'Citizens of the Planet Earth, We bring you Greetings, and we come
in peace' was their greetings when they landed... They Lied.

 'The Visitors are not our Friends! They've come to rape our Planet
and kill us! They are not who they appear to be!' was the Resistance
call.

 In October of 2001, the Visitor Motherships arrived over the cities
of Earth, 50 in all. They claimed to have arrived intending peace,
but they lied. They came to take us prisioner and to rob the planet
of the resources. By the end of Novemeber, they controlled the 
planet. Lucky for the Earth, a Resistance was able to form, and beat 
them with the Red Dust.

 After a full year, they came back, as the Dust wasn't completely 
effective, and now, can not be released again for enviornmental and 
Health reasons. The warmer regions are back under Visitor Control, 
all except LA, thanks to a deal brokered between the Visitors and 
Science Frontiers, who has taken over the LA Government. That was 6 
months ago. Now the Resistance is in hiding, for the most part, 
looking for a way to cause the Visitors troubles.

V: The Visitors Return is a MUSH that allows you to take on the role
of a Great Resistance Fighter, or an Evil Reptillian Visitor. 
Feature Characters from the NBC Mini-Series and Television Series 
are available for you to play. 

V: The Visitors Return is an online roleplaying game based partially
on the original mini-series V which aired in the mid 1980's. The 
premise was simple. AHumanoid appearing aliens came to Earth, 
pretending to be our friends. They said that they wanted friendship 
and access to some of our more readily available resources (ie: 
water) and in return they would give us technology and their 
gratitude. 

In actuality these peaceful Visitors were actually after something 
more sinister. Humans. As Food. Disguised under human looking masks 
and fake flesh, the aliens were really members of a warlike and very 
hungry reptilian species. 

Unlike the Mini-Series and Television Series, the exact dates have 
been updated and pushed ahead roughly 15 years so the invasion place 
in the 2000's instead of the 1980's. Besides that shift, we try to 
remain as faithful as possible to the ideal of V and it's events and 
characters despite any "cosmetic" differences the shift in time 
creates.
