I'll try to keep this section updated with all of the regulars populating the world of Earth or Bust.

CHRIS
Earthling - Male

Chris would call himself simply a "decent guy." Saturn would describe him as "boring." The truth may lie somewhere in the middle, but at the end of the day, the best word that describes this boy on the verge of manhood is "sincere."

Creative, sympathetic, and introverted, Chris is wading through his final year of High School in a basic attempt to get through it without being embarrassed, pounded upon, or basically noticed. Pretty much the last thing he needs in his life is an outgoing extra-terrestrial with a knack for getting in the middle of whatever's going on.

Despite his basic desire to blend in, he has managed to find quiet areas in which to excel. An expert photographer with a great eye for human interest, he has become the Photo Editor on his school newspaper and occasionally takes freelance jobs for local papers as well.

For the past ten years Chris has harbored a secret crush on his fellow classmate Holly, a popular girl from a troubled family. Well, Chris thinks it's a secret crush but the truth is anyone who knows Chris at all knows how bad he's got it for her.

 

SATURN
Vellaxian - Male

We have discovered precious little about this peppy, slug-like alien who has dropped into Chris' life.

However, we do know that Saturn is an anthropologist with the Galactic University, sent to Earth to study and report on its culture. We also know that Saturn got the assignment on Earth as a punishment for utterly botching his last job.

Still, Saturn doesn't let much in life get him down. He's an anthropologist for a reason, he loves people - of all shape, size, and species. Thus, he lets almost nothing get in the way of his learning about them.
