Mika She is a creation of Eitir, an Ultieer. Based on the genome of Neila, daughter of Latif. (Like all of that, is... Takes a while to explain) But her "adoptive” father was a federal agent, a strict sort that at times resolved to using physical punishment in child rearing. He wasn't a bad father, or particularly abusive, but it didn't stop Mika from running away from home after one such altercation. She was around 13 at that time, and too young to be running the streets, but after she had cooled down from the fight with her father, she felt too ashamed to go back home, and never did. Her father however never stopped looking for her. They crossed paths a few times, once while he was working a case. Seated on the opposite subway from hers. She panicked, he had renewed hope at returning her back home. Using the resources at his disposal, he located where she had been staying. But what he was met with was a man not entirely human, Zethymir. Zethymir was there to kill Mika, but left having killed her father instead. Mika is like the universes “fuck you” to itself, and everything in it. She seems insignificant, besides the part where she got a “seer assigned assassination” on her head, by the Ferrians. Which is targets assigned by Ferrians seers to make the war go smoothly. This was to be preformed by Zethymir, who for reasons he couldn't understand then, was unable to do so.

Big Tree Bullseye (Bullseye is the name Mika gave him, because he got a knack of getting shot.) Big Tree and Mika share the same problem, Ferrian’s got one of their siblings. Mika was at one point confronted with her younger brother, who the Ferrians had tried to alter for their indoctrination into their own society. Mainly to give him access to their “connection”. Didn't go well. Big Tree wounded his shoulder during a skirmish with the Sioux, and was rendered unable to properly use a bow from then on. This lead him to feel shameful, and useless to his mother and sisters and the village as whole. Eventually he started to drink a lot, this in return lead him to get more and more familiar with the language of the white man. During that time he met with white folks more frequently and learned more of the language, which gave him the opportunity to handle trading with them, and similar tasks. Eventually making him a representative of the Pawnee, earning him the Indian peace medal by the US. That gave him a lot of the honour back, in which he felt he had lost. He had the medal, the others didn’t, he’d boast a bit, the others would envy him a bit, they’d joke about it and all seemed fine again. Until a day when a flash in the sky caught the tribe’s attention. A group along with Big Tree went to check it out, but unbeknownst to the rest of them, his younger sister was convinced that this was Tirawahut's doing, and wished to see it for herself.. And shit went down...  What it was, was time and space displacement gone awry. The cause was an experiment during the Ferrian Earth war. Sending him and his sister across time. His sister was captured by the Ferrians moments after. Big Tree sets out to find his sister, in a world he doesn't understand. He eventually come across Mika, whom he, in mild terms "kidnaps." She wears a necklace in which he recognize from one of the Ferrian warriors who took his sister. He believes Mika to be a means to find his sister again. Those two eventually become an unlikely pair of friends. An unstoppable force of "wtf just happened."

Zethymir Was created by a man named Eitir (Ultieer) for the purpose to infiltrate the Ferrian people. Zethymir was partially created using a Ferrian captive and Eitir's own genome. The Ferrian captive/slave, was a third gen captive of the Ultiers. As they had managed to capture a fleet belonging to Ferrians centuries ago. They had kept the prisoners, and bred them for.. Specific reasons, I'm not going into. Eitir picked out a large group of slaves and placed them on a ship, including Zethymir and his mother. This was meant as a lure, to ensure that Zethymir would be taken into the Ferrian society. The ship was placed on a route in which Eitir knew a Ferrian ship would pass. He launched the "vultures," onto the ship with the slaves. (They are essentially the same as the Reavers in firefly, to an extent. They are subgroup of Ultiers.) Ferrians are one of the biggest proponent in the galaxy in fighting and hunting Vultures. (Who most don't know are Ultiers, most don't know the existence of Ultiers either..) Now everyone on the slave ship knew they were the sacrificial lamb, to ensure that Zethymir would be taken in by the Ferrians. He was at that point a young boy, and he wasn't supposed to be exposed to the vultures, but hearing his mother being attacked he came out of hiding. Which just caused him to be attacked as well. Luckily for him at least, the Ferrian slaves did what they could to save him, ensuring he remained alive until the other Ferrian ship got lured in. Zethymir was taken in by the Fewyn leader among the Ferrians, and trained to become a Fewyn himself. The Fewyn are specially trained Ferrians soldiers, for more specific tasks than “war”. The ship he was found on was considered a mystery, as Ferrians being rather xenophobic tend to keep to themselves. Not that they don’t travel outside their solar system, but such a large ship with so many people, they’d know about it. Lacking the connection as Ferrians have (a form of emotional bond) and his few but noticeable physical differences from Ferrians in general made it so that he was never properly accepted in that society. Those "flaws" in him was made intentional by Eitir, to ensure Zethymir's loyalty to him rather than growing fond of the Ferrian people.

Makhan Aeli He is a character that grew in my mind, without me feeling like i had any choice in the matter. Which is ironic. He is the son of the Masaf, and the next in line to become so. Masaf being the ruler in the Ferrian society. Who is to be Masaf is always determined by who is the strongest among them. This is thoroughly tested while they are young. It is however highly hereditary. Makhan in many ways seem like a gentle and kind person, his mannerisms are soft, in both voice and body language. But he has grown extremely cold and wicked. However it never plays out in an obvious manner, it's always subtle and often devastating. He read minds, and shapes them. The extent of what he can do isn't well known to his own people, but he can even manipulate the bond the Ferrians share. He's so set on what he is meant to do as a Masaf, that he doesn't quite realise why it is that marrying a woman and having a child with her is causing him to rot from the inside. He is a gay man, with one exception. The only woman he ever felt attraction to was his own sister. While you may find incestuous marriages on occasion among what you could consider "the royalty" of the Ferrians, it wasn't at all the norm. She in return was set for an arranged marriage to the son of the Fewyn leader, Jatekh. Makhan could manipulate Neila in any way he liked, and was often tempted to do so. In the end he did at least allow himself to form her mind, so she'd never grow affection towards Jatekh. Jatekh is, however Makhan's closest friend.

Tryggvi Haah...

Maguwa Her mother left her father while she was around 11 years old. Her father found it difficult to raise his daughter in the big cities, and eventually moved them both to a fishing town in Maine. He got a job as a deckhand, but still struggled in a the role as a lone parent. Maguwa understood this, and did her best for her age to make life easier for him. In essence they both took care of one another. Her discipline lead her to a life in the military. She became a target for the Ferrians as well, and they… Sorta succeed in their task in killing her. But then there was Mika. Who fucks up everything, because that’s what she is good at. Maguwa ends up leading one of the resistance groups in the war.
