![]() ![]() Named After Their Planet: Shlorpians from planet Shlorp.Law of Alien Names: Korvo and Yumyulack.Jerkass Realization: In the season 3 finale they finally realize just how bad their behavior has been affecting the Pupa, and make an effort to become better for his sake.But otherwise not too distinguishable from humans in body shape. Humanoid Aliens: Green or blue skin, less hair, frog-like heads and faces, and Bizarre Alien Biology.She's the nicest of the Shlorpians, but it's peppered by reason (somewhat.) and something of a moral compass compared to Terry and Yumyulack. The most actively antagonistic towards humans, developing the habit of shrinking adults he deems as deserving of it and putting them in tanks. He's perpetually optimistic and fun-loving, and the one most accustomed to earth culture. He hates earth the most, and simply wants to complete the mission and leave. The most consistently dour of the family. Extra Digits: They have "abacadactyls"(the "-dactyl" part meaning "finger" in Greek)they can extract from their wrists. ![]() Their psychotic behavior forces all of the jerks in town to act nice due to being afraid that they might anger the family and suffer a bizarre transformation as punishment. The Dreaded: Season 3 reveals that much of the town lives in fear ( and utter hatred) of them.Comedic Sociopath: Sometimes they have a conscience.The Pupa is a supercomputer meant to terraform the Earth, but is usually treated as a baby the family needs to nurture (though it's lampshaded that they sometimes see him as akin to a pet). Yumyulack and Jesse fit the mold of an older brother and younger sister, but they chose their genders arbitrarily after landing on Earth. A Boy, a Girl, and a Baby Family: Parodied.It turns out in the season 2 finale that they thought all the humans they’ve killed in the past several years would come back as trees, just like them.They also resort to things like unleashing nanobot colonies in their town's water supply to spy on them and mind control to boost their approval in the neighborhood. They actually do show a moral compass and show varying degrees of wanting to integrate with humanity, but they don't seem to have a problem with Pupa eventually destroying the planet.Bizarre Alien Limbs: They have two pairs extra fingers growing out of the side of their wrists ( like branches of a tree)called abacadactyls apparently, using them to count is considered childish.Barbie Doll Anatomy: They have no genitals or even a rectum, but are occasionally shown to (somehow) participate in penetrative copulation according to Rule of Funny which is even lampshaded as being nonsensical by Korvo.It's revealed that all the galaxy views them this way, because every time their homeworlds are destroyed (and it has happened a lot) they travel to another planet to terraform it regardless of the people that already inhabit them.Aliens Are Bastards: The Shlorpians are seen as a nuisance at best by the majority of the neighborhood because they keep getting caught in the crossfire of their experiments, or getting experimented on.And they have absolutely ripped this trope apart since then. Alien Among Us: They have been on earth for a year since the series started.Interestingly, the trope seems to be in effect for the sake of further conveying that the former two dislike being on Earth, while the latter two enjoy it. Aerith and Bob: Two Aeriths (Korvo and Yumyulack) and two Bobs (Terry and Jesse). ![]()
