CHARACTERS

HEMI!

Headstrong, self-confident, yet open-minded, Hemi seeks to enjoy and protect the world’s innate beauty. While she is normally relaxed and carefree, when she has to fight, she is reckless and dives in head-first to protect those around her.

Wielding a gigantic globe hammer and celestial magic, she is the unstoppable Juggernaut of the Stars!

ACRO!

A seemingly odd friend of Hemi, Acro is closed off and distant, much more willing to observe than to take action. Despite that, for the sake of peace and tranquility, he will fight for it with blistering speed! 

Swift on his feet and in his strikes, he is the Rogue Cyclone!

An excerpt from our lovely(?) Zooka.

"Hi beauties, Zooka here!

Our planet is suffering right now! Our source of power and magic, the Waterfall of Dreams, has been stolen! High up in outer space, the waterfall thief has it all to himself; someone must stop him! To reach him, you must gather all the Star Badges from its base! But I fear the residents aren’t too happy about the missing waterfall…

Unfortunately, I can’t do it myself. My specialty is intelligence, so I’m not fit for field combat. My big brain is a metaphorical weapon, not a literal one. And no, I am not a suitable weapon! However, I offer personal life advice, and special facilities that help improve oneself and their skills! Aren’t I so great?? Now go bring back the Waterfall of Dreams, while I assist from the backlines!

…don’t look at me like that! I’m helping tons with things like onboarding and education…"
