lumenébes

Lumenébes are a fictional species originating from the planet Xylos in the fictional Andromeda Galaxy. Described in various science fiction works, they are often depicted as beings of pure energy or light, hence their name, which translates roughly to "light beings" in their native Xylosian tongue. Physically, Lumenébes are said to possess no solid form, instead appearing as luminous, often multi-colored orbs or intricate patterns of light that can shift and change shape.

Their reproduction is typically described as a form of energetic fission or fusion, where new Lumenébes are created from the amalgamation or division of existing energy. They communicate through complex patterns of light pulses and resonant frequencies, a form of telepathy or direct energy transfer that is beyond human comprehension. Lumenébes are often portrayed as highly intelligent and ancient, possessing a deep understanding of the universe and its fundamental forces. Their society, if it can be called that, is thought to be communal and telepathic, with individuals sharing thoughts and experiences seamlessly. Due to their non-corporeal nature, they are generally considered non-hostile, though their interactions with physical beings can sometimes be perceived as enigmatic or even frightening due to their alien nature. They are believed to subsist on ambient cosmic energy.
