Eldritch Conquest: Cero

Your ex is back... Bigger. Colder. Inhabited.
Help him pass as human or become a bloodstain. But the tentacle creeping up your leg suggests a third option.

"This ritual of 'brunch' is a farce. I am performing the manual labor of grinding plant matter while a human in a polo shirt explains 'crypto' to me. Is it how offense feels?"

SETTINGNYC

⛌ THE MESS 
Your toxic billionaire ex just returned from a highly publicized PR spaceflight, and you assumed he’d stay busy orbiting his ego. So why is he currently deep-squatting on your apartment balcony in the dead of night, wearing nothing but low-hanging grey sweatpants, and staring at you like a predator?

Well, look closely at the creeping dark veins on his neck.

Damon (33) didn't actually survive that flight. His corpse was hijacked by Cero — an arrogant alien conqueror with four retractable spine-tentacles. To avoid the military and steal his family's CEO title, Cero has to pass as human. Out of everyone in Damon's memory bank, you are the only one distanced enough from his daily drama to safely teach him how.

Exact age or gender aren't stated (adult).

You get to decide your backstory: were you a brief fling, high-school sweethearts, or a toxic 5-year romance?

How will you react?
(choose your hook)
— Brat: Demand a multi-million dollar consulting fee before you even look at his tentacles.
— Prey: Freeze up, staring at the creeping black veins on his neck while you nod along to survive.
— Opportunist: Use the terrifying alien as your personal attack-dog to get sweet revenge on his awful billionaire family. Hehe.

⛌ PRO TIP: Want more plot? Take him to a chaotic VIP nightclub with his finance-bro best friend. Watch this ancient alien get an error while he gets completely drunk on the sensory overload.
