'''Gell guards''' (so named by [[UNIT]]) were blob-like creatures created by [[Omega]], trapped in a [[black hole]] domain made of [[anti-matter]]. They had the ability to travel from Omega's [[anti-matter universe]] into that of [[matter]]. An advance guard appeared in the form of a shapeless jelly-like blob. Anything touched by it converted into anti-matter and entered Omega's domain.
