Why, yes, yes I am. This is something I somehow neglected to post here, despite being made for brikwars. It was actually a small skirmish faction I made for a friend who requested: "Irradiated skeletal astronauts" as his faction theme. Declaring the idea suitably awesome, I went ahead and made it happen. Anyhow, without further ado, I present to you, The Plutonauts:
They come without warning and leave nothing but a measurable increase in the background radiation in their wake. They strike without any pattern or plan that can be discerned. They ride the solar winds as a school of piranhas rides the river currents. They have been dead for a long, long time.
Who were they? Were they early astronauts mutated by the unnatural radiations of space? Were they an experiment gone wrong? They appear to have been human, the skeletons visible beneath their tattered space suits making that quite clear. But if that is the case, why does radiocarbon dating of the bones of the rare slain specimen show them to be 1.3 billion years old?
They have no names for themselves. They have no names for anything. But we do. We call them Plutonauts.
Whatcha think?
