List of Sector General species

This is a list of fictional alien species from the science fiction series Sector General, in alphabetical order. The species' name is followed where known by its four-letter physiological classification.

It is notable that some of these species are sentient life forms, while others may not be.

In Final Diagnosis, in which Telfi are very significant to the outcome of the plot, they are described as lizard-like in appearance, and about four-feet in length. Two members of other species, wearing protective garments, are safely able to touch them in this book.

B

  • Blind Ones (CPSD): A burrowing species of unknown origin which has nevertheless achieved spaceflight.

C

  • Chalder (AUGL): Large water-breathing sentient fish-like creatures from the planet Chalderescol. They are approximately 10m long with large jaws, multiple rows of teeth, armor-plating and a ring of manipulatory tentacles around the middle. Despite their fearsome appearance, they are peaceful and polite.
  • Cinrusskin (GLNO): A sentient insectile species from the planet Cinruss. They have six sucker-tipped legs and two wide iridiscent & near-transparent wings. They have an exoskeleton with three segments and two large eyes. They're fragile, with cowardice being a prime survival characteristic. They have a lack of stamina, and must rest frequently, sleeping deeply, with only a physical stimulus or close presence of danger able to wake them. They do have both projective & receptive empathic abilities though.
  • Crepellian (AMSL): Water breathing octopoids. They keep non-sentient AACL hexapoids as pets.
  • Cromsag (DCSL)

D

  • Drambon Healer (SRJH): Jellyfish-like creature which treats the fauna symbiotic to the strata beings on Drambo.
  • Drambon Roller (CLHG): Toroidal aquatic species from the planet Drambo. Their circulation is dependent on constant rolling motion.
  • Duwatti (EGCL): Large snail-like creature with empathic ability.
  • Dwerlan (DBPK): Intelligent caterpillar-like creatures, with some similarity to Kelgian DBLFs.

E

  • Etlan (DBDG): Very close in physiology to the Earth-human DBDGs.
  • Eurils (MSVK): Fragile, birdlike low gravity beings, usually sharing environmental space with the LSVOs.

F

  • Fotawnan (TOBS): An amoebic, shape-shifting intelligent creature.

G

  • Gogleskan (FOKT): Intelligent but seriously dangerous when its instinctive group defence reaction is triggered.
  • Groalterri (BLSU): A species from Groalter.

H

  • Hudlar (FROB): Heavily armored high-gravity dwellers possessing massive physical strength and durability. They do not eat; rather spraying areas of their armor with a food compound.
  • Human (DBDG): Earth humans.

I

  • Ian (DBLF, GKNM): Large ring-shaped inhabitants of the planet Ia, which metamorphose at adulthood, hence the dual classification.
  • Illensan (PVSJ): Chlorine-breathing, vegetable-like beings. Despite appearance repugnant to most non-PVSJs, they are very vain.

K

  • Kelgian (DBLF): Large furry caterpillars. Brusque to the point of rudeness. See main article for details.

M

  • Melfan (ELNT): Large arthropods with a crab-like exoskeleton.

N

  • Nallajim (LSVO): Fragile, low-gravity birdlike creatures.
  • Nidian (DBDG): Small furry beings resembling teddy bears. Very similar to Orligian DBDGs.

O

  • Orligian (DBDG): Small furry beings resembling teddy bears. Very similar to Nidian DBDGs.

Q

  • QLCL: Non-humanoid species of unspecified origin, allied to the Galactic Federation, who breathe a mix of gases toxic to humanoids and consider harsh blue light "restful." Their classification, QLCL, is also given as "QCQL."

R

  • Rhum (DTRC)

S

  • Sommaradvan (DCNF): A pre-spaceflight species, upright with two sets of four arms at the neck and midsection.

T

  • Tarlan (BRLH)
  • Telfi (VTXM): Small beetle-like creature with a group mind. They feed on radiation and live in the hospital's main reactor.
  • Threcaldan (TLTU): High-temperature life form which requires an atmosphere of superheated steam.
  • Tralthan (FGLI): Large six-legged elephantine creatures. Highly intelligent.
  • Tralthan symbiont (OTSB): Small creature with very fine manipulators. Symbiotic with Tralthan FGLIs, despite the "O" prefix which indicates that it is a chlorine-breather.

V

  • Vothan (SNLU): Cryogenic, crystalline, methane-based intelligent life form described as a "sentient snowflake."

W

  • Wemar (DHCG): Large kangaroo-like creature.
