Species 8473

A xenophobic species, and distant relatives to the Iconians, Species 8473 was identified at the exact nanosecond as Species 8472, but 8472 got the privilege of being named "8472". These aliens are native to the DeVries system in the Gamma Quadrant genetically, but thousands of years ago they moved to a structure known as "the Cube". The Cube is an unknown anomaly, and suspected artificial asteroid. The Cube is a massive structure containing the souls of billions. Due to unknown technology aboard the Cube, Species 8473 uses stone on their ships. As in, their ships are literally asteroids with unknown power sources. Using furniture and food that grows off of the walls, Species 8473 was perfectly snug in their new home until.. Fiona Industries used a Earthbreaker-type drill on the Cube. Millions of lives were lost to fill Fiona Industries' money count, but these aliens did anything but not retaliate. Using these stone ships, spheres, dodecahedrons, rectangles, and mini-cubes are seen in 8473 space frequently, and any trespasser is viewed as a "Fiona Industries associate". Vessels are also seen preying on any corporate vessels. These vessels possess amazing technology and are capable of ripping a Miranda-class ship apart within seconds.

Heritage
Species 8473 lived in an asteroid containing a mysterious alien vault, they viewed the vault as their "Prophecy center". After industrial mistakes, Species 8473 was forced to move, so using primitive vessels they made it to the Cube after thousands of years. They believe that a female known as "The Keeper" remained behind to serve as caretaker for the vault.

Characteristics
These aliens are either tall or short, they have brown skin with scales and are genetically similar to Remans. Their key Iconian-related characteristic is their tall craniums. This species has no hair, gigantic black eyes, usually Human or Romulan names, and some Iconian names which can only be translated by themselves and a few other unknown species.

Abilities
The most incredible ability of this species is their ability to survive in almost any atmosphere. They also have amazing body temperature regulators in their scales, and only sweat at extreme temperatures. This also alleviates the need for EVA suits. They have two unique abilities, one; The ability to turn their feet into blue or purple flames which allow them to fly. Two; This takes a lot of practice, but some can turn into "Iconian-mode". Basically, they turn into purple flames and have impressive combat abilities. They can also grow magic wings and fly into the Dimension of Unicorns

Health
Even though they don't have lungs, their preferred atmosphere is a hydrogen atmosphere.

Technology
8473 uses ancient technology found on the Cube. Cutting beams are a preferred assault weapon, and graviton charges are used for sieges. All vessels are.. well.. asteroids. The technology they use in their ship cores allows the asteroid to grow working consoles connected to systems, and like the Cube, furniture.
