| - The volcano-men are highly aggressive fire-breathing creatures made out of living rock. They are intelligent enough to run spaceships and other complex machinery, and disdain other species, especially dinosaurs. Their military strategy relies mainly on devastating sneak attacks. Their rock skin makes them difficult to fight, but the creatures are vulnerable to ice and water and can be killed through freezing. The volcano-men were, in fact, the original inhabitants of the Jurassic Quadrant, and were wiped out in a brutal war with a similar species composed of water. These water-warriors defeated the volcano-men and left the Quadrant, leaving it to the dinosaurs. However, many volcano-men, including their king Inferniak, survived the war by hiding in lava while they waited for reinforcements. Because the reinforcements never came, they continued sleeping until the megalosaurus accidentally awakened a group of them on their moon Malga. This group almost destroyed Megalos and woke Inferniak and his men on Astro Prime. Inferniak and his warriors prepared their ship for takeoff and planned the destruction of all dinosaurs in the Jurassic Quadrant. However, by working together, the DSS staff and two megalosaurus scientists (Tarq and Korlius) managed to defeat the volcano-men. Tarq and Korlius promised to track down and freeze any surviving volcano ships, and it is unknown if they are still doing this.
