Description (It's been a while since I last submitted anything... Maybe I'll get back into the habit.)

Some interesting facts about lingons:
* They come from a planet which is imaginitively called Lingonite in the Draco Star System.
* All the other sentient races in the Draco System (that is: Crystaloids, Triobots, Cyber Orteks, Sythoids (though they're only 'partly-sentient'), and so on...) are their enemies for some reason or another. Or, sometimes, no reason.
* They basically rule the Draco System, having dominance over Lingonite, the twin worlds of Anthope, and the Sythoid world of Ngregka. Amongst others. The Lingon language, which is called, uh, Lingon, is the 'standard' form of communication, like English is on Earth.
* Their means of communication and language aren't sound-based like ours. They communicate with coloured lights in their eyes and their luminous 'eyebrow' things, and, to some extent, the nodes on the end of their tendrils. Sequences of coloured flashes form 'words', like sequences of sounds form our words. They are extremely sensitive to colours, and can tell the difference between #4500ff and #4400ff (for those of you who know hexadecimal colours...).
They also have a written language very much like ours, though, but glyphs or combinations of glyphs represent colours rather than sounds.
* There are hundreds of varieties of lingon, almost as diverse as Earth's beetles... The ones with this red and green pattern are called Ultranites. Other examples are Aquanites, Archanites, Vulnerites, Magnites, Psinites, Omeganites, and so on. Though they aren't really examples because I just listed their names without giving any sort of indication as to what they look like. Oh well.
* They're highly advanced - moreso than humans - but most of their technology is based on arcane magic rather than electronics and so on.
* Yet they perpetually wear a 'backpack' thing, which is implanted at birth, and which keeps them alive for reasons I can't be bothered explaining.
* They don't have a mouth.
* Nor do they have any number of phalli...
* They don't have genders, either. They reproduce by some form of reincarnation.
* They worship Yalort (ALL HAIL HIM!)
* They were Yalort's first sentient creations.
* Most people (ie everyone but me) probably don't like or understand them because they're too weird.
* In fact, you probably don't know what a Lingon is.
* Lingons will feature in the Flash game I'll be releasing very soon, amongst other Flash games I'll release sometime in the future.

Now, that's more than you probably needed or wanted to know.

Heh, I came up with the idea for my lingons back when I was but a wee li'l sprog, and I thought the word didn't mean anything... I found out it was some kind of berry when I did a Google image search for the word 'lingon' a while ago... It amused me to know that it is a word for a thing after all!
But anyway, thankyou!
