Orishan are a species of naturally armored molluscan aliens from the planet Kiusana[merch 1] in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Appearance[]
Orishan are a red mollusk-like species. They have two large eyes in Ultimate Alien and four slitted and rectangular eyes in Omniverse. They have small grey spikes and black spots on the back of their legs and shoulders. Their mouth is similar to that of a crab's.
Orishan have portholes on their four-clawed hands.
Orishan have hoods over their heads, with a retractable visor. Their hood is also retractable.
Powers and Abilities[]
Orishan can manipulate different sources of water, including normal Earth water.[1][ES 1][DM 1]
Orishan can launch pressurized blasts of water through the portholes in their hands. They can also change the temperature of their water powers from hot to cold.[2] Using these same portholes, they can absorb water[merch 2] and moisture, including from the air.[3]
Orishan can jump exceptionally high.[4] They can also use their water blasts to propel themselves into the air.[DR 1]
Orishan have enhanced strength, enough to throw a Buglizard into a nearby wall[5] and punch craters into a concrete floor.[4]
Orishan are extremely durable, being able to withstand crashing into a wall seemingly painlessly.[6] They have an armored exoskeleton that protects their bodies from damage, including physical attacks, thereby making them almost completely invulnerable.[7][8][merch 1]
Orishan can breathe underwater.[1][DM 2]
Orishan can withstand radiation, such as that generated by a Prypiatosian-B.[9] However, they have been shown to be potentially hurt by the force of a Prypiatosian-B's radiation attack.[9]
Similar to Kinecelerans, Orishan have retractable visors hidden under their hoods.[10] Their hoods are also retractable.[10][DJW 1]
Orishan are very clever and adept with technology, which allows them to build and repair complex machines, as demonstrated by Bivalvan.[1][merch 1]
Weaknesses[]
Orishan are vulnerable to intense heat, such as that generated by a Prypiatosian-B.[11][12]
Orishan are vulnerable to electricity.[13]
Orishan can be frozen by a Necrofriggian's ice breath.[14] Similarly, they can be ensnared by an Evolved Arachnichimp's webs, as demonstrated with Bivalvan.[1]
Technology[]
Orishan glass is known to be the best to adapt to multiple atmospheres.[15]
Notable Orishan[]
- Water Hazard (the Omnitrix's DNA sample of an Orishan)
- Hose Hands (the Hero Watch's DNA sample of an Orishan)
- Bivalvan
Notable Orishan Hybrids[]
- Ultimate Aggregor (1/6 Orishan)
- Ultimate Kevin (part Orishan)
Etymology[]
Trivia[]
- Because the Orishan are from the Andromeda Galaxy, Orishan DNA wasn't in the Codon Stream until the Ultimatrix scanned Bivalvan in Fame.
- Orishan are considered a separate species from the Cascans from the reboot.[DR 2]
- The Cascan's home planet was originally going to be called Orishan during pre-production of the reboot.[16] This was changed with the release of Overflow's Alien Worlds short.
