You mentioned that you never like any of the canon alien Ultimate Forms, so I'm here to challenge that!

Name
Ultimate Phantom Lord

Appearance
 Ultimate Phantom Lord’s form resembles that of a wraith, with his “body” shrouded in darkness, and no clear answer as to what it really looks like. The only fully discernable parts are four long black arms ending in pinkish claws (two of which have unevolved Phantom’s Lord protective skin stilll remaining and peeling off around the wrists), a mess of grey and black tentacles spilling out the bottom of his hood, and two beady, glowing pink eyes. Ultimate Phantom Lord wears a cloak made out of his unevolved form’s protective skin layer, but it has petrified, ripped and tanned from purplish white to dark red and black with a small amount of white remaining along the front. It sports 14 pink eyes and multiple black veins, along with countless warts, bumps, tears and holes. He wears the evolved StarTrix symbol on his chest.

Abilities
 Ultimate Phantom Lord possesses most of the abilities of an unevolved Ectonurite, like flight, intangibility, and invisibility. However, his ability to possess and control has been increased astronomically. With his four elongated hands capable of reaching out extreme lengths, he can possess as many targets as he has fingers instead of just one at a time, granting the potential to lead an army of up to 16, and control whatever powers and abilities said targets have, if applicable. The less people under his control however, the more he can concentrate on each one and affectively use them to his advantage.

Ultimate Phantom Lord's shedded skin acts as a protective cloak against the elements, and its many eyes can move up down and around its veins, literally giving him ‘eyes in the back of his head’, and making any type of sneak attack virtually impossible. His protective skin layer is petrified and rotted, but can now function as a thick cover that can stand against most bruising and punishment thrown at it, and shield himself and others for a time from attacks like punches, blunt weapons, bullets, etc.

Ultimate Phantom Lord's elongated hands have evolved with more powerful tendons and muscles, giving them the ability to stretch and retract. While his claws are dangerous on their own, this makes him capable of using his sharpened digits like jackhammers to attack with up to 16 quick and vicious strikes.

Whatever's inside Ultimate Phantom Lord's cloak is a mystery, but it can double as quick protection for an ally, or storage for an unlucky foe pulled inside.

Ultimate Phantom Lord commands a terrifying presence, not only because of his hideous appearance or speedy, unnerving movements, but also with the use of an adaptation brought about by his evolution. His many eyes and the darkness of the possible body within his cloak have evolved to twitch and vibrate at a barely noticeable, yet specific speed at all times, giving them a small, hypnotic like ability to rattle the senses of his victims. If one were to look directly into either spot, it would register danger and terror in the victim’s mind and bring about shaky, pulsing vision that is meant to disorientate and paralyze, leaving them stuck in place for Ultimate Phantom Lord to capture or eliminate.

Weaknesses
 Ultimate Phantom Lord’s power over possession is unmatched, but if he pushes that power to its full limit, it would mean having to spread his mind to 16 beings, severely dividing his focus. If he is to concentrate and maintain all 16 links, he must be out of sight, out of reach or protected in some way as to not disrupt his connection, which in turn drastically decreases his ability to move, avoid enemy attacks, protect himself and others, etc. The connection to the beings Ultimate Phantom Lord possesses can be broken if he is attacked or loses focus, or if a possessed being somehow dies.



 Ultimate Phantom Lord’s terrifying presence forces his allies to turn away from him as well, and he risks disorientating them if they dare to look at him directly. It can also only affect organic, living beings, so artificial beings like robots are unaffected by this power.

Though incredibly strong, Ultimate Phantom Lord’s petrified cloak has a limit to how many heavy attacks he can block before they begin to injure him.

Bright sunlight now only poses a slight discomfort to Ultimate Phantom Lord. However, lasers and other concentrated energy weapons are the only weapons that can noticeably and effectively damage him and his petrified cloak on the first shot.

Trivia
 Ultimate Phantom Lord’s cloak has been tanned dark red because its DNA simulation environment. It was tested over millions of years in a sun beaten desert area with no dark corners or shade in sight. As a result, the sample's protective skin dried out, peeled away and adapted to the red sands that contrasted against his purplish white skin, allowing him to lie down and camouflage against the ground. The self inflicted holes and tears also serve the function of keeping his body ventilated in such conditions.



The small patch of white remaining on Ultimate Phantom Lord's cloak appears because the tested sample laid face down to completely blend into his surroundings, hiding the front of his body from fully tanning and petrifying.

No one can tell what the true form of Ultimate Phantom Lord looks like underneath his cloak. A bright light in his face or to his supposed body would yield no help in seeing through the darkness. Taking off said cloak would be no use either, as it appears to still be stuck to his body as skin at the head, neck and back.
