Character Profiles
Young, fearless, and impossible to ignore. Mara is the energetic drummer of Midnight Baked and a waitress at Butter the Moon café. Known for her wicked sense of humor and unmistakable laugh, she brings light and chaos wherever she goes — even as darker times begin closing in around Meridian Prime.
Markus is the powerhouse of Midnight Baked — lead guitarist, gym regular, and one of the most dependable faces on Meridian Prime. Working behind the bar at A Hill of Beans, he’s known for his calm confidence, dry humor, and ability to keep a level head when tensions rise. Strong, disciplined, and fiercely loyal to his friends, Markus becomes a grounding force as uncertainty and fear begin spreading across the planet. Beneath the easygoing exterior is someone always ready to stand and fight for the people he cares about.
Logical under pressure and fiercely determined, Melira is a respected officer within the Meridian Prime Police Department (MPPD). Strong, confident, and unwavering in her sense of justice, she stands on the front line as unrest begins spreading across the city. Behind the badge, Melira shares a close relationship with Mara — balancing duty, loyalty, and the growing fear that something far darker is emerging beyond Meridian Prime’s skyline.
Montgomery is the respected owner and bar manager of A Hill of Beans — one of Meridian Prime’s most well-known gathering spots. Wise, sharp-minded, and impossible to intimidate, he’s built a reputation as a straight talker who tolerates no nonsense. Beneath the stern exterior is a man deeply connected to the heartbeat of the city, offering advice, hard truths, and quiet support to those around him. As fear and uncertainty begin spreading across Meridian Prime, Montgomery becomes a steady voice of experience in a world slowly losing its balance.
Brilliant but permanently irritated, Mink is one of Milvara Futuronics’ longest-serving scientists and technicians. Highly intelligent and deeply experienced, he has spent years working behind the scenes on some of the corporation’s most advanced technologies. Known for his grumpy attitude, blunt honesty, and endless complaints about “idiots breaking perfectly good systems,” Mink has still earned the respect of almost everyone around him. Outside the laboratories, he’s a familiar face at A Hill of Beans, usually found occupying the same seat every evening — quietly observing the chaos unfolding across Meridian Prime while pretending not to care.
Quiet, thoughtful, and often lost in his own imagination, Morris is the bassist of Midnight Baked and one of the most reserved members of the group. While others chase noise and attention, Morris is usually happiest with a novel in his hands and a quiet corner to disappear into. Deeply intelligent and observant, he notices the small details others overlook — a trait that quietly shapes both his music and his writing.
An aspiring fiction author, Morris spends almost every spare moment developing stories, characters, and worlds of his own, dreaming of one day publishing a novel across Meridian Prime. Though soft-spoken and introverted, his calm presence provides balance within the band during increasingly uncertain times. As fear and tension begin spreading across the city, Morris becomes a quiet reminder that creativity, imagination, and hope can still survive even in the shadow of something far darker approaching.
Trusted across Meridian Prime for his calm authority and unmistakable voice, Moss Winchester is the lead news anchor of MPCN — Meridian Prime Central News. For years, he has delivered the stories that shaped a planet, becoming a familiar presence in homes, cafés, and public screens across the city. Respected for his professionalism and relentless pursuit of the truth, Moss has built a reputation as the journalist people turn to when the world no longer makes sense.
Everything changed when he became the first broadcaster to break the story of the devastating Greb attacks within the Trinary Systems. While officials hesitated and rumors spread across the network feeds, Moss delivered the warning no one wanted to hear:
“The Grebs are heading towards Meridian Prime.”
As fear and uncertainty begin consuming the planet, Moss remains the steady voice guiding the public through the unfolding crisis — reporting hope, tragedy, and hard truths alike. In a world descending into chaos, millions look to one screen and one voice for answers.
Little is truly known about the Grebellion Soldiers. Emerging from the darkness beyond explored space, these silent armored figures became the first visible sign that something far more dangerous was approaching Meridian Prime. Disciplined, relentless, and seemingly without fear, the Grebs move with terrifying precision and purpose. Rumors surrounding their origins vary across the galaxy — but wherever they appear, destruction and uncertainty soon follow. As the crisis begins unfolding in Peril of the Grebs Vol. 1, one question spreads faster than the invasion itself:
What are the Grebs really here for?
