The Exifs (エクシフ,   Ekushifu) are a race of extraterrestrials created by Toho and Polygon Pictures that first appeared in the 2017 Godzilla film, GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters. They are one of three member races of the United Earth, along with the Humans and Bilsards.

Name

This race's English name is given as "Exif" on the official website for GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters, which is a close approximation of their Japanese name, Ekushifu (エクシフ). However, the English-language press materials given to SciFi Japan by Toho use two different names for the race: Exiles and Xiliens.

Design

The Exifs look very similar to humans, but are considerably more pale and have white hair. The only two Exifs depicted so far are male religious figures, and wear long white and purple robes. Exifs possess longer lifespans than humans, and so Metphies has the appearance of a 25 year-old human despite being 50 years old, while Endurph looks like a 50 year-old human despite being 105 years old.

History

Post-Millennium Series

GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters

The Exifs joined together with the Bilsards and Humans to form the United Earth, an organization whose goal was to fight back the monster overrunning the Earth. Unfortunately, the combination of the three races' resources was powerless to stop Godzilla, and so by 2048 the Exifs helped the remnants of humanity flee the planet and emigrate to a new home in the Cetus constellation. When humanity's new home, Tau-e, proved uninhabitable, Exif religious figures Metphies and Endurph accompanied a United Earth force on a return expedition to Earth to reclaim it from Godzilla. Once they arrived, however, they discovered that 20,000 years had passed on Earth and it had become an alien ecosystem ruled by Godzilla.
