Wak and Neek's species

An unnamed species of sapient spacefaring life forms. The only known members of this species are Wak, his sister Neek, and their father.

Biology
These aliens are large creatures: an adult member is at least three meters tall. They have robust bodies, two arms and two legs, and their eyes are located on stalks. As children, they have a pair of antennae, which seem to develop into a second pair of small arms when they reach adulthood. They have five fingers on their hands, including an opposeable thumb. Their fingers and toes are long, dexterous, and terminate in suction cups. Similar suction cups are also present on the palms of their hands and the soles of their feet, and produce a distinctive sound when they walk around. They can eat metallic objects such as a harmonica with no difficulty.

Culture and society
These aliens have access to highly advanced technology, including enormous spaceships and devices that can implant messages into the dreams of other life forms.

They have received transmissions of Earth television and films, and are wary of making contact with Humans due to the violence perpetrated by Humans against extraterrestrials in films.
