Gilt Proto

Gilt Proto was leader of a race of blob-like aliens on a planet the Robinsons landed on. The blob creatures were drab in color with spherical golden eyes. The blob creatures were never identified by name or race in the show. The episode's end credits identified the only speaking blob creature as Gilt Proto. The race moved about by unknown means—having a bell shaped lower half which obscured their means of movement; the race was also capable of transportation and disintegration. The race appeared to reside in a building pulsating with green light and humanoid statues out front. The race had the ability to suspend the animation of its foes, while maintaining their consciousness. Gilt Proto wore an amulet which lit up around his neck. This aided in some of his powers, but did not appear to be necessary in most cases. The alien blob race had no distinguishing characteristics from member to member—a quality which Gilt Proto said limited them. They desired individualism, but found they were not yet ready to take on all aspects such a transformation entailed.
