FINAL LIGHT

PROTAGONISTS

ALKII

  • Full name: Alkii, Daughter of Sheivae; Messenger of the Truth
  • Age: 12 (nearly 13)
  • Sex: Female
  • Species: Paerillian
  • Occupation: Messenger of the Truth

The self proclaimed ‘Messenger of the Truth’ who has ventured off into the bustling cosmos on a mission to ‘return the galaxy to an age of knowledge and science’ or whatever that means, and get intelligent life back on its path to glory. However, being in a galaxy already plagued by countless problems mostly to do with social issues, petty disputes and zizzifruit shortages, Alkii is seen as nothing more than a loudmouthed little brat by everyone who is unfortunate enough to encounter her. This isn’t even mentioning the fact that the galaxy seems to be decaying at an alarming rate, with black holes and the like sprouting up seemingly wherever Alkii goes. But, she is determined to accomplish her righteous mission, and isn’t willing to let anyone or anything slow her down.

FLINT

  • Full name: Flint Ron Feathersworth
  • Age: 30
  • Sex: Male
  • Species: Human (homo sapiens)
  • Occupation: Living fossil

A strange ape-thing in a strange galaxy.. that is what the specimen who calls himself ‘Flint’ has found himself to be, ever since he was awoken by our dear Alkii from an inconceivably long sleep on an uninhabited planet. Having been booted from his primitive life as a mild mannered proofreader, this thespian endling has a lot to learn about the bustling cosmotropolis he now has to call home. (Because everywhere else is crumbling to pieces.)

OTHER IMPORTANT CHARACTERS

PITTIWICK

  • Full name: Pittiwick Gabvink Salvink
  • Age: 13
  • Sex: Male
  • Species: Lumbasgin
  • Occupation: Unlicensed inventor

A passionate but rather strange young alien boy who crafts gadgets and machinery of varying degrees of usefulness, to the dismay of everyone around him except his parents. Because they’re not here. Thanks to their absence, Pittiwick is able to fill the house with dozens upon dozens of bits of junk, functional or otherwise. Not to mention he eats, drinks and breathes junk food and doesn’t seem to have changed clothes in a year. He smells like ass. However, once you look past these incredibly off-putting physical aspects, you’ll find a chirpy young soul with an infectious ‘can-do’ attitude and a definite talent for constructing things, which Alkii may or may not have some use for in her journey across the cosmos.

MINOR CHARACTERS

PINKY AND MANLER

A couple of police officers on the hunt for the young Alkii, ever determined to put an end to her tirade of false intellectualism so that they don’t lose their police licenses. Pinky (the short brown one) is the de facto head of the two, mostly due to his outspoken nature and him having been on the force much longer than his dimwitted partner Manler (the tall pink one), who was pulled from an existence of blissful janitorial ignorance and thrown into the considerably more intense one of a galactic officer. It doesn’t seem to bother him much. He likes biscuits.

SURPRISE STICKMAN

(in 2.5 dimensions)

CLYDE

  • Full name: Clyde P. Anderson
  • Born: 03/01/2005
  • Plain of residence: The Stickfields

Our hapless central protagonist. Having just recently moved out of his mother’s place after winning the lottery (well, after the old woman in front of him just gave him the money out of pity) Clyde is rearing to make a life for himself. Though he has a tendency to be awkward and antisocial, Clyde has a good heart – it’s just buried under layers of stress and desperation. Just so long as everything goes the way it should, things should be fine for Clyde. But alas, life has made sure to make things as unpredictable and stressful as possible – as life frequently does – which in Clyde’s case means surprise (get it?) encounters with dragons, gargoyles, kitsunes, demons and gods, damsels and warlocks, and – perhaps the most daunting of them all – his overbearing older sister.

his sister, KACEY

  • Full name: Kacey K. Anderson
  • Born: 27/05/1999
  • Plain of residence: The Stickfields

Loud, athletic, and overwhelmingly friendly, Kacey could not be more polar opposite to her introverted younger brother Clyde. Out of complete sheer coincidence (not really), Kacey’s moved into the house parallel to Clyde’s around the exact same time, so she can continue to monito- I mean HOST A CONVENIENTLY LOCAL KARATE CLUB for kids, and perhaps put her great strength to an actual use.
