There are three groups of people that are
found in the GCTT universe, or at least the story revolves around three groups
of people. The first group is the Hero Group; this group usually consists of
Zero, Tom, and Shadow. The second group is the Back Packer Group; who are the
Known Nine and the GEAR riders. The third and final group is the very human and
uniquely gifted Masquerader Group.
The Heroes are the hell-bent saviors of
the universe: Zero overthrew his world’s government and after being blown
across the galaxy in to our solar system gets right back into the fighting to
help save the universe, Shadow literally goes to hell and back to save his
planet from an ancient evil and just like Zero helps Tom in his endeavors, and
finally Tom slays the root of all Chaos and Corruption with weapons forged by
God himself.
The Backpackers are the ones that set up
the winning hand for the Heroes, though there are 17 there are only nine that
have been known to exist in our plane of reality. The Known Nine ensured that
in the midst of hopelessness with the known universe and other dimensions
collapsing a chance would still be in play for the Heroes to triumph. While
this group may not seem important or appear as dull, their adventures are
extremely critical and filled with action and complex tactics. Although the
Backpackers set up the Heroes, the GEAR riders were the predecessors to them
and could be the other eight not mentioned in the Known Nine.
The Masqueraders are a group of humans
that cannot die and are extremely acrobatic. On top of being basically super
human, they can use a special energy generating ability to either heal the
wounded or destroy entire cities. In a sense these are the ones telling the
stories of before the event horizon all the way until a little after Tom saves
the universe. At first they reside on earth documenting Leon’s actions, Tom’s
father. After the whole war is over, The Era of Consequence, they have been
scattered across the universe waiting for Judgment to occur.
Some of these characters you will relate
with and some you will severely dislike, it matters not to me since I am only
the messenger telling the story of an alternate reality where these things are
acknowledged to be possible and do in fact happen. With science we live
in a world full of theoretical sense with rarely any practice. In the realm in
which you are about to venture into all of our science is put in to practice
and then thrown out the window of fact since what we know is pale in comparison
to what the Omniscient, Omnipresent, and Omnipotent knows. For those of you
that say your mind is open when it is in fact shut I feel sorry for, because it
is God that has a place for us.
