The last thirty years have given us some pretty cool alien animals.
I think a the Alien from Alien 3 would be a prime choice for a predatory morph. Then you have the flying creatures from Avatar that would make the Hork-Bajir wet themselves.
What Movie and or TV aliens would you morph?
Do any of the alien creatures from the Discovery Channel's Blue Moon tickle your fancy?
-
Humm That would be cool to morph a Na'vi and have a flying creature (why not you in morph? ;))
Or an Andalite :angel: (but infestation is cool too >:D)
-
Or better still. Grow a series of Na'vi Avatars, give each one the morphing power and trap them in the morph of your choice. Then you really could maintain a morph for longer than two hours and when you stop to take a rest, the animal instincts will take over as if nothing happened.
-
@_@ errr... OK ^^'
-
Personally, I have an illness that limits what I can do and am in constant pain so I would choice a na'vi.
Now I would also LOVE to become the Thanathor from Avatar. Bad-ass six legged black cat! :D
-
A lot of the aliens from Farscape are really cool and I'd love to morph them - Nebari, Pilots, Leviathans, Kalish (I wonder if you could morph a Delvian, since they're technically plants?)
Or a Time Lord. TARDIS's are alive... wonder if you could morph them, too? I mean, they grow from corals, which are animals, why not?
-
I was just thinking, the Time Lord would be the perfect morph. You could even trap yourself over the two hour limit and because Time Lords regenerate naturally, you'd be able to morph back thanks to the natural morphing rule.

I completely forgot about that! I wonder if you could even wait a few regenerations before de-morphing? You could pretty much be immortal with that, 'cause then you could just re-morph again. Visser Three would be so pissed LOL.
-
Well I'm a recent convert to the Dr. Who universe, so admittedly I don't know all the rules. But I'm obsessed enough to know that Timelords can be killed.
A dracon beam or a shredder set at the highest setting could pretty much evaporate all of the cells in a timelord's body. So far the Doctor's body has been pretty much intact so it's safe to say that fully destroying the body cancles out the regeneration.
Not sure about beheading, so you'd want to be careful around Andalites. But hell, the Racknos (sp?) is scared of the Timelords and from what I've seen the Andalites are small potatoes compared to her.
-
Yeah, right after I posted that I was like "oh damn, tail blades."
Everyone's scared of the Doctor! They all had to work together to come up with a plan that actually works, and even that backfired. Pretty sure Andalites would be no big deal over all, other than the whole possibly-being-beheaded thing.
Wonder what the Timelord mind would be like? I mean, it would've killed Donna if the Doctor hadn't stepped in. I bet it'd be easy to completely get lost the moment it asserted itself.
-
Anyone mind explaining what a Time Lord is?
-
They're aliens from a show called Doctor Who. They look like Humans, but they have 2 hearts, and can regenerate into a new body if they're hurt badly but not dead yet. The Doctor is the only one left in the universe, and he usually travels around through space and time being awesome.
-
Is he the one who plays Barty Crouch Jr in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire?
-
Yes he is!
Although at this point he's regenerated again and is now a guy named Matt Smith.
-
Wow, I actually didn't know that because I haven't watched Goblet of Too Much Teenage Romance To Fit in the Plot of Fire since I saw it in theaters, but here he is.

Nice to know that movie was good for something other than selling action figures and spawning the European half of the Twilight franchise.
-
A Skrull would be pretty cool. I mean they're alien shapeshifters so...yeah.
-
Yoda from Star Wars. Come on! Two of him fighting at once could destroy Lord Sidious. That or a Spung. Or a Klingon.
-
I wouldn't mind morphing int Christopher Walken.
-
A wookie would be pretty cool as a combat morph because an upset Wookiee could tear a person's arms out of their sockets. and getting stuck in morph wouldn't be too bad because the average lifespan of Wookiees is around 600 years.
-
Yoda's lived NINE HUNDRED YEARS! Just morph a Force sensitive younger member of his species, and then you've got it made! Though personally, I'd love to morph a wizard from Harry Potter. Or a magical creature like a dragon, acromantula, or a Cerberus.
-
How about a Tusken Raider/Sand Person?

Unfortunately, if you were to follow the current Star Wars mythology, you need a high midichlorian (sp?) count. And midichlorians are a seperate species of organism that lives within the cells at varying levels of concentration in certain Jedi.
So even if you were to acquire Annakin Skywalker, with a higher count than even Yoda, you would only acquire his DNA and not that of the midichlorians. You'd basically be a cardboard cutout of the real thing.

I know this might be stretching things a bit. But the Vorlon and Shadow spaceships are living things and they're pretty badass. If they have acquirable DNA I'd say go for it.

Of course by that same logic you could probably acquire Talon or Moira from Farscape.
-
Talking about naturally regenerating moprhs what about a phoenix? That would be cool - only thought it cause of the Harry Potter references.
Oohh. Cerberus would be cool.
What about LoTR? Ents the tree folk, a dragon, or the massive elephants?
Or what about Avatar the Last Airbender? The animated series, not the film. You could have sky bison, komodo rhinos, other dragons.
Some very cool possibilities.
-
The idea of "living spaceships" gave me the idea to morph Ryo-Ohki, from the Tenchi series.
So cute, yet so much raw destructive power.

^ Plus Ryo-Ohki has multiple forms, so you'd get the whole natural morphing thing, too.
LOL she was my first cosplay, actually.
-
I really have to watch that sometime. I only read the No Need for Tenchi manga series.
-
I'd morph Saiyan from Dragon Ball's universe, and try keeping it as a body if I could train enough. Who needs a rhino when you can break walls yourself?
-
It's been said but I only just read this topic but definitely Time Lord. I didn't think about the ability to be able to combine morphing I have to admit but it's pretty damn good point! So not including their inherent ability to regenerate when near death (or their almost limitless age). Other reasons for Time Lord:
- A degree of telepathy (mind reading, memory erase, memory planting)
- Being able to see all the possibilities "Every waking second, I can see: what is, what was, what could be, what must not."
- Unaffected by some time manipulations
- Shrug off most forms of lethal radiation
- Resistance to most poisons, extreme temperatures
Plus if since we're on Earth all humans look Time lord so I wouldn't stand out unless I wanted to be =P
Practically speaking it's their mental potential that stands out. There are other aliens etc that you could say have much higher levels of telepathy or (long range telepathy) but Time Lords can see all possibilities which is I guess similar to Trance's ability from the TV series Andromeda. Unlike most other aliens Time Lord's abilities are much more subtle. I find being able to be bullet proof, super strength (รก la Superman) overkill besides in most fiction to balance out the stories the mental capacities of these super powered aliens are susceptible to trickery by their average level of intelligence.

I bet that the Doctor would be able to overcome a Yeerk if it entered his brain!
I choose to morph Superman!
