Syntak was the youngest member of a large family of creatures on a distant planet, but it is presumed that they were killed when the planet was destroyed.

Appearance
He is the last of a morphogenic race and as such his appearance can be any organic being. His presumed true appearance is a silver gelatenous goo that weighs around 15 lbs. Kaylee has noted that Silver has a very faint metallic smell to him, no matter what form he is in, yet Dr. Walker has been unable to verify this.

Bio
Syntak Illumi Vermicus, better known as Silver, was born on a distant planet as part of a race of sentient shape-changing beings. His race, while able to survive outside of an atmosphere, tend to go into a dormant state when in space. Syntak wasn't very old when his planet was destroyed but he managed to survive inside a chunk of planetary debris as it traveled through space. It passed through the asteroid belt before finally drifting into Earth's atmosphere. The now smaller chunk of space rock crash landed in the Northwestern US and Silver escaped the burning chunk and burrowed into the ground, out of fear, where he would remain for nearly 75 years.

In 2008, he was discovered by Samuel Walker while the latter was hiking with friends.

Abilities and Forms
Thought-sharing: A very limited form of telepathy where Silver uses images and feelings to communicate instead of forming words. It is not currently known if this is by choice or not.

Shape-shifting: An innate ability of his race where Silver can manipulate his nature and amount of his cells to become almost any organic being. He can also assume the inorganic form of a dog hat that Kaylee is sometimes seen wearing.


 * German Shepherd: One of Silver's most common forms is that of a silver sable german shepherd, and he uses this form either to help guide Kaylee or when she's in danger. As with his other forms his eyes are always pure silver.


 * Raccoon Dog: Less common than the shepherd, this form was the form 'he' appeared in when Dr. Walker discovered him.
