Xenomorph sounds like the life for you, eh? Running around, acid for blood, tearing people open? Shoving phallic shaped objects down people's throats to reproduce in a no-way-not-subtle parody of something far more fun and less likely to rupture your chest?
… HOLD IT RIGHT THERE, WOULD-BE DRONE!
There's a few nuances you need to know before you roll a Xenomorph anything- not the least among them that Xenomorph anything is not entirely accurate. But Queenie, what are you talking about!
EXACTLY!
Rule 1: THERE IS A QUEEN ALREADY. Well, actually there is an Empress stationed on LV-722 that is an Overseer of all the Queens, and all the Xenomorphs by proxy. So... playing Queen and anything higher for the time being is out.
Rule 2: BE CREATIVE! It's been established that the Aliens take on some of the appearance/demeanor/etc of the person they're hosting. So get creative with what your drone/warrior/facehugger, etc looks like. But keep in mind they should be somewhat armored, larger than a normal human, and they have acid for blood now.
Rule 3: TOTAL SUBJUGATION OF WILL! Okay, that's not entirely true. For a large extent you're free to play your Xenomorph as you see fit, but within some established guidelines.
-You will be assigned a task upon creation/birthing/etc. This is your 'job' or 'duty', whatever you want to call it. Minor deviations are fine, but whatever the Queen tells you to do, short of ordering otherwise, you do it.
-If the Empress demands something of you, to the extent of hive consciousness, you will do that as well. Whatever it is. If you resist or hesitate you run a very high risk of being her next meal.
-If you're given a kill order, it will be determined either stealth or all out offensive. Should it be stealthy and you are discovered you must eliminate everyone in the immediate area before you will be permitted to attempt to escape back to the Hive. If you become a liability, you may end up dead. Of course, if you are discovered you may also end up dead. If captured, you may attempt to escape but if that isn't possible... well. It was good knowing you, soldier.
Rule 4: PERKS! Aside from armament, acid blood, and an admittedly AWESOME way to kill other people, you also are in a position to prove yourself to the Queen/Empress and the Hive as a whole. If you have made yourself a capable servant and you choose to undertake something large, you have the backing of the Hive. Wave after wave of assistance will be at your disposal. The Queen/Empress are mothers as much as they are matriarchs. Do your tasks well, and you will be subsequently rewarded.
Rule 5: THIS LIST IS NOT ALL INCLUSIVE! If you have a doubt or need clarify, PM the Empress' player. Anything not dictated here (and this list is subject to expansion or change with or without notice), will be decided for at the time of the query.
Rule 6: WHY AREN'T WE RULING THIS DAMN PLANET ALREADY!
Create your character, get it approved, get out there and go kick some ass!
