Galvan

Galvans, or "Grey Matter," (the latter a play on actual grey matter and Greys, the former a play on galvanization) are an gextraterrestrial species of small bipedal frog-like beings from the planet Galvan Prime.

It is unknown why Azmuth, a male Galvan, has facial hair. They are raised to be extremely intelligent, and bred to enter complex machines and operate them from the inside. This allows them to understand and operate virtually any machine, even if they've never seen it before. Galvans are easily trampled because of their small size. Galvans are the smartest species in the galaxy and the only race that can compete, even rival, with their intellects are the Cerebrocrustaceans.

Appearance
The typical Galvan is five inches tall, with soft and flexible bones that allow them to squeeze into tight spaces or spring quickly from danger. And while their slimy skin allows Galvans to stick to almost any surface, it also makes them equally difficult to grab hold of. Known for evasion rather than confrontation and lacking any actual combat prowess, Galvans have developed intellectual capacities far beyond those of neighboring species. Incessant collectors of all things technological, they are raised to enter complex machines and operate them from the inside. Galvans must remain ever vigilant because in a dangerous galaxy, size still matters and Galvans are easily trampled underfoot. The Galvans are a small frog-like bipedal creatures. They have large squarish green eyes, sharp teeth, and grey skin. Male Galvans do not have hair, while female Galvans do.

Powers and Abilities

 * They are very intellectual, being the creators of much of the great technology around the universe, such as the Potis Altiare, the Unitrix, the Omnitrix, the Ultimatrix, the Galvanic Mechamorphs and Null Void Guardian species, the Null Void dimension, the Polymorph's anti-gravity projector, Primus, Voliticus Biopsis, an unknown third Omnitrix, a Universal Translator, and they even rebuilt their own homeworld, Galvan Prime, calling it Galvan Mark 2 (Dwayne McDuffie confirmed all of this, plus that technology is like a playtoy to Galvans).
 * They have slimy skin, letting them evade capture and scale walls.
 * Sharp teeth.
 * They also have an immense lifespan of thousands of years, revealed by Azmuth (who is already very old) when he says he expects to "only" live another three thousand years.

Weaknesses
Being small sized the Galvans do not match physically with most species, especially their extinct predator the Omnivoracious.

Culture
They are Incessant collectors of all things technological, they are raised to enter complex machines and operate them from the inside.

Religion
The primitive Galvans used to worship technology gods, such as the one that Azmuth's Bio suit is based on.
