Origin[]
Zutarians, also called Imps, were an alien race native to the planet Zutarn. They possessed technology a thousand years advanced of Earth such as monocars, rocket-powered air transports, as well as long-range ray guns, and powerful knockout gas guns. The Zutarians also had an organized military but were not an aggressive race until the human known as Tyrno conquered them. They are helped by Golden Knight and his partner Alice to overthrow Tyrno and prevent him from taking Alice as his wife. For his help, Golden Knight wins the respect and admiration of their people and is told that he could return anytime he wishes as their friend.

Notable Individuals[]
Ulka — He was the imp who was among the party of three who discovered the sky chariot carrying Golden Knight and Alice. He, along with Ho Gana, took the duo back to Tyrno's palace, but when he asked Tyrno for a reward, the tyrant sent Ulka to the dungeon. Golden Knight forgave the imp, and, moved by the Earthling's compassion, Ulka decided he would help him. Golden Knight and Ulka battled a fierce sea monster and then burst into the palace. Ulka jumped at Tyrno to save Alice but was struck down; the villain was then shot by multiple ray blasts by Ulka's fellow imps. Ulka then wished his new friends goodbye and told them they could return to Zutarn anytime they wished with his blessing.
