Skills/abilities: Maltok have a range of abilities as they are created from Inter-dimensional travel, though, energy absorption Eye-beam, disruption of communication signals, such as radio waves and general destructiveness seem to round out their top three

Brief personal history: The Maltok are squid like sentient creatures with a hive mind that exist in most dark matter. For billions and billions of years, they have watch their numbers dwindle as the onset of "bacteria" (living beings composed of positive matter) created by the Big Bang continue to tear at the edges of the "known" universes. The Maltok's representative pseudopod on the Council of Deities (a pan dimensional governing body administering events on a scale far beyond human imagining), for eons railed against the Council's general policy of allowing any brand of life to become sentient make its way into their ranks. The Maltok seceded from the Council and retreated to the obscurity of the deep spaces of dark matter, until a particularly nasty strand of "bacteria" called "humanity" discovers string theory. They will not remain silent for much longer.
