Relon

Relons are a race of non-humanoids from a galaxy approximately 300 trillion lightyears from the galaxy. They are most known for their peculiar appearance and their technology, which is much more advanced than anything known in the galaxy.

Physical Appearance
Relons are hexi-pedes, with six crab-like legs. They have three large, retractable tentacles at the forward end of their abdomen, which act as reproductive organs. The thorax is very thin, with four, three-fingered, clawed hands. A set of six mandibles extend from the back, which act as legs to help in moving through tight areas, as well as defensive mechanisms.

The head is the most complex structure. A mouth of nine, beak-like teeth sits at the bottom of a long, oval-shaped head. Eighteen small tentacles extend from the mid-right and -left sides of the head. Eight black, bettle-like eyes sit in two columns on the head starting at the upper mouth and going almost to the top of the forward section of the head. The nose is three slits just below the first two pairs of eyes.

The Relons are black in appearance, with arteries glowing fluorescent blue.

Mental Capacity
The Relons have no vocal chords. Their communication is completely through mind contact. Their brains are the most complex of any known to any quadrant of the galaxy. It is believed that they are able to communicate directly into each other's minds, as well as into the minds of lesser creatures (such as Humans or humanoids)). What exactly is heard in each mind is different, since it is thoughts and not words that are exchanged when a Relon "speaks" through using its mind.
