Aliens
From AEWiki
Random brainstorming thoughts about aliens . . .
- Stereotypical personality: Obviously piratelike or awkward / blank, intelligent, technical, oblivious (with positive or negative side effects -- can explain more later)
- Aliens are likely the most awkward pirates. They've sorted out the basic pirate persona but don't have to be much more complicated than that. This may make them a good option for less expressive or "beginner" players of a certain stripe. (Nat, we should chat about what I mean by this.)
- Aliens don't have to be from the same planet. In fact, they could be from planets which are cold to one another, or antagonistic. If so, it should be clear that they "can't do much about their antagonism on this pitiful planet" or some such, letting the players have fun with being obnoxious with one another or threatening without actually plotting harm to the other character.
- This might be the one group that has any unusual tech, if we want any in the game.
- Aliens could possibly want the dragon egg because it could power their ship to take them back to the Mother Planet. Should they band together, they could choose to take one ship and effectively drop the other aliens off at their respective planets.
