nature of its natives, then, hyperspace, which lead the way to yet other dimensions. They evolved beyond the physical state over a million years ago.
In our galaxy, they’ve been known to deposit their informations in two massive uninhabited databases. One at Sigma 957 and another one that was destroyed by asteroid impact.
They usually travel inside huge Science lab made for research and interdimensionnal and interuniversal travel.

FIRST ONES / TORVALUS SPECULATORS

The Torvalus speculators are a species of Gamblers and tricksters resembling a meter tall transparent protozoan covered in scillia. Until they left for beyond the galactic rim, they devoted their long existences to endless and sometimes highly abstract bets, wagers and probability tests, most of the time implicating other species. As a result they have brought stealth technology to unequalled levels to give them free reign while observing others.

FIRST ONES / MINDRIDERS

The Mindriders shed their corporeal bodies over a million years ago. They refer to the moment of ascendance to beings of pure though as "the Great Birth" and consider themselves to be an entirely different species from that which they were before.
After the Great Birth, they quickly reached Hyperspace and the stars beyond their native system, joining the galactic other highly advanced species such as the Speakers, the Walkers, the Torvalus (with who they sometimes clashed), the Vorlons, the Shadows, but mostly the Triad in a form of galactic community. Deeply philosophical, they were anxious to learn all that they could from their more experienced brothers, then, after a while, they seperated into small groups, and investigate throughout the galaxy, joining together again every so often to exchange information, and then moves beyond. Although uncorporeal, they often use large empty spaceship-like structures to travel through space.
Mindriders are known to invade the minds of significant individuals of lesser species to observe and sometimes inlfuence history.

FIRST ONES / TRIAD

The Triads are noncorporeal conceptual beings born in the vacuum of space millions of years ago. They appeared separately, each with a different ideology (Order, Neutrality, Chaos) and reunited to achieve balance and completeness. They interact with other spacies through a large spaceship. Wehter the ship actually houses them or is only a device for interaction remains unknown.

FIRST ONES / KIRISHIAC

Planet of Origin: Kirish, a large planetoid, several time the size of a regular tellurian world. It has a solid core, cold temperature, extremely high gravitic constant, and an atmosphere so thick as to be almost liquid.

Kirishiak are an advanced aggressive species that developed into a space faring civilisation over a million years ago. They were the youngest of a group of civilisations that included the Walkers, the Shadows, the Vorlons, the Torvalus, the Triad and the Mindriders. They started as an expansionist power but after defeat at the hands of their elders, turend toward a more humble approach.

Kirishiac are huge bipedal creatures with multiple redundant cardiopulmonary systems and cells arranged in complex lattice structures. They stand over seven meter tall and are almost translucent. They have eight hearts spread throughout their bodies in order to pump blood through limbs on their high gravity homeworld. This redundancy and the necessary strength of their physiological systems made them highly resistant to most kinetic attacks.
Once under a united feudalistic government, they started to wander into space and conquered all nearby systems, using heavily armed spaceship and protecting their physical being in atmosphere suits able to reproduce the gravity and pressure of the home world. For several thousand years, they expanded their empire, sometimes wiping out a young race, but most times forcing them into slavery. When they discovered hyperspace, they wandered in the territories of older species such as the Walkers and the Shadows. This brought them in a direct if short war with much older civilisations and they were beaten back to their homeworlds. They later opened communication channels with those older races to be granted access back into space.

LEGENDARY SPECIES: THE HAND / THIRDSPACE ALIENS

The Hand are an ancient and powerful race said to have been imprisoned in another dimension over a million years ago by another powerful race.

The species refered to as the Thirdspace aliens was encountered by the Vorlons species a a million years ago, when they decided to build a gate to open a doorway to what they believed was the Well of Souls, the source of life. What they reaches was the Thirdspace aliens' dimension. During the ensuing battle, ehe aliens took telepathic control of many Vorlons and forced them to fight each other. They were finally forced to their own dimension. A group of Vorlons, still under the control of the Thirdspace aliens, captured the artifact and jettisoned it into hyperspace, hoping to recover it later.
Shrowded in mystery nad lgends, the Hand and the Thirdspace aliens may or may not be the same. Both legends talk about a very powerful and evil species that was locked in another dimension circa a million years ago by another one. Their appearance remains a mystery. During an encounter with an invading Thirdspace armada, a large, octopoid-like creatures was seen but it may also have been one of the degenerated vorlon under thirdspace control as this other secretive species, for what has been glimpsed of it might be vaguely octopoid.

STREIB

The Streib is a secretive humanoid species which developped a space faring civilisaton. They are distant relatives of the Vree but it remains unknown when or how both civilisations came to evolve on different worlds. The most obvious difference between the two races is the configuration of the eyes. The Vree's eyes are pure black, whereas the Streib's eyes have a red slit down the center. Both culture share the trait of kidnapping other species and examining them onboard their ships. Streib alos share a lot of physical resemblance with Zeners and other Shadow servants.

SHADOW SOLDIERS / GOBLYNS

The Goblyns are apparently genderless humanoids with highly developed psi powers – their only menans of communication, stamina and agility which surpasses humans. Their ability to camouflage themselves seems to be both psychic and physical in nature. They explode and decompose rapidly upon dying, which goes in the logic of their infiltrative nature. Another species genetically engiennered by the Shadows, they share a lot of similarities with the Zener, their ming manipulating powers among them.

SHADOW WARRIORS

Shadow Warriors have been genetically enginnered by the Shadows and looks much like a muscular 5 meters high Zener which leads to believe that share the same basic genetic material. They inherited light distortion/phasing ability from their Shadow Master. Intelligent and patient, they appear to be able to control their metabolism and go for decades with little or no food but are carnivorous and feed preferably on sentient beings. A victim which survived feeding will keep a psychic link with its predator. They are known to have been employed by the Shadow for at least a millennium.

SHADOW WORKERS / ZENER

Zeners are a humanoid species that has been genetically engineered by the Shadows to serve as highly skilled workers. Mouthless, they communicate telephathically and are able to plant suggestions in others' mind. They share a lot of ressemlances with the Goblyns and the Warriors, two other species serving the Shadows, as well as with the Streib and the Vree.

VREE

Planet of Origin: Vreetan, orbiting a M5 red star

The Vree are a race of hairless, large-eyed humanoid which had developped a spacefaring civilisation as of the twentieth century. They made contact with humanity in that time, visiting Earth fairly regularly in the 1940s. Not making formal formal contact, they mostly observed and even kidnapped specimens for for further sicentific studies. Vree look much like what human popculture Grey aliens, their behavior also match the character as does their spaceships, shaped like flying saucers. They joined the league of non-aligned worlds in the mid-twenty-third century and later the Interstellar Alliance.

VENDRIZI / VINDRIZI

The Vendrizi are symbiont life form that joins with a willing host. They were created half a million years ago by an unidentified race to be living records of history. They have travelled the galaxy from one host to the next since then. They resemble a meter long insect shaped like a short spine with a pincer-like head. The spike-like things on its side integrate directly into the chosen hosts neural system. Being composed of 100% genetically neutral material, they can coexist with any organic life form. They can cure their host of most physical problems, diseases and enhances their faculties. Once linked, a Vindrizi can be separated from its host, but cannot take on another without doing extensive neural damage to it.

PAK'MA'RA

Planet of Origin: Melat

Pak’ma’ra are humanoid with tentacles around a mouth cavity containing inflexible beak-like teeth. They are dedicated carrion eaters, by nature and culture. Believing themselves superior to other species, they are fond of eating the corpses of sentient species. They see their incredible resistance to food poisoning and and most disease as a sign of their superiority, but being rather peaceful, they do not communicate this belief to other species.
Pak'ma'ra's facial tentacles are used for securing food and moving it into the mouth cavity and also appears to be a center for sexual stimulation. Being incapable of forming words in most other species' languages, they rely on machine translation for interspecies communication, but they are capable of singing what is considered extremely beautiful music, but only do so for religious purpose. It has also been hinted that, because of the way they see themselves, they do not want to talk any other language than their own. While extremely intelligent and inquisitive, they are generally considered stupid and lazy by other races. Typically, they lead singular, isolated existences. To them, knowledge truly is power. Pak'ma'ra statesmen are distinguished elders, and many are noted explorers and scientists. While not, they are fully capable self-defense.
When alien species first made contact with them, ithey became immensely curious about alien species, cultures and ideas to be found among the stars. Tens of thousands of Pak'Ma'Ra left their home world and went out into the universe they had been introduced to. Pak'Ma'Ra's goal appears to simply observe other races and gather new ideas with which to share with the whole of their society.
After over a century of venturing into space, in the late 23rd century, The pak'ma'ra became members of the League of Non-Aligned Worlds, and then of the Interstellar Alliance. They are not very advanced technologically compared to species of the same age and often rely on technology they buy or scavenge from others. The Pak'Ma'Ra concentrates the bulk of their technology on transportation and communication - to go to other world and share their knowledge with other Pak'Ma'Ra.

SELECTORANS

Planet of Origin: Selectoru in the Andromeda Galaxy (now destroyed).

No Selectorans was ever observed as is. Only Sosai X, who might only be an organic artificial intelligence of selectoran origin rather than a true selectoran (it remains unclear), was ever known to come to the Milky Way galaxy. It crashed on Earth three millions years ago and stayed dormant for thousands of years. The original plan it was to carry out was to take over the planet for its species by using local lifeforms to do its bidding, but when it discovered that his world had been destroyed, it decided to destroy the Earth instead, by planting a black hole at its core.
Its true form remains a mystery. But after its destruction and the failure of tis plan, it regenerated into a new form dubbed Sosai Z. Despite his phenomenal intellect, he has the emotional maturity of a child. It is not known if this is a trait of the species, of the individual or a state of mind brought by its despair.
Selectorans possessed highly advanced technology allowing them to achieve an intergalactic journey (although under unknown conditions), manipulate advanced lifeforms, created complex technological constructs such as gigantic robotic monsters and even create a black hole.

UNNAMED SPECIES FROM CAPTAIN FUTURE - P1

Here is a list of unnamed alien species seen in the first episode of the Captain Future (Capitaine Flam) animated series. All the species shown here were in Deneb VII's Jungletown but indigenous to the planet. It may therefore be assumed that all of them have developed or were exposed to a spacefaring society.

• First Picture: There are representatives from 5 alien species on this picture, Denebian (left) aside.
• Second Picture: There are representatives from 3 other alien species on this picture. The green one with the large white eyes also appeared on the first picture.
• Third Picture: The lizard is only a pet. The kid in an environmental suit is most probably of the same species as the ones from the previous post - probably a human. The other kid seems to have some features ressembling that of a canine and is therefore most probably of a different origin.
• Fourth picture: There are representatives from two alien species in this picture. Both look a lot like aliens from the StarWars Cantina.
• Fifth Picture: The specimen in an environmental suit might be of the same species as the ones from the previous post as he shares with them a lot of anatomical features. The Floating head's nature is unknown. It does look a lot like the Zardoz Flying head, but much smaller.

UNNAMED SPECIES FROM CAPTAIN FUTURE - P2

Here is a list of unnamed alien species seen in the first episode of the Captain Future (Capitaine Flam) animated series. All the species shown here were in Deneb VII's Jungletown but indigenous to the planet. It may therefore be assumed that all of them have developed or were exposed to a spacefaring society.

• First Picture: The two specimen from the first picture (as well as the last one from the next post) are humanoids in environmental suits of different designs and may or may not belong to the same species. The fact that they seem to be together may lead to believe it is the case. As they appear very humanlike same size, number of limbs, digits, eyes, respiratory organs in the same location, it is possible that these are humans from another colony who cannot bear Deneb VII's atmospherical conditions or may be sensible to some of its biospherical elements.
• Second Picture: The specimen from the second picture is clearly totally alien. Another specimen of this species is seen on a terran spaceliner en route to Earth in the Black Planet Stroyline, but that one is purple, which leads to believe that that species might have several possible skin tones.
  
• Third Picture: The utility of the tubes going from the base of the neck to both ears of the four arm humanoid (assuming ears are the organs situated at this point of its anatomy) remains unknown. His The reason for these remains unknown. The tubes running across the armor on his legs may or may not be for the same function. The mechanism grafted to the chest of the large saurien is most probably related to his respiratory or vascular system to help it to deal with the alien environment he is in.
• Fourth Picture: While this alien is in an environmental suit, it clearly does not belong the same same species as the other people in environmental suit mentionned above.
• Fifth Picture: A Flying reptilian alien. Like many others, he also need some mechanical environmental equipment.
• Sixth picture: This large alien has four arms and two heads. As he is closely following a human female, does not show any technological on him and even look somewhat primitive, he might not belong to a spacefaring species and might be the female's pet or primitive bodyguard.

BLUE SKIN ALIENS

Pop culture is crowded with humanoid aliens ressembling normal humans. Reasons for this is often cost (in the case of films and TV series), belivability (the fact that an alien would look like a normal human would be scientifically highly unlikely, but animatronics, prosthetics and make up can often be even more unbelievable) and association with the character (it's easier to associate with Han Solo, a Corellian, than it is with Greedo). In recent years, to make easy-to-associate-with aliens look "scientifically" more believable, the path chosen by designers was that often refered to as "nose job" consisting mainly in of minor prosthetic changes done by adding some latex to modify some facial features and make the extra-terrestrial character unmistakingably alien. From the eighties and on, Star Trek series have used this technique extensively to bring diversity in their aliens of the week. The method had its root in the original series with Mr. Spock's trademark pointed ears made him famous. At the time, though, the use of heavy facial prosthetics was less common and most humanoid aliens used unearhtly color tones to distingish themselves, wether green like the Orions, half with half black (or the reverse) like the Cheronians, blue like the andorians (while the latter also used prosthetics antennea which made them in the not-completely human category). To make the aliens more aliens, cold colors were always a favorite. Little Green Men has somewhat become a stereotypcial portrayal of extraterrestrials, with blue being the next chromatic contender. Among the most known blue skin human aliens, let's note:

• The Kree (created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for the Marvel Universe)
• The Gamilons (created by Leiji Matsumoto for the Space Cruiser Yamato animated series, and generally associated with what fans call the Leijiverse)
• The Bolar (with a lighter skin complection), still from the Yamato universe.
• The Izarians from the Magnerobo Gakeen animated show
• The Drules from the Voltron american animated series adapted from the Golion series (where the alien presented species is called Garla) and the Dairugger XV series (where the species is the Galbeston)
• The Vineans (from Roger Leloup's Yoko Tsuno series)
  

KHUNDS

Planet of origins: Khundia, a planet perpetually eclipsed by its moon, making it a dark and dreary world, in a star system close to Polaris.
The Khund s are a very aggressive humanoid species ressembling humans with larger and more muscular build and magenta skin. They had spacefaring technology by the end of the twentieth century. Choking on its own dense population, their homeworld has become totally overrun by a mentality of total militarism and violence.
Along with the Dominators and the Gil Dishpans, They were members of an interstellar alliance that planned an invasion of Earth toward 1988-89.After this attmpt failed, they retreated to their homeworld and battled among themselves over the responsability of their failure. It took them over a thousand years before threatening Earht again.

THANAGARIANS

Planet of Origin: Thanagar, a planet is in orbit around the star Polaris (Alpha Ursae Minoris, 430 LY from Earth). Four fifths of the planet is covered in water.
The thanagarians are humanoid, and close to Homo sapiens in general appearance. They evolved into a unified highly advanced spacefaring technological society, with no obvious civil or political unrest. War and crime was rare and virtually non-exsistent ever since the early days of the planets existence. In the 1960ies, following an artificical alien plague that temporarily robbed most of the population from their individuality, the Thanagarians lost much of their science and technology and, suffering from cultural shock and under alien influence, reestablished ithemselves into a more expansionnist civilisation. They began conquering other planets and stripping them of their natural resources and bringing back a number of inhabitants to Thanagar as slaves. The slave class was over 3 billions by the end of the twentieth century. Aliens and Thanagarians alike, were living in "Downside" ghettos, while the Thanagarians nobles lived in floating cities above where poverty, crime, and suffering were virtually unheard of.
Central to Thanagarian technology is the use of Nth Metal, Nth, an hyperconductive transuranic iron (atomic number of 676), possessing innate anti-magical properties, and able to invert mesons and gravitons. Thanagar was one of the planets which united to invade Earth in 1988-1989. The planet remains on hostile terms with most of other civilisation it has been in contact with.

COLUANS

Planet of origin: Colu (Yod), the only inhabitable planet of its solar system and is the fourth planet from its sun in the suburbs of the Magellanic Clouds. With polar ice caps and a few desert, it is mostly a temperate world with its surface covered half by land and half by water. Its capital is Metaire and most of its population resides in urban areas.

The Coluans appear as green-skinned humanoids with exceptionally long lifespans and very high intellectual capacities, both said to be due to genetic manipualtions. Living in a technologically highly advanced society with space faring capacity, They developed a computer network to run their world. The system developed sentience and took over complete control of the planet. The Coluans were under the rule of these Computer Tyrants for millenia until the end of the twentieth century. After their liberation from the Tyrants by one of their scientists, they prefered theoretical research to experimentation. But, accustomed to the rule of the Tyrants, stagnated in both fields.

The Shi'ar are oviparous humanoids of avian descent; resembling humans with feathered crests atop their heads in lieu of hair.They have light hollow bones, and some vestigial feathers on their forearms, left of wings that were lost over evolution. Through freak genetic throwbacks, some individuals still possess wings which allow them to fly. The average Shi'ar can lift 1 ton in earth-like gravity and has far greater stamina.

With a monarchic society, they are expansionnist and aggressively absorb new cultures.While the empire has grown to include hundreds of thousands of different sentient species and worlds, the Shi'ar race controls and governs the empire. Its central base of power is located on the "throneworld" Chandilar, while the Shi’ar homeworld is called Aerie. Leadership of the empire is am hereditary position, occupied by members of the royal family.The Shi'ar Empire is one of the most advanced and expansive civilizations in the universe, spanning an entire galaxy and spawning into others. It is mainly an economic co-operative, where trade is the driving force. Though having warlike and militaristic ancestry, the Shi'ar Empire has largely occupied the role of peacekeepers in many interstellar affairs.
In 1992, the Shi'ar annexed the Kree Empire at the end of the Kree-Shi'ar but internal affairs made the Shi’ar abandon their dominion soon after. Most recently, The Shi'ar have had contact with the Spartoi, described as an equally advanced distant race.
The Shi'ar possess faster than light starships, force fields, faster than light communication, teleportation technology, advanced holographic technology and Cloaking technology, Stargates network system used for travel to faraway distances, both planet-based used for personal travel and space-based versions used for starships to travel through, Starcracker technology that can cause stars to go supernova. Most of their technology is sentient.Source: X-Men vol. 1 #97 (February 1976) by Chris Claremont & Dave Cockrum. Marvel Universe

KREE

Planet of Origin: Hala, Pama System (Norhtwestern lobe of the Greater Magellanic Cloud)
The Kree are an humanoid species originating from planet Hala that developed an advanced interstellar civilisation. They resemble humans almost exactly but with blue skin and higher physical strength, due to their homeworld’s gravity, and require more nitrogen to breathe comfortably.
A million years ago the Skrulls came upon prehistoric Hala and they set about to educate the natives so they could join their trading empire. However, Hala was home to two equally intelligent races, the mammal Kree and the vegetal Cotati. The Skrulls proposed a test to determine the worthier race. Taking members of both races to a distant planetoid in the Milky Way, Earth's moon, the Skrulls created an arena and bid the two races to use the resources they had to create something of worth within one year’s time. The Kree constructed a magnificent city, while the Cotati created a beautiful garden. When the Skrulls returned, they found the Cotati's accomplishment the worthier. The Kree killed the Skrulls and the Cotati and seized the Skrulls' starship. They used it to return to their native planet, then set about deciphering its technology. Within a hundred years, the Kree empire began to spread throughout the Greater Magellanic Cloud. They launched an attack upon the Skrull empire.The Kree-Skrull War would continue for hundreds of thousands of years. At the same time the Cotati were driven to extinction. However, a small handful of Kree hid and kept safe a group of Cotati. Eventually they began worshipping them. To keep them safe, they relocated them throughout the universe. About 250 years later, aware that the Skrulls had once created an incredibly powerful artefact called the Cosmic Cube, the Kree designed a cybernetic/organic supercomputer called the Supreme Intelligence to help them in creating a Cube. When it became functional, it determined that a Cosmic Cube would be too dangerous to construct. The computer was then used simply in an advisory capacity. Over time, as the war with the Skrull dragged on, the Supreme Intelligence gradually accrued more and more political power and responsibility until finally it was elected as absolute ruler of the Kree. Eventually, the Supreme Intelligence came to be worshipped and an organized religion built up around it. Under its reign, The Kree Empire extended throughout nearly a thousand worlds in the northwestern lobe of the Greater Magellanic Cloud with outposts in other galaxies.
Since their unlikely accession to the status of interstellar civilisaiton, the Kree have become an evolutionarily stagnant race. In an attempt to further their development, some Kree bred with other species, producing the 'pink-skinned' Kree. These pinks eventually outnumbered the blue-skin but due to what they consider to be their genetic purity, remained second class citizens.
In 1992, not long after the conflicts with the Skrull ended, the Kree again found themselves embroiled in a war with the Shi'ar Empire. During the war, a powerful weapon known as the Nega-Bomb was detonated in Kree space. Negative energy was released into space causing an extremely powerful explosive and radioactive reaction, which devastated the Kree empire, killing over 90% of its 30 billion population, and led to its surrender to the Sh'iar. It was eventually revealed that the Supreme Intelligence was ultimately responsible for the bomb's detonation in a bid to kick-start the Kree race's genetic development. Kree territory was then annexed by the Sh'iar for a short while until internal problems made them abandon this dominion.
In 2007, the Kree Empire was subject to the attacks of the Annihilation Wave, which was halted on Hala.
The Kree are known to have come to Earth and experimented on humans to investigate possible ways of circumventing their evolutionary stagnation, and to create a powerful mutant race of soldiers for use against the Skrulls. However, although their experiments were successful in creating a strain of humanity with extraordinary and diverse abilities, the Kree abandoned their experiments.

IZARIANS

The Izarians are an humanoid species that developed a technologically advanced civilisation on a planet orbiting the star Izar.
They have developed teleporters on an interplanetary scale and advanced bioengineering and cybernetics which allow them to create large artificial beings and to modify themselves. High ranking officials will usually have undergone extensive modifications, often giving them giant proportions and non-standard physical features.
They came to Earth some 200 000 years ago with prospect of invasion but halted their plans upon discovering the planet atmosphere was not fully compatible with their biology. Their scouting party nevertheless stayed on Earth and established a secret base at the bottom of the Pacific ocean.
Toward the end of the 20th century, they realised that their homeworld was doomed as another planetoid was on a collision course with it. They reestablished plans of Earth conquest but were defeated.

MAKUU / C-REX

Makuu aka C-Rex are an aggressive and expansionnist advanced species naively bent on universal domination under the domination of Don Hora/Don Horror/Lou IBMX-11, a monstrous six-armed idol-like being which lives in a large structure in a pocket universe. It remains unclear if this dimension is a crossroad between our universe and another one and if the Makyy actually come from it but Don Hora is able to conjure other temporary pocket dimensions to serve as arenas where his subordinates terminate his adversaries.

The bulk of the Makuu/C-Rex forces are composed of humanoids with vaguely reptilian features. the most advanced can assume human form and even transform into bulkier monstrous creatures. Given the diversity of monstrous form different specimen can adopt, it is most likely the result of manipulation of the individual, either chemical, genetical or else.
The Makuu/C-Rex were exterminated from this universe around the end of the 20th century.

EDDORIANS

The Eddorians are a psychic dictatorial, power-hungry shapeless species from the planet Eddore in another universe where the laws of physics are different. They were attracted to this universe by the observation that the Milky Way and a sister galaxy, the Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte galaxy might be passing through each other. The Eddorians believed that this would result in the formation of billions of planets and the development of life upon them. Dominance over these life forms seemed to the Eddorians the logical course of action. This dominance isexercised on their behalf by a hierarchy of underling races. The Eddorians themselves are physically similar to various lower Earthly life-forms, reproducing by fission but by a process more similar to budding than to cell division, except that each being's memories are preserved. They are highly competitive, extremely long-lived, and almost impossible to kill

ARISIANS

Peaceful humanoid species that have developed what could be among the first sentient civilisation in our universe. They have forgone physical and developed tremendous mental power. Foreseeing the invasion of our universe by the Eddorians, a species from another universe, they began, over 2 billion years ago, a covert breeding program on every world that can produce intelligent life, with the aim of producing a means to eventually destroy the Eddorian race. Their work done, their plans are to remove themselves from the universe.
