Angels and Minnows

Hello and Welcome Back,

Time to see more alien creatures from the Wild Galaxy. 

Originally found around worlds close to black holes the Angels and Minnows are strange creatures. Very little is known about them except that the Minnow is the young version and grows into the more fearsome Angel. It is not understood how the Minnow grows into a Angel.

Generally the Angels are not aggressive to humans and there are stories of them aiding injured or stranded spacers. It is how they got the name Angels. The Angels seem to be able to tell at a distance about humans intentions towards them and will vanish or attack if they feel in danger.

These creatures have a PSI effect on any humans encountering them. The effect can either be elation or terror and the creatures seem to be able to decide which way they can influence the human they target. Humans they encounter can also be affected by dreams or nightmares for decades after. Some researchers claim that the Angel or Minnow are remotely influencing these dreams, even from across the galaxy. Some of the effected claim there are hidden messages in the dreams. Are the Angels trying to communicate with humanity?

These mysterious creatures seem to be unaffected by the void of space and travel across the galaxy in drifting space hulks. They often come as a shock to salvage teams (known as Vultures) when they run into Angels aboard a hulk. Many recall seeing the at the initial contact but wake to find them gone, after blacking out.

It is thought that the Angels are born from the chaos of a black hole, or have travelled here from another dimension somehow via the black hole or it's energies. Of course no one really knows. No Angels or Minnows have ever been captured alive and their bodies quickly fade into nothing upon death. Along with the other mysterious incidents around contact with Angels has given rise to supernatural tales about these creatures.

The figures are Angels and Minnows by Malestroms Edge. I like the sinister alien look they have.

Thanks for looking and Take Care.
