Telethia

Telethia are an enemy species in Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles X.
==Xenoblade Chronicles==
Pure-blooded High Entia turn into Telethia if they come in contact with high concentrations of ether. There are four common phenotypes of Telethia; the "Phoenix"-type Telethia are humanoid with insectoid features, the "Licorne"-type Telethia have a large torso and a carpet-like body, the "Drakos"-type Telethia are winged aerial leviathans, and finally, the "Gigas"-type Telethia are winged, quadrupedal beasts with three heads and two tails and are the strongest. Telethia can use Soul Read to read their opponents minds and counteract it and if a vision occurs, the Telethia can change the it in its favour. The Telethia are essentially the "white blood cells" of the Bionis; their only purpose is to destroy intelligent life.
===Story===
====Xenoblade Chronicles====
The first Telethia seen is the Sani Telethia where it saves Shulk and the party from Metal Face, before meeting up with its handler, Alvis. 
In Makna Forest, Melia and four others, , Damil, Garan, and Hogard attempted to destroy the , but were killed in the process and rendered Melia unconscious. Three Telethia attacks Shulk while collecting Water Ether Crystals but with the assistance of Alvis who in turn teaches him the Art, they were destroyed, this is when the party is introduced to the Telethia properly. The party later assists Melia and Riki (who's in debt to Frontier Village) in destroying the Leone Telethia before returning to Alcamoth.
In the High Entia Tomb, a Solidum Telethia was summoned by Tyrea in her attempt to kill Melia. But with the party's intervention, they managed to destroyed it and thus the assassination attempts fails, but Tyrea manages to escape.
Fossilized Telethia are seen littered across the abandoned city of Agniratha. The party later sees a holographic video of them destroying Agniratha and killing its inhabitants. After the Bionis awakens, Zanza sinks Prison Island into its head, releasing a large amount of Ether that transforms the High Entia on Alcamoth into Telethia. After the party escapes the doomed Mechonis on Junks, Zanza's disciple Dickson ambushes them with an army of Telethia, but were assisted by Kallian and his Havres squad. However, Lorithia reveals to be another one of Zanza's disciples turns them, including Kallian into Telethia.
After landing in Colony 6, Dickson returns with another army of Telethia and attacks the colony, but with Shulk unconscious, the party is forced to fend them off without him. As they struggle, Shulk manages to regain consciousness and joins the party in fending them off. Alvis later reveals himself as yet another one of Zanza's disciples and summons the Sani Telethia to fight the party but it is defeated, prompting him and Dickson to retreat. At this point, Telethia can be found in several areas of the Bionis.
In the Bionis' Interior, the party encounter several Telethia during their journey to its heart. There, they are confronted by Lorithia who fuses with the transformed Kallian and attacks the party but is defeated.
As the party confronts Dickson atop of , Colony 6 came under attack again, but are fended off by Juju, Otharon, the Defence Force and some Face Mechon. Before the party confronts Zanza in Memory Space, he has a vision of Telethia wiping out life on Bionis before being abruptly cut off.

===List of Telethia===
==Xenoblade Chronicles X==
There is one Telethia that resides at the top of the Divine Roost in the northern heights of Noctilum: . It lives inside the gargantuan plant in the middle and makes a large circle around that area regularly.
During the events of , three Tainted Sphinxes are about to attack Elma, Lao, and their team. Suddenly, the Telethia comes to save them by snatching one, dropping it from the sky, and then smashing it into the ground. It then takes out the other two, destroying them without mercy before regarding Elma and her team. Eventually, it flies back into the sky, leaving the team to wonder if it was helping them or just toying with them.
The Telethia is also known for their guardian etherscales, which are part of an ancient Nopon remedy that Cross and L are tasked to get during the mission The Nopon Heir. While they only manage to damage it slightly, it decides to give them one without destroying them, perhaps because L claims it can read the hearts of those it sees and judge their worth.
===Description===
Said to be Mira's guardian and culler of unclean lifeforms, the Telethia is also known as the "Ruler of Fates." It is rumored to have mind-reading abilities that make it virtually invincible--a theory strengthened by the fact that is has never been defeated in combat. As if that wasn't enough, the creature's vast wings also have the ability to amplify and manipulate ether in the surrounding atmosphere.
