SKYLINE ALIENS



The aliens travel through space, visiting planets on which they project sort of blue energy that connect them all as lure which mesmerizes indigenous lifeforms. The victims are then harvested before their central nervous system is extracted to be used, it seems, as power source. The aliens are divided in several specialised subspecies, some of which have been witnessed.

The largest known entity is the Mother Ships which comes in all shapes and size but is usually several hundred meters long and able to travel interstellar distances, transporting the smaller specimens of the species. They seem to be moving in pack from worlds to worlds.

The Tankers are anthropomorph entities 20 to 30 meters tall. They are used as cleanup crew, gathering the indigenous specimens that have escaped being lured by the blue light.

The Hydras are the big flying squid creatures.

The drones are smaller octopus creature, which are able to enter tighter spaces.

There seems to also be smaller anthropomorph aliens which stays inside the mothersip and most likely others which have not been witnessed yet.

NESTENE

Planet of Origin: Polymos, a world far from a red star with very little tectonic activity.
The Nestene Consciousness is a telepathic gestalt entity of pure psychic energy, somewhat amorphous or cephalopod-like in appearance. It developed on the planet Polymos, which it completely infused, destroying all other life on it.
It has the ability to transport sections of its mind through radio waves and possess plastic, shunting some of its consciousness into it or create a body out of it, allowing it to manipulate its surroundings.
Consciousness bits travel through space in hollow spheres known as energy units. These units make planetfall in formation, appearing like normal meteorites . Once the consiousness within those spheres is recombined and placed in an environment tank the Nestene will take on a form that it believes to be perfectly adapted to the planet on which it has landed.
Usually, the first spheres to arrive will attempt to place a local being under some form of mental control to regroup all the units together and fashion plastic automatons known as Autons, which may include replicas of key authority figures as well as simpler automatons. The Nestene will then use the Autons as an army to conquer the planet.

ARNOR / DREAD LORDS

Planet of Origin: Amalda in the Amaldia system
The Arnor were a powerful civilization that existed millions of years ago and which got politically divided in two factions, one calling themselves Arnor, the other one, Dread Lords. As the Dread Lords were on the brink of conquering the galaxy, the Arnor , on the brink of extinction, sealed them away into a pocket universe. It remains unknown what happened to them afterward.

ALTARIANS / DRATH


Planet of Origin: Altaria, a planet orbiting Altaris. Relocated to Dratha in the Drathis system after a war with the altarians.
The Drath Legion is a reptilian civilization that was nearly wiped out by their homeworld's other more numerous sentient species, the Altarians during a dominance war and who consider themselves the true Altarians. The Drath are passive-aggressive manipulators, remaining hidden and pulling the strings on the weak and powerful alike with subtlety in mind and seemingly infinite patience.

APLANS

Planet of origin: Alfava Metraxis, the seventh planet orbiting Dundra, in the Gan belt.
The Aplans are a peaceful bicephal humanoid species. Each heads has its own intelligence and personalities. They are prolific builders, and erected notable landmarks including the Aplan Mortaria, sometimes known as Mazes of the Dead, large subterranean labyrinths with tombs in the walls, adorned with statues of the dead. The Mazes hassix levels, representing the ascent of the soul in the Aplan religion. The Aplans adept at recording their social, cultural and political history.
In the 47th century, a large population of Weeping Angels came to Alfava Metraxis and hunted the Aplans to extinction, the Angel colony lacked any further energy source and over the centuries, the being energy deprived began to degrade and went into hibernation. After the Angels fell into a Crack in Time in the 51th century, they stopped existing, which means the Aplans could still be existing.
In the 49th century, the planet was terraformed by human settlers. As a result, the atmosphere boasted a high level of oxygen and a low amounts of toxins. It had an oxygen-rich atmosphere, and an eleven-hour day. During the 49th century, humans terraformed the planet and by the 51st century, six billion settlers had come to live there.

SATURNYNIANS


Planet of Origin: Saturnyne, an earth-type planet with huge bodies of water.
The Saturnynians are amphibians with fish and crustacean traits, They have a vaguely humanoid upper body, a fishlike head with sharp teeth and lobster-like lower body. They have a strong sensitivity to ultraviolet light, being repelled by smaller amounts and being incinerated by large amounts.
They are capable of converting some other species (like Humans) into Saturnynians by draining them of their blood and replacing it with their blood.
Some time in the species' history their home-world was besieged by the cracks in the universe, ranging from small cracks to cracks that consume the planet's sky. At first the cracks appeared to pose no real danger and the aliens were able to observe other worlds through some of them. Eventually, however, the true nature of the cracks became apparent and Saturnyne was lost. Some took their chances with the cracks that showed other worlds and fled to worlds with oceans like their own planet. One colony made it to Venice in 1580 but was only able to survive on Earth for a short while.

ZARANITES / ZARANS


Planet of Origin: planet Zaran II, the second planet of the Byrdica/Zaran system.
The Zaranites are a mammalian humanoid species known to the Federation during the mid-23rd century. They are fluorine breathers, requiring them to wear gas masks and protective suits in Earth-like environments.
The Zaran are a hunting species, and the females are known to have psionic powers which enable them to attract males by arousing hormones in both sexes. The arousal of hormones means that a life-bond is formed between a couple. The Zaran were first encountered by humans in the 2070s, and soon came under the control of a group of humans known as the Totality. The jewelry they wore is made from horns of the Berbbotjahaa; the top part of the necklace indicates their family, while the bottom identifies each individual.
The Federation made its diplomatic first contact with this race in 2257.

THOLIANS


Planet of Origin: Tholia (Tholis)
The Tholiansare an extremely xenophobic, non-humanoid hermaphroditic silicon based species with a propensity for precision who developed a space faring civilisation as of the 22nd century.
They are living mineral formations with their cells being mostly crystalline although they are believed to contain a fluid medium which carries out metabolic processes. Their skins are mostly faceted with each Tholian seemingly bearing a unique color scheme with an infinite variety of tones being present amongst them.
They breathe through a form of anaerobic respiration with a methane-chlorine mixture being used. While their cells' functions resemble those of humanoid cells, Tholian cells contain an electrical charge in each cell nucleus. The Tholians also possess some form of electromagnetic organnelle within their bodies.
Tholians are approximately the same height as a Human and are incased in an exoskeleton. They have six thin legs that makes it possible for the being to move in any direction quickly; the legs are articulated with joints roughly corresponding to the knee and ankle of humanoid species. Each leg ends in a multi-toed foot. The legs are attached at the base of the torso and are radially symmetric. There are two arms; each has joints analogous to the humanoid elbow and wrist, and each arm ends in a multi-fingered hand. They have no neck but two glowing spots near the top of their torso. They turn these to face individuals with whom they interact, which suggests they have some sort of information-gathering organ. Tholians have two sexes, but each individual had both sets of sexual organs. They exist at high temperatures – in excess of 450 Kelvin (177 °C, 350 °F). They can tolerate lower temperatures for a brief period of time; if they are exposed to too low temperatures, their carapace cracks. In temperatures even lower, a Tholian would freeze solid and shatter.
The Tholians possess a form of networked intelligence in addition to their sentience as individuals. Whilst they do share their memories between generations or familial structures, the process did not create a "hive mind". They also possess a kind of shared memory archive for their species known as the Lattice.
Tholians are naturally able to emit various forms of radiation, which they can modulate to communicate over short distances but they communicate primarily through a series of clicks and chirps.
The head governmental unit of the Tholians is the Tholian Assembly. During the mid-22nd century, the Vulcans had limited contact with the Assembly. Contact with the Tholians over the next century would be sporadic but aggressive and territorial. Tholians rarely advanced very far from their home system, and are known to kill outsiders caught trespassing in their territory. They were also known to frequently annex surrounding systems outside of the Assembly, to further isolate their territory.

MELMACS / MELMACIANS


Planet of Origin: Melmac, which was destroyed in the 1980ies, leaving but a few survivors.
Melmacians are a species of short-statured sapients of omnivorous mammalianoid, furry bipedals with dense, usualy brown fur covering their entire bodies, except for their faces, they have large feet and four-fingered hands. They have a lifespan of around 650 years. By the inclusion of a plant called the Carl Shrub in their diet, Melmacians are also immune to infectious disease. Their blood is green-colored and they have ten major organs in their bodies, eight of which are stomachs. When a Melmacian eats excessively, instead of getting fatter like most species, they get denser. Eating enormous quantities of food might be extremely dangerous, as it puts them at risk of physical implosion. If a Melmacian spends too much time without eating enough, they will partially lose their sense of reality and start regressing to a hunter state, searching for food in the wilds.
Melmacians have developed an advanced space faring civilisation.

RAXACORICOFALLAPATORIANS / SLITHEEN / BLADEREEN


Planet of Origin: Raxacoricofallapatorius, a paradise planet with burgundy seas and four polar regions. Its twin planet is Clom.
Raxacoricofallapatorians are eight feet tall humanoids with long forearms and powerful claws who have developed a space faring civilisation as of the 20th century. Theyhave large blakc round eyes with a nictitating membrane instead of eyelids. Their highly-developed sense of smell makes them able to track a single target across a few city blocks. Females can produce poisons which they can use for attakc or defense. Known methods of delivery include a poisoned dart that is formed in the finger and then fired and exhalation of poisoned breath. Skin color can vary from green to orange.
They are vulnerable to acetic acid, which reacts explosively—and fatally—with their bodies. One of the Raxacoricofallapatorian methods of execution is the lowering of the condemned into a cauldron of acetic acid, which is then heated to boiling. The acidity of the solution is formulated to dissolve the skin, allowing the internal organs to drop into the liquid while the condemned is still alive, reducing them to "soup" and resulting in a slow and painful death.
They are known to disguise themselves by fitting into the skins of their victims, using compression fields created by a collar worn around their necks to squeeze their huge size into a slightly smaller space.

Planet of Origin: Usurius
The Usurians are a fungous species looking like a small handful of green kelp in their natural form but which is able to assume the shape of other species they interact with as long as they expose themselves to certain radiation. Shock can force them to revert to their natural form.
The Usurians have developed an advanced interstellar civilisation. They abandoned military conquest in favour of economic conquest.
In the future, they enslaved humanity after their engineers made Mars suitable for human habitation, humans having depleted the Earth's resources. Once humanity had depleted Mars's resources as well, the Usurians engineered Pluto so that humans could inhabit it. They created six artificial "Suns" around it and installed the Collector to oversee the collection of taxes from their human workforce. They intended to abandon Pluto and leave humanity to become extinct once the humans had exhausted its resources, there being no economically viable planet to relocate humanity to once more. The humans on Pluto revolted against the Collector and seized control of Pluto before relocating to Earth as it has in fact regenerated in their absence.

LAMETALIANS / RAMETALIANS




Planet of Origin: LaMetal. 
For millenias, the planet Lametall orbited the dark sun Ra. Ra followed an extremely large elliptical orbit which completed a revolution around the Sun in a 1,000 year period. Its orbit brought it, after a long journey in the far reaches of the outer solar system through the system's ecosphere. As far as it can be traced, by a capcrice of celestial mechanics, Ra was always hidden by Lametal from Earth's point of view. 
Circa 1999, the planet passed nearer to the Earth than it ever did before. Its atmosphere extended like a tail and fused with Earth’s atmosphere. This phenomenon, called the “Atmospheric Bridge” was short lived as  the “bridge” collapsed and disappeared 48 hours after LaMetal had started to move away from Earth. Their proximity to the Sun then slingshut Lametal and Ra out of the Solar system, heading toward the Andromeda galaxy.
Lametal is a planet with an air pressure, gravity, and atmospheric components which are roughly the same as Earth’s. However, it is much bigger. Observations vary as to its exact size. Some sources talk of a diameter of 109,404 km -about nine times Earth’s size- while other observations gave it only three times the size of the Earth. Those discrepencies in observations might be the result of visual distorsion caused by Ra's gravity well. It is known to be hollow with a moon-size core at its center. Its speed of rotation is 48 hours 22 minutes 43 seconds. 
The surface of the planet is usually covered by a thick layer of ice with a maximum extent of 3,000 meters. It is a bitterly cold world with a surface temperature of -280°C. 
During its time in the Solar System, each time it was coming near enough to the Sun, the ice melted, seas were born and cities buried underneath the ice began to appear, among them, the capital, Miyu City. The planet then knew a brief summer before its orbit brought it back toward the colder outer solar system. As it did, ice began to cover the planet again, starting at its poles and moving toward the equator.
After its departure from the Solar System, an orbital artificial sun was enginneered. It lasted  a thousand years before dying out. Then began the mechanisation of Lametal's population to ensure they could carry on in the depths of interstellar space. A civil insued, culminating with the destruction of the planet's outer shell. Luckily this happened as the planet was entering Euphrates, a binary star system locked in a fixed position halfway between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy. the inner core on which survivors had found shelter soon stabilised around Heavy Melder, one of the system's planet and became its moon.
Lametalians are humanoids looking much like Earth's humans but have much longer lifespans. They used to put themselves in hibernation while their planet was in the outer solar system, awakening only during their spring, as the planet was entering the inner system. At each passage of their world in the inner solar sytem, they had sent emissaries to Earth and had their planet not left the Solar System, they planned upon resettling on it. After its departure toward Andromeda. A plan was put in place to gradually transform the whole population into cyborgs in order for them to be able to survive in the intersideral void. When the planet's core put itself into Heavy Melder's orbit, the organics stayed while the mechanized ones continued toward Andromeda where they established themselves. 
It should be noted, as Lametal presumably gave birth to at least to a viable ecosystem and maybe a intelligent life (although it is dubious that human looking lifeforms would develop in parallel on both Earth and Lametal without any common origin whatsoever) that the planet was most probably in a much stabler orbit around the sun at one point, most presumably in the inner solar system, from which it has been torn at some point in the past.
It should also be noted that it took about a thousand years for the wandering Lametal to journey the 1,3 million light years separating the Solar System from the Euphrates star system which is halfway from the Milky Way to the Andromeda Galaxy; something that is physically impossible unless the planet was travelling faster than the speed of light or using shortcuts from point A to point B.
The two aforementionned points may be related to the presence of the black sun Ra in the vicinity of Lametal.

NOO



The Noo is a consciousness that developed just after the Big Bang during Plank Time and encompassed all the universe until is was sealed outside of it by the laws of physics. At the dawn of the 4th Millenium AD a scientific expedition journeyed to the Hourglass Nebula and discovered the gate of Yedar, a passage leading to the dimension where Noo was bannished. The scientists were possessed by the Noo, which enabled it to interact with our universe. Its ultimate goal is to fully return to our universe by reclaiming a part of its original body-in this case, the Earth itself. The possessed warped the planet into an alternate dimension using a Density Serial Cannon. The space pirate Harlock tricked the Noo into shooting its ship the Arcadia with the weapon, allowing him to meet it on its own ground and restore the Earth.
Noo's influence on our dimension lies in creating fear in sentient beings and thereby enslaving their wills and driving them against one another.

MONGOVIANS

Planet of Origin: Mongo, a rogue planet that passed through our solar system in 1933. Mongo is an inhospitable planet, with various extreme climate zones. Travelers to Mongo must pass through a "Death Zone" on the way, described as being "a zone devoid of any force". Mongo has at least two recognised moons, one of them being the planetoid Lunita. Mongo is approximately one of the diameter of earth but has a gravitational density that is only slightly less. It is a relatively young world with towering mountains not yet worn smooth by time and many areas of volcanic activity. Its vegetation is still limited to isolated areas of botanical giants.
Mongovians are humanoid looking much like Earht humans, with some subspecies having some morphological particularities such as lionmen and hawkmen.
In 1933, the mongovians were living under the control of a dictator, Emperor Ming. The people of Mongo had progressed scientifically beyond Earth. According to Ming, "the reason for our success is that we possess none of the human traits of kindness, mercy or pity! We are coldly scientific and ruthless!" The capital of Mongo is Minog City, also known as Nascent City. The main currency is the gold mingol. The area around the Emperor's palace is desolate and devoid of vegetation. Giant dragons live in the nearby caves. Other vicious animals of Mongo include monkey men, orangopoids and white-striped, bear-like animals.
The oceans of Mongo are home to giant sea life, including eels, sharks, water dragons and octosaks.
The planet is socially and geographically divided in several realms and the major ones are:
* Arboria is a forest principality governed by Prince Barin
* Frigia, a frozen kingdom ruled by Barin's cousin, Queen Fria,
* Coralia is an underwater kingdom beneath the Sea of Mystery. It is located east of Arboria and is ruled by Queen Undina,
* The Land of the Lion Men also borders the Sea of Mystery, and is ruled by King Jugrid and Prince Thun,
* The Magnetic Mountains are located east of the Land of the Lion Men and became the base of operations for Ming, after he was deposed
* The Sky City of the Hawk Men is located north of the Magnetic Mountains, and the leader of this realm is King Vultan,
* Tropica is a continent of forests. It is directly east of the Sky City. Queen Desira rules Tropica.
* The Fire Lands are located on the east coast of Tropica.

The M Space hunter Nebula Aliens are an insectoid species looking much like human-sized cockroacheswhich developed sentience and civilisation after the fall of the previous owner of their homeworld disappeared, leaving behind a dying planet, long plagued by pollution. It remains unknown if those previous inhabitants left the planet or became extinct but they were said to have been much closer to humans than the insectoids are. It also remains unknowns if they themsleves developed space faring technology or if they inherited it from their predecessors .

The insectoids made a desperate attempt to invade Earth in the 1970ies, disgused as humans and using the alien monsters Gigan and King Ghidorah they controled via technoloigcal means but their attempt was thwarted by the earth mutant monsters Godzilla and Anguirus. They later formed a deal with the seatopian human subculture living under the earth and showed them how to control the Gigan cyborg but with as disastrous results. The exact nature of their deal remains unknown.

PSYCHONS


Planet of Origin: Psychon (in another galaxy of the Local Group). Psychon had one moon, similar to Earth's one. As of the end of the second millenium, the planet has become geologically unstable.
Psychons are humanoids looking much like humand who developed an advanced civilisation and some space faring capacities. Some psychons are known to have developed psionic powers allowing them molecular transformation and/or mind control.
After attempted invasions by the Dorcons who abducted numbers of Psychons, the planet was left unstable. Either to find an new home or escape their aggressor, most of the inhabitants of the planet had left it by the beginning of the third millenium, leaving only the scientist Mentor and his daughter on the planet, trying to stabilise it with a biological computer named Psyche. Some escapees made contact with the Croton civilisation. Their insertion was complicated by the attempt by one of them to seize power through mind control.
