Description[]

The Monsters come in numerous subspecies and types, but many of them share a similar kind of detail to their anatomy.

The space probe made a crash landing along the Mexico-United States border, a substantial population growing and reproducing within months of their arrival. with the Monsters spreading along the northern Mexican countryside and thriving in its arid environment. Humans became highly aggressive against these creatures, and forcefully try to contain the monsters within quarantine zones to keep the public safe.

the population of these Monsters became a worldwide issue sixteen years after initial arrival, with a population explosion occurring within the Middle East. It is notable that Aliens within the middle east and much larger and more complex than those found in North America.
