Description: The Vorlons are members of an ancient group of races called the First Ones.
Biology: The Vorlons are one of the very few known silicon-based lifeforms in the galaxy. They are powerfully telepathic and have incredible physical strength. Next to nothing is known about a Vorlon's physical makeup with surety. They are bioluminescent and can move quickly. Their anatomy allows them to fly; probably through the use of psychokinesis. In addition to telepathic powers,Vorlons are highly adept in the use of Telekinesis and some forms of psychometry. Time does not mean to the Vorlons what it means to most of the galaxy's species. They perceive reality, time, and space differently than most. Vorlons are very long lived, possibly immortal. Nutrient circulation is carried out by "blue cells."
Society: Being one of the few remaining First Ones, they are powerful and self-righteous. Peculiarly, they are also insecure about that power. The death of one of their number is taken hard by the whole race. Vorlon territory is known as the Vorlon Empire. Nothing is known if there is a Vorlon Emperor, but there is a High Command. The Vorlon Empire maintains a strict immigration and tourism policy. Their starships are living creatures. The fighters are the most primitive ships with rudimentary evolution abilities. Their war cruisers carry a full crew of Vorlons.
History: The Vorlons are members of an ancient group of races called the First Ones, of which they are the youngest. After the defeat of the Shadows in the last Great War circa 7,740 B.C.E., most of the First Ones left. The Vorlons were among the few to stay behind.
