I pre-ordered the alien archive from Amazon and cannot wait until it is ready to ship. I hear it has rules for making aliens as both monsters and PC races.
However I worry if it will be good at handling species defects or not. The Pathfinder book on races had all the abilities you could ever want, but very few defects.
However some of the aliens I am thinking of making have the following problems.
Debilitating condition: A species hit by a disease, curse, or poisoning that cannot be cured, only held off. Who seek a cure among the stars.
Alien psysiology: They need to breathe odd gases or live at temperatures uncomfortable or lethal to most species yet find normal temperatures harmful.
No fine manipulators: For bird-like, dog like, or fleshy glob like aliens without hands.
Truely alien communication methods: Such as communicating through scents, electric field modulation, and such.
