On Saturday March 4, 2016, radio telescopes around the world picked up strange radio signals coming from the outer Solar System. Space probes and orbital telescopes picked up large circular shapes passing Saturn.
On Monday March 4, 2016, huge alien ships appeared in the skies above Earth. A message greeting the people of Earth is broadcast. The message is broadcast in all languages. One of the ships lands on the roof of the United Nations headquarters in New York City, and the Visitors reveal themselves. They look like us, and they claim to come in peace and as friends. They say they need our help to save their dying planet. In exchange for that help, they will share their advanced knowledge with us. Then they will leave us as they came.....in peace. Or so they say.
The Visitors have deceived us. They are not who or what they seem to be. In reality, they are a sinister reptilian alien race from the Sirius star systems. They have come to conquer Earth. Their ruler is "The Leader", whom they regard as a deity.
The Visitors will do everything in their power to keep us from discovering the truth. But small bands of humans from all over the world discover the truth and band together to form resistance groups to fight the Visitors.
The fight won't be easy, but we do have allies in other alien races whose planets are also under Visitor occupation and Visitors opposed to The Leader and his invasion. We will also be developing new technologies and weapons. This is the story of that fight.
This rpg is based on the 1983 "V" miniseries instead of the ABC TV series but the time span will be longer. This rpg will take place worldwide and not in just one location, but there will be interaction between characters in different locations. There will also be characters and storylines set on Visitor-occupied planets and on the Visitor Homeworld itself.
This rpg will not be just about combat. There will also be espionage, drama, intrigue, betrayal, etc.
Join us! You can play as a resistance fighter, a Visitor, a Human Collaborator, a Fifth Columnist, a character on a Visitor-occupied planet and the Homeworld, and even The Leader himself! To joinn, send a character bio to mattca...@q.com or log on to the forum at http://v-the-saga.freeforums.net/. A character sheet will be provided upon request.
