Filar-Nitzan

The Filar-Nitzan were a polymorphic sentient species indigenous to the Wild Space planet DNX-N1. They resembled colored fog or smoke, with two eyes in a color opposite that of the main body: green Filar-Nitzan had red eyes, blue Filar-Nitzan had orange eyes, and so on. The species' gaseous nature made them immune to physical damage, and it allowed them to change shape quickly enough to avoid energy attacks; they could even diffuse damage from blaster bolts with a difficult-to-learn skill. However, their lack of a rigid form also prevented Filar-Nitzan from easily manipulating solid objects.

Commonly considered legends, Filar-Nitzan were nearly unknown in the galaxy beyond their star system. They featured in stories as cloud demons and gas devils, entities reputed to be dangerous killers and frightening apparitions. Few xenobiologists were aware of the species' existence; those who were speculated that some four hundred individuals comprised the species' entire population. Nevertheless, some Filar-Nitzan integrated into the greater galaxy as infiltrators and spies.
