Editing Lensman (Nerik's WIR) (section)

=== Species ===


Arisians — Enigmatic beings resembling brains with vestigial bodies. Extremely powerful telepaths. Providers of the LENS.

Bronsecan — native of Bronseca

Chickladorian — 'Pink all over. Bushy hair, triangular eyes, teeth, skin; all that same peculiar colour. Not the flush of red blood showing through translucent skin, but opaque pigment; the brick-reddish pink so characteristic of the near-humanity of that planet'. Chickladorian minds work on a frequency unlike that of any other race in the galaxy.

Eddorian — FNORD

Eich —  "A many-tentacled creature indescribable to man. It was not like an octopus. Though spiny, it did not resemble at all closely a sea-cucumber. Nor, although it was scaly and toothy and wingy, was it, save in the vaguest possible way, similar to a lizard, a sea-serpent, or a vulture."

Kalonian — Blue-skinned humanoids, possible orgininating in Lundmark's Nebula.

Klovians — Very human-like inhabitants of Klovia.

Lyranians — A to 10 places humanoid race exhibiting extreme sexual dimorphism. Exhibit powerful mental abilities.

Onlonians — Partially hyperdimansional cold-loving species.

Ordovik — possess the sense of perception, no other details known.

Posenian — "As tall as a tall human, and heavier. Somewhat human in shape, but not in detail. Four arms instead of two, each arm had two opposed hands, and each hand had two thumbs, one situated about where a little finger would be expected. No eyes, not even vestigial ones. Two broad, flat noses and two toothful mouths; one of each in what would ordinarily be called the front of his round, shining, hairless head; the other in the back. Upon the sides of the head were large, volute, highly dirigible ears. And, like most races having the faculty of perception instead of that of sight, their heads are relatively immobile, their neck being short, massive, and tremendously strong. They can breath Tellurian atmosphere without problems, but not Radelix's."

Rigellian — Native of Rigel IV, cylindrical beings with four legs, four branching tentacles, and four mouths. Most well-known users of the sense of perception

Trocanthers — 'cold-blooded, quasi-reptilian beings who abhor light of all kinds and who breathe a gaseous mixture not only paralyzingly cold but also chemically fatal to man'.

Thrallians — AAAAAA Human-like natives of Thrale.

Velantians — 'Dragon-snakes', winged, with multiple arms, legs and eyes. Powerful telepaths.
