A powerful AI security system malfunctions, causing catastrophe. Years later various galactic powers, groups big and small are trying to fight for control of this system. The system's creator, Dr. Anthor Wrenclaw, assembles a team to keep it out of the wrong hands. Who will make it to The Zantorax Factor first?
The Books of Peldra is a smaller series I am starting with to get my bearings managing a project, writing, etc. I will be focused on this first, it exists in the same universe.
This is the first list of characters that are put together enough to present, there will be MANY more roles coming.

[ACTIVITY_DETECTED-::-[REDACTED]//]
Apologies folks, never realized I could give updates! A draft for "The Books of Peldra" is underway, slowly but surely. Potential plans in the works for more activity on YouTube in the near-ish future, still a maybe. A further down the road potentially a Patreon and Ko-fi for those interested in supporting the project(s) and getting insider information and other perks. All is still in the works, it's a slow roll, but we hope not to keep you waiting too long.
To those who have sent submissions and not heard back, I sincerely apologize. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your interest, and will not insult you with an excuse. I have been busy with other things, but I should still take the time to get back to you. Thank you again for your work and patience.
In the meantime, there may be something there for the perceptive.
All in due time...

I need a team of writers to get my project going, I have a lot of ideas in my head for the project. I realize the importance of expediting the story writing process. I need writers that are creative with attention to detail, and who can take a lot of constructive criticism, I am very picky with my project and want to make sure the big picture fits together properly, so I would rewrite and ask for alterations as needed. All that aside I look forward to meeting you, and writing with those who are excited to bring this and other stories to life!

Markov Salbaath is a large muscular man, wielding a large ornate War Hammer, his followers strong and devout. He speaks with conviction.
He is very traditional, and wants to keep other planets away, brutally striking them down if they come near, he also is very respectful of the dead, and feels terrible about killing Salvendra, but believes it had to be done to keep Peldra strong and for us to not let our guard down, not get comfortable being comfortable. He talks to gravestones to speak with the dead below them. He is very solemn and very focused
Summary of Books of Peldra Chapter Two:
(talks about Markov Salbaath raiding a farming village, a place of peace and comfort, to weed out the weak and put other villages on edge, to spark initiative to build and maintain defenses, part of his ideology is that keeping people strong will prevent another tyrant like Dravilth from rising, and he doesn’t realize he is becoming a second Dravilth, he will realize this later on when fighting Hella, and thank her for putting him to death.).
Norse Accent not necessary, but definitely a bonus.
“Strong are we the Wild-kin, who live and breathe in her shade, the pulse of Peldra with which our ill-placed comfort will fade to the faintest beat of her earthen heart, and we shall fall to our whimsy in arm of contentment, bearing our chests to those who knew better.”
"We mourn for those who now lay in Peldrana's arms, by our or other's hands, but we yet live to see that they are few who need rest""
“WILD-KIN!” the figure roars, “Witness the weak! Witness the strong! Witness yourself!” a cheer comes from the village, seeming to come from everywhere and nowhere at the same time. The screams of the village grow quieter as the crowd thins, grunt and moans spit out from those who pave the ground, their blood shimmers in pools the village a stained glass picture of reds, yellows, orange, and black. “Revelry is our undoing! Contentment draws upon you a target! Arms down are bodies in the ground! Forget not the fifth! Let not another!” with each statement comes yet another cheer from the darkness and fires.
"Oh I was Laughing? Sorry I was just laughing at what the Wilds just told me to do to you."
“Maximus, stop worrying so much” (Maximus Gelshwar is a close friend and bodyguard, second in command, and will probably be a love interest)
“Dravilth’s bloodlust has stained this land long enough!”
(Context: Peldra is a Jungle planet, and while beautiful, everything around you is deadly, only the strong survive. It is cut off from most all contact with other planets during Slavendra's time as the 8th Peldric Royal)
(The Peldric Royals can only exist one at a time, one usually gets this role by having killed the previous royal, though there are exceptions. Each Peldric royal is distinct in their powers, how the use and hone them, but overall the main theme of their power is that the very nature around you bends to your will, willingly or not, depends on the royal, but their power still allows them to use the nature of the planet as they see fit.)
The youngest of the Peldric royalty, getting her powers from her mentor before her at the age of 11, childlike and loving, wildflowers follow her, the plants come to life in her presence, her sad fate dying at the hands of the royal to follow, at age 26, those short 15 years among the happiest in Peldric history, not that it didn't have an incident.
Say anything that seems fitting
Note: This is THE MAIN CHARACTER, so I will be particularly critical about this role.
Backstory:
Praised Inventor/Engineer/Scientist Dr. Anthor Wrenclaw amazed the universe with his genius, a major milestone in his career, Velorak, a planet made into a creative utopia defended by an Artificial intelligence called “The Vela Algorithm”. This won him even higher praise, but when he tried to scale his project to a larger planet, and make more improvements something went wrong, causing chaos and controversy, and Dr. Wrenclaw blames himself for the project’s failures.
Demeanor:
Educated, well spoken, gentlemanly, internally guilt-ridden
Unique Attributes:
Chameleon Chrome arm and eye
"Matters of the universe are inherently logical…people are not"
"One's mind can roar louder than a crowd of voices"
"Failure is an option we simply do not have"
Warren Voss is a Calderon Armor and Exosuit specialist, an old friend of Dr. Anthor Wrenclaw and Velerain
"What amatuer made this?"
"They don't make things like they used to..... Then again it's not like they could out do me anyway!"

Glaskuull is the cyberwalker right-hand-man to Velerain. With a tentacle arm similar if not identical to Velerain’s tendrils, and a skull encased in a layer of glass. Glaskuull was originally Gerrett Fenburry, Velerian’s lab assistant and foreman of the “Underchrome” reactor that caused cybercrypt. He is kind of on a high horse, smart as hell but looks down on those below his station, regardless he is fantastic at his work and a valuable asset, even though most if not all who work with or under him at the very least have a distaste for him. That said he knows where he stands and is more friendly to those on his level or above him, eager to work his way up the ladder.
Cyberwalkers:
Undead victims of the Underchrome accident, not as lucky as Velerain they follow him, skeletons, zombies and inbetween. Meshed with various tech and have lost their minds to their technological equipment.
Say anything that seems fitting, or use lines from the other Doctor roles.
"You stay lost in your folly while those who suffer chase answers unwritten"
Highly intelligent in strategy and battle, and a beast when he does get into the fray. Towering 10’ tall wielding the ancestral fist (hammer of his people) Malor-Thok can wreak havoc when he’s not strategizing.

Lukas Kellanfrist is a lone wolf, sick of the constant fighting he sees plague the universe, he in efforts to stop the fighting, wars, etc. that have taken everything from him he has ironically become one of the best fighters ever not known, he hides in the shadows silencing violence of any kind, he does not care what motive you have, at the end of the day something is lost somewhere due to the reckless acts of the aggressors and he will not have it, he rides an old motorcycle like vehicle or old classic car, charmingly beat to shit, kind of a sandy beige to rusty orange and cream colors with decals without order and small meaningful personal items adorning his gear
“I don’t know what kind of asshole y’all take me for but I ain’t no damn ‘nigh (knight) in shin’in armor”
“You can take whatever self-righteous BullShit ya feed yourself and fuck off, this ends now pal” (bull and shit heavily/angrily emphasized)
