History
The Bio-Energy Sentinels are a product of Department H designed to control the movement of members of Alpha Flight. They seem to be only slightly sentient in that they can follow orders. There has never been more than one sentinel seen at one time, indicating there may be only one. No explanation has been given to the Alphans as to the nature of the BES.[1]
The sentinels seem to be composed entirely of energy. There is a single eye-like part of each sentinel, through which they spy on people.[1]Properties
The Bio-Energy Sentinels have the ability to carry matter as well as the ability to render themselves and that matter intangible.[1]
Notes
- According to Basil Kilgrew, the creation of the Bio-Energy Sentinel is connected to a person called Patrice Trask.[1] Trask may have been intended to be a new character for Alpha Flight (Vol. 2), but the subplot was dropped by writer Steven T. Seagle and the character remains unseen.
