The Characters

Lilith

Lilith emerges as a literal fish out of water, a mysterious and complex figure with jet-black hair, almond-shaped eyes, and an otherworldly blue iris.

She is a "sex zek," a derogatory term for Non-Human Beings, engineered from diverse species, including the Nudibranch sea slug.

Fatima

Fatima, a fellow sex zek, belongs to the first generation of Hive sex zeks; essentially sex andriods enhanced with steroids and AI.

Her generation has long been hunted down and deemed obsolete. Miraculously surviving her inaugural mission, she avoids being "Repurposed," a euphemism for termination, instead becoming a clandestine mentor to the subsequent generation of sex zeks.

She teaches the quest for the Oasis. Not only for survival them, but for the whole world in place of love, hope, and endless possibilities.

Clare

Clare is the first Amirkhan sex zek whom Lilith encounters when she rescues her in a near-future DizzyLand.

She is described as "blond and willowy," wearing Birkenstocks, jeans, and a Joy Division T-shirt. Her smile, reminiscent of a pre-Reckoning surfer, carries the poise of royalty in exile.

She is Eve’s original partner, evident in their deep connection and shared difficult past. Clare is a carefree and adventurous individual, skilled at navigating dangerous situations with humor and quick thinking.

She is resourceful, resilient, and always ready for the unexpected, making her one of the first characters to show Lilith affection, kindness, and even love.

 Eve

Eve is a gorgeous Amirkhan Alpha sex zek who resembles a Khmer queen. She exudes supreme confidence, seductiveness, and a fierce determination to not only survive the Kali Yuga but survive it as the genetic ark. The Ark who repopulates the world at the Oasis.

Nate

Nathaniel St. Thiel, also known as Nate, possesses both charisma and intellect, boasting a dual M.D. and Ph.D. from Yale. Radiating an almost supernatural persuasion, poise, and ambition, he resembles a near-future Patrick Bateman. Nate works for a conglomerate delving into bio-weapons and cosmetics, among other ventures involving genetic experimentation on the populace.

Despite Lilith's initial depiction of him as a "garden variety narcist-sex addict," astute readers discern hidden depths in Nate. Lilith’s first date with Nate goes horribly awry and though some believe Nate is killed during the chaos, others believe he is out there somewhere in New Los Angeles plotting his next move and an inevitable showdown with Lilith.

Tomas

Chloe

Chloe, a Hive human sleeper agent embedded within Amirkhan/Bio_Wep, possesses a mastery of deception, manipulation, and sexual seduction.

Her pivotal role involves priming targets like Nathaniel and enabling Lilith's missions through subtle maneuvers.

She is cunning, adaptable, and proficient in clandestine information gathering, Chloe operates discreetly, leaving no trace of her presence.

Tomas, once a skilled dog tailor crafting sweaters for pugs and shih tzus in West Hollywood, enters the narrative with an enigmatic past. He is speculated to have played a role in the collapse of society, possibly due to a mishap involving a coffee order. Presently, he assumes the title of a post-Reckoning “Arms Dealer,” challenging Lilith to confront her origins, role in the Kali Yuga, and the potential path to redemption. Physically unassuming, with a short, portly stature and concealed imperfections, Tomas surprises with his ambitious nature, dark humor, and profound insights into the unfolding chaos.
