Psirens

Using telepathy to induce hallucinations, the Psirens would lure space travellers onto the asteroids on which they resided and then suck their brains out with a small metal straw. Their neutral form is something akin to a seven-foot cockroach. (And you wouldn't believe the mess they make when you shoot one. It took me a week to get the luminous green blood off that floor!) One cunningly disguised itself as my creator, Professor Mamet, who ordered me to crush my body in the garbage compactor. I was powerless to refuse!
