  Taalo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Taalo are a race of fictional aliens that are mentioned in the PC game Star Control II: The Ur-Quan Masters.
They were highly advanced technologically, their final creation being the Taalo Shield, created to artificially duplicate their natural resistance to Dnyarri mind-control.
They were members of the Sentient Milieu, but after the arrival and enslavement of the rest of the Milieu by the Dnyarri, they were annihilated by their former allies the Ur-Quan.

 Taalo
The Taalo were a slow, quiet, silicon-based species that is said to have borne little resemblance, if any, to the Chenjesu.
The Taalo were the only member of the Sentient Milieu who were able to resist the mental compulsion powers of the Dnyarri and maintain their freedom.
Also, while the Taalo are widely believed to be extinct, the Orz refer to them in the present tense, which suggests that some of the Taalo might still be alive.

 Ur-Quan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While they were still using crude atomic vehicles to explore their system, the Ur-Quan encountered the Taalo.

 Taalo - Ultronomicon
The Taalo are a race of rock like beings, which, although sharing a base of silicon with the Chenjesu, are very little reminiscent of them.
The Taalo were the first sentient race to encounter the Ur-Quan, and enlisted them into the Sentient Milieu.
The Taalo frantically attempted to build a device that would grant their former allies the same psychic-defense but before they could announce complete success, they were attacked and destroyed.

They found some in the far reaches of the Orion Arm (the Taalo have mentioned that the Orion Arm of the galaxy is curiously rife with sentience, almost 90% of the sentient races in the galaxy reside there).
While there are few Taalo, they are a major power in the region due to the extraordinary respect they are accorded by other races and their guardianship over the Ur-Quan.

 Taalo Shield - Ultronomicon
The Taalo Shield is an incredibly valuable, experimental, defensive weapon and the last known artifact of the ancient Taalo race.
The Taalo's unusual silicon-based, mineral-like physiology somehow made their minds alone, of all members of the Sentient Milieu, immune to psychic compulsion from the Dnyarri conquerors.
The Captain's research into the ancient Taalo allows him to recover this device from the Taalo homeworld 20,000 years later, at which time it plays a crucial role in the Second War.

Seven of the member-races were well-known throughout the Milieu: the Drall, the Faz, the Mael-Num, the Taalo, the Ur-Quan, the Yuli, and the Yuptar.
As the Taalo, who were immune to the Dnyarri's psychic powers, rushed to complete a device that would provide similar immunity to the other Milieu races, the Dnyarri compelled those other races to destroy the Taalo.
While the exact range of the Ur-Quan's exploration before their first encounter with the Taalo is unknown, it is generally believed that it was limited to their neighboring star systems.

Upon the Taalo's tales of the Androsynth to the Ur-Quan, the Ur-Quan declared the Androsynth under their protection as well.
It is commonly believed the Ur-Quan did this because of their particular sympathy for the Androsynth due to their telepathic manipulation by the Arilou.

We fought what we thought were invaders, but the Taalo were patient with us.
The Taalo introduced us to the idea of the "Sentient Millieu", an organization of many of races working together for their mutual benefit.
