Cool as fuck concept, Pro. I haven't read the other posts but hopefully I will soon. Quote:

I'm getting a "Firefly" kinda vibe.
Yeah, me too, plus I detect a hint of Buffy-ness in the dialogue and some Angel-like team dynamics. Really astonishing work, Pro.

Nice post Grimm. Now all I gotta do is go find out who Blackwulf is...  I had sorta envisioned Penny as being Drake's mum, but if that's not chronologically possible then that's okay, I have some ideas to cover that.
OOK OOK ACK EEK!

Why we don't simply assume that with advancement in medicine, the life span of humans one hundreds years from now is much longer than now?

Fine fine fine...Penny can be the mom. I just wanted to point things out. Besides, I am a firm believer that age should never limit sexual activity... You know, Pro and I keep on writing Drake like Icarus. Are we sure Tommy's the father?

Russian. Shapechanger. Last of a race of primal beings known as Genestealers. Unable to control his abilities, Blackwulf consumes matter through physical touch to stay alive. Has multiple personas due to consumption of various beings over time, including Fenris, a russian scientist named Vladislav, and others yet to be seen.
For the purposes of this story, he's kept in liquid form until needed, as otherwise he would consume everything around him uncontrollably. For some reason, in liquid state, he's stable.

About the Clockmen. These are not the Clockmen from the Siege. They don't have anyone with the internal abilities of 12. They have their ships and technology, that's it.

You can if you want. But, I was of the mind that no explanations are needed for anyone. Trying to explain why and how things are simply slows a story down, in my opinion. As far as, say, Cross, I'm content in the idea that, at some point, he gained hold of the madness that used to consume him. Case closed. Same with Drake Foxe's lineage. Move on to the current plot and play.
Generally, the untold imagination of everyone is much grandeur than any single explanation. But, that's just my opinion.
Now, I must go read what's happened so far...

Great team post, Pro. I need to take a page from your book on that. One little thing -- no contractions for Lykopis. If it makes you feel better, I forgot in my last post and had to go back and edit it. Quote:
Prometheus said: "Stupid fucking piece of dogshit eating--" he yelled, slamming his fist against the console, "---cocksucking whore fucking assmunching mother--"
...the engines suddenly fired up again, the systems coming back online...
"--FUCKER!!" he yelled, stopping short, as he noticed the renewal.
"You always know how to sweet-talk it..." Cross grinned, as the hatch closed above them.
I won't be happy until I hear, "It's not my fault!"

Good, I'm glad you got the reference.
So if Robo Squirrel is C3PO, Jym is R2, Adem is Obi-Wan, Drake is Han...does that make Lykopis Princess Leia or Chewy?

I wasn't sure where Adem was, so I wrote him by himself. Hope no one minds, but I just wanted to have some fun with him...

My proposed solution doesn't require him to retcon his post; in any case, i TOTALLY concour with Pro that there is NO need for an explanation at all.
