Seen in the Doug Naylor book Last Human, the Alberogs are chimera-type GELFs with the heads of albatrosses, the bodies of bears and the legs of giant frogs. Alberogs make up most of the population of the asteroid Arranguu 12, the site of the Gelf Forum of Justice. The Regulator of Justice is an Alberog.
The Alberogs, first introduced in Doug Naylor's book Last Human, are a unique species of GELF (Genetically Engineered Life Forms) with a striking chimera-like appearance. These bizarre creatures possess the heads of albatrosses, characterised by sleek feathers and massive beaks, while their bodies resemble those of powerful, lumbering bears. Adding to their oddity, they have the long, muscular legs of giant frogs, allowing them to move with surprising agility despite their bulky frames.
Alberogs make up the majority of the population on the asteroid Arranguu 12, a key location in the universe of Red Dwarf'' as the home of the Gelf Forum of Justice. This asteroid serves as a centre for legal disputes among various GELF species, and the Regulator of Justice, the primary authority overseeing these proceedings, is an Alberog. Their imposing physicality and sharp intellect make them both respected and feared within the GELF community, embodying the perfect balance between brute strength and wisdom.
Notes[]
The species Dingotangs has never appeared in the Red Dwarf television series. They are exclusively featured in Doug Naylor's novel Last Human.
