Ridiculously Simplified Synopsis edit
Characters/People edit
- #77 (Ian Culp): Ian was a family man who worked for a company that manufactured androids for the general public, but a government project imprisoned him without trial for unknown reasons. He's married to a French ex-pat named Didiane and the two have a daughter named Sabrina. After being torn away from his family, he's re-assigned a new identity as #77 at the Home compound, where he's tasked with repairing a broken down android named Gary.
- #34 (Anthony Block): Anthony Block has had a winding road that led to his incarceration, which included a stint in the Air Force. He shares a close friendship with #42 (former journalist T.H. Stockton) and appears to always be singing to himself. He has a mysterious past that may be connected to the goings-on of the Home compound.
- #42 (T.H. Stockton): A gonzo journalist who claims to have been imprisoned because he was friends with "the superman." The exact nature of Stockton's "superman" hypothesis isn't clear. Prior to his incarceration, Stockton lived in a compound of his own in Oregon, had three children, and was married at least twice.
