Desserians

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Desserians are a race of extraterrestrial creatures that appeared on the television series Tracker.

They evolved on a desert world in the Migar System. Apparently, not desenced from predators, they were forced to develop extreme blending abilities, not unlike the Earth chameleon. As such, Desserians are extremely difficult to spot in a crowd, as they can also blend into social groups with ease. Much of plantline on their home planet is poisonous. As a result, Desserian taste buds act as portable chemical laboratories to spot poisons before they enter the bloodstream.

Although there have been several minor Desserian characters such as Zareth and Suudor, the only main Desserian character was Nestov, a good natured fugitive con-artist. When he was first admitted to the prison planet, Nestov falcified his records to pass himself off as a Nodulian, a more aggressive species.
