XCOM: The Hunt Begins

Reader mode
[X] Human: You're a human, on a mission to bring ADVENT to their knees.

Being a Hunter means we'd need to be in CLOSE RANGE?!?!
No thank you. Human it is.
 
[X] Hunter: You are an intergalactic hunter, not from this world, and you are on the hunt.

I cannot believe human is doing as well as it is.

I would imagine it's about familiarity to being human, as opposed to being an entirely different species.

Though I'm not too sure how many quests on the site feature Predators in the first place.

This has been the most tied voting I have seen in some time.

I'd like to take this opportunity to ask of you: Why are you voting for the species that you are? What makes you want to be a human over a Predator? Or Predator over a human?

Either way, I do have the next update ready regardless of who wins.

My reason for voting human is we get more flexibility in options and skills. With the Hunter it will do what it always does best hunting. We'll probably won't get the support we need as a hunter. Plus the definition of Predator is attacking anything that's weaker than itself.

Predator. Because, frankly, it is something different than the usual X-Com quest clones.
 
I'll be giving this until 3:00 P.M. EST, and then closing to vote and moving into character selection.
 
I voted for human because I like humans being able to liberate themselves, or at least get some vengeance. Also more options for non combat play. That I haven't played x-com or a x-com quest also may factor into it since I wouldn't be tired of playing as humans.
 
We have tied up again at the voting deadline. I'll be extending the vote until the tie is broken, or until 3:30 P.M. In the event that the vote is not broken, I shall be rolling a die through the thread tools. If it lands on odd, it will be for human, and even will be for Predator.

I know basically nothing about Predators and prefer to stick with things that I know. That aside however, it just feels... more right for humans to boot ADVENT off of Earth.

    • [ ] Human: You're a human, on a mission to bring ADVENT to their knees.

    Character Selection​

    You are human. Resilient. Strong. Hellbent on survival first, and bringing down ADVENT second.

    We know what you are, but we do not know who you are.

    Who are you?


    [ ] Olivia Ripley. Resourceful. Sharp-witted. Determined. Apt descriptions of the young Olivia Ripley, a survivor just outside of ADVENT's control. Ripley has lived her entire life this way, just out of reach of ADVENT, which is where she intends to stay.

    While not truly a soldier, Ripley is much more of a survivor and has been working with a resistance cell just outside of what used to be Los Angelos. She's grown used to dodging ADVENT Patrols, as well as the Lost.

    Now, with rumors of XCOM's return on the horizon being ever more prominent, Ripley is hesitant to believe whether or not XCOM can be all that effective against ADVENT, having lost the first time around.



    [] William Connor. Charismatic. Brave. Unyielding. These words are a few of the many that could be used to describe William. For his entire life, he's fought back against ADVENT with everything he has. Despite the losses, each small victory only adds more fuel to the fire in his heart against the alien overlords. He is a fighter, to the very core.

    Having grown up in a resistance cell in the remains of what was once Los Angelos, Connor has become quite capable of moving through debris and the Lost with ease and safety. He's grown accustomed to using what weapons he does have against ADVENT whenever a fight occurs and is smart enough to know never to pick up a weapon off of a dead ADVENT soldier.

    Now that he's heard that XCOM may once again be on the rise, Connor is hopeful, yet hesitant. He knows that the aliens cannot be brought down by a single man, but he's unsure if he'd be willing to leave his allies here behind.

    -----------------------------

    No matter who wins the vote, both characters are canon and will be in the quest.
