This list stems from a game my girlfriend taught me; go through the alphabet and name an alien race starting with that letter. The aliens have to be from science fiction. I present to you a list of aliens here, if you ever want to play the game and cheat. ;) Where the alien can be found is noted in parentheses after the name.

Additions are welcome; please /msg me. Update: Actually, this list became A LOT bigger than I had imagined... The game should be a piece of cake, really... I know there are many, many sci-fi series, books, films and whatnot I haven't covered here. Feel free to /msg additions, but I may not do anything about it... :)
