As I mentioned before, the ranks of the Medusas (in ascending order) include Blue, Red, Grey, and White. The Blue ranks (numbering around 600) Are the executives. They carry decisions to the Greens from the Greys and Whites, act as ambassadors, officers, and low-level organizers. Apart from the color, they bear no difference in form from the Greens. The Reds are the warriors, the veterans of wars. Often they are the consciousness of Greens who have been in many battles placed in upgraded shells. They tend to be bulkier, more armored, with a sharper optical system, and the head-tentacles are tipped with tazers. They are allowed to carry some of the heavier weapons. There are close to 1,000 of them. The Greys act as the bodyguards to the Whites, and so there are only a few dozen of them. Their coloration is not exactly Grey, but instead a dimmed off-white. They have the same bodies as the Greens but with two opposable thumbs, a third eye, and a silver crown. They also carry medium range tazer-staffs. The White (for there is only one) is the ruler of all Medusas. It has pure white coloration that glows very brightly, and it has a moving mouth. It has anti-grav pads underneath its feet as well, so that it can hover without holding itself up by its own head-arms. It usually hovers within a large armored orb that can only be opened by a White, and its head-arms do not have tazers or claws, but information cables. It plugs them directly into a large computer and transmitter so it can think with extraordinary speed and skill, even for a Medusa, essentially becoming a supercomputer, or rather a super-supercomputer, as it exceeds the boundaries of any supercomputer we know. The transmitter amplifies these thoughts and spreads its commands to all Medusas and links them all together. The Blues amplify these messages to the Greens, as the signal weakens as it travels to lower-rank Medusas.
Whew! I think that's everything (half of that I think I made up on the spot.)
