Text EntriesThis full over-head mask of a reptilian alien species called the Llort comes from the television show Babylon 5. Created by J. Michael Straczynski, and airing 1993 – 1997, the show revolves around an enormous space station that serves as neutral territory for a number of star-faring races, including humans.
Llort are seen in the background of various scenes throughout Babylon 5’s entire arc, but none was ever a major character or, for that matter, spoke a word in the show.
A rubber headpiece that covers the whole head and neck of the wearer. It is mottled brown and hairless. The top has the appearance of oversize snake scales that are blue in the center. The eyes are wide apart, the ears smaller than a human’s. The front of the face is nearly flat, jutting outward as it slopes down. The back of the neck splits open to allow someone to pull the headpiece on.
