The Arelians are an ancient alien race from the Rebelstar: Tactical Command Tactical RPG.

Description
From the game manual:

The Arelians are small, grey-skinned, humanoid creatures with a very large head and large, black, almond shaped eyes. They don't like to participate in battles, but when they do they prefer to rely on their unique psionic power and advanced technology to win. They generally lack courage or much battle skills, but they are still formidable opponents if encountered. Arelians are from a planet that orbits the binary Zeta Reticuli A and B.
