  • The Ish are possibly one of the strangest species ever encountered by humanity. They are a sapient memetic lifeform which manifests itself as the suffix "ish", whether spoken, written or simply thought. The Ish is described as a "metavore", as it feeds on the meanings of linguistic terms, absorbing word after word within the minds it inhabits and rendering the subjects in a zombie-like state, unable to communicate anything other than "Ish".
  • Ish (played by Jimmy Herman) was a Trego Native American, born around 1930], who lived in the Trego Indian Reservation. In 1946, he was returning home from fishing at Cut Bank Creek when he took a shortcut behind Watkins house. He heard a strange groan and looked into the house, where he saw Watkins transforming into a manitou. After Watkins saw him, Ish ran home. In 1973, he was present at Wounded Knee during the civil unrest there. He would later claim that one thing he "learned fighting the FBI is you don't believe in us and we don't believe in you".

  • The Ish are possibly one of the strangest species ever encountered by humanity. They are a sapient memetic lifeform which manifests itself as the suffix "ish", whether spoken, written or simply thought. The Ish is described as a "metavore", as it feeds on the meanings of linguistic terms, absorbing word after word within the minds it inhabits and rendering the subjects in a zombie-like state, unable to communicate anything other than "Ish". The Ish originated as an affix of the Omniverbum: an infinitely long word. As a linguistic singularity, the Omniverbum is to meaning as a black hole is to matter. It originated in the first instants after the Big Bang, when the universe was still small and condensed enough that sound could travel through it. The inhabitants of the planet Xenocubis, where the Ish was first found, believe that all of creation originated as that primordial word, and everything else since represents corrupted or distorted echoes of that word. According to the Doctor, there are many other linguistic life forms besides the Ish, most of which aren't as hostile. This may imply that there is as much diversity among memetic species as there is among physical ones.

In 1946, he was returning home from fishing at Cut Bank Creek when he took a shortcut behind Watkins house. He heard a strange groan and looked into the house, where he saw Watkins transforming into a manitou. After Watkins saw him, Ish ran home. In 1973, he was present at Wounded Knee during the civil unrest there. He would later claim that one thing he "learned fighting the FBI is you don't believe in us and we don't believe in you". In 1994, he encountered Fox Mulder and Dana Scully in a diner on the reservation. He told them to leave as he felt they didn't belong among the Tregoes. He also told them Parker had killed what they were looking for. Ish believed Mulder to be more open to Native American beliefs than some of his own people. He later told Mulder and Sheriff Charles Tskany of his encounter with the manitou five decades earlier. He also told them that the manitou rose again and that it could be passed along blood lines. As Mulder and Scully were leaving, he told them he would see them again "in about ... eight years". (TXF: "Shapes")
