Cyclops (Roswell Conspiracies)

The Cyclops are a race of robots designed by the Titani to protect worlds from invasion.

Design
Enormous black mechanical giants with a single red eye. They possess the ability to mind control and to fire lasers from their eyes. Damaging their eyes can incapacitate them, but they possess an internal repair mechanism that can put them into working operation despite centuries of neglect, as shown from a Cyclops that laid dormant for centuries with its eye impaled, only to repair itself once the obstruction was gone.

History
The Cylops were constructed by the Titani, and sent to Earth to protect the planet from the Shadoens. In addition to being the basis for the Cyclops, another member was known as the basis for the myth of the giant automaton known as Talos. The Cyclops successfully defended the planet in the 15th century BC, but wiped out the Aegean civilization (Atlantis: the most prosperous human culture at the time) in the process via a unintended tsunami. They were reactivated later on and tried to fire a massive beam cannon on the island of Santorini at the second Shadoen invasion, but were destroyed by the Alliance under the manipulation of Rinaker, who was secretly a Shadoen agent.
