Description
This is six days late, but a lot of life happened in between. Anyhow, here's Hush!

Basic info:
*Hush is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of an Athost from the cavernous canyon planet, Hikori, in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Equipment:
*Hush wears a Hikorian Synapse Translator that allows his thoughts to be projected as audible speech. It also serves as his respirator.

Power set:
*Sound absorption and negation: Hush's body hosts a large amount of a sound absorbent semifluid that allows him to negate any sound he naturally would make. Functionally, this makes Hush completely soundless, allowing him to easily sneak away or behind an enemy to surprise them.
*Radiolocation: His eye is evolved to literally see any sort of wavelength, including sound waves, from as close as his palms to as far as a mile away from him. Because of this, even intangible opponents are perfectly within his line of sight no matter what.
*Malleable body: Hush's body is somewhat like a seven foot tall sac of jello, allowing him to squash and stretch to more easily dodge attacks or tank them without feeling much pain. He can combine this with his ability to such up sound waves to render projectiles, such as bullets, basically harmless to him.
*Prehensile tongue: Hush can quickly launch his tongue out of his mouth to grab things typically too heavy for he himself to lift. He can also use it as a grappling hook to swing himself around.

Weakness set:
*Damage limits: While Hush is basically immune to projectile attacks, his body has very little defense against bladed weapons, like daggers or swords. He also has a finite limit to how many impacts his body can take before starting to feel pain.
*Vulnerable helmet: Hush's helmet is his only means of speaking, as his race lack vocal cords. If his helmet receives too many strong hits, Hush will be at a communication disadvantage. The helmet also acts as his respirator, so losing it will cause him to suffocate in an Earthlike atmosphere within a matter of minutes unless Ben times out or switches to another form.
*Bodily limitations: Hush's bulbous body and gelatinous innards make him pretty slow to react and a tad bottom heavy. A fast enough opponent can take advantage of this and knock him over. Hush is also not particularly strong and evolved to be more defensive, forcing him to find more indirect routes to fight back.

Fun facts:
*Hush's design was based on a 2009 sketch of a random alien loosely modeled after a Sonorosian. To make him distinct as a species, Hush evolved into a creature that serves as Echo Echo's polar opposite in every way.
*Originally, Hush was going to have very earthy colored skin before his silicate greyish blue colors were chosen. He was also going to have a compound eye similar to some Earthly insects.
*The helmet Hush wears is modeled after old scuba divers' helmets and Toepick's own containment helmet.
*Whenever Hush speaks, a bit of static can be heard alongside some digital crackle.
*The way Hush's species' translators work is by detecting brainwaves relating to specific repeating symbols and forming sentences based on how those symbols are organized. Hush is a unique case, as due to Ben's brainwaves already being structured into sounds and sentences, the helmets simply makes Ben's thoughts audible in a manner similar to Brainstorm's projected thoughts. In a sense, Hush's helmet simply outputs whatever Ben is thinking.
*Hush is the second transformation of Playlist 5, dubbed the Sensory Playlist due to each alien relating to a specific human sense. In Hush's case, it's sound.
