EPISODE I: LOYALTY (COMING SOON)
For ten years, the Terrans of Rastar have fought the Zerg menace. For ten years, they have pushed against the Zerg, only to retreat time and time again. Now, for the first time in over a decade, Rastar will be clean of this infestation. Lieutenant Scott Fisher, leader of the Maestro Squadron, is sent with a team of men to clean out the Zerg in the province of Torin... once and for all.
Meanwhile, newcomers are landing on the planet... a Protoss fleet, claiming to have lived upon Rastar hundreds of years ago, and yet now returning to the bountiful planet. The Terrans, however, do not take kindly to this second alien race invading upon them, and war begins between the two species...

Character Bios
Terran Characters:
--Scott Fisher
Age 25
Lieutenant of the Rastarian Military
"If an order is flat-out stupid and could result in unnecessary casualties, you don't follow it. Simple as that."
The Terran protagonist and symbol of resolve, Scott joined the Rastarian militia after invading Zerg snatched up and killed his girlfriend, along with most of the other people he'd known at that tender age. He'd always had a certain affinity with Vulture hoverbikes, but wrecked his in a daring maneuver three years into his service as a soldier. Climbing the ranks in the next seven years, mister Fisher is now a proud lieutenant within the militia, and is fighting to weed out the last of the Zerg on his home planet.
--Mathius Tolrim
Age 39
Shadow Ops
"Your ability to crack jokes about everything that comes out of my mouth never ceases to annoy me, lieutenant."
As a covert intelligence operative, not much is known about Tolrim. It is presumed that he serves Grumanoff, the man in charge, and that he has some form of psionic capabilities, but he is rarely seen by ground forces of any race or faction. Tolrim is very good at what he does; stay in the shadows, extract information, and leave without anyone knowing he was there to begin with.
--George Grumanoff
Age 51
General of the Rastarian Military
"I don't intend to sit here all day. I do that quite enough nowadays."
The brilliant tactician, charismatic diplomat, and semi-cool leader guy rolled into one, George is the all-purpose Rastarian figurehead. He's what the people need, and he's fought to fully reclaim his planet from the invading Zerg menace, no matter the cost. With his plans and strategies being credited with the cleansing of the Zerg thus far, few have bothered to pay close attention to their leader; else they'd see that he is, perhaps, not as together as he once was.
--Thomas Johnson
Age 30
Major of the Rastarian Military
"We've got Zerg up our ass, that's our situation!"
Thomas Johnson was the first Rastarian soldier to confront the Zerg when the invasion began. His task was to defend the capital city, but unfortunately, the Zerg swarms were too much for him, and he was demoted from Lieutenant to Major. Now working in the Torin-Korsan mining complex of Rastar, Johnson is, indeed, much more hurt by his failure than he lets on.
Protoss Characters
--Salanas
Age 704
Second Templar of the Mel'Korian Fleet
"I do suppose you're correct. However, I'm the one in charge of the armed and extremely dangerous guards that are ready to slice you in half and then slice your halves in half, so I suggest that you respond to my query."
The Protoss protagonist and symbol of tolerance and open-mindedness, Salanas has served under General Uldwe for many cycles, achieving the High Templar and then Second Templar ranks before being shadowed by the psionically-superior Kempor. Since then, he has become a well-respected fighter and psion amongst all the members of Uldwe's fleet - even his rival, Kempor - and hopes to reclaim Rastar for the good of the Protoss.
--Kempor
Age 827
First Templar of the Mel'Korian Fleet
"Always expect the worst from your situations, Salanas. There is no other method to predict what you might find."
First Templar Kempor currently serves under General Uldwe. His tenacities to pursue all-out war without provocation (or need) has kept him from his ultimate personal ambition of becoming a General himself, as the upper-ranked Templar in the Mel'Korian Fleet recognise that Kempor is ill-prepared to give out orders. It is surprising enough that he has retained his rank as it is.
--Uldwe
Age 930
General of the Mel'Korian Fleet
"I have witnessed the birth of this world's colonies. Under my rule, I intend to shape our empire so that it allows the reunification of our people, but we cannot do this if [our adversaries] remain a threat."
Wise, powerful, but generally misgiving of the other races, Uldwe's main directive is to reclaim planet Rastar for the Protoss, regardless of any Terran or Zerg resistance. He respects Kempor's power and Salanas' wisdom, and although his behaviour often points to Salanas being more worthy of a 'promotion' than Kempor, he values both warriors' uses and attributes.
Zerg Characters
--Max
Age 9
Abandoned by the Zerg Swarm
Not much is known about this little feller. Seemingly 'orphaned' by the purge of Zerg on Rastar, Max was quite helpless before Scott stepped in. Often seen as a 'rescue' by the other Terrans, he has gained some form of sympathy amongst them, but is still regarded with uncertain expressions. Max has no exceptional or outstanding powers not found amongst a normal Zergling, other than being slightly more powerful due to strategic tissue mutation and synapse evolutions.
--Scott Fisher

The thought of making a campaign has been tempting me for a long time. If I ever have the maps and story done I'll contact you, I like your voices.
