Comzetters

Comzetters are a fictional species native to the planet Xylos in the Andromeda galaxy. They are a silicon-based lifeform, characterized by their crystalline exoskeletons that shimmer with iridescent hues. Comzetters communicate through a complex series of light pulses emitted from specialized organs on their heads. Their physiology allows them to thrive in environments with high radiation and extreme temperatures, conditions that would be lethal to most carbon-based life.

Socially, Comzetters live in communal, hive-like structures carved into Xylos's rocky terrain. They are known for their meticulous craftsmanship, particularly in the creation of intricate crystal sculptures and energy-efficient tools. Their society is highly structured, with individuals assigned roles based on their crystalline composition and light-pulse patterns, which are believed to indicate aptitude and function.

The Comzetters have a deep understanding of celestial mechanics and energy manipulation. Their technology, while not overtly mechanical, is sophisticated and integrated with their natural abilities. They possess a unique method of interstellar travel, utilizing focused light beams for propulsion, though this is rarely employed for exploration beyond their immediate star system. Their interactions with other known species are infrequent and typically involve exchanges of knowledge or resources, conducted through intermediaries capable of translating their light-based language.
