Characters

Ralf is the "Charlie Brown" of alien invaders. Ralf was hired by the TransGalactic Council to destroy the Earth. What they didn't know was that he's actually just a really nice guy and kind of a procrastinator. Once on Earth, Ralf finds himself in debt and with a crush, as he is chased by a giant assassin bug... all while stumbling into a love triangle as Earth's survival balances precariously on his conscience.

With Lexi, everything is either an earth shattering emergency or an excuse to play dress-up. Lexi definately feels most at home in a crisis situation where she is quick to take command. Now her moment of glory has finally come with an epic threat laid at her feet. But she soon realizes that that no one will listen to her. Undaunted, she now realizes that she alone must save the world, even if it means making friends with the enemy.

Gothra is a very old battleship originally built by the Noropian Gorts for planetary invasion. She has a long and glorious history that ended when the Galactic Council exploited a Gort weakness and she was forced into retirement where she was used as a war museum. Her A.I. was never decommissioned and still craves a little action, but she serves her Captain first and above all else.

Thane “the harbinger of doom” walks around New York City with his sandwich signs attempting to warn the populace of the alien apocalypse to come. He is generally ignored and occasionally despised but he is definitely on a mission. The real question arises, “is Thane as crazy as everyone thinks he is?”

Kaiser is about as manly a man as you will find anywhere. Kaiser’s past is spotty at best and rumors that he was a “strong man champion” and a member of the “Hell’s Angels” have yet to be refuted. He spent his youth bucking the system and fighting “the man”, unfortunately for Kaiser these things always catch up with you. Kaiser took personal inventory and has been trying to turn his life around. Looking to redeem his misspent youth he’s decided to take Ralf under his wing and make a man out of him. Ralf really doesn’t want to be a man, but feels he must honor this “chief-like” human, plus Kaiser’s bigger than he is.

Instiqs are a race of insectoids that were cyberised by the Trans Galactic Council to battle their dreaded foe the Noropian Gorts. The Council miscalculated and the cybernetics enhanced them so much that they became sentient and developed their own organic enhancements. Instiqs usually keep to themselves on their hive planets, unless of course you disturb their nest by say… accidentally destroying their sun like the Xyoans (Ralf’s people) did. The Instiqs and many other races tend to hold a grudge about these things and have standing bounties for anyone who can eliminate a “Destroyer”.

This “technically non-existent” branch of the government is responsible for tracking down and covering up alien and UFO events as well as keeping tabs on the aliens who choose to remain here. Ever since Ralf arrived this group has been running in circles trying to catch up with him and get him in custody as he manages to inadvertently undermine their diplomatic work.

Estelle is a 'Hospitality Class", free range, A.I. that just seems to really have it in for poor Ralf.

Bryon is the lively sidekick of Kaiser. He's an upbeat, adrenaline junkie from Australia who likes fast cars, motorcycles, and stories of legendary feats... both of which Kaiser is happy to supply. He's taken a liking to Ralf and treats him as he would a little brother.

Mai is an ambitious astronomy student who dreams of contacting and colonizing far away planets. Although Ralf has a terrible crush on her, she fails to see him as the answer to her dreams. Instead, she sees Ralf as a nerdy "puppy dog" that she humors from time to time.

Erin is the part time waitress at the "Donut Hole". She offers Ralf kindness and a guileless feminine perspective... but, she hasn't told Ralf everything.

Ray is a loathsomely opportunistic creature feeding his vices off the inattention of others. However, his sixth sense has put him in the sphere of Ralf, where the gears of cunning and treachery really begin to turn.

Gail is an older widow and the proprietor of the "Donut Hole", the local coffee and donut dive. She is also Erin's boss and offers a quiet listening ear, pointed advice and minimum wage.

The Tassili is embodiment of Xyo's cosmic nexus. To most, he is purely legend and only a precious few have ever seen him. He exists beyond time and space, but from time to time he enlists a herald to warn wayward civilizations that the course they have chosen will lead to their ultimate destruction. In the 88th flux cycle of the heart of Xyo, the Tassili chose Ralf.

Evette is Lexi's mom and the lovingly taunting wife of Gabe Carter. She met Gabe while she was studying physical fitness and therapy in college. She and Gabe were eagerly married soon after and she strives to be her daughter's best friend.

Lexi's loving and protective father, whom she is compelled to impress. Gabe is a wisely cautious, spiritual person and takes his position as the anchor of the family quite seriously.

Beth is the geriatric offspring of the Cochrane clan (and Erin's little sister). Beth is an agent of chaos in Lexi's life. Beth may seem to live in a world of her own, but everyone else is living in it.

Officer Bruce is the local recruit and unfortunately issues that involve his temper are starting to rear their head. Ralf is intimidated by authority and this guy is more than happy to lord it over him and there's one other complication...

Sergeant Harris is the officer charged with showing Bruce the ropes, but his patience with Bruce's bad behavior is running short.

Flint is the local animal control officer who has aspirations of becoming one of the Men in Black. He finds it easy to talk to Ralf, but fails to see him for what he is.

Defender is a real super hero with secret government origins, at least... that's what his comic books say. Lexi is one of his few super-fans since he hasn't been seen or heard from in some time. Lexi holds out hope that he will return and stop Ralf's diabolical plan, and then she and Defender can be best friends.

Senator Almanac is the head of the committee charged with intergalactic peace keeping. His people are known as "Creedonites" and are known for opulent living and his position certainly grants him considerable access.

Ralf's mother on Xyo. Ralf is told that she was consumed by the flames of Xyo during a purification rite when he was still very young.

Ralf's Dad. He flees Xyo while Ralf is in suspended animation... for some reason.

Buzz is the nefariously psychotic sidekick of Ray. It's wise to avoid eye contact  if you see him, unfortunately you can never really be sure if you are or aren't.

Azrael is a transient bounty hunter who blows into the local biker bar from time to time. His past is a rumor and his reputation is sinister. Strangely, he has some kind of tie to Lexi's father.

Gavin is the son of a neurotic hypochondriac and meets ralf in the local hospital. He's very intellegent, but he's working through a few things.

XIX'eese is the founder of Ralf's home Xyo. While the construct that orbited the cosmic nexus had been visited before him, he was the first to survive in recent history and contributed to the structures growth and its melting pot civilization.

Officer Torres is a New York City police man who helps locate and "rescue" Lexi when she gets separated from her Dad at a comic convention.

As the local 911 operator and police dispatcher, this lady gets her share of local news and torrid stories.

Zorpha is the hostess of an entertainment show in the ring city of Xyo. Whether her portrayal is accurate is debatable since she just shows up in Ralf's day dreaming to interview him.
