Illustrations: URN' ADO

Urn' Ado is Ardath's mysterious advisor. No one is sure where he came from or why he is in Argon Falls, the only thing that is known for sure is that he came with words and ideas that captivated the people of Argon Falls. He speaks in a way that touches each person's darkest nature.

Illustrations: TOMO

Tomo is a raccoon. He is slightly on the cute and pudgy side. Tomo has the ability turn himself into any form he wants. He loves to play tricks and pranks on just about anybody, but he is too loveable for anyone to stay upset at him for very long. Tomo's real name is Palon and he is the younger brother of Ardath.

Illustrations: SURGAR

Illustrations: RACHAEL AND TRACI

Illustrations: JOU OTOUSAN

Jou is Hana's fifty-seven-year-old grandfather and grandmaster martial artist in his own right. Jou has forgotten more forms of martial arts than most people learn in their life. He came to America years ago because of his conversion to Christianity. He loves to carve and sell small wood carvings known as netsuke and teaches martial arts in his dojo, which is next to his house.

Illustrations: BRITTANY SUMMERS

Brittany is a thirteen-year-old girl with blond hair and green eyes. She loves movies, music, and boys and not necessarily in that order. She is very outgoing and loves to drag Hana all over the place with her. She sees it as her mission to convert Hana to an all-American girl. Her father, James Summers, is the pastor of the church Jou and Hana attend.

Illustrations: WORMHOLE

Kind and compassionate, Wormhole has the ability to create temporary tunnels in the fabric of space, instantaneously traveling from one place to another. He is able to use this ability on himself and, to a limited extent, on other objects, but doing so exhausts him greatly. A self-proclaimed 'realist', he also has a deep empathy for almost every living thing, fueled by his inquisitive scientist mind.

Illustrations: TAK/TACHYON

Daring, enigmatic, and fiercely loyal, Tak tends to let his actions speak for him. As a master of fighting arts, he uses his quarterstaff (which breaks into actual quarters) as his primary weapon against the dangers that must be faced as they travel across time and space. He also has the ability to create illusory constructs out of available light and matter particles (essentially a solid hologram) that keep his enemies off guard as he fights to protect his friends and complete their objective.

Illustrations: SLIPSTREAM

Slipstream is the leader of the TimeFlyz for a number of reasons, the least of which being her ability to slow down or speed up time for isolated objects. This ability allows her to move faster than the things around her or cause the things around her to slow time, giving her the chance to consider all options before making a decision. Levelheaded and competent, she displays confidence and strength, even when her doubts nag at her when the stakes are high.

Illustrations: NEXUS

Nexus is a portable computer housed in a robotic fly. The TimeFlyz are able to communicate with Nexus and use its various sensors and computational devices to enhance their own abilities, the ultimate ability being time travel.
