- THE
MERCENARY
- Professional warrior of the Country of the Clouds,
with quite a Quixotic ethical code. He's not a superhero but effective
at work. For that reason, the Mercenary tries to have first quality
weapons to compensate his inferiority in front of stronger enemies,
and acts cunningly when necessary. He's a honest man who follows his
own ethical code and is faithful to his promises.
- We know very little about his life and nothing about
his family, to such an extent that we even ignore his real name. We
only have news of an adventure of his childhood that left a scar in
his lip.

- NAN-TAY
- Young warrior in charge of the security and protection
of the Order of the Crater who, to the Mercenary's surprise, turns
out to be a woman. Trained by the Lama, she's educated and expert
in many fighting techniques as well as in the use of all kinds of
weapons. Of serious and responsible character, she has taken out the
Mercenary of several difficulties.
When Claust began to mean a serious threat for the Crater and she
needed some help for its security, the investigations took her to
evaluate the Mercenary that after overcoming the tests, was admitted
as her assistant.
Great-niece of the Lama, they came together to Earth when she was
a child and their planet, Geos, suffered a catastrophe that killed
almost all the human kind. Her grandfather Kay was not able to pass
with them to Earth and so she returns every three years to the arrival
point to wait for him.

- KY
- Sharp and brave young girl that comes from planet
Geos. When accidentally a white layer covered the planet killing all
human life beneath, those that would be her parents survived because
they were wearing suits of pressure. Her mother died at her birth
and his father some years later, but Ky miraculously succeed thanks
to her unusual instinct for survival. Very skilled and alert, she
learned by her own to drive all the vehicles that had been intact
and disseminated by Geos.
She met the Mercenary during his first trip to Geos, but she only
managed to pass to the Earth three years later. She encountered again
the Mercenary and no she lives in the Monastery of the Crater.

- CLAUST
- Alchemist of the Country of the Permanent Clouds,
he's astute, ambitious and mean. Mediocre as alchemist, his fortune
and prestige are due to the formulas provided by the Lama in exchange
of raw materials and opium. He hired the Mercenary as escort for his
last trip to the Monastery and the circumstances hastened the warrior
to start working as a security guard of the order. Very powerful since
he stole the gunpowder formula from the Lama, the zenith of his power
arrives when he discovers the way of using a black globe as a weapon.
Declared enemy of the crater's monks, for they are the only ones that
obstruct his desires to control the Country, he has tried to destroy
them several times without success.

- ARNOLDO
- As other monks of the Order of the Crater, Arnoldo
comes from a country located under the layer of Permanent Clouds.
His ability and ideas in his home Italy attracted the attention of
the Lama who kept him under observation. So then, when Arnoldo was
denounced for one of his experiments, the Lama was able to rescue
him from diying at the stake and asked him to join the order.
Great inventor, Arnoldo dominates all the sciences of his time and
possesses a great capacity to achieve considerable advances with the
limited materials and tools of his time. This way, he invents devices
like canyons, machine guns, submarines, etc.
