Mithri
Species : Mithri. Role : n/a.
Date of birth : unknown.
The Mithri are a species of purple jelly-like creatures. They are thought to be primitive and use no technology, yet they are able to travel through space. The creatures are capable of feeding on nearly everything, and seem to prefer Xyloxi material above all other matter. As they eat, they essentially convert their food into the material they are made of with almost no waste, growing in size. Every time they add mass to themselves they may grow smarter, more perceptive, if the food gets transformed into sensing and processing organs, which appears to be a random process.
