The Leigun

The Leigun are an inorganic, extradimensional race that has existed for many millennia. They are very ferocious, able to infest and take over entire planets over a short amount of time. But unlike their organic rivals, the inorganic Leigun can do many things organic races cannot. They can survive in the void of space, grow to enormous sizes, and expel incredible amounts of energy from their bodies to crush their foes. They can also change shape, such as mimicking the appearance of a friendly being in order to stalk and take organic hosts. They do not usually have eyes, "seeing" with an energy-sense instead.
In general, Leigun are energy parasites, preying on organic creatures for their precious life force. Leigun then process this life force into a potent form of energy that can sustain them for long periods of time. They cannot live outside of a host or their crystalline shells, as the physics of this universe would destroy them.
==Technology==
Technology of the Leigun is similar to that of the Crystallites, only they are focused on stealth and cunning in order to catch prey. Leigun armor is also incredibly difficult to penetrate. Leigun may also adapt organic traits to themselves after taking hosts of another race and then use it as their own. Sometimes they will use other races and start wars between them for their own advantages. Why build a fleet when you can just steal one? This tactic has led to the fall of many worlds.
==Culture==
Leigun have no beliefs nor guidelines. They follow a caste-system as seen in insects. You have the workers, the breeders, the soldiers, as well as a Queen on each infested planet to maintain control. The purpose of the Leigun is to infest, feed, and destroy. Over many years, they have become very efficient at this task.
==Recent==
It was revealed on August 29, 3020 that not all Leigun are malevolent. Azaerous, a diminutive Leigun scientist, explained that Zxoll and his forces do not speak for all Leigun.
