Low-fantasy D&D aliens? (dice.camp)

Low-fantasy D&D aliens?@rpg I want to stick aliens 👽🛸 into my next D&D campaign. My idea is to have little grey men show up in a flying saucer and abduct the party. However, I'm worried that this is too comprehensible for the average #DnD character. I want the PCs to be confused, but not the players! What's the weirdest alien you've ever thrown at your D&D party?Side note, I also want to give the baddies #mechs. How do I mechanically handle this? #DM #dming #ttrpg #scifi #fantasy #mech

@Legit_Spaghetti @rpg You actually gave me a different great idea. In my setting, we have all the normal fantasy stuff, but the elves are robots who often modify their bodies to do stuff like have plasma cannons hidden in their arms or directly interface with the GPS satellites. I think something like the Borg would be a great way to handle half-elves.
