The ExoSquad Epic
This article was taken from the official ExoSquad page, as
created by Universal.
One hundred and fifty years into the future, mankind has mastered genetic
engineering
and populated the planets of Mars and Venus (the "Homeworlds") by
modifying the
atmospheres of those planets to allow for human habitation.
Military force was becoming of much less importance until attacks on
space shipping by
outlaw Pirates (former inmates of penal colonies on the outer planets)
increased with
alarming frequency. The Homeworlds Congress organized a new military
force to deal
with the Pirate menace: the Exoforce. Using sophisticated
"Exo-technology" (powerful
armored suits that function as impenetrable outer skeletons) these brave
men and
women do battle with the Pirates.
Meanwhile, scientists continued to
experiment with the human genetic code creating "the next phase of human
evolution".
This new "race" was called Neosapien. The Neosapiens possess an
incredible intellect,
need no sleep and very little nourishment; they are a perfect work force
for the still
harsh environments of Mars and Venus. The Neosapiens are deliberately
subjugated by
"natural" humans who fear their superior abilities in almost all areas.
Neosapiens are
very resentful of their role as second class citizens and soon are
galvanized behind a
charismatic leader, Phaeton. He insisted ominously that Neosapiens were
the ultimate
expression of intelligent life in the Universe and destined to rule all
mankind. Phaeton
soon planned and launched a brutal surprise attack upon the Homeworlds,
and quickly
conquered them while the Exoforce was occupied with the Pirates. Shortly
Phaeton has
complete control over the Homeworlds, and begins his plans to subjugate,
and eventually
eliminate all natural humans.
Only the Exoforce can defeat Phaeton and put a stop to his mad vision.
Our stories will
focus on Able Squad, a group of courageous young people (Natural Human and
Neosapien) who are dedicated to bringing an end to Phaeton's tyranny.
Led by Lt. J.T. Marsh, the ExoSquad battles Phaeton and his henchmen in
an effort to
free humanity so that all may live in equality and peace.
The second season of exosquad follows the continuing adventures of
Commander J.T.
Marsh and Able Squad as they battle for human liberation from the
Neosapein tyranny
of Phaeton.
Our heros first strike an unusual alliance between the Exofleet and its
longtime enemies,
the Tethysian Pirates. With the help of the Pirate leader, Simbacca, J.T.
and the daring
Exofleet make a last stand against Phaeton. On Earth and Venus, organized
resistance
groups harass the Neosapien occupation forces, and carry out many
missions with the
help of Able Squad.
The Exofleet will score a series of small but decisive victories against
Phaeton,
infuriating him. Phaeton is unable to accept even the smallest failure,
and ruthlessly
takes revenge on his own Generals. For Phaeton, as with all tyrants, his
own arrogance
will prove to be his downfall.
