The Chee are group of fictional androids created by the also fictional, extinct species Pemalites in the book-series Animorphs. A fictional character is any person who appears in a work of fiction. ... The android Data, portrayed by Brent Spiner, from the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation An android is an artificially created robot, an automaton, that resembles a human being usually both in appearance and behavior. ... The Pemalites are a fictional dog-like race of people who have long abandoned any sort of violence. ... This page is about the book series Animorphs Animorphs Animorphs is an English language science fiction book series written by K. A. Applegate (Katherine Alice Applegate) and published by Scholastic. ...

The Pemalites, being a pacifistic race, created the Chee to be completely incapable of violence, despite their immense strength. A Chee cannot harm anything, not even in self-defense. Fortunately, they're practically indestructible. The Chee are some of the Animorphs' greatest allies, as they know almost everything about the Yeerks and can easily infiltrate their organization with their holographic imagery. A Yeerk is a fictional extraterrestrial species from the book and television series Animorphs. ...


The Pemalites also created a special grape-sized computer chip (the Pemalite Crystal) which is so powerful that it allows the Chee to change their programming; at one point, the Animorphs retrieved this chip in an attempt to allow their allies to actually fight alongside them. When Erek the Chee, their greatest ally within the Chee, used it, he was able to effortlessly slaughter more than 25 armed Controllers and hork-bajir in less than 20 seconds. The eternally vivid memory of this action so disturbed and disgusted him, that he restored the failsafes against violence in his programming. Jake eventually cast the Pemalite crystal into the ocean, and it has not been heard from since.
