A.D., aka Domino: Born 2058 in the Lower Ring to insurgent parents, born out of wedlock and unregistered on the social services system. For all purposes, she didn’t exist. She went to live with a family friend after her parents’ incarceration and spent eight years planning and gathering information, ready to finish what her parents started. She began recruiting at school and soon assumed the position as leader of the rebellion.
L.A., aka Catastrophe: Born 2051 in the Lower Ring. A bright girl who did well in school and was one of the few Lowers who attained a decent education, and keen enough to notice the fallacies in the reports of the then-named Kere-Vergara Science Association, the predecessor of Turritopsis. Her mentor was captured the same time as Domino’s parents for involvement in the rebellion and she began seeking out more information about Turritopsis. Her search eventually led her to both Domino and Dr. Darcy.
M.L., aka Cutthroat: Born 2057 to journalists who were eventually forced into hiding for their investigations into the animal and human rights violations of KVSA. While at school, she became the instigator of numerous anonymous online posts discrediting KVSA, spreading rumours which were unfortunately taken as a conspiracy. It was these, however, that drew the attention of Domino, then recruiting.
S.L., aka Frostbyte: Born 2057 to parents deported from the UR. Grew up with a fair amount of press attention; her mother a disgraced model and her father once an esteemed scientist. She learned quickly how to both manipulate the cameras and slip off unnoticed. She became friends with Domino in school.
T.T, aka Trinity: Born 2061. Her father, an engineer, was among the first to be taken for human trials, with a large remuneration for her and her mother. In what was meant to be his returning car, there was a crash from which no bodies could be recovered, now believed to be staged to prevent questions about his disappearance. Catastrophe tutored her and introduced her to the circle.
L.W., aka Knockout: Born 2064. Lived quietly until she one day found evidence to prove that she had had a twin that was sold to KVSA for a large sum. Running from home, she was stopped by a police officer, who just so happened to be Domino’s guardian.
N.D and M.D.: Domino’s parents and the pioneers of the Lower Ring resistance movement. Middle-class, nondescript civilians, but chance and passion brought them to head the revolution. They were captured for their dissent and left behind a teenage daughter.
K.C., aka Dr. Elizabeth Darcy: Born 2030. A highly qualified neurosurgeon and microbiologist, relegated to the UR upon its formation. She was one of the pioneer scientists of KVSA in the 2050s, until human trials began and she realised the extent to which Kere and Vergara were willing to go to attain immortality. She bade her time until she heard rumours of an uprising in the LR. She managed to contact the ringleaders with what she knew, but withdrew her involvement upon their incarceration. When she was found again by Catastrophe, she agreed to aid their mission to end Turritopsis once and for all.
Nicholas Kere and Joelle Vergara: A marine biologist and medical doctor respectively, brilliant young scientists who discovered the secret to immortality, but proceeded to use their wealth, resource, intelligence and network to instigate an operation that would ruin thousands of lives to improve dozens. Their estimated criminal record in the political proceedings of securing Turritopsis’ success is enough to hand them five consecutive life sentences.
