11/29/2012: Prospero Banderas, Human Monster Hunter
NAME: Prospero Basilius Banderas  SPECIES: Human  ORIGIN: Earth
Part of the first wave of the Voltraggi Uplift, Prospero’s refuge vessel was assaulted by a strange, monstrous entity while travelling between branes. Though he and a few others survived the attack, his family wasn’t so lucky. As a result of the attack, Prospero suffered 3rd degree burns, scarring him for life. Rescued and nursed back to health by the Dominion, Prospero now hunts across the Multiverse for the beast that killed his wife and daughters.

#16- Butch McClusky
Forget all you read in History books: Butch McClusky was THE first man in space. But you haven’t heard of him because NASA lost contact with him after his ship got caught in an unexpected comet’s gravity. He’s been lost for 60 years now, and he will return in some 20 years, having aged only 20 years, riding the same old tincan spacecraft he left Earth with, and thinking himself a hero.
Things will have changed quite a lot, though: when he boasts being the original inspiration for Flash Gordon, kids just won’t know what he’s talking about, and his tech skills will be totally outdated and useless. He will, however, receive compensation from the government, and spend his time telling his old- timer stories to anyone willing to hear and hitting on girls half his age.
And no, he hasn’t changed clothes in the last 80 years. Go figure.
#1 Gorillanaut
Gorillanaut Champion of the Cosmos!
This is the story of the first Gorilla launched into outer space in the American space program.
He was born on June 17th, 1956 in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. He was captured by animal trappers and sent to a sideshow in Coney Island New York. Three years later he was purchased by the United States Air Force and brought to the  Holloman Air Force Base Aeronautical Research Facility or H.A.F.B.A.R.F in Alamogordo, New Mexico.
Researchers started with a group of 29 chimps and 1 Gorilla as primate flight candidates at H.A.F.B.A.R.F After a series of intensive tests the gorilla beat out the chimps and began training for his space mission.
Beginning in July 1959, the three-year-old Gorilla was trained at H.A.F.B.A.R.F to do timed tasks in response to electric lights. In his pre-flight training, Gorillanaut was taught to push a button within two seconds of seeing a flashing red light; failure to do so would result in punishment in the form of a mild electric shock to his testicles. A correct response earned him a chocolate covered frozen banana from a hi-tech dispenser.
On January 31, 1961, Gorillanaut secured a position in Project Mercury Mission X-2 and was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida on a flight beyond the Van Ellen Belt to test radiation levels. The capsule was bombarded with massive doses of gamma rays and suffered a partial loss of the life support system and a fried communication panel during the flight. Luckily Gorillanaut’s space suit prevented him from suffering any harm.
The gamma rays broke the banana dispenser causing the entire stock of now gamma radiated frozen bananas to fall out. Sadly, Gorillanaut was so busy gobbling up six cases of bananas that he didn’t notice the flashing red light and missed his cue to push the control button. The space capsule bounced off the Earth’s atmosphere upon attempting re-entry and was hurled off into space.
Gorillanaut passed out after gorging himself with bananas. The damaged life support system put him into a state of suspended animation and for the next 50 years he drifted through deep space until his capsule finally orbited back to Earth in 2011 and crashed into the Kardashian’s house killing everyone inside.
As a result of eating gamma radiated frozen bananas Gorillanaut woke up with super intelligence and the ability to speak. He was hailed a hero and has since returned to adventuring in space as….
