Overview

The Drurllons are a race of shapeshifters from the Andromeda Galaxy, who are a ferocious warrior race, maybe the most devious race in the cosmos and yet are also a noble warrior race. Drurllons have carved for themselves the oldest interstellar empire in the universe's history.

History

Written by: Joshua W. Murcray

The Drurllons are most distrusted as a result of their legendary xenophobia; Some of the galaxy's mistrust of Drurllons stems from their native shape-shifting ability.

Drurllon

A new sub-species of Drurllons has been uncovered in the last century, called the Chi Randikai. A prophecy states that one from this group will somehow lead Drurllons society to a peaceful alliance with worlds and will no longer need to go to war.

The Drurllons conquered or colonized every suitable world in the Andromeda Galaxy. Dominating a galaxy with millions of inhabited worlds. In the last 100 years, the Drurllons have waged interstellar warfare with the Khreeunds and Hirudinean. The Drurllons have come to the Milky Way Galaxy in the search for a new battle, unless the Chi Randikai can stop them.

Physiology

Drurllon Physiology:

Drurllons possess the ability to transform their body's size, shape, color and substance to mimic any person, creature or object and for any length of time with little limitation on size or shape due to their near total control over their molecular biology. As such their physiology is in constant flux, meaning no need to take a single form. A Drurllon is able to reconstitute even if they are reduced to a liquid form. Drurllons are able to alter their forms into that of anything they can imagine, be it organic or inorganic. It must, however, be solid. They can also use their abilities to grow extra limbs. The native chosen form is a giant mass of tentacles hidden under robes. They have no apparent size limit, as they have been seen to assume the form of a common housefly and shapes many times larger than their normal selves. Drurllons can also use their shape-shifting capabilities to change their sex: males can become females and vice versa.

Powers

Through the use of their physiology being in flux, many of them have developed the following powers:

Bio-Fission: Drurllons can duplicate themselves.

Bio-Fusion: The Drurllon race is capable of polymorphically shape-changing in unison in order to create warp drive capable space ships out of their conjoined substance.

Elasticity, Elongation, Plasticity: Their shape-shifting abilities allow them to alter their bodies in much the same way as Mr. Excelsior, so that they can stretch to great lengths, or form other shapes with their bodies, such as balls, parachutes, or anything else. Having a malleable form, Drurllons can stretch and extend their form despite being in a solid form.

Elemental Control: Drurllons, in their shifted form, can generate the functional capacity of most technological appliances. Such as ignition thrust for inter-galactic transport ships or simulating air supply for a deep space breathing apparatus.

Enhanced Senses: Drurllons can scan objects and/or living forms and store their shape into their brains. Scanning with their antenna takes only a few moments and the Drurllon can take that form at any time.

Flight: They are able to fly by shape-shifting a pair of wings onto their back, or turning their arms into wings.

Size Alteration: They are also capable of altering their size independently of altering their form, allowing them to grow or shrink while maintaining their current form.

Telepathy: Within the Chi Randikai there are a minority that possess telepathic abilities. They have been seen to serve the empire in the imperial court as "Priest of the Mind" and in the armed forces.

Abilities

Drurllon

Mimicry: The Drurllons are natural mimic's with most being able to act like the person or animal they have morphed into. They are able to alter their vocal cords to sound like anyone, but are limited to their own personal knowledge of their language and speech patterns. They are not limited to living creatures either, as Drurllon's are able to simulate bio-mechanical engineering on par with even the most complex of starship mechanics. Drurllons are cunning spies due to their ability to mimic sounds and voices. This is mainly used in conjunction with the shapes they shift into.

Weapon Formation: Drurllons are able to use their shapeshifting abilities to form weapons with parts of their bodies. For instance, they can shape their arms into blades or clubs including guns. This ability makes them dangerous hand-to-hand combatants.

Weaknesses

Cyber-Virus: Drurllon physiology is particularly vulnerable to the Cyber-Virus, Drurllons exposed to it show changes within an hour and die within two days.

Deviant Fever: The fever is a Drurllon disease that can be fatal for some. It freezes the infected Drurllon in whatever form they are in at the time. The disease also affects the person's memory, wiping out whole portions of a person's life.

Loud Sounds: Very high decibel sounds have been shown capable of temporarily disabling a Drurllon, and in the case of the Chi Randikai, will cause them to lose control of their powers.

Power Duplication Limitation: Drurllons are limited to the physical capabilities of the form they take. For instance, they cannot gain a Stronxamitians enhanced cells. However, they can fly like a bird and/or sting like a bee.

Pressure Points: The natural shape of a Drurllon possesses 18 pressure points that "when properly struck will cause pain and injury, even death".

Shapeshifting Limitations: Drurllons can only take on the appearance of a person and none of that person's characteristics or, in the case of superhumans, their powers. When they imitate an inorganic object, they take on its appearance, but not its properties. The inability to replicate powers does not apply to the Chi Randikai. There is a limit to the size of the object or person a Drurllon can imitate. They can enlarge the space between their molecules up to a certain point before they begin to literally break apart, just as they can only shrink the space between their molecules to a certain point before there is no more room.

Skrullite: An extremely rare artificial chemical which freezes Drurllons in the shape they are currently in. It is believed to be a weaponized form of the Deviant Fever.

Drurllon

Ashes to Ashes: At the moment of death, Drurllons revert to their original form.

Long Life: Drurllons have a natural lifespan of around 210 years.

Oviparous: Drurllons are oviparous. Drurllon females do not give live birth; instead, they lay eggs like their evolutionary ancestors. Drurllon children are known as "hatchlings". Drurllons have hair and the females have mammary glands and nurse their young. Attempts at reproduction can be more effective at certain times during their reproductive cycle. Drurllons are capable of producing hybrid offspring with humans and Khreeunds.

Xenophobia: Drurllons strictly prohibit any visitation by outsiders and do not often leave their own world, except to go to war.
