Authors Note: This is another creature design post, but it's gonna be different, in that these creatures/characters may resemble something from an alien movie rather than a monster movie. Also I may make these creatures/characters more supernatural than scientific.
Disclaimer: Alvin and the chipmunks belongs to Ross B. and Fox Studios, and the apparent third "Ultimate" installation will belong to MetalMunk15.
Creature Design: J-Rod.
J-Rod is an Extraterrestrial Scientist working at the human facility of Area 51, helping to translate the alien language to English, and was in charge with the reverse engineering of Alien spacecraft with human technology. As a species, he's what's referred to as a basic Grey Alien, and has the characteristic large head, large shiny black almond shaped eyes, no ears except for what look like holes in the sides of his head, and two holes for a nose. His mouth is little more than a small slit on his face, and only moves when he is eating (his favorite food amazingly being tacos and hotdogs, his favorite drink being ginger ale), and when he speaks, his voice sounding a little bit high pitched for his size, which is about half the height of Dave Seville.
His skin is a grey color, and his hands have only four digits, three fingers and a thumb on each hand, his feet only having two big toes, and his limbs are thin, but considering he can use telekinesis like it was second nature, he doesn't really have to use any muscle. Along with telekinesis, J-Rod has the ability of telepathy, allowing him to read people's thoughts, send messages directly to other people's minds, and even take control of other people (which he only used to do as a mean of communication before learning English).
For his size, J-Rod is actually about 92 years old in human years, even though in his years he is barely in his twenties. For clothing, J-Rod wears a full body black suit with an "Area 51" clearance badge on his chest, and his feet, hands and head are the only appendages not covered. Personality wise, J-Rod is an odd mix between an extremely wise man and a very playful child, when not working on engineering he can be found playing with various human toys, and a couple that come from his home planet. Although J-Rod is normally a rather happy fellow, if you make him any bit mad he can be dangerous, telekinetically throwing anything ranging from a ball to an armored tank like it was weightless at the one who made him mad (though he is working on anger management for this), and the mere mentioning of Roswell will send J-Rod into a saddened state of mind, and in this state he can accidentally "share" his feelings with people in his range, making others feel his personal sadness with him.
An odd trait this grey guy has is that he can't stand any sort of sweets like candy and chocolate, finding them to be absolutely disgusting (though he has come to the understanding of how humans love them). A sweet treat he actually likes, though, is apple pie, often seen with a slice whenever it's available or whenever he's allowed outside the facility and into the nearby town (everyone of which has been sworn to secrecy of the extraterrestrial's existence).
Although J-Rod has a massive intelligence, he is extremely curious over human culture and interactions, and it has gotten to the point of him taking notes on an iPad of what he sees humans doing on a daily basis. His iPad isn't even from the Apple Company, but something he pieced together from a schematic and various alien components he had available to him, and he does not like anyone else to touch it…at all.
For interactions, J-Rod will often get someone's attention by means of a "telekinetic poke" to the one in question, then if that doesn't work, he will chase after them and literally drag them to his project. On a more personal note, J-Rod merely has close friends, nothing else…he doesn't like the "messiness" of what a romantic situation brings.
Well, how was this first character? Let me know in the comment/reviews by clicking the "Review" doobly doo below.
