Planet Zophia
Who lives here
These six came first, and they live in Las Americas, a city on Planet Zophia. They were drawn and written in 2018, before the network, before the games, before any of the rest of it, and every single one of them is named after a star or a constellation. Some of that was on purpose: the twins are Castor and Pollux, the Gemini stars, which is the only correct thing to call a pair of twins. The rest accumulated until it stopped looking like an accident.
The host
She hosts the Network, and she lives in the city underneath it. She is also the sixth of the six below. Lyra Maru and Lyra the Lion are one person in two forms, not two characters.
The founding six
Drawn and written in 2018, before any of the rest of it. Their full stories are being made now, comics and shows, all connected to each other.
- Orion the Lion A cat walking toward the lion he already knows he is.
- Lyra the Lion Taking back what the universe took from her. No matter the cost. The same Lyra who hosts the Network, in her other form.
- Leo the Panda Deciding between what his father wants and what he actually loves.
- Aquarius “Ken” the Red Panda Named for their grandfather, a great merchant. Spends their time convincing Leo he can.
- Pollux “Pollie” the Hippo Chief of police one day. Taking on cases nobody reported in the meantime.
- Castor “Cassie” the Hippo The best assistant in the city, by his own assessment.
