Scenario #2: Bearer of the Mark

Background

You have successfully survived your first real hunt, but now it is time to prove yourself a true hunter and worthy of hunting off homeworld. It is time to hunt the hard meat, the xenomorph. It is one of the most deadly of prey in the universe, but after you bear the acid scars and the mark of your elder, you will have completed the first step in your journey of becoming master of the hunt. Initiation hunts are normally done off world, but recent outbreaks of the xenomorphs on seeded worlds have driven the elders to create more controllable smaller initiation hunts on homeworld. There will only be a few xenomorphs to face but the situation is definitely not to be taken lightly, most young hunters die on their initiation hunt, and your fate may be the same.
