Qex

Grown almost too far away from rather newly formed Blue Hyper giant near the edge of the galaxy, the Qex are a disturbing, yet slightly misunderstood force in the galaxy. Many negative words can be found about the species as a whole throughout the galaxy, the main, and very valid complaint being their tendency to abduct and horribly disfigure and mutate other species for an inexhaustible scientific curiosity for other species they feel they don’t quite yet understand, but it is this very thing that has helped the galaxy deal with many of the more horrific plagues to be set upon them, the most recent one being the biological infestation of Vanj on several solar systems thanks to negligent Cruxian explorers. It is a very complicated love/hate relationship they have with the galaxy, but entirely one sided, as the Qex will continue doing their experiments with or without the consent of their subjects. Their species is driven by an insatiable need to explore and learn. Having grown up on a hostile world full of poisons, predators and even frequent meteor showers, the Qex pursue their goals with a blind determination and sometimes reckless abandon. Their experiments, as seen by others, are cruel, unsafe, aberrant and wholly immoral. The genetic manipulation of creatures and horrific dismemberment of other species within publicly leased laboratories has lead most of the galaxy to fear even a lone Qex corvette idling near their systems. And though the knowledge that not every member of the species is driven by demonic medical and scientific ambition is spreading slowly throughout the empires, virtually every Qex is met with at best, unease and distrust, and at worst open hostility on sight. Older Qex technology is much harder for other species to interface with, what with the drastically differentiating arm mechanics. However all new technology was upgraded to be designed around the use of hands as opposed to tentacles, the Qex realizing they can make good money selling their equipment to other species around the Galaxy, most of which being medical and scientific instruments of a high quality. The only other major export of the Qex is knowledge. Through their many, many years of genetic experimentation, other governments in the galaxy are able to buy information on experimentation that they themselves would otherwise be far too ‘civilized’ to perform. Many experiments are horrifically gruesome or completely and utterly ethically unsound, but still highly valuable and beneficial to the right people.

One of their signature uses of all their biological knowledge, was the discovery of a semi-organic material that protects complex atomic structures and systems from being damaged (electronics, organics mainly). Unfortunately, it's messy. It consists of coating it in a cheap gel that protects the structure from damage from the highly violent turbulence of  quantum tunneling.
