A crop farmer living on the edge of Britain has been looking to speak with the Lord of the realm, Lord British. One afternoon, while the farmer was tending to the western edge of his crop in the last rays of that day’s light, he spots the King riding back from the valley of the Britain Passage.
The farmer approaches Lord British and says, "Sire, I have made very disturbing observations here on the outer bounds of the city."
Lord British replies, "Get out of my way, I must return home.”
"But sire this is of imminent importance!”
The king grudgingly says, “Very well, but make haste.”
“Few nights ago when I was laying to rest, there was an unusual racket from the direction of my harvest silo. I grabbed a lamp and went out to find the origin of the racket, but all I found was the outer door of the silo was cracked open, and the lock had been discarded on the ground aside. I shut the door and replaced the lock, making sure it was secure.
As I was returning, I thought I heard a noise like a coyote in my corn field, so, in defense of my hens, I went and got a pitchfork from the barn and went to address the noise.
While wandering through the field towards the hennery a creature dashed in front of me seemingly out of nowhere, stopping for a mere moment. It then darted off, traveling more quickly than anything I have ever witnessed. From a glance, I could see that the creature’s skin was a kind of luminous dark green hue and from its gaze I could see great evil inhabited it’s soul. I returned home shortly, very shaken by my experience, and I could not sleep.
The next day as I went to continue with my usual harvesting routine, I discovered that in my corn crops, a pattern had been created with the over-laying of many corn stalks. I was very frightened by this, and I decided to verify my encounters of that previous night. I went that night and waited in the field with my pitchfork, nervously doubting that I would encounter this creature again. After a while I became distracted with the intricate pattern that had been left if the field, but something rustled in the distance soon after, and as I looked up, the unusual looking creature was directly in front of me. I could see that the creature was wearing a terrible looking mask of some sort that struck me with fear. I felt frozen and chilled and the need to run, but I could not. I managed to ask what he was here for, and what he wanted, but for a while all he did was stare. Eventually, he dropped some odd looking parchment in front of me on the ground and motioned me to examine it.
I picked up the parchment and found that it read, “The Gods of outer worlds will strike terror and chaos down upon these lands.” As I looked up to reply, the creature had vanished.
“I have addressed you to explain my observations and that I believe Britannia is in danger of these alien beings.”
Lord British replies, “HA! Outlandish! I have never heard such a thing as preposterous as this.”
The farmer exclaimed, “Sire, please! You wil….” The farmer’s voice trailed off and then changed, suddenly sounding like that of a choking mad man. He said, “The people of this land and the one named British will suffer ceaselessly,” and collapsed before the King.

Yes, we realize it's out of the ordinary and completely original, but that's why we decided to make it. I would obviously need a name change to Phobos if it is accepted. Deimos and I will run the guild as Co-owners.
When you think about it, Aliens in mid-evil times isn't actually so far-off. What about the theories of Aliens teaching the Aztecs and Egyptians how to build pyramids eh? It's Deimos' story line and I thought it was pretty cool and very original. Hope you liked it.
*Items*
-Old Copper colored skin [the dark green hue mentioned]. This is close we think to what most people view as the color of an alien.
-Old Copper colored Tribal Mask. This is more of an alien-looking face that we must have on at all times.
-Black Diamond-colored (Or simply dark colored) Shrouds. Now, we know this is asked by many guilds, but I think our RP has an actual purpose behind the shrouds similar to that of vampire. As an alien, I'm sure you would not want to be traveling around an old mid-evil town with your luminous green skin averting everyones gaze, so we ask for these to hide our skin as well as possible. The shrouds would be optional outside of town, but absolutely have to be worn in town [order towns].
