Hi guys,
Creating a race in my fantasy/sci-fi novel that have no physical form. They appear as like a mist or very ghost like and are the antagonist to my main characters. They have the ability to possess any living thing and control it. But creating them is hard because we have nothing like it in this world to draw from. So I was wondering if anyone knew any beings similar to this in movies/tv/literature. Just so I can get some ideas of how it's done. I've already looked at Babylon 5's Vorlon's and Shadow's anything else? Other than that the only things I could find were creatures that possessed a physical form. These beings can communicate with humans once inside a human host (which is how we'll mostly see them) but creating them as a race with language, customs, beliefs, environment they live in has been very tricky.
Appreciate any help
