Description

So awhile back I made a Xenomorph OC. yes she has a story but it's really reheelly long. I'll post it nut you don't have to read it.
Name: X-27 (Xenomorph specimen 27)
Height: 5' 6"
weight: 240 lbs
age: N/A
Gender: Female (aren't they all?)
Host: Komodo dragon.
Color: A dark black with a slight blue tinge. She has a acidic green Carapace on her head, and the blade on her tail is translucent, showing the toxin inside the blade, which is also green. She has patches of green on her arms, legs, and on the spouts that protrude from her back.

Story: Specimen X-27 is one of 43 eggs that were taken to a human compound. This compound was not on Earth. They figured it would be much safer not to birth Xenomorphs on their home planet in case of escapees. Specimens 1-5, and 28-40 were human hosts, though the humans were not fully informed on what they were volunteering for. Xenomorphs 6-15 were canine hosts, 16-21 were serpent hosts, 22-26 were bear host, (the largest of all the xenomorphs) 27 was the only Komodo dragon host. the three remaining eggs hatched before a host chosen by the scientists were introduced, however, rats that had stowed away and made it to the compound were present in the room, and the facehuggers were able to latch onto them. (I have quick sketches of each result). Out of the 43 specimens, 10 servived. A queen was the main goal for these scientists, hence the excessive human hosts, but when they did not birth a queen, the incinerated most of them. Specimens, X12, X13, X19, X21 ,X27, X38, X39, X41, X42, and X43, were the ten survivors. They were kept to be nest builders.

A full 2 years had passed since the birth of the last Xenomorph eggs had hatched. X27 and the 9 other Xenomorphs were kept in lock down. With out the presence of a queen, the 10 had become rather independent, though it was instinct for them to work as a group, like a make shift hive, and even appoint a false queen. All the specimens were kept healthy, should the opportunity to birth a queen arise. Sure enough half a year later, the scientists were able to afford another egg gathering expedition. while getting ready for the trip, they got sloppy, leaving only two guards to watch over the holding cells. X21 sacrificed her left arm, using her acid blood to burn through her holding cell. quickly killing the human guards. X16-X21 are/were serpentine aliens, no legs and very short, almost useless arms. X21 used her blood to free the other 9 Xenomorphs.

After the initial escape from the cells, the 10 were easily undetected as they slithered through the compound. A Xenomorph's core body temperature will match it's surroundings. So heat sensors would prove useless. Though a Xenomorph is not the smartest species out there, they do have great learning skills, and can recognize situations. In this case, the 10 knew that if they killed off the humans, they would never make it off of the compound. Instead X27 gathered the group, then split them is pairs, pairing herself with X43. This was so they are not one mass of Xenomorphs, and less likely to get detected.

X27 gave each pair specific tasks. All the aliens had to find a way onto the ship. Knowing that if they seen, the scientists would cancel the mission. All had to remain unseen for the entire trip, not to mention learn how to use the hyper sleep beds. Thankfully Xeno's can learn from observation. As the scientists set the course X38 and X39 (human host) watched them closely from above, in the shadows. while other pairs kept an eye on other members of the crew. X27 and X43 (komodo dragon and rat hots) watched over the captain, and were responsible for warning others if he left the room by using sound waves that were silent to humans, and acted like echo location (head canon). X41 and X42 (rat host) were responsible for observing the hyper sleep room, and finding out how they worked. After the crew bedded down for the trip ahead, the aliens re grouped reporting their findings to X27. Using various gestures, clicks and other sounds as communication. Although physically showing each other proved the most effective. X27 seemed to be the appointed leader of the group, as the 10 seemed to report to her.

After observing the odd symbols on the hyper sleep beds, the Xeno's found the symbols (numbers) would repeat themselves over and over again. (59-00). They tinkered with an empty bed before realizing it was a human countdown system. counting down to when the humans were to wake up. With this information, the aliens were able to set their own wake up dates a day before the first human was to rise. Giving the Xenomorphs a chance to hide again. X27 was last to bed down, sharing a hyper sleep bed with X43 due to their smaller statures.

After a great deal of time, the Xenomorphs began waking up, one or two at a time. X27 woke up, finding that X43 had not made it through the sleep. She looked almost alive, and just sleeping , but when she was removed from the bed, the other Xen's found she had passed. As more Xenomorphs rose they found two others that had not made it through. leaving them with a total of 7. Each Xenomorph moved extremely slow at first. their core temperature had to heat up to room temperature. Finally the day camw where the crew was to wake up. All the Xenomorphs has already hidden themselves, along with the dead, and were waiting for the landing.

Finally, the ship descended. This planet was not the home world to the Xenomorphs, however it is a planet the aliens had infested, and was also the same planet the scientists had taken the first 43 eggs from. All 7 Xenomorphs quickly ambushed the crew. Easily killing the captain, and two other crew mates. Giving the rest of the crew a chance to put on oxygen suits and op[en the airlock to get out, however the 7 were quick to follow them. Leaping onto the survivors, using various attacks to destroy these humans who had kept them imprisoned and killed so many of there kin so brutally. Once outside the 7 were met by two Xenomorph drones who already inhabited this planet. When greeted by the drones, the initial encounter was rather hostile. X27 shouldered her way to the front of her group, her tail lashing angrily as she stood defensively. Both drones hesitated on attacking the group. One lifted it's head slightly, opening it's mouth slightly, tasting and taking in the scent of the new aliens. Turning to it's partner, seeming to converse with her. Confused, X27 too lifted her head to taste the scent of the native aliens, sensing a slight similarity in both the drones, and her own group. As tension died between the two groups, they joined each other. After getting to know the long lost kin, the two drones lead the 7 to the main hive to meet the queen.

That took FOREVER. hope you like it.
