    Since I'm a Floran, I'd probably stab everything in sight.

    I would, in fact, not listen to strange voices from ancient gateways, to then join forces with an older woman whom after about 3 minutes of talking, I know well enough to save the universe with.

    Call me crazy, but I just think she's lonely and looking for someone to talk to...

    yeah funny part is you instantly hop onto her opinion helping her to save the word, but what if the ruin is actually the good guy? There not even some evidences in the story about the ruin being bad, someone just said so, and we suddenly all believe it. And the riun can surely not be so amazinly evil and powerful when a single person can mow it down just by some guns and melee weapons. Something smells at this story and it's not only the giant dead space squid.

    Party because I'd finally escaped Earth and it's stupidity!... Then cry because I'm in the core of a moon and the pretty Erchius ghosts think I look delicious. I'd still take it.

    The Ruin destroyed Earth, and with it nearly drove an entire sapient species extinct, and destroyed pretty much the only centralised government in the Mid-Milky Way.
    I'd say that's pretty villainous.

    As far as what I'd do as my character, probably just do what I usually have them do: explore the stars, kill Occasus cultists, Miniknog, anyone who started something and find and loot everything as an interstellar space cowboy.
    Not too mention owning a giant space train filled with loyal, swarthy crew (two of whom keep sending heart emotes my way :nuruwink:), a nice farming colony, and the respect of a fledgling New Protectorate.
    Pretty much my own Outer Heaven, I suppose.

    I would have to deal with the fact that I just disappeared from the year 2016 altogether, though. Can we e-mail to the past at all?

    I'd lock, load, and become the newer, funner Ruin! Who needs planets when you can have all of space? >: D

    I'd be a 3/4 foot tall fluffy Raptor.

    I have no idea what I'd do.

    I mean, it'd be awesome, but also hazardous to my health. I'd have to be cold at all times.

    That would be a problem....

    But, really, I wouldn't do much different.

    I'd be able to run faster, so there's that. (But would I use it often? Not too often, no..)

    Would I gain all the knowledge an Extraterrestrial would have?

    In that case, I'd give Humanity highly-advanced spaceships. That'd be fun.

    (And then I'd get to be a Raptor.

    In space.

    yes

    panic, because being the captain of a crew and the mayor of a space colony is too much for me.

    then again, no one said i had to lead it well, and i do have a nice underground bunker with a personal teleporter and a steady food source. that'll do!

    I'd look for a way to artificially create Novakid brands because, being one of them, I might eventually end up like the guy in the movie Memento.

    Probably flip the heck out at suddenly being turned into a humanoid plant with boobs.

    Then I'd be doing some good ol' fashioned cowering in the corner.

    After about 3 hours of doing that I'd probably slowly come to terms with the fact that I have essentially just lost my identity and will now have to live in a strange universe full of Cultists and unspeakable horrors while I have no combat experience whatsoever and very little social skills.

    I'd probably only last a few weeks at most, unless we can respawn.

    I looked at this a lot darker than most others did.

    This, this is me if I was Sylva or Acera.
    Sylva:
    Bully probably tassste like apex butt.

    But this is me at first. Especially the first sentence, I would too be personally be freaking out for a while. But hey, at least I'm my favorite race, so that's a bonus! At least I never have to worry about brushing my hair every day. I wonder what an Avian tastes like, woops, sorry Avians, I recently had KFC for dinner. I wonder what the skin of a floran feels like, is fuzzy like peaches or rough like grass?

    Oh and that makes it evil? because wedo not slaughter millions of chickens per year.
    Also, wa sit the same ruin? I saw giant tentacls at eath grabbign aroun entire houses. While the squid planet had only smallr ones. How can one thing destroy an entire planet yte get handbashed by a single person? Does that mean NO ONE at earth had a ship or anythign with a proper gun? Sorry that logic still smells.

    And what did it destroy? pretty much the only centralised gouvernment that establishes space prisons around the ENTIRE galaxy. On an abstarcted level of observation, mankind kinda acts like what every sci fi is selling us as the evil spreading pest.

    And you description is equally sad, You are basically just a space raider who kills people for having another religion. GG at leats you are not a human.
