The Battalasks are a species of alien that lives on the planet Battalask, well outside the Jurassic Quadrant. They look like gigantic bats with three legs, pterosaur-like wings, and extremely long fangs that reach to their toes. They may use echolocation like bats do and have extremely sensitive ears, making them vulnerable to loud noises. Sometimes they wear headsets to protect their hearing. They are skilled with machinery and, despite their odd appearances, can fly. While physically weak, the Battalasks are extremely aggressive, preferring to die in battle than surrender or retreat, and like to create other beings to do the fighting for them.
