Monolith creatures

During his expedition beyond the Solar System, the Drifter and his crew encountered strange alien creatures on a desolate, icy planet. These creatures projected a field which suppressed Light, and were described as headless, "vacuous," shadowy forms. Many were found imprisoned within monolith-like alien structures, apparently in a form of cryogenic suspension, but others were also found roaming free around the planet.

Trivia

 * The Drifter's description of these creatures is reminiscent of the mysterious shadowy creatures depicted in Cayde's Treasure Island Book, drawings of which accompany his description of the Collapse.
