Tralthan

The Tralthans were a sentient species from the planet Traltha. They belonged to the physiological classification FGLI.

They had the ability to enter into a symbiotic relationship with a species classified as OTSB, small beings with ultra-sensitive tentacles. These "Tralthan combinations" were the best surgeons the known Galaxy. ("Sector General")

Physiology
Tralthans were massive entities with an osseous dome housing the brain, six elephantine feet connected to their triple shoulders, and four extensible eyes on an immobile head.

They frequently go to sleep standing up, as they have great difficulty getting up again if they fall onto the side. They could not be rolled onto their backs under normal gravity conditions since this caused organic displacement which led to respiratory difficulties.

Tralthans were vegetarians, abhoring meat. ("Sector General")
