The Komar are sentient, trianic-based energy beings who live in a dark-matter nebula and subsist off the neural energy of passing ship crews; Voyager's crew would have sustained them for years to come. They can, by choice, inhabit a body temporarily with no lasting damage, but a magneton flash will drive them out. They can also penetrate a ship's shield after a sustained effort: as Voyager's shields were depleted with its sensors blind, Chakotay's disembodied neural energy inherited Neelix and arranged the stones on his medicine wheel to show the way out of the nebula.
