The listener is a space explorer, using his starship to map out unknown reaches of space. He receives a distress signal from another ship, and travels over to find the cause of the distress signal. When he finds the ship it is abandoned, and he boards the vessel to find out more. This is where he finds the alien. As far as I envisioned it, she looks vaguely humanoid, but not human-like. She is essentially the perfect lifeform, intelligent and powerful, being able to absorb and use DNA from other species to shapeshift and adapt to any situation thrown her way. The crew of the ship she was previously on wasn’t good enough to absorb in her opinion, so she killed them and put up the distress signal, in the hopes someone with better potential would come her way, and it turns out the listener is just what she’s looking for…
