Line 49:
'''Julian Tifflor''', born 1961 A.D., gormless cadet who keeps getting pitched into the deep end.
* [[Accidental Hero]]
* [[Super Soldier]] : went through the [[Training Fromfrom Hell|Upanishad]] and was granted with the title [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Eternal Warrior]], which most autors tend to overlook.
* {{spoiler|[[Break the Cutie]]}} Recently forced to {{spoiler|walk for several million years through a white corridor of nothing, which made him start to behave like [[The Stoic]], and effectively turned him into a [[Time Abyss]].}}
 
Line 68:
 
'''Alaska Saedelaere''', born 3400 A.D., victim of a transporter accident that fused him with ''something else''
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: what he hides [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel|behind]] his [[White Mask of Doom|mask]].
* [[The Faceless]]
* [[Loners Are Freaks]]
Line 76:
 
'''Dao-Lin H'ay'''
* [[Catgirl]]
* [[Psychic Powers]]: weak telepathy, unless she is using an [[Upgrade Artifact]]
* [[Action Girl]]
Line 84:
* [[I Gave My Word]]: when Bostich gives his word, he sticks to it
* [[Photographic Memory]]: Graduate of the famous and dangerous Arkonide trial, the ARK SUMMIA.
* [[Badass Bookworm]] and a [[Gentleman and Aa Scholar]]: [[Cunning Linguist|Fluent in several old languages]], encyclopedic knowledge of Arkon's imperial history and court etiquette, and has impeccable manners if he wants to.
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: In his youth, Bostich was a gentle, erudite person and a dutiful son. Then, his family was murdered.
Line 91:
* [[Emperor Scientist]]: Sorta, as Bostich outsources the science part to his childhood friend and [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]] Aktakul.
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Determinator]]
* [[Heroic Willpower]]
* [[Dreaming of Things to Come]] / [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity]]: Bostich's logic sector, when first activated, exhibited [[Split Personality|multiple personality disorder]] and spoke to him only in visions and dreams until Bostich finally managed to [[Battle in Thethe Center of Thethe Mind|exorcise himself in a dream]] by killing all his "advisors" who had prophesied he would be emperor one day. Only afterwards was he able to hear the voice of his normal ''Extrasinn''. Years later, when he received his own immortality device, Bostich got confirmation that the same cosmic entity who had granted Rhodan immortality had been [[Cosmic Plaything|manipulating]] Bostich's dreams (and maybe his life) all those years ago.
* [[My Country, Right or Wrong]]: ''"For the might and glory of Arkon."''
* [[Worthy Opponent]] and [[Enemy Mine]] to Rhodan
Line 102:
* [[Shoot the Dog]] turned him into the [[Big Bad]]: During his darkest time, Bostich crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]] when he had a former friend (who had started a rival empire) tortured and executed as a traitor and all of the 20,000 enemy spaceships mercilessly destroyed ''after'' they had been shut down by a computer virus and were helplessly drifting in space - with the crews still in them. Shortly afterwards, he had the Terran minister of defense, Reginald Bull, abducted and [[Cold-Blooded Torture|tortured]] for information.
* [[Heartbroken Badass]]: Bostich considers himself a pragmatist, but he has the hidden heart of a romantic. Unfortunately, as a young man he fell in love with Atlan's daughter Jasmyne da Ariga although they only spent a few days together as a couple, and decades later he is [[Longing Look|still yearning for her]], despite the fact that she has rejected him and threatened to slit his throat if he continues on his dark path.
* [[Mind Rape]]: Which happened ''to'' Bostich when an evil newly ascended cosmic power named SEELENQUELL took over his mind and the minds of everyone on Arkon and forced Arkon into a direct war with Terra.
* [[Break the Haughty]]
* [[Heel Face Turn]] (see the entry in the main ''[[Perry Rhodan (Literature)|Perry Rhodan]]'' article), but oddly enough ''not'' due to [[Love Redeems]].
* [[The Unfettered]]: both as the [[Villain Protagonist]] and later as the elected President of the New Galacticum
* [[Lonely Atat the Top]]
* [[Married to Thethe Job]]: He's still single.
 
'''Monkey''' (actual name!), a human from a high-gravity world, a former Terran secret agent and trained assassin, leader of the ''New United Stars Organisation''.
