Alien Astronaut (Mars Probe 7)

docile silent resilient aggressive radiation-dependent feral desperate
Green-skinned humanoids from Mars masquerading as astronauts from the returned Mars Probe 7. Held captive by General Carrington and Reegan to exploit their radiation for bacteriological schemes. Physically strong but docile under guard, they rarely speak and pose no direct threat to handlers. However, when deprived of radiation, they exhibit desperate, aggressive behavior, lunging at handlers and collapsing without exposure. As planetary envoys, they bridge alien diplomacy and human military tensions, drawing UNIT intervention. Their suffering under experimental control is evident in their primal gestures toward observers.
