[Introduction] A group of aliens have decided to take a vacation together. They are visiting a distant planet that they have heard strange and interesting tales about. The place? Earth! The planet they are from is called Zgoob. It is a lot like Earth in climate and gravitational pull. It is also the third planet from it's sun. However, they have a very different outlook on life, religion and politics. Wondering what that is? Read the story and find out!

When you join, your first post should tell us about your character. Are you one of the visiting aliens? Or are you an Earthling that happens to encounter the aliens after they've arrived? The choice is yours. I'd like between 6-12 aliens, preferably, and up to 12 Earthlings that they meet and get to know.

First post should include:

Name:
Age:
Planet: (Earth or Zgoob)
More info about location you're from(if desired):
Physical Description:
Personality:
Religious beliefs (if any):
Phobias/Fears:
Strengths/Weaknesses:
Anything else you think we should know:

Thanks and have fun. The content rating is GC, so you can get graphic if you need to. Just please don't have sex or violence just for the hell of it, make it a part of the story and have it in some way move the plot along or enhance the plot.

Thanks!

To keep things moving smoothly, if you don't post within 48 hours of your turn being announced, you'll be skipped. If you know you're not going to have time or can't think of something, you can skip yourself, however, being skipped or skipping yourself three times consecutively will cause me to disable you as a member until you email me letting me know you're ready to join in again.

Also, if you don't make a FIRST post within 3 turns, I will delete you. You can still ask to rejoin in the future, though.

Personality: I'm easy-going and friendly unless provoked. I tend to be quite opinionated and stubborn.

My weakness is men. I can be brought to my knees, easily, by a sexy male.

Steve Ellen    
NAME: Stovus

AGE: Prime of Life

PLANET: Zgoob

INFO: I'm an inventor. I was married once but my wife and I went on a camping trip and she prematurely went into labor and hatched her brood right there in Zgoobian Desert Memorial Park, not a safe place to lay your eggs as we found out from bitter experience when her eggs were eaten by a Zgoobian predator. After that our marriage deteriorated and now we're divorced.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Prominent beak. Very shiny feather scales with an irridescent glow. I preen and wax every day.

PERSONALITY: Irritable, but with a sense of humor. I'm neither liked or disliked. On the other hand, people do notice me.

RELIGIOUS BELIEFS: God is a tiny microscopic being who knows almost nothing, yet if he whispers in your ear you will instantly do whatever he tells you.

PHOBIAS/FEARS: Sand rats and feather fleas. People who say "gnu" as three syllables.

STRENGTHS/WEAKNESSES: I know how to do advanced mathematics... but it gives me a headache.
