Nestene Consciousness
The Nestene Consciousness (also known as the Nestenes and as the Mother Consciousness) was a disembodied life force that could possess plastic.
Biology
The Consciousness was a being of pure psychic energy although it usually took on a physical form that resembled a squid. Since it’s molecular structure was similar to plastic, it could control the material.
Due to its nature, a Nestene manifestation could serve as a brain or nervous system while it’s body would be made out of plastic.
After the Great Time War, the Nestene Consciousness’ physical form was more liquid in nature with a humanoid face.
Abilities
The Consciousness could exist in various forms since it existed in everything it controlled. They could speak through their Autons.
