I had an awesome dream this morning. I'm still half asleep but I want to type it out before I forget any more of it.
I was some kind of large, warlike humanoid alien from some other planet, brought somehow to Earth.
I was an avid worshipper of some alien War God, and I quite happily allowed some army of humans to recruit me to help fight their enemies- although I think it was kept mainly a secret that I was an alien.
There were plenty of guns in this war, but also melee weapons. This dream was pretty schizo, I think it jumped back and forth between perspectives, settings and other plot points quite frequently- but I can't remember too much of that.
I just have vague, unsatisfying recollections of my interactions with various human comrades. At one point the human who had been mostly responsible for keeping track of me, like a minder or whatever, was killed in an ambush.
This enraged me and I killed a bunch of the enemies in this large, decrepit warehouse-thing, until coming to a place where too much of the wooden floor had fallen away for me to jump across and get at more of them.
The enemies up ahead hadn't seen me, so I peeked out of cover and managed to kill a couple of them with a silenced pistol.
Apparently the ones I killed were some kind of high-ranked, spiritual leaders/healers/nuns or something? I've no idea, but the enemy was upset when they realised they were dead. Didn't matter to my alien dream self, though, I was just pissed that they killed one of my new friends.
This is one of those dreams where I wish I could remember more, as it was both badass and a fascinating concept.
I vaguely remember trading my weapon for some sort of big spiky warhammer after that battle. And then at one point the dream shifted for a moment into some kind of weird fantasy larp, and then back again. Oh and there were some weird arena training fights, where me and a few others were taken to battle against some guru guy wearing a
ccoolie paddy hat. That was fun, from what I remember.
I wish I could remember the earlier parts, where I was first recruited to help these humans, discussing my homeworld and religion and doing my best to keep my origins secret from the rank-and-file. Also I wonder just how a warlike, savage alien-dude like myself got along with all these humans.
