[b]Scientific Name:[/b] Spatiobacillea Loquebatur Colloniam

[b]Threat Level:[/b] 0 (higher if given guns)

[b]Height:[/b] 2 µm

[b]Length:[/b] 2 µm

[b]Weight:[/b] 5.8 x 10^−10 g

[b]Description:[/b]
A species of microorganisms that display higher-level sentience in colonies. Much like other hive-mind species these creatures form a collective mind through a process of shared experience, with each individual member functioning as a neuron in a larger brain through constant chemical interaction between adjacent cells. While even small colonies can develop a thought process large colonies can become astoundingly intelligent, with the largest colonies possessing computing power comparable to supercomputers. Much like in Slime Molds these cells can combine into a single semi-permanent 'organism' that can disassemble at will, the difference being that the complexity and intelligence of the Loquebatur is far greater. When combined cells set aside their usual function to form makeshift locomotion, allowing the colony as a whole to propagate, and can even be used to break down larger multi-celled organisms. Although these makeshift organs are generally less efficient than the more specialised multi-cellular organisms the ability to break down and recreate itself gives these creatures an immense advantage, turning them into the most prominent species on their homeworld.

Initial communication between the Loquebatur (Loqi for short) and humans was difficult due to the immense difference between the two species. Originally they were classified as a foreign contaminant, then as a nonsentient species of mobile fungus, and then as a planetary environmental hazard. Because large multi-cellular life is completely alien to the Loqi, and attempting to communicate with a human's cells doesn't work, it took quite a while for the two species to even recognize one another as sentient. However, the Loqi appear to wish peace with humanity, and are highly interested in humanity's technology. Despite the species' vast intelligence as a collective it failed to go through the technological advancements humanity did. This is believed to be because of a thought process based on intercellular interaction, rather than interaction on a larger scale.

[hider= Bob]

[b]Name:[/b] Bob

[b]Species:[/b] Loqi Colony

[b]Age:[/b] impossible to determine, but it has been 6 years since he separated from the main Loqi colony.

[b]Gender:[/b] 31

[b]Height:[/b] 2m

[b]Weight:[/b] 120 kg

[b]Personality:[/b]
Bob is fascinated by humans, and attempts to learn as much as he can about them. His alien mind often has trouble comprehending concepts that make complete sense for a human, although his extended exposure has made him far more human than the greater Loqi hive mind. He dreams of absorbing as much of human culture and the multi-cellular experience as possible before returning to the hive mind with this information, once more melting away into the larger Loqi awareness. He acts in a cheery and optimistic manner under all circumstances, which can be both charming and disconcerting. Due to his lack of individuality he feels no real sense of self-preservation, beyond his recognition of the importance of the information he carries. This also applies to others, as to Loqi the value of an individual's life is his value to society as a whole, or potentially whatever 'faction' they're a part of. Concepts such as selfishness are completely alien to him, and he simply cannot understand them.

[b]History:[/b]
Created by the Loqi hive mind as an ambassador to the human species, Bob was named for the scientists who witnessed the event. He spent the first five years of his life interacting with scientists, who designed machines that transformed the chemical communication of the Loqi cells into vocal communication. As Bob is a smaller colony his intelligence is more similar to that of a human, which was necessary in order to even begin comprehending humans. While not the first 'ambassador' and certainly not the last Bob was the most successful, as the Loqi had managed to trade with the humans for a technologically advanced suit which would allow Bob to interact with other humans as if he himself were also a human. For the entirety of his existence as a separate colony Bob has been working on integrating himself into human society and understanding humans better. Now he functions as an alien hunter in an attempt to understand human individuality, self-preservation, and to expose themselves to a larger variety of alien species.

[b]Weapons/Supplies:[/b]
Bob himself is nestled into a suit of 'power armour' which surrounds the colony itself. This power armour contains the necessary machinery to allow the Loqi colony to communicate vocally, and sends constant sensory data to the Loqi colony. This allows Bob to interact with the world in a fashion similar to how humans do it, which he finds profoundly strange. This suit is stronger than a human body, as well as being significantly more durable, although it is not faster. And Bob is far from agile, having trouble even conceptualising 3d movement on a macro scale. The suit is equipped with extendable blades on it's forearms and scanning equipment, granting it sensory abilities beyond those of a normal human. In the hands of a more capable 'pilot' it would be a far more dangerous weapon, but even as Bob's 'body' it is quite dangerous.

[b]Misc:[/b] decided to make an astoundingly weird character.
