Isolus
The Isolus are empathic beings of intense emotion; when their spores are birthed from their mother, they can survive simply on the love produced by their siblings. Isolus will develop for thousands of years until they reach their adult stage. These young Isolus will travel in groups of 4 billion, using their ionic projections to create fantasy worlds to play in.
The ionic power of an Isolus to create these virtual worlds can bring inanimate objects like drawings to life, as well as transform living things into drawings as well. Even when reduced to inanimate forms, those transformed appear to be capable of limited movement and can, to an extent, communicate with the outside world.
During the year 2012, one Isolus was separated from its siblings and crashed on Earth.
