It is easy to become too focused on
story development and allow your characters to become paper-thin
cliches that mirror common stereotypes. It is also easy to try so
hard to avoid this that you swing too far the other direction and end
up with characters so extreme and unrealistic that they are
unbelievable, ruining your audience's suspension of disbelief. There
are some techniques that can help you create interesting and
believable characters, however. A simple starting approach involves
imagining a friend or family member--someone different in personality
from yourself that you know well--and thinking about what that person
would do in the circumstances you created.
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
