"In Space no one can hear you scream"
Welcome to the world of Alien aka Xenomorphs who first appeared on our screens in 1979 and followed up by a sequel in 1986. Xenomorphs are an extraterrestrial, endoparasitoid species with multiple life cycles, possibly originating from the planet Proteus (also known as Xenomorph Prime). One of the deadliest of all known alien species, these creatures need a host organism in order to reproduce. The appearance of the Xenomorph varies depending on its host. The human phenotype is generally around 7–8 feet, and roughly 136.0 to 181.4 kilogrammes in weight, with a long, muscular tail and large, curved, oblong head. The Queen of this species is generally twice as large (they can grow even larger, some even up to 100 feet tall, and stronger if given time) and possesses superior speed, strength and intelligence. The term Xenomorph is derived from the Greek words Xeno ("stranger", "alien", and "foreigner") and morphe ("form", "shape").
More importantly they are very cool and the films spawned one of the greatest female heroes to ever grace the silver screens.
The Backstory:
The events happen's between Alien and Aliens, while Ellen Ripley floated through space things at another colony are about to go to shit. Colony Alpha 51, a research facility which is developing ways for humankind to advance and thrive on other planets as well as develop weapons, researching DNA of any species they can get their hands on and even trying to find alternative ways to grow and sustain life. However the humans were not here first, they were the second to arrive, the first were the Xenomorphs. Thousands of eggs, mostly unhatched were found in a deep cavern located under the facility itself. The cavern expands for miles in every direction, the caverns also lead to ruins which support that the Xenomorphs were not the first on this planet either. Human nature is a curious one and so in the interest of science those who dealt with species decided to play a bit of god.
Ten prisoners were subjected to tests, one involving the eggs hatching and allowing the face huggers to impregnate the hosts. Nine of the ten subjects died, one had survived for now. The lab now had what they called Xenomorphs in the labs, each numbered and even names. The aliens had been put through tests twisting their DNA to the point that they were no longer standard Xenomorphs, a fatal mistake on the human side of things. Each Alien, now even more intelligent than their original bloodline escaped through creating confusion among the humans. With them out of containment they each went their own way and were not heard from for several days. Several days of them evolving and turning into queens, each of the nine Xenomorphs creating eggs and each one hatching a mutant face hugger. Each face hugger would produce unique eggs corresponding to each queen.
By this point humans began disappearing, people assumed they went crazy or the most logical reasoning went off to do field studies and probably got lost. In truth, various members of staff had been impregnated, Xenomorphs were born in hours who grew to full-size Xenomorphs a few hours later. These were drone Xenomorph who went on to find my humans to expand their numbers. These Xenomorphs were different.
Xenomorphs:
I. Alpha [This Xenomorph and its offspring were like most Xenomorphs however they had electrical elements produced in its body and therefore could electrocute it's target. The Xenomorph glows an eerie blue but can hide it when in the darkness, blue bright veins run across its whole body]
II. Beta [This Xenomorph is similar to the Alpha Xenomorph but this one can produce fire and incinerate its enemies. The Xenomorph glows an eerie crimson red but can hide it when in the darkness, red bright veins run across its whole body]
III. Gamma [This Xenomorph is similar to the Alpha Xenomorph but this one can produce ice and freeze unlucky enemies. The Xenomorph glows an eerie grey but can hide it when in the darkness, grey veins run across its whole body]
IV. Delta [This Xenomorph is similar to the Alpha Xenomorph but this one can go invisible to confuse it's enemies. This Xenomorph is the ninja out of all the Xenomorphs, it is smaller than the standard Xenomorph but is also the fastest.]
V. Eta [This Xenomorph is similar to the Delta Xenomorph but this one can take more blows than other Xenomorphs thanks to its extra thick hide. This Xenomorph is bulkier than the standard Xenomorph but moves slower yet still tricky in the dark]
VI. Theta [Unknown]
VII. Iota [This Xenomorph is similar to the Alpha Xenomorph but this one can explode at will blowing its enemies up. The Xenomorph glows an eerie yellow but can hide it when in the darkness, yellow bright veins run across its whole body. These Xenomorphs are the least shielded of all the Xenomorphs]
VIII. Kappa [This Xenomorph is similar to the Alpha Xenomorph but this one can scramble radars and electronic devices making equipment useless until it is gone. The Xenomorph glows an eerie purple but can hide it when in the darkness, dark purple veins run across its whole body]
IX. Omega [This Xenomorph who should be the weakest is actually the strongest in terms of raw power and speed. It has no elemental power though is much bigger than the standard Xenomorph. They have big spikes on their back, arms and tail which are razor sharp]
They all have a more potent acid in their blood.
The Premise:
Report:
A team of four-five people have been sent to the site which has been in the dark for about a month now. Each person on board is a marine, the best of the best in fact. Their mission is to find out what happened to the site, find survivors if they can and more importantly if they find something unusual try to catch it and bring it back alive. Clearly this company have to learn things the hard way. Each member is trained in unique skills to cover one another, they are not allowed back until they find out what is going on at the now dark facility. Things sound easy until they meet the unique breeds of Xenomorph since none of the members have ever come across these creatures before they begin to panic. Mistakes are made and the team find themselves heading into deeper territory which is the worse idea of all. 15 Levels and each floor are now in ruins, a few places on certain floors remain untouched mostly the eco areas of the compound.
Survivors do exist but it is a race against time to save them as the Xenomorphs are on the hunt to expand their own subspecies. Even though the Xenomorphs are all different in some ways they don't fight each other. Also, time is against them as the longer these creatures stay alive the quicker they will reproduce before escaping and spreading into uncontrollable numbers. The planet has several other areas where humans live and try to expand the existence of humankind. One of the give members is not who they say there are and throughout the RP will try and sabotage the others in many ways.
To make it even simpler these RP objectives are:
-Search and destroy
-Find and Recover
-Extraction
-Delete unneeded files
-Relay Co-ordinates
-Restraint and Capture
-Extermination
Extra:
I have not hosted a group RP since the old guild or as far as I remember anyway. Also, come on, Xenomorphs people and they are evolved to talk about a cool concept. It is probably delivered strangely, however.
