Point is, they're not a "oh i'll eat everyone and flood the galaxy" entity. They're not expansionists, don't have a desire to eat everyone and are more complex than some "I wanna eat everyone for the lulz" archetype.
The part where they kill millions without realizing it is not a thing that happens because they're hungry or expanding. It's far more selective than that.

In other news I have an idea for what my alien will be and I want to know my comrades opinions on it. Lóāng. They would be a humanoid dragon creatures based off Chinese Dragons and how they acted. So wise. I feel like it would be a good contrast from most most humanoid dragons because they all seem to be warmongering beasts based off the dragons of Europe.
