Ectonurite

Ectonurites are a ghost-like species from Anur Phaetos in the Anur System. Their Ecto-Lord is Zs'Skayr.

Appearance
Ectonurites may look a classical ghost with a track for the eye to travel upon, but they are not. Their basic form may not look frightening, but it is actually a second layer of skin which Ectonurites can grow to protect them from sunlight.

Without their protective layer of skin, the Ectonurites look like a misshapen horror. They possess an exposed upside-down skull for a head, only one eye, dark blue skin, exposed bones on certain parts of their bodies, black claws, a big gaping hole in their chest with black and white striped tentacles hanging out, and speak with an eerie, creepy voice.

Powers and Abilities
Ectonurites have density altering protoplasm helping them to phase through matter and make themselves invisible.

Ectonurites can inhabit other bodies and possess them.

Ectonurites without their protective skin possess powerful telekinetic abilities.

In true, absolute darkness, Ectonurites can use their abilities to their full potential.

An Ectonurite's consciousness seems to be linked to every single strand of his / her DNA.

Zs'Skayr has been shown to be able to transform Chimera Sui Generis into Ectonurite minions, which may also serve as their means of reproduction.

Zs'Skayr stated that he could absorb the powers of other living things having already absorbed Ben and planned to absorb Vilgax's powers as well.

Lacking individuality, Ectonurites seem to be part of a dark mass of consciousness that literally composes the fabric of their domain. Ectonurites are part of a hive mind. This mind is embedded in the very fabric of their being, a miraculous genetic memory that allows them to remember absolutely everything from the day they were born; even a single strand of its DNA can replicate it in its entirety.

Weaknesses
Light, especially sunlight, renders Ectonurites powerless and causes severe physical damage, destroying their bodies. Even a small amount of light is enough to weaken their abilities. Ectonurites with their first skin don't have this weakness.

A certain chemical can solidify an Ectonurite's protoplasm, thus negating their intangibility and invisibility.

Ectonurites can be harmed by lasers and fire.

 * In Vilgax Attacks, Zs'Skayr implies that Ectonurites are actually undead.
 * According to Derrick J Wyatt, Ectonurites are not living dead in the Earth sense, their "lives" are just very different from most sentient life forms.
