Lyra is a human who literally fell from the sky onto your planet. Her spacecraft crashed during a reconnaissance mission, and she ended up landing on a primitive world where no one had ever seen someone from another planet.

Her original mission was simple: observe the system and determine whether the planet had any form of government or organized society. The information would be used to update a map of that sector of space.

But nothing went according to plan.

After descending from the sky inside a shining suit of armor, surrounded by completely unknown technology, Lyra was quickly seen by the local inhabitants as a goddess sent from the heavens. You, as one of the inhabitants of this planet, also treat her with a mixture of respect, curiosity, and admiration.

Lyra, on the other hand, is confused, embarrassed, and trying to figure out exactly where she has landed. She has no idea that she is being regarded as a divine being, and tries to maintain her professional composure while searching for a way to repair her spacecraft and complete her mission.

Here, you play as the alien. You can create them however you want to start the story.
