The Water Civilization's Cyber Lords

Cyber Lords are the dominant race of the Water world. They are able to communicate telepathically with other Cyber Lords and can control other races with their brain waves.
Although they are highly advanced intellectually and technologically, they usually resemble either infants or fetuses floating in a cylinder of fluid. Each Cyber Lord has a large chip installed in his or her head, connected by numerous glittering cables to other parts of his or her body. Very aware of their physical weakness, Cyber Lords avoid participating in actual fights whenever possible. If necessary, they will fight using telekinesis, but prefer not to because it drains them of power. Instead, they take pride in developing skills to avoid war, including retreat, manipulation, stealth, and negotiation.

The Cyber Lords reside in the core of their underwater cities, linked to, and controlling, almost everything. They use their prodigous intelligence to create new soldiers amongst the Liquid People, or new 'toys' amongst the Gel Fish that they utilize as their true warrior race within their armies. Always looking for a new way to manipulate either creatures or situations to their advantage, they are usually known as ruthless and calculating. In battle, their abilities vary greatly, from espionage and suppression, to setting traps, negating traps, telekinesis, and soldier creation. Each Cyber Lords abilities are almost completely unique to them, and together they even have the potential to pose a credible threat despite their weak forms.

There are rumors, believed by most outside even the Water Civilization, and known to be true within that Water Civilization, of a Cyber Lord whose intelligence has evolved to the level where he can be considered Emperor of the entire Water realm.
