Revision as of 08:35, 3 August 2008

The Taelons are an extraterrestrial species that appear in the sci fi TV show Earth: Final Conflict.

History

It was noted that the Taelon's were scared of the shakarava organ and it's dark power which was why they abandoned it on their quest for spiritual perfection. However, this journey fixed them in a genetic state which resulted in a slow tide towards extinction. Certain elements within the Taelon race at one time wished to steal the core energy from their Jaridian cousins at the expense of that race. This was the source of the war between the Taelon's and the Jaridians with both sides trying to destroy the other. (Episode: Gauntlet)

A group of Taelons and Jaridians attempted to solve the core energy crisis by making use of the regeneration chamber of the scientist Ma'el who left a facility at a volcano on Earth. Members of the two race's gathered at the Atavan energy pool where they merged in an attempt to save their species from extinction. (Episode: Point of No Return) However, this led the re-emergence of the Atavus race with the Taelon civilization ceasing to exist. Though a single Taelon known as Ha'Gel remained as the repository of the Taelon Commonality which sought to end the Atavus menace. (Episode: Unearthed)

Background

In a time when their core energy was too low to sustain their race, the Taelon's were capable of entering into a hibernative state known as Death Stasis which allowed them to survive for extended periods of time but meant that they were inactive. However, this state terrifies certain Taelons who are willing to steal another's core energy to avoid the stasis. If aborted, the Taelon's will then be incapable of re-entering this state which mean's unless they find the secret of core energy then they will die. (Episode: Epiphany)

A Taelon that lacked core energy entered into a crystalline state which was a form of death to their kind. However, this being the case, some Taelon's were able to willingly enter this form and return to their natural energy based selves in order to trick potential enemies. (Episode: The Forge of Creation)

The core energy had healing properties on the Human body allowing them to cure illnesses and were part of a short lived venture known as the Blood Ties project. This energy lingered within the body and was capable of being drained for reuse by the Taelon's themselves from the Human; a process which killed them. (Episode: Blood Ties)

Technology

Nanomitters were another form of technology that was capable of being implanted within the body of a person and allowed for access to system's forbidden to normal personnel. This was also capable of producing a link to another Human which was so strong that the other believed the nanomitter equipped person with with them through a form of mind-link. (Episode: Hearts & Minds)

The Taelons's were quite adept in the use of deep stasis technology the protocols of which were only known to the Synod itself as a carefully guarded secret. (Episode: Trapped in Time)
