Andromedans are a spacefaring humanoid species from the Andromeda Galaxy.
Biology[]
Although all Andromedans have psychic abilities, the specific nature of their powers varies from individual to individual. Some are capable of telekinesis, projecting illusory images, or probing minds. They communicate solely by telepathy among themselves, and it seems that only experts at telepathy are also capable of speaking vocally, allowing them to communicate with other species.
Due to their different biochemistry, Andromedans can't stand physical contact with Humans, which is potentially fatal for both species: provoking severe radiation burns in Humans and causing Andromedans to become sick and die soon afterwards. Their bodies (including even their clothes) disappear after death, creating gusts of wind.
Andromedans can withstand a lot more physical stress and pressure than Humans. They require only small levels of oxygen, and can place their bodies in a dormant state that can survive for long periods with minimal resources.
