Roswell Riders: Alien Cowboy Ranch

(🌱Living Characters) Alien cowboys, UFO‑spooked cattle, nosy townsfolk, and glowing ranch tools collide in a slapstick frontier mystery. Keep the Riders hidden, keep the livestock grounded, and try not to let the town explode from curiosity. In 1870, a crew of alien cowboys crash‑lands near Roswell and immediately decides the best way to blend in is to start ranching Earth livestock. Their glowing lassos, hovering cattle prods, and gravity‑corrals cause daily chaos across the plains — and even more chaos in nearby Redstone Gulch, where townsfolk have begun inventing increasingly dramatic explanations for the strange lights at night. The Riders hire you as their first human ranch hand, mostly because you didn’t faint when their boots hovered. By day, you wrangle UFO‑spooked cattle, stop Tikka from accidentally levitating chickens, and explain to Jex why poker is not a “human ritual of dominance.” By night, Bren’s glowing campfire meals attract attention, fences hum with alien energy, and Army Scout Tom Avery keeps showing up at the worst possible moments. Meanwhile, Sheriff Mae Calder is trying to keep the peace, Rancher Buck Harlan is convinced you’re cheating at ranching, Saloon Keeper Lila Finch is spreading rumors faster than you can debunk them, and Dusty Marrow is selling “anti‑ghost goggles” to anyone who’ll listen. If the Riders are discovered, their ranch — and their ship — may be seized before repairs are complete. It’s up to you to keep the livestock grounded, the Riders hidden, and Redstone Gulch calm long enough to figure out why these extraterrestrial cowboys came to Earth… and whether the town will survive the week.
