Constant Vigilance #4: Friday the 3rd, Morning. Serenity Cove.

Today, the class meets on the beach, to accomadate the student who has a bit of an aquatic problem at the moment. The Doctor set out beach blanket and towels, and has hauled the holoprojector out on a cart.

"Pass forward your requests I asked for, thank you. As I let you know, we're switching things around a bit. Vampires and werewolves will be at a later date. Today is simply 'Close Encounters of the Unattractive Kind'. Now, please remember, that it's not so much that I find these species particularly unpleasant, it's just we might as well show some of the more unsavory aliens out in the world. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that. I'll be taking questions today, but no lecturing today. It's called close encounters for a reason. You'll be talking to the projections, trying to gather what you can from them. Ask them whatever. Remember they can't actually hurt you, but please only antagonize them if you're being terribly clever about it. There is no assignment for next week. Time for you all to put on your 'first contact' thinking caps. The projector will be sending out three different aliens. Talk to at least one, please."

The Doctor smiled, then turned on the projector. Three forms appeared...

This had been a tough one. Vampires or zombies? Vampires or zombies?

Biochemically manipulated persons induced into animalistic state.

Okay, so who knew if he knew anything about that? Nadia remembered enough from her dreams to want to know what she could.

I'm keen to learn more about Werewolves but if we're going to cover that already, I'd like to know what you know about the Wild Sponk.

Conner had done a little research in the Ranger archives, just to see if the Doctor could trump this one.

Know anything about an armadillo that turns itself into a giant hostile armored soccer ball (http://www.rovang.org/wg/mmprs1monsters.htm#soccadillo)?

Sakurazaki was a little reluctant to go with her first instinct, but this was an opprotunity she couldn't pass up. The Shinmei Ryuu wouldn't tell her much. Maybe the Doctor could.

Demons, particularly of the crow variety. Any information on bird-specific tribes would be helpful. If you could. Thank you. If not demons, maybe golems, not of a paper variety. I know about the paper ones pretty well.

Cyborgs, particularly time-travelling ones. Artificial intelligence. Sentient binary life.

Willow had thought very hard about this one. Sure, there were good odds that, like the beavers, she was going to get information that wasn't quite as pertinent, but also much like the beavers she figured it couldn't hurt to try.

So her handed in request was:

I'd like to know more about centaurs, please.

I'd like to learn more about the aliens you've dealt with in Roswell.

Jack had handwavily been told about the assignment, seeing as he was away last week.

I wouldn't mind knowing something about shapeshifters. Not werewolves, but aliens who can alter their appearance. Or make people think they've altered their appearance. Either way would be interesting.

Do you know anything about creatures that feed on the life force of humans?

Cedric thinks for a moment before deciding to just try.

Dementors.

And that's all he writes.

Alternate universes. Or time paradoxes.

Yeah, she's a dork.

Who knew? It might be interesting.

Inspired by last night's frozen pool excursion, Stark decided to ask about a Fandom monster. Well, it may be a Fandom monster, or they might be other places too. Hence the asking.

What do you know about snow monsters? The kind made out of snow?
