MOMIDIUMS DIDN'T WALK so much as they oozed. As a race they were relatively short. Humanoid in general appearance, but bearing more than a passing resemblance to slugs in the general shape and contour of their bodies. They had fairly pale complexions, with skin so light that once could see the thin lattice-work of their veins without too much difficulty. Their arms were deceptively strong since they looked so thin that one would have thought them almost useless. Their legs, however, were virtually nonexistent: ves-tigial stubs at most, left far behind by evolution. Instead they propelled themselves along by the thick lower halves of their bodies, which undulated along the ground. Their faces were generally round, their eyes uniformly orange. Their noses were horizontal 76 Star Trek New Frontier slits, and their mouths were so narrow that they hardly seemed to move when the Momidiums spoke. It had taken Morgan Primus quite some time to get used to them. She had not counted, however, on having quite so much time.
