<p><b>New page</b></p><div>According to [[Fwiffo]], the [[Spathi]] as a whole live in constant fear of an enigmatic, malicious alien race known simply as the '''Ultimate Evil'''. Since Fwiffo is the only Spathi to discuss the Ultimate Evil, it is unknown exactly how prevalent the belief in and fear of the Ultimate Evil is among the Spathi. Nothing is actually known about the powers, intentions, or even the true identity of this race. However, the race's furtive nature, lurking just beyond the reach of the most powerful long-range sensors, is evidence (according to Fwiffo) of its nefarious intent. According to Fwiffo, this fear is so powerful that the Spathi contingent of the [[Earthguard]], with the exception of the [[StarRunner]], disobeyed orders from the [[Ur-Quan Kzer-Za|Ur-Quan]] and returned to [[Spathiwa]] to defend against a possible surprise attack by the Ultimate Evil. Of course, regardless of the appeal that the idea of an Ultimate Evil might have on a non-Spathi species, it is most likely that the Ultimate Evil is simply non-existent. Indeed, the fact that [[Paul Reiche III]]/[[Fred Ford]] didn't recall what the Ultimate Evil is when asked about it suggests that this is not an important plot point, but merely a product of the Spathi's paranoia.{{ref|1}}<br />
<br />
The Spathi's description of the Ultimate Evil shares similarities with the mysterious interdimensional parasites mentioned by the [[Arilou]], the entities which Science Officer [[Bukowski]] simply calls [["They"|'Them']], and possibly the [[Orz]]; but, there is no evidence that any of these can be identified as the Ultimate Evil. In the case of the Orz, the Spathi admit that the Orz are 'creepy,' but do not associate them with the Ultimate Evil.<br />

::<_Stilgar> <Spyhunter> Fwiffo: "How does an "Ultimate Evil" -race in an SC2 -style game behave when meeting the player?"<br><br />
::<Fwiffo> You mean the big carnivorous teddy bears on [[Spathiwa]]?<br><br />
::<Xxyl> I believe those were those "[[Evil Ones]]"<br><br />
::<_Stilgar> <Spyhunter> Fwiffo: "No, I mean the main enemy in the game. ;)"<br><br />
::<Fwiffo> Oh yeah. Well, I rarely paint someone as absolutely "evil" -- it's all a matter of perspective. What is interesting is why people (aliens) do things that seem evil to you or me, and what prevents us from doing the same.<br />
