Meg
  Megasymorisalasinaronisa( Meg, for short) - Meg needed to do something with her life. She was an ordinary woman on a planet who's society had grown up. She knew from what her mother and father taught her that experience was more valuable than knowledge. Meg wanted to go somewhere and be someone who mattered. Meg enrolled in the Spectra-Corps, her society's elite army of do-gooders who searched the galaxy for civilizations in need. 

 Meg's first assignment was to help out a little planet nestled in one corner of the Milky-Way galaxy. Meg's society had mastered the art of moving through fourth-dimensional space. While time is widely mis-labeled as the fourth dimension by many societies, it turns out that time is the eighth dimension. Hyper-space is the fourth dimension, and once mastered, one can move vast distances in the blink of an eye. 

 

 
Michiko
 
Michiko- Michiko's life was not an easy one. At a time when she only knew that she loved her parents, they were taken away when the airplane that was taking them to her home-town crashed while landing. Everyone was killed, except for Michiko. A firefighter on the scene was devastated by the sad sight of wreckage that he was forced to walk through. Then he caught something out of the corner of his eye. What appeared to be a fading glow from underneath a section of the hull yielded a tiny little hand sticking out from the jagged edge. Michiko was alive! The only survivor, she would be called the miracle-child by the press. Little did she know that twenty-two years later her real miracles would begin and the empty void in her heart would be filled by those who cared for her the most. 

 

 
Miranda
 
Miranda - Miranda is the daughter of the firefighter who found Michiko in the wreckage of the plane crash. His heart sank when he found the only survivor, a small child who was the same age as Miranda. After bringing Miranda to the hospital where Michiko was recovering and dealing with the loss of her parents, Michiko and Miranda became best friends and classmates when kindergarten started a few weeks later. Who knew that their bond would help Michiko overcome her biggest challenge and save the Earth at the same time. 

 

 
Melany
  Melany - Melany was the daughter of the doctor who treated Michiko when the plane crashed. It was a difficult night for Melany's father because Melany was born only a few moments before Michiko's plane crashed. Troubled and touched by Michiko's loss, Melany's father always made sure that Michiko was always welcome in his family's life. Michiko and Miranda grew up to be like older sisters to Melany who was an only child like Michiko. Melany's birth was the beginning of Michiko's path to finding the real meaning in her life. 

 

 
Myles

 

Myles Meddleton - Myles wasn't always a mad scientist but twenty-two years ago something strange happened to this beer guzzling chemistry and physics major. 

It was a weekend night like any other, the keg was tapped and he was surrounded by his fellow classmates who would proceed to drink themselves silly until they hit the floor. Myles had a weird feeling that night and it wasn't because his bell-bottoms were too tight. 

It was just a few minutes before the tragic announcement that a plane had crashed a couple of towns away. Myles was too busy to worry about that though because he just had a flash of intuition. He somehow, suddenly knew that moving through four-dimensional space was possible! Sitting there next to the keg, unmoving, staring blankly into space, the cogs were moving. Myles knew that it simply must be possible to manipulate space such that one could walk far distances in the blink of an eye. 

Kicked out of college for being an insane, crack-pot, Myles would spend the next twenty-two years unlocking the secret of four-dimensional travel. But just as he was about to conduct his ten-thousandth experiment in generating a dimensional-pulse, his measurement equipment spiked. Multiple readings on multiple instruments. Myles concluded that this was impossible since he hadn't yet thrown the switch on the experiment. This could only mean one thing. Someone beat him to it. That someone must have spied on his work and stolen his ideas! HIS IDEAS! They must be stopped at any cost! 

Little did Myles know at the time but his very genetic makeup, his fourth chromosome, was a new mutation for the human race. It was he who held the key to four dimensional travel for future generations of Earth's inhabitants.... but there was another.

 
Fubar and Scamp
 
Fubar and Scamp - Fubar and scamp started life as unassuming raccoons. Wandering the forest floor for bigger and better campgrounds, where the humans would fill the trash cans with incredible feasts of leftovers and sometimes cookies, these two raccoons thought they had life all figured out. Of course, they never counted on meeting the Mad Scientist, Myles Meddleton. 

These two raccoons knew the drill when new campers came to the area. The silly humans would pull all of their goodies out of their vehicles and proceed to put their tents up. That was usually the cue the raccoons needed to begin the acquisition of food. On this day though they decided to acquire Myles' special "Latte" blend of chocolate covered coffee beans. Little did they know that Myles had concocted a new breed of coffee bean that enhanced the IQ of those who ate it. They also soon found out it was addictive! Scamp and Fubar liked being smarter than the other raccoons. Myles realized that he needed some help around the lab but didn't want any other geniuses around to steal his ideas. Myles came to an agreement with the nocturnal schemers. They help out in the lab and Myles makes them the smartest raccoons around. 

Old habits die hard though. Scamp and Fubar still have their little fetish for exploring anything resembling a trash can. Myles also didn't account for the fact that raccoons like to dip their food in something liquid before consuming it. Maybe a latte with crumbs is an acquired taste?

 
Mitzy
Mitzy Maehehm - Mitzy was just your average brilliant archeologist and girlfriend of Myles Meddleton until a mysterious ancient artifact was unearthed in a newly discovered Mayan temple.  While studying an odd three-sided small clay pyramid shaped object that she had found on her last expedition Mitzy discovered that there was an even  smaller blue polymer based pyramid inside the clay.  Mitzy wondered what a plastic object would be doing in a temple vault centuries before plastic was invented. Mitzy has made the discovery of a lifetime! Before Mitzy could tell anybody about her discovery something strange happened.  The pyramid seemed to have a life of it's own.  Having no body to speak of, the pyramid decided that Mitzy would be a perfect fit for getting around.  Although Mitzy didn't seem any different to her friends, she did have a new agenda now.  The entity explained to Mitzy that it was a Plastic-Pixel trapped in a special formulation of clay designed to inhibit it from manifesting itself. Mitzy's pyramid entity sensed  four-dimensional energy near by.  The entity was an enemy of anyone who would use the fourth dimension for good.  These goody-two-shoes wannabes had to be stopped and Mitzy, under control of the Plastic-Pixel, would make sure of it!
