PangoLiniens

PangoLiniens are a fictional species native to the planet Xylos in the Andromeda Galaxy. They are a sentient, silicon-based lifeform, characterized by their crystalline exoskeletons and bioluminescent internal structures. PangoLiniens communicate through a complex series of light pulses and subtle seismic vibrations, making their language undetectable to most other known species. Their physiology allows them to survive in environments with extreme temperatures and pressures, and they draw sustenance directly from geothermal energy.

The PangoLiniens have a highly communal and interconnected society, with individuals often sharing thoughts and experiences through a form of telepathic resonance facilitated by their crystalline bodies. Their society is structured around collective decision-making and a deep respect for their planet's delicate ecosystem. They possess advanced knowledge of geology and astromineralogy, having developed sophisticated technologies for subterranean exploration and resource management. Despite their advanced capabilities, the PangoLiniens are largely reclusive, having had minimal contact with interstellar civilizations, preferring to focus on their own internal development and the preservation of their homeworld. Their lifespan is estimated to be several millennia, during which they undergo several metamorphic stages.
