Rigellian Chelons

NotesImagesDatapoints
TimelinePeople
Universe : Prime Timeline
Species Name : Rigellian Chelons [1]
Quadrant : Alpha

There are two breeds of Rigellians; one is descended from saber-toothed turtles. [2] Phlox stated that Rigellians have four or five genders. [3]

When attacked, Rigelian Chelons have an autonomic defense mechanism which secretes a deadly toxin from their skin. It is thus extremely dangerous to engage in close combat with them. [4]
