Transylians are an extraterrestrial species of Frankenstein's Monster-like humanoids from the planet Anur Transyl.[Bandai 1]
Appearance[]
Transylians are a human-like species which resemble Frankenstein's monster. They are made of several different body parts sewn together, as well as various electrical generating equipment and life support technology. Most Transylians have two tower-shaped conductor coil-like generators on their back, though these are not machines. Rather, these generators are metallic-organic growths.[pop-up 1][1]
Male Transylians have a muscular body and larger generators, whereas female Transylians have a curvy body and smaller generators on their backs, compared to the male's.
Young Transylians like Viktoria don't have giant conductors on their backs.
History[]
Long ago, Anur Transyl used to be the home of two different races: the Transylians and the Vladats. The Transylians were used by the Vladats as their slave labor and main source of food,[2][3] until the other Anur aliens rebelled against the Vladats,[DJW 1] with the Transylians in particular using the energy of captured Pyronite[pop-up 2][4] to incinerate and kill them.[DJW 2]
Though they hunted all Vladats on Anur Transyl into utter extinction and became the dominant species on Anur Transyl, Transylians were eventually enslaved by the Ectonurites.
At some point, Transylians learned how to harness the lightning from Anur Transyl's giant storms with their own electric powers.[pop-up 3][1]
Behavior[]
Depending on the individual, Transylians have a myriad of personalities. However, they commonly share a hatred of Vladats, due to being enslaved by them and used ultimately as food in the past.[2][3]
Transylians are not too friendly towards other-worlders outside the Anur System and view them as monsters.[5]
Transylians view anything hideously ugly as attractive.[6][7]
Transylians can extend their conductor coils as a sign of agitation.[1]
Diet[]
Numerous stalls seen in The Vampire Strikes Back imply that Transylians feed on heavily rotten fruits and vegetables.
Technology[]
Transylian scientists like Dr. Viktor were shown to build devices capable of instant teleportation across the planet, such as the Purple Lightning by using teleportation energy from the Anur System.[pop-up 4][8] He was also able to modify already existing Level 2 technology to shield the planet from solar radiation.
Powers and Abilities[]
Thanks to their bio-metallic conductor coils on their body, Transylians can produce and manipulate bio-electric discharges as powerful as bolts of lightning[Bandai 2] and capable of punching holes in a spaceship.[4] This electricity can be used to enhance their blows to increase the damage output,[9] electrocute opponents through physical contact, attach to metallic surfaces,[1] power-up machinery or overload specific parts of the technology,[9][10] create waves that travel along the flat surfaces,[11] as well as focus it into concentrated beams of energy.[12]
Larger Transylians are shown to have immense level of physical strength, being powerful enough to punch through a brick wall,[Bandai 2] sever a Techadon Robot's arm,[13] carry an Appoplexian over their shoulders,[14] tear apart steel,[1] as well as lift a tank over their head.[15] Their strength also extends to their legs, allowing them to jump between the roofs of Undertown buildings.[13]
Larger Transylians possess immense durability, being able to withstand plasma beams of Galvanic Mechamorphs and Ectonurites at full power,[1] walk straight through bullets and tank shells,[15] and survive being blasted afar by energy beams from Phil Billings.[9] They are also highly resistant to extremely high temperatures, as shown when Dr. Viktor was ensnared in of molten steel.[15] Transylians can regenerate parts and heal from even serious injuries that are almost fatal.[Bandai 2]
Transylians are quite fast, as demonstrated when Lightning Volt was able to keep up with Rath.[14]
Transylians can survive in the vacuum of space.[1] Transylians can also see in the dark.[DJW 3]
Transylians are resistant to strong winds, as shown when Frakenstrike held onto part of a space station when Viktor opened up a portal in space.[1]
Transylians can emit magnetism from their hands or their feet, allowing them to attach to metal structures.[1]
Transylians possess technokinesis and can merge with technology, being able to generate electricity through their coils to power machinery, as demonstrated when Viktor controlled some cables with his mind and plugged them into himself.[4][1]
Non-Canon Powers and Abilities[]
Protector of Earth[]
Transylians can teleport short distances and create portals.
Weaknesses[]
Most Transylians are unable to fit through small or tight spaces due to their large size and coils.[12][11]
The two generators on a Transylian's shoulders are the source of their electricity, which means opponents like Phil can absorb their electricity through them.[9]
Transylians cannot conduct or absorb electricity from external sources.[DJW 4] This was shown when Ben knocked Dr. Viktor into exposed circuitry; Frankenstrike blasted Dr. Viktor with electricity;[1] and when Rook and Scout used tasers to electrocute Viktor.[5]
Transylians can be controlled and hypnotized by Vladats via their Corrupturas, as demonstrated by Viktor and many other Transylian residents of Anur Transyl.[3] Transylians are also vulnerable to being possessed by an Ectonurite, as demonstrated with Viktor.[1]
Transylians can be frozen in ice and dried molten steel, as demonstrated by Viktor.[15]
Transylians can be scared by Toepick's species.[DJW 5]

Etymology[]
The name "Transylian" is a play on "Transylvania".
Trivia[]
- Similar to how humans have organ donors, Transylians can have their limbs replaced with those from another member of their species, but is much easier with no tissue rejection.[DJW 7]
- The civilians on Anur Transyl were designed by Thomas N. Perkins IV.
- Originally, Transylians were the second smartest species in the universe.[pop-up 6][4] This was retconned in Omniverse.[MW 1][DJW 8][CM 1][BTP 1]
- Thomas believes that Transylians are capable of absorbing electricity.[TNP 1] He also believes that the generators on Transylians' backs are the product of some sort of nanite symbiosis.[TNP 2]
