Telchies are an alien species created by an unknown ancient race. Originally created as a semi-biological lifeform capable of consuming non-organic matter as part of their diet with the mission to consume enormous amounts of garbage produced by their creators. This was until the Telchies revolted against their masters, now left to their own devices they desire every piece of knowledge in the Universe that they can get their hands on. They seem to live peacefully in their own world, or make small towns in other planets. While Telchies can be a friendly group they can have a sinister streak as well.
