I'm going to express tentative interest. I can join one more roleplay (to a total of three), but whether or not this is the right one depends on how often it updates. (I'm trying to only join roleplays that require weekly or twice-a-week in-character posts as my university studies may get crunchy.)

As for the type of aliens, assuming I'm able to join... well... I'll just post some pictures that gave me inspiration.
