Description

(Best viewed in editor. I'm not very happy with this one, but I think its cute. XD)

Blipblip are a bio-mechanical species of gigantic alien creatures who roam the starways. They glow from within with an eerie green phosphorescence which they often use to communicate to each other, because their twin probosci are considered primitive and are limited to a few simple series of blips and beeps, hence the name of this strange being.

Schools of Blipblip are known to wander aimlessly, until they encounter sentient life, most notably sentient life travelling in spaceships. They then proceed to attempt to swarm and destroy the ship(s), before continuing on their way. Scientists hypothesize that the Blipblip misreads light reflecting off spaceships (and light produced by them) as hostile signals and are driven insane by the confusing photo-communicative signs, hence explaining their violent behaviour. This theory is further supported by Blipblip seen 'swimming' peacefully around spaceships without any reflective surfaces or lighting on the exterior.

Moral of the story: Being dull isn't always bad. ;)
