## Main Characters

 **Adan "Izzy Rokku"** |  | Adan is a vampire-looking boy who mysteriously has the power to control the void, like a black hole, to his advantage.

## Comic Basis

Five teenagers begin to study in a school for superheroes. Each character had their own reasons for being in that school, as in the case of Healstom, who dreamed of attending that institution and becoming a famous hero. The characters often ended up getting into some trouble, and sought through their special abilities to solve the mysteries and problems that appeared to them.

The name "**G-Force**" derives from an event involving three of the main characters. On the first day of school, Healstom sought to impress his classmates, he then creates a plan to get everyone’s attention, asking Tangatatoa to create two portals, one on the ceiling and one on the floor, so that they were parallel, so Healstom along with Red Phantom, climbed a longboard and jumped into the portal, falling infinitely in a loop, acquiring speed due to gravity, ie increasing its "G-Force".

The goal was to achieve speed for when Tangatatoa moved one of the portals to the horizontal direction, Healstom and Red Phantom would be launched at a speed similar to that of a missile in front of the school.

## Storyline

The plot of the first arc of the story tells about a group of scientists who discovered a substance capable of increasing the capacity of "individualities", so the protagonists discover that their school is involved in a plan to be able to obtain this substance, G-Force then tries to figure out what’s going on while facing a mysterious group of villains known as the "Marduk Organization".

### Rowan Knight's Heroism

Calango, before knowing his RPG would be canon in the Paranormal Order universe, put some The Secret in the Forest easter eggs in a book inside the story "Rowan Knight's Heroism". This book was a puzzle within the story, in which boys should use information on certain pages in the book to continue investigations. The story was about an old hero named Rowan that visited a medieval village inside a region called Holy Cradle. There, he meets some persons, among them a tavernkeeper named César and a smoking man named Thiago. In addition, a young girl named Elizabeth is mentioned as someone that would know how to deal with the "greyish" beings, mentioning about the lusidii. In some moment of the plot, an asian man intercepts Rowan and the group asking for help, referencing Joui.

## Trivia

* G-Force's comic books are a tribute to an RPG organized by Calango during "The Secret in the Forest", that had as players Cellbit (as Healstom), LJoga (as Adan), Guaxinim (as Red Phantom), Leo Santi (as Tangatatoa) and Zero (as Thunder).
* Healstom's appearance is inspired by one of the alien races from the game Outer Wilds.
* Healstom was always very kind and had the principle to "always defend others". However, in a fury attack, he ends up killing the villain Abyss, who had kidnapped his mother, Manu Gavassi, after which he ends up becoming "Killstom", dropping his Atomic Flail and starting to use the "Lunar Scythe" as a weapon.
* Teacher Auron protected the characters without them knowing. An example of this is that, after the fight against Abyss in a multisport gym, Auron passed by and removed all evidence that could compromise young people after the fight. This prevented them from suffering more serious consequences for messing with villains even though they were just students.
* The RPG system used is Mutants & Masterminds.
* Arthur Cervero's art was used to replace the art of a character lost by Calango.
* Tangatatoa is inspired in the Maori culture. He also danced Haka.
* Hugo’s theory that Teacher Auron was a traitor is the same theory that Cellbit had during the campaign. However, it was discovered that the teacher was protecting the children, and it was revealed that the Headmaster was the true villain of the story.
* Despite LJoga's character being mysterious, in the first minutes of participation, Adan urinated on the classroom floor. This event made everyone very confused, given the nature of the action, so the moment became a joke within the story.
* Healstom and Red Phantom had a secret "game" in which Healstom punched Vitor’s face out of nowhere and he should be intangible not to be hit.
* The RPG theme was heavily influenced by the anime My Hero Academia.
* The designs and illustrations of all characters were made by Gabsu,, main artist of Paranormal Order: Initiation and previously, the Paranormal Order's team colorist.
* In Paranormal Order: Deconjuration, the name of the team "D-Force", decided by Kaiser, was an inspiration to the name of the comic, being "D" an abbreviation to Deconjuration, the central point of the investigation made by the team, at that moment.
* The comic book creator's name, Thiago Ouvias, is an easter egg to Calango's own name, Thiago Elias.
* Hugo participated, along with Arthur, in a contest made by the publisher of the comic to create a new main character. The two created the hero Angel of the Night, in reference to Kaiser, and won the contest.
* In the 12th episode of Calamity, while Team Vultures is on the plane to return to Brazil, Arthur Cervero starts to watch G-Force's new movie.
* The Angel of the Night was introduced during the "Inverted Red Phantom" arc.
