Description
The Formless

They are called the Formless… An accurate description if ever there was one. The formless a native sentient race of beings made of pure dark energy. They are from another dimension, another reality. They possess no physical form that would make any sense to humanoids. Their very presence can cause instability in space time if they remain in their natural state. Because their true form cannot exist in this universe, they mush choose a temporary form to take. –One that conserves their energy and allows them to remain in this reality. The form they assume is what anchors them to this universe. However- just because they can live in this dimension doesn’t mean it is at all suitable for them. Realistically they can never thrive here. At least not with things as they are…

Formless often take the form of a cloaked humanoid. One permanently bathed in darkness. And though the outside may look solid, they are not but smoke and shadows. Still- they manage to be solid enough to hold things and interact with their environment. In fact a Formless can take many different forms at once and be a mix of many different interstellar races. But they never seem to stick to just one form at a time. They are always a blend of… Something else…

Because of their ways they tend to live only in dark damp areas and seldom venture into the light. Even if they did step into the light of the sun, there would be nothing to see. In fact it is only in the darkest of depths that anything even close to resembling a face can be seen. The rest is drenched in the shadows they use for clothing. The Formless are immune to conventional weapons. It usually takes energy weapons to harm them. However every little bit they have to remake of themselves costs them their energy. If the lose too much- they can lose the ability to hold their form and fall back into their own dimension again. –Usually this means death. Depending on where they land, it may mean the equivalent of being teleported into a vast sea or into a solid wall. It’s all very relative.

Thankfully the formless (powerful as they are) do tend to be non-combative. They prefer disappearing into nothing over fighting. However… If they are provoked into combat, killing something that can become anything can be a real pain in the ass. –More so if you can’t hit it with most solid weapons.

The Formless have lived on many worlds across many galaxies. They even bore silent witness to the birth of the human race on ancient earth. There the Humans often used to tell stories of the Formless. The humans called the Formless by many names. However- they usually referred to them as ghosts or spirits. But like the Demon race on earth- the Humans eventually pushed the Formless to extinction. Later- Humans scholars would discount the Formless and the Demons as little more than fairytales and religious nonsense.

Indeed the ancient Humans told many stories- often of past encounters with Demons Angles and Ghosts such as the Formless. These labels and religious texts were the Human’s ways of understanding the horrible conflict that took place on earth while mankind was still in it’s infancy. Many horrible beasts and so called magical powers were very real creatures and highly advanced technology. Many of the human’s gods and evil spirits were the incarnation of something the young human race should never have been exposed to. Many say it changed the humans. For many humans died at the hands of said Demons and evil spirits. Eventually – the humans allied with what they believed to be the soldiers of god whom they called “angels” and fought the Demons and the Formless off along with many horrible creatures. Mankind finally at peace- their heavenly allies departed their world of earth. The war of the gods became little more than stories told to frighten children.

But after the events of New Genesis, the new galaxy offered many new experiences to the Humans of earth… And many old and forgotten ones as well. Good thing the Formless here either didn’t know or didn’t care about what had happened on Earth. Truth be told- the Formless have bigger fish to fry. They are a pilgrim race from a dark world. One that will eventually make itself known in a big way to the entirety of the universe. For it is the big brothers of the Formless that the Formless fear. The Formless are indeed powerful- but they are still just refugees from a far greater evil. Ones that long ago pushed them and the Demons out of their own planes of existence. But there is hope… Somewhere- out there- those whom mankind called “Angels” are watching over the balance of all life. And when they are needed once more- they will come. Just as before. They will come…

But until then the Formless keep their metaphysical ears to the pulse of the universe. A person would be wise to listen to what they have to say. After all they would know- the past the present and the future- they’d know alright. Too bad something’s cannot be avoided. But that is another story. In the meantime many formless can be found skulking around in dark alleys, and mooching off of people in front of discount stores where they ask for money in exchange for dubious goods. The word “misguided” comes to mind when I think of them…

Oh! By the way… This is NOT Kresk! Although Kresk IS a Formless…
