VARIANTS
Little Green Martian: Some grays have yellow yes, green skin, pointy elf-like ears, and two antenna sticking out from their foreheads. Sometimes called "little green men" or "martians," these grays are far more aggressive, territorial, and outright hostile towards other races, including the non-green grays. They do not have the Psychic Aptitude powers as traditional grays but instead have Exotic Weapon Proficiency for "gray" and "martian" weapons. Most carry one or two ray guns with them and prefer to shoot first and ask questions never.
