Character profiles.

    by: Scifiwizard Retired Author IconMail Icon
Megan Connors
14 years old
5'4'' 116 lbs.
Tall and slender but well built with blond hair and blue eyes.

Megan is a kind hearted tomboy with a love for electronics and mechanics. She is athletic but has little interest in sports, though her friends try to convince her to try out for them. She will back up her friends in a pinch but prefers to handle her own problems unless they prove to be too much for her. It is believed by some that everything has an aura, a spirit; cities, towns, and machines are no exception. Megan has the power to 'connect' with these auras and influence them. Machines react to her emotional state, protect her within the confines of their predesignated abilities. Cars move on their own to block pursuers, their auras giving them a 'life' of their own as an example. She also has the power of incredible speed when fighting but this does not affect her running speed, just her movements. Megan gained these two powers from a female symbiotic alien, named Zoe, transferred from her mother, Anna. Megan has a crush on a mysterious boy named Travis Greenway.

In the main thread, Megan's father, she discovers, is an alien from a world of shape shifters. Being half alien, she too has this shape shifting ability only, being half human, it hurts her to use it more than a few minutes so she resides to only change part of her body to form shields or stabbing weapons as a defense when needed. Also, in the main thread, Megan's mother, she discovers, possesses a form of worldly clairvoyance, making her highly knowledgeable about the world. This is due to her own symbiont, named Beta, anchored within her womb.

Steve Connors
33 years old
5'8'' 197 lbs.
powerfully built with brown hair and brown eyes.

Steve is a kind, fun loving man who is never too busy to spend time with his family. However, he can be very serious and protective when the situation demands it. He is a top technician at Tanner Technologies, a research company on the outskirts of Waterfront City, where his family lives. In the main thread, it is revealed that Sam is an alien from a race of shape shifters who came to Earth. In the same thread, he was known as Sam, the ace driver and gadget building member of the Problem Child Gang who fought crime twenty years ago.

Anna Connors
30 years old
5'4'' 136lbs.
tall and slender, average strength with long blond hair and blue eyes.

Anna is a kind and knowledgeable woman with great patience. She is a stay at home mom who spends her time raising her daughter while studying to expand her knowledge. In the main thread, Anna can literally work any job, speak any language without study due to a form of worldly clairvoyance she gained from a symbiotic alien named Beta who was passed on from her own mother upon her birth.


Travis Greenway
(Revised)
14 years old
6' 0'' 190lbs.
Very tall and well built for his age with jet black hair and green 'cat' eyes (the pupils are a slit instead of round.)

Travis is a unique character and he likes it that way. He is kind and loyal to his friends and will stand up to anyone who threatens them. His friends call him 'splice' due to his strange characteristics. Shortly before high school, Travis was told he had two extra organs within him the doctors had never seen before. Shortly after, he discovered that he had developed the ability to transform into any creature he could perfectly visualize in his head, including Anthros and mythical creatures.

With such a bizarre mystery to unfold, Travis turned to his parents to receive a startling confession. Travis was genetically engineered, a 'pet project' of his mother, a former member of a group known only as The Agency. This was a group mentioned in his favorite graphic novel series, The Problem Child Gang.

The main thread splits with this character....

In one, it is revealed that Travis is an Earth born human/alien hybrid with shape shifting abilities, that favored animals and creatures, not an 'experiment' as previously told. In the other thread, Travis is the genetically engineered human with shape-shifting abilities.

In either case, Travis is an Animancer, a master of animal shape-shifting; he can change his form into almost any animal or creature by becoming one with nature itself. He has a crush on one Megan Connors who can 'communicate' with machines. Through her, he discovered that the Problem Child Gang existed and thus, so did the Agency. After one attempt to take him and Megan by force, Travis he realized he would have to fight to keep all he held dear to him.

THE END.
