Altrusian

Altrusians are an ancient alien race who created the Land of the Lost. They later devolved into creatures called Sleestak. Enik is a member of their earlier, more advanced form. 
==Culture and Science==
Altrusian technology was based on energy-holding trans-dimensional Crystals and they have been responsible for building of the Lost City, the Pylons, Skylons and possible the entirety of the Land of the Lost universe. They also possess a degree of telepathic ability.
==Physiology==
On average, an Altrusian is similar to a Human. The main difference being that Altrusians appear to be a reptilian species. They have thin but wide-set mouths and large, round black eyes. However, unlike the Sleestak, they seem to be able to tolerate light as well as a human. Covered mostly in brown scales, their bellies are yellow. Like the Sleestak they also have claws on their feet and on their hands, with a horn protruding from the top of their heads.
==Notes and Trivia==
* Altrusians and Sleestak look virtually identical.
* Though little is known of the history of the Altrusian race, it was revealed in the "Lost Island" segment of one edition of The Krofft Superstar Hour that at some point following Enik's departure from his original era, human beings all but committed genocide on his people. It was a good thing he learned this after his experiences with the Marshall family! It also goes some way towards explaining how the Altrusians degenerated into the Sleestak.
