Description Some more Alpha Guard aliens...

The Ongos of planet Konat are a species of man-sized shell-covered creatures who utilize a network of stem-like antennae as sensory apparatus that gives them a range far wider than any human being. Mobility is granted them via a bottom orifice that emits a thick perspiratory liquid which fortunately evaporates in scant seconds. To communicate, they "speak" through a network of blowholes of varying tones akin to a rather peculiar-sounding pipe organ; standard-issue translator devices are needed to comprehend their speech, but they themselves have very little problem understanding colloquial English. For lack of opposable thumbs, the fuzzy patches between their antennae and their blowholes emit energy discharges powerful enough to physically manipulate objects. Their planet was run roughshod by the Primazors on several occasions and countless Ongos slaughtered in the process; for the surviving Ongos, aligning themselves with the Alpha Guard was the only recourse to ensure the survival of their species. They are pacifists by nature and abhor violence, but have dedicated their agricultural prowess to sustaining the Guard, as well as finding means to biologically combat the Primazors' own genetically-engineered horrors.

Then there's the Huuk, exoskeletal denizens of the planet Sahar. What they lack in limbs they more than make up for in their raw telekinetic power, capable of moving more than just a couple little utensils sitting on the table in front of them; capable of rolling themselves into giant armor-plated balls, they can propel themselves at amazing speeds and smashing through fortified military compounds with a force of a small earthquake. They very quickly showed the Primazors the door when the armada made the mistake of attempting to gain a foothold on Sahar, something the Primazors were, of course, totally unable to forgive or forget - the armada promptly firebombed colony after colony. For the normally-planet-bound Huuks, who had never imagined being space travelers before, there was only one feasible assessment of this atrocity: drop the bastards. And though not a species known for harboring any sort of high intellect, they've established quite a blissfully-simple working relationship with the Alpha Guard: where the Guard points, the Huuks hit.
