Metrollers

Metrollers are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos. They are known for their unique biological structure, which allows them to adapt to various environmental conditions by altering their density and mass. This adaptation is a key survival mechanism, enabling them to traverse diverse terrains and withstand extreme pressures.

Physically, Metrollers exhibit a semi-amorphous form, lacking a rigid skeletal system. Their bodies are composed of a complex network of energy-conducting fibers that can manipulate gravitational fields on a small scale. This allows them to achieve a state of near-weightlessness for rapid locomotion or become incredibly dense to anchor themselves. Their primary sensory organs are sensitive to subtle shifts in energy signatures, enabling them to perceive their surroundings in a way alien to most organic lifeforms.

The Metroller society is highly communal, with individuals often merging their consciousnesses for collective problem-solving and decision-making. This telepathic ability, amplified by their energy-conducting biology, forms the basis of their civilization. They are an ancient species, having developed advanced technology focused on energy manipulation and interdimensional travel long before their first contact with other galactic civilizations. Their motivations are generally peaceful, driven by a desire for knowledge and understanding of the universe.
