Fulmini are a silicon-based species from the destroyed planet Fulmas.
Appearance[]
Fulmini are made entirely of Omni-Enhanced energy, although what that energy actually is has yet to be explained. Their blue energy bodies are reinforced with gray rock amour that covers their head, chest, shoulders, some of their forearms, and everything from the thighs down. This rock has a green moss-like pattern on it's surface nearest the top of the body.
Fulmini can vary greatly in height, from around twice a young Ben's height to nearly four times his height. Some are even as big as a To'kustar.
Under the influence or revitalization of High Override, Fulmini energy turns lilac, and the Fulmini gain red eyes. Fulmini bodies can also be enhanced by High Override. The most notable example of this is Shock Rock.
History[]
The Fulmini fought amongst themselves over the energy that Fulmas held, until the planet began to fall apart. United, the Fulmini began to wage war against the rest of the universe, using wormholes to travel to nearby planets in order to plunder their energy and use it to restore Fulmas to its former strength.
Vilgax described them as being incredibly destructive and a danger to the Earth itself.[2] However, Ben later determined that this was a lie in order to stop him from using the Omnitrix.[3] Vilgax eventually clarified on the subject once the Fulmini invasion was underway.[4]
The Fulmini went to Petropia to harvest the resources to restore Fulmas, but Petropia's inhabitants forced them to retreat.
With Fulmas destroyed, the Fulmini went to Khoros using their mothership to invade the planet. They left Khoros once they found out it was populated with Tetramand's predators.
Behavior[]
They are a war-bound, conquering race. They aggressively conquer other planets and expand their empire.
Powers and Abilities[]
Fulmini have the ability to release strong, blue electrical charges from any part of their bodies, which they can use to construct various weapons and tools. For example, Shock Rock has demonstrated being able to generate a boomerang (dubbed a "bluemerang")[2] and a shield.[5]
Fulmini are able to absorb external sources of energy, such as a Chimera Sui Generis' optical lasers.[3]
Fulmini can stretch their arms at a certain extent.[6]
Fulmini can power up and enhance machines with the use of their electricity.[7][8]
Fulmini have indestructible stone armor and possess enhanced strength.
Fulmini can use their electrokinesis to telekinetically move objects.
Fulmini can create force fields and energy boxes.
Fulmini can generate wormholes.[9] They can also increase the size of a wormhole by using their energy to expand the particles, as demonstrated by Omni-Naut Shock Rock.[10]
A Fulmini's DNA pod can absorb the excess charge from the Omnitrix and enhance other aliens.[11][9]
While under the control of Fulmini higher-ups such as the High Override, a Fulmini's power would be boosted to the point where they could destroy a planet.[DR 1]
Fulmini higher-ups can drain the energy from their soldiers, leaving only the rock armor behind.[12]
Weaknesses[]
Fulmini can inadvertently give their enemies an energy boost if the machine they are charging up is a trap for their power to siphon through.[7]
Fulmini soldiers are vulnerable to being controlled by a superior member of their species, such as the High Override.[9]
Fulmini are vulnerable to having their energy absorbed.[1]
A Fulmini's constructs can unintentionally shock humans who come in contact with them.[13][14]
A Fulmini's electric attacks are useless against rubber materials.[15][16]
Technology[]
The Fulmini possess ground vehicles and flying machines that appear to be made of the same rock as Fulmas and the Fulmini themselves.
The Fulmini also possess the ability to generate wormholes, which they use to raid nearby star systems.

Etymology[]
Fulmini is derived from Fulmine, the Italian word for "lightning". It may also be derived from the word 'Fulminate' which, in a literary sense, means to explode violently or flash like lightning.
Fulmini may also be a portmanteau of Fulmine and mini, effectively calling them little balls of lightning.
