Galvanic Mechamorph (Classic)

Galvanic Mechamorphs are an alien species accidentally created by the Galvans from Galvan Prime's moon, Galvan B.

Appearance
Galvanic Mechamorphs are black with white/green/blue robot-like lines on them. They have one central "eye" on their head, which sometimes glows when speaking.

Powers and Abilities
Galvanic Mechamorphs can shoot a powerful laser from their eye. They can also merge with technology, when young, they only can use it as a body, when they get older, they "upgrade" it to super-advanced technology. Galvanic Mechamorphs are "pre-programmed" with the blueprints of mechanical devices from across the universe.

Galvanic Mechamorphs can also shapeshift into technology they have once touched on their own.

While Galvanic Mechamorphs are masters of the mechanical, their merging powers are useless on full organic creatures with only few exceptions with those integrated with technology.

Being highly sensitive, finely tuned beings, electromagnetic pulses, acid or any other sort of corrosive can upset their delicate chemistry and wreak havoc on a Galvanic Mechamorph's systems.

History
The Galvanic Mechamorphs were brought to life completely by accident. Galvan B was originally an uninhabited moon orbiting Galvan Prime. Galvan scientists were mining the resource-rich world for its raw materials, but they accidently misused an experimental self-replicating nanotechnology, which bonded with Galvan B's minerals and imbued the fertile ground with sentient consciousness.

It didn’t take long before Galvanic Mechamorphs joined the galaxy community and met their creators. Galvans were surprised that their accident on Galvan B had resulted in a new species.
