Meet the crew.
Captain Jane Riley
Commander of the U.S.S. Polaris
Captain Jane Riley was hand-picked to lead Earth’s first space exploration mission, mostly because she was the only one who didn’t say no fast enough. She’s sarcastic, competent, and constantly questioning how she ended up babysitting humanity’s future.
Cal
Ship’s AI Assistant
Cal is a floating, high-end robotic assistant built to help children—but now assigned to guide the Polaris. He’s cheerful, overly polite, and secretly petty. He hates being interrupted, and the crew keeps interrupting.
Zacharias “Zach
Engineer / Ship Mechanic
Zach is the ship’s reluctant tech genius—serious, grounded, and constantly fixing things no one else understands. He speaks fluent sarcasm and machine code. He’s the only one who can reboot the engines without setting off fireworks.
Buddy
Alien Lifeform / Security Risk
Buddy is a bouncy, goo-based alien with a glowing core, floating eyes, and a wildly chaotic energy. He’s friendly, clumsy, and accidentally immortal—resetting every time he dies with no memory of what happened. Which is often.
Brayden
Navigation / Chaos Agent
Brayden is the ship’s smart-ass navigator. He’s quick with a joke, never takes blame, and always has an escape plan. He’s weirdly good at getting the crew out of trouble—especially trouble he caused.
Holt
Head of Security
Holt is a stern, by-the-book security officer who takes everything seriously—especially his secret logs about how dangerous Buddy is. He’s loyal, focused, and always 30 seconds away from a full breakdown.
