The Guest
The "The Guest" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
The Guest

The appearance of a building-sized, tentacled monstrosity in the midst of … has thrown the capital into disarray. The creature seems as perplexed as we are by its sudden appearance, and has allowed itself to be restrained without resistance. We suspect the creature to be of alien nature, but we can't discount the possibility of it being an unknown species native to our world. After all, no alien ship has been detected in orbit. The creature - codenamed The Guest - materialized out of nowhere, seemingly unassisted by technology. Our confusing (and confused) visitor is currently being held in one of our research facilities.
