Archimedes Von Ahnerabe (Dawn 5)

## Archimedes Von Ahnerabe(Dawn 3)

Art by Annie Zhu.

In Dawn 5, **Archimedes Von Ahnerabe** is a cyborg and good friend of Graelyn Scythes, having worked for Dawn and travelled with Lady Aesculapius in her company.

## Biography

Born on Ahnerabe Station, Archimedes grew up believing that humanity had largely died on Earth, and the inhabitants of the Station were the only hope for humanity as the handful of humans left on Earth died off. This was a lie by Manuel Salzar to keep the occupants of the Station docile. Unfortunately, this didn't work, as a civil war broke out on the station leaving Arch and his family the only survivors. A group of Rimwards fleeing Olympia discovered the station, and their attempts to profit off their find resulted in their own deaths, and the deaths of Arch's mother, father, and sister.

Arch went to Earth, where he quickly discovered that everything he'd been told was a lie, and was hunted down by Ares before being knocked into the ocean where he was discovered by Graelyn Scythes at Project Atlantis. The pair went on a series of journeys through alternate realities together, before deciding to join Dawn. Arch now resides on Spiral. Archimedes and Graelyn Scythes once went on a mission for *Dawn* to a moon chasing something and Archimedes was taken, leading Graelyn to rescue him from the past by infiltrating a World War II special operations mission. On another occasion, Arch and Graelyn travelled with Aesculapius for a time. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)

When the factions of the 10,000 Dawns began fighting over the Book of Books, Archimedes and Graelyn befriended Rachel Edwards and prevented the Book from being taken by anyone. (PROSE: *Rachel Survived*)

Arch was turned to fiction during Auteur's attack on the 10,000 Dawns. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)

Brightstone Farm

**Brightstone Farm**, located in a peaceful meadow, was the home of Redacted Pinorva in an unfinished universe. It had a barn and a main farmhouse. The farm, and the entire world in which it existed, were destroyed by the Tourist during her rampage across the multiverse in an effort to get her creator to take notice of her once more. (PROSE: *Breaking the Narrative*) She fully expected that the Firmament would undo all her damage to the universe. (PROSE: *Remembrance of the Judicator*)
Vo'lach

Template:Infobox Species
The **Vo'lach** were an advanced ancient race who originated from Vo'lach Prime.

## Biology

The Vo'lach were four feet tall and six feet wide, covered with bright coloured neon fur and with quizzical faces. Each one had its own unique plush antenna. Though they had an aura of "friendly podgy babyness", they were strongly muscled and could bend most building materials with their claws. (PROSE: *Ghost Devices*)

## Culture

Template:Section stub
Vo'lach typically lived in spacious arched domes surrounded by vast meadows which were partially holographic. Giant telephones were capable of rising out of the grounds of these houses. Parts of the surrounding garden were in anti-gravity boxes that bobbed up and down in a "green ballet" that could entertain a human such as Bernice Summerfield for about half an hour. (PROSE: *Ghost Devices*)

## History

### Before the Spire

The Vo'lach travelled around the galaxy and mapped it in the distant past. (PROSE: *Ghost Devices*)

In *In Search of Ancient Mu*, 25th century "archaeologist" Frans Nils Kryptosa claimed the inhabitants of Vo'lach Prime had visited and influenced the human race in the distant past. (PROSE: *Down*)

### The Spire & ensuing chaos

Circa 10,000,000 BC, the Vo'lach built the Spire on Canopus IV to try to balance the universe and prevent its heat death, but after activating it, they received a vision of the future so horrible that they collectively committed racial suicide.

However, due to the actions of Bernice Summerfield millions of years later, planetcracker missiles came through the Spire at its opening. Upon studying the molecules of the bombs and realising they were sent by their descendants, the Vo'lach concluded that actions must have led to disastrous consequences; to preempt these consequences, they abandoned science and returned to nature. By exploring the powers of the mind they gained the ability to mentally project their images of peace and joy, educating species such as the Veltrochni and having incredible effects on the politics of the galaxy, even making suns smile. One accidental effect was the destruction of Earth before its discovery of space travel.

In this timeline, no missiles were sent back in time to destroy the Spire. This resulted in a new timeline much like the original, but due to subatomic randomness, the planetcracker bombs were slightly more efficient, and no molecules were left to analyse. The Vo'lach concluded that they were being attacked by an unknown future power from another planet, so they built super-efficient war machines that, over a hundred thousand years, circled the universe and destroyed every species, including the Vo'lach themselves.

Since in this timeline no missiles were sent back in time to destroy the Spire, a new iteration was created, over and over again, until there had been over a thousand timelines of varying silliness. The catastrophe was observed by David Foreman and another Watchmaker from behind walls of solidified time; finally, Foreman changed the timeline so that the bombs were never sent, restoring the Vo'lach's original fate.

Prototype (short story)

***Prototype*** was the third story in the 2020 *Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns* April Fools' Day event. It was written by James Wylder in second-person perspective, and was written directly from an outline of the series bible for Pathway's version of *10,000 Dawns* created by Wylder in high school. As such, rather than be set within the timeframe of *The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns*, this story was essentially a glimpse of Pathway's adventures within her own world.

## Plot

An individual simply referred to as “you” wakes up in front of a strange scenery: two pyramids in a hourglass shape, surrounded by an increasing number of prehistoric reptiles. They soon encounter a mysterious woman called Pathway who explains that an ideological war is being fought between the Infinite and the Numbered over the Creation Machine, which is now going out of control — and they recognise both Pathway and 789 as members of their own classroom back home! As they dodge the attacks of 789 and of a newly-generated T-rex, Pathway invites “you” to go save the universe with her…

### Characters

* Pathway
* “You”
* 789
* The Numbered

### References

* The Creation Machine is described as “a gigantic… thing, like two pyramids placed bottom to bottom, with a wheel of spikes sandwiched in the middle”. 10,000 worlds were created using the Creation Machine.

### Continuity

* Lady Aesculapius faced Lady Frostbite in the 10,000 Dawns in PROSE: *Catching Frostbite*, the Christmas special of *Lady Aesculapius* Series 1, and had earlier encountered the Numbered in an earlier episode, PROSE: *We Were Summoned*.
* Pathway later investigates a “potential Numbered connection” in Dawn 789 in PROSE: *Remembrance of the Judicator*.

## Behind the scenes

*Prototype* was released on April the 1st, 2020 for free on the *James Wylder, Writer* website.

Nathan Solano

**Nathan Solano** is a resident of the Prime Universe. He was born on Earth in the year 2450 and given up for adoption by his birth mother. In 2452, he was adopted by a Centro Military veteran, Captain Salvador Solano, and his husband, Carlos Duarte. Because one of his adoptive fathers was in the army, Nathan was inspired to join the army himself when he turned 18, and he did so just in time for the Martian Revolution, where he fought on Centro's side against the revolutionaries.

During the Revolution, Nathan realized that Centro was not the right side for him to be on. He was inspired by Donovan MacLeod, and soon joined with him in opposing Centro's brutality. They led a mutiny together, and when they returned to Earth, they helped form the Working Class Heroes to continue the fight against Centro. Nathan was persuaded into taking a leadership role in the group alongside Donovan, and together, they helped guide the Working Class Heroes to become a formidable group of trained activists. They laid the groundwork for the much larger revolution that was to come.

### Relationships

Nathan is polyamorous, and is in a relationship with both Donovan MacLeod and Lucia Odegaard MacLeod.
Multiverse

**“Multiverse”** was a term to describe a collection of universes. The exact usage varied; sometimes “the multiverse” was used to refer to all possible realities as a whole, while other examples of usage referred to multiverses as ordered collections of universes within a wider “omniverse”, so that the 10,000 Dawns were “a multiverse” within the larger scope of multidimensional reality.
Jason (The Leader of the Band)

## Jason

**Jason** was one of the Resident's pet dogs.

## Biography

When the Tourist, Miranda, Shona Daniels, Pathway and Ashlyn Oswin visited the Resident in one of the houses she owned inside the “finished” 10,000 Dawns, she had two pet dogs with her: Jason and a Golden Retriever. Both dogs immediately took a liking to Shona, licking her face profusely. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)

## Behind the scenes

The Resident having two dogs, one called Jason and another one only ever called “the Golden Retriever”, may be a pun of sorts on the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece, also alluded to in the title of the *Lady Aesculapius* episode *Jason and the Astronauts*.
The Eternal King

After the destruction of his people in a great war, Redacted Pinorva was, in the narrative of his unfinished universe, destined to usurp the throne of **the Eternal King**, allowing him to paradoxically ensure his own survival by going back in time thousands of years and raising his younger self (under the moniker of “Uncle”). (PROSE: *Breaking the Narrative*)
Registered Clawmarks (short story)

*Registered Clawmarks* was the original seventh story for Lady Aesculapius Series One. Originally acting as a prequel to *We Believe What's On TV*, it was eventually replaced with *A Possible Prelude to an Ending* in 2023 and has been declared decanonized by Arcbeatle Press.

## Cast

* Lady Aesculapius
* Jason Jackson
* Alexander
* Captain Whiskers
* Cheeky the Musical Hamster
* Armelle the Sad Ladybug
* The Old One
* Dyson Wall

## Synopsis

Lady Aesculapius awakens in an office on Dyson's Dawn, to the sound of a recorded speech by Dyson Wall.
Sandifer

**Elizabeth Sandifer** was an author whose books still existed in the version of reality created by Auteur during her scheme to reduce the 10,000 Dawns to fiction and use them in the War in Heaven.

## Biography

Sandifer was the author of *Neoreaction a Basilisk*. F.I.D.O admired her work, and told Graelyn Scythes about Sandifer's influence on pop-culture criticism in the 21st century. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)

## Behind the scenes

Elizabeth Sandifer is a real-life author and critic, who, aside from *Neoreaction a Basilisk*, has also written extensively on the history of *Doctor Who*. It is unclear in whic of the 10,000 Dawns Sandifer's works originally existed before they ended up inside the libraries of Auteur's town.

### Notes & References

Ze Lee

```
Ze (zay) Lee was a member of the Rigger's Union. Born on the Hold and orphaned at a young age, she was raised by several members of the Union, and as a result adopted their superstious beliefs.

```

## Biography

Ze was sent to the Magellan to join the Riggers already stationed there for project work (Rigged Game). She soon encountered Aya Rodriguez, who stole Ze's safety harness to retrieve her twin sister's corpse from a cargo bay on the ship.

She later encountered Hickory Mallory and Josie in a bar on the ship. Soon after her arrival, Ze found herself being pursured by a Man in Black, who was intent on killing her after she accidentally witnessed them during their business dealings with the Vigilance.

The Man in Black later tracked Ze and Aya to Ze's apartment and attacked them. The two survived the attempt and fled to Mallory's bar. The Man in Black followed them there and proceeded to attack Ze, Aya, and Josie, breaking Aya's arm and attempting to strangle Josie. Mallory then arrived and shot the Man in Black in the head, killing them.

Ze later returned to the Hold. She made a cameo appearance in No Holidays, Please.

## Trivia/Behind the scenes

* Ze is a Jewish trans woman
* She is implied to have a crush on Aya
The 10,000 Dawns

**The 10,000 Dawns** is a collection of roughly 10,000 universes that are connected due to being different versions of the Prime Universe, which sits at their center. The 10,000 Dawns, often abbreviated to 10KD, are unusual and far more vast than the name implies in that, while they are a part of the multiverse, they are their own "bubble" multiverse, each being interconnected by the Bifrost Path and cared for by a species called the Firmament.

A list of Dawns can be found here.

## History

### Creation

The 10,000 Dawns was a portion of the multiverse which was constructed and controlled by the Firmament. (REF: *Malflick the Wizard's Repost Emporeum*, [1]) Within Pathway's story in the 10,000 Drafts, she believed that “10,000 worlds” had been created using the Creation Machine by the Infinite, (PROSE: *Prototype*) her timeline's equivalents of the Firmament. (PROSE: *The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns Big Takeover!*) The Superiors of the Totality challenged the 10,000 Dawns' right to exist but were reluctantly convinced to let it be. (PROSE: *Winter's View*)
You (Prototype)

## “You”

**“You”** were a hero mentored by Pathway in her original narrative within the 10,000 Drafts.

## Biography

### Origins

Due to her story having been conceived as a roleplaying game, the identity of Pathway's hero protégé was in constant flux; (PROSE: *The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns Big Takeover!*) they were simply “you”. You attended classes with Pathway and 789, who had disguised themselves as ordinary human, before being pulled to the planet of the Creation Machine via teleportation. (PROSE: *Prototype*)

### Adventures with Pathway

There, you escaped from 789 and a Tyrannosaurus Rex thanks to Pathway, and agreed to join her in her quest to oppose the Numbered and protect the 10,000 worlds created thanks to the Creation Machine. (PROSE: *Prototype*)

You once shared an adventure with Pathway hiding from “shambling corpses” in a ruined building, on which occasion you tried to ask Pathway about her life. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)

### Legacy

After escaping from the 10,000 Drafts, Pathway looked back wistfully on her relationship to “you”; having realised the metafictional truth about “you”, she nevertheless still wanted to hold on to the emotional reality of her feelings about you, out of reach as their target might forever remain. She related the experience to a nostalgic ballad taught to her as a child by her mother, whose main character knew her beloved had died at sea but still chose to live each day as if they might return at any moment, because the love and hope helped her keep going. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)

## Behind the scenes

The reader is invited to imagine themselves as the “you” of PROSE: *Prototype*, in accordance with the original form of the premise as a roleplaying game.

Gideon

Godfather **Gideon** was a high-ranking member of Faction Paradox during the War in Heaven in the Totality. Gideon was a Superior. His Faction Paradox mask was that of a silver human skull. (PROSE: *A Bloody (And Public) Domaine*) He dressed immaculately. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)

He was House cousins with Auteur; the two of them abandoned the Homeworld to join the Faction. (PROSE: *A Bloody (And Public) Domaine*) Gideon joined the Faction earlier than Auteur. When Auteur was left skinless and dying following an encounter with Life, Gideon pleaded that Auteur be allowed to join the Faction so he could be saved. (PROSE: *Going Once, Going Twice).*
Centro Space Navy

The Centro Space Navy is Centro's primary method of enforcing it's supremacy throughout the Sol System.

The Space Navy is broken up into battle fleets, which each operate under the Admirals who have a large amount of independence in their decisions. Sandra Ng and Melinda Talon were some of Centro's Admirals.

Cornelia Carthage was appointed Fleet Admiral of the entire Centro Military during the Martian Revolution.

The Centro Space Navy features several subdivisions aside from the main organization of it's battle fleets, including the Centro Marines of which Zhang Han was a part for ground combat, as well as the Exploratory Fleet which specialized in non-combat exploration mapping, and rescue missions, of which Jason Jackson was a part of.

The Navy's ships are built at the Wright Brothers Shipyard, with the gigantic Praetorian Class Dreadnoughts being their most powerful vessels.
Gods of Warfarin

The **Gods of Warfarin** were a dimensionally-active rock band. Despite their grandstanding, their talents were mediocre at best.

## History

The Gods of Warfarin were among the contestants in the “battle of the bands” organised by the interdimensional outlet known as the View. They went up against the Forgotten Heroines led by the Tourist, playing just before them, and although they derided the “girlies” before they started playing, they proved much poorer musicians. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)
Quoth

Template:Infobox SpeciesThe **Quoth** were a subatomic sentient species, no larger than a string of quarks. They had the power to alter matter. (PROSE: *So Vile a Sin*)

They lived at least eighteen thousand times faster than a human. Their original homeworld was a spinning cylinder of neutronium, a light-day long, whose rotation distorted time. When the cylinder was destroyed (PROSE: *The Death of Art*) by an N-Form, (PROSE: *Damaged Goods*) the Quoth drifted through space until they encountered Earth. (PROSE: *The Death of Art*)

There, they found the only source for their birthing materials was inside the human brain, created as a side-effect of psionics. Ironically, the extraction process stimulated the psychic nodes in the host's brain, increasing their psionic ability.

Once freed from Montague's enslavement, the Seventh Doctor took them to a new home, the neutronium remains of a first-generation star at the galactic core. (PROSE: *The Death of Art*)
Backgammon Jenny

Backgammon Jenny is an agent for both the Index in the Prime Universe, and Dawn in the wider 10,000 Dawns. In the Index, she has risen to be one of the Librarian's Pages, and in Dawn is the leader of the Artemis Corp.

Jenny is an expert at combat, and usually employs a katana, often while using rollerblades to zoom around her opponents.

As a member of two powerful groups, Jenny has participated in many conflicts including the Prime Universe Incursion, where she killed the head of the Great Assimilation's Intelligence division, Memnor.
Rachel Edwards

Template:Infobox Individual**Rachel Edwards** was a journalist who reported on Matt Nelson's Presidential campaign for the *Sunday Herald*. She also ran the blog radicalrachel.dreamjournal.com.

Before she worked for the *Sunday Herald*, she wrote a column in the *New Progressive* magazine, but she lost the job when they cut the page count. While she worked there, some "creepy blokes" started following her and sending her pictures of their genitalia. One of them sent her photoshopped pictures of her decapitated head with his penis in her mouth.

While she was shadowing the Nelson campaign, she started discovering strange emails on her computer that warned or threatened her about other girls near the campaign her age that had died, including Louise Perry and Joanne Nyman. Rachel tried finding the source of these emails, but they appeared to come from her own account. At the same time, Dave Larsen began leaving her voicemails about the pattern of dead girls. He tried to warn her once, but she threatened to call the police and he ran away.

After this, Rachel's friend Janine Hanning died, convincing Rachel that Dave was right about a serial killer inside the campaign. However, when she told the *Sunday Herald* editor John Lyman about her suspicions, he told her to focus on the campaign, so she quit the job to work full-time on researching the murders, promising to send them to the FBI after returning to London.

Rachel was bisexual. At one point, she met the girl of her dreams in a bar and went back to her room, but the Shift overwrote it because "the author's really no good at sex scenes." (PROSE: *Head of State*)

A year after her coverage of the American election, Rachel became involving in an conflict over the Book of Books between powers from the 10,000 Dawns. (PROSE: *Rachel Survived*)

Template:NameSort
Dyson's Dawn

**Dyson's Dawn**, better known as the **Dyson Sphere**, was a bubble universe that was used by multiple different groups.

It first became active after an older version of Lady Aesculapius came into contact with Dyson, the physical manifestation of the Sphere. The two used it to entrap people from other universes, most outside the Dawns, in order to lure people who saw them as stories into the Sphere and steal their life-force. Lady Aesculapius and Jason Jackson, however, were able to intervene and stop the plan. (PROSE: *A Possible Prelude to an Ending*)

At some point J.P. Barnum purchased the rights to it from Dyson, allowing him to turn it into a vast recording studio. The dimension began to collapse in on itself once Barnum was removed from it, eventually winking out of existence. (PROSE: *We Believe What's On TV*)
The Vigilance

The Vigilance was a government with a slave-based economy founded on the moon Titania. It was destroyed by the Centro Systems Military, led by Commodore Cornelia Carthage, in 2451. Remnants of it lingered on after it's official destruction however. They were very bad people. No really, they're bad guys. We know this is a big "shades of grey" setting, but the Vigilance are not nice.

**History**

The Vigilance was founded by early Rimward settlers seeking independence from Centro Systems, who discovered that enslaving their neighbors made it easier to survive without Centro support. This was later rationalized into a culture that idolized older slave-holding cultures as a way to justify the horrors they continued to perpetrate on the rest of the Rimwards.

The Vigilance made an incursion into Centro territory in 2434, attempting to raid an undefended Mars for slaves. Commodore Melinda Talon scrambled a fleet of in-repair and drydocked ships in order to repel the attack successfully, for which she was promoted to admiral. The event left Mars afraid, and scarred a young Zhang Han as she had overheard her parents discussing if killing her was better than letting her be taken by the Vigilance.

Using slave labor, the Vigilance was able to terraform Titania into an Earth-like environment, allowing for their slaveholding classes to live in luxury. The head of the Vigilance was the Patriarch.

The Vigilance kept their security locked down in The Citadel, which also housed the most heinous place of entertainment in the solar system: Torture Paradise. The crimes committed there are too awful to be listed on a family friendly wiki. Torture Bots were utilized there.

**Downfall**

Centro Colonel Zhang Han led a commando force to infiltrate the Vigilance on Titania and took down it's orbital defenses by infiltrating the Citadel, and coordinating a slave revolt at the same time Commodore Cornelia Carthage began landing Centro Marines on the moon. The downfall of the government was swift, and the higher ups who survived the revolution were tried and hung, including the Patriarch.

Lawrence Landis worked for the vigilance, but had been left to die in Magellan's Rat Maze during the revolution, and survived to work for the Index.

Sympathizers, and members who were not on Titania during the revolution, did survive and continue to operate in secret.
Aya Rodriguez

Aya Rodriguez was a scavenger on the Magellan. She and her twin sister Ana Rodriguez became scavengers at a young age after their parents died. Aya was partially raised by Hickory Mallory and has an on-again-off-again relationship with Josie. She later took up bounty hunting.

## Biography

Aya and Ana were scavenging in a structurally weak section of the Magellan when an unauthorized spaceship docking caused part of the floor to give out (Rigged Game). Aya was unable to save Ana from falling to her death.

She later encountered Ze Lee and stole her safety harness, using it to retrieve Ana's corpse from an abandoned cargo hold. Unbeknownst to Aya, the cargo hold was being used by the Vigilance to store a shipment of slaves. Soon after, she found herself being pursued by a Man in Black.

The Man in Black later tracked Aya and Ze to Ze's apartment and attacked them. The two survived the attempt and fled to Mallory's bar. The Man in Black followed them there and proceeded to attack Ze, Aya, and Josie, breaking Aya's arm and attempting to strangle Josie. Mallory then arrived and shot the Man in Black in the head, killing them.

Aya then made arrangements for Ana's funeral.

Several months after the events of Rigged Game, Aya took up bounty hunting with Josie as her partner (No Holidays, Please). Their first job involved tracking down Lady Aesculapius and Blanche Combine. Aya and Josie then interrupted a meeting between the pair and a trio of Men in Black. Lady Aesculapius offered them a ride off the Magellan in her Factory of Crystal as a reward, with Aya choosing to go to Mars.
Breaking the Narrative (short story)

***Breaking the Narrative*** was the second story in the 2020 *Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns* April Fools' Day event. It was written by James Hornby.

## Plot

It's a fine evening in Brightstone Farm as Uncle prepares to cook Redacted Pinorva his favorite meal to congratulate the boy for foiling the Xiz invasion and repairing Uncle's tractor — even if Uncle appears to have forgotten what Redacted's favorite meal *is*.

However, this is the time the Tourist and her friends choose to interfere in the affairs of this world; materialising inside the (locked) barn, they are forced to blast their way out using a Zolar ray gun. They soon burst into the family dinner of two, and explain that like Uncle and Redacted, they have been “neglected by their creator”. Upset that the Tourist's party have disrupted the narrative, and thereby the time-loop, Uncle reveals the truth to Redacted: he is in fact Redacted's future self, come back thousands of years into the future to mentor his younger self and ensure his survival through a war fated to destroy the rest of their people.

The Tourist soon announces her intent to destroy Uncle and Redacted's reality as a ploy to get their creator's attention. Pathway tries to object, not having expected this level of destruction, but the Tourist brushes her off and sets the mechanism running. The five adventurers watch as hell begins to break loose, spaceships crashing from the heavens, before departing as the world ends.

God (10,000 Drafts)

## Gods(10,000 Drafts)

In one of the 10,000 Drafts, the **Gods** were a coherent and very-much-real race of powerful beings, similar to the Firmament of the 10,000 Dawns, the Time Lords of the Totality, or the Elders or Infinite of other Drafts.

## History

Within their unfinished universe, the Gods were led by Zeus and they were opposed by the heroic dimensional traveller Miranda. (PROSE: *The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns Big Takeover!*)

## Behind the scenes

As suggested by the metafictional nature of *The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns*, it was indeed planned at one point in development by James Wylder that variations on the Greco-Roman Gods play the role of sci-fi god-figures in what would become *10,000 Dawns*.
Richard Nixon

Richard Milhous Nixon was the 37th President of the Former United States of America, and frequently ran into time travelers and aliens. He was not a good person.

Graelyn Scythes and Archimedes Von Ahnerabe prevented his assassination (and the murder of an entire auditorium) by Blanche Combine of Dusk during his re-election campaign.

Nixon was once debriefed by government agents about his interactions with time travelers, but he lied so much it was hard to make out the truth. He met Mr. Scratch in a Denny's.

Nixon was later visited by Lady Aesculapius and Blanche on Christmas Eve after he had resigned the presidency, so that Blanche could apologize for trying to murder him. Nixon refused the apology, and Aesc gave him coal in return.

He referenced having met "those British" time travelers.

Wen-D

WeN-D was a popular AI created by Talinata Softworks in 2190, with the project headed by Alton Dragonet . WeN-D has gone on to be used in products ever since it's release, and is the base code for nearly every AI since.

The logo for Wen-D was designed by Talinata founder Heirum J. Whitehead's young child.

A WeN-D AI was the AI on the Centro Sleeper Ship Van Winkle that took June and Heinrich to Triton to witness the 2227 Incident.
Anya Hypercube

**Anya Hypercube** is a member of the Hypercube Family of Titan, in the Outer Rim. Her family owns and runs the Cube2Hypergang, which is primarily a shipping company. The gang is led by Anya's father, Michelangelo Hypercube, and his wife, Geraldine "JackBox" McGraw Hypercube, and its membership is mostly made up of the fourteen Hypercube children. They are one of the largest families on the Rim.

Anya is most interested in engineering, and when she's not doing something for Cube2Hypergang, she prefers to spend most of her time modifying her mechanical arm and leg or creating new things out of mechanical parts. She also likes going on adventures, a hobby which often gets her into trouble.

Some of Anya's adventures are detailed in *Death and Doubling Cubes.*

### Family

Anya is the biological daughter of Michelangelo Hypercube and Jade Darkshadow. Jade and Michelangelo had a toxic relationship, which ended with Jade abandoning Michelangelo and the infant Anya. The heartbreak and betrayal caused Michelangelo to never want to talk about Jade, resulting in Anya growing up not knowing who her biological mother was.

She was raised by Michelangelo alone at first, until he married Geraldine "JackBox" McGraw, at which point Anya gained a stepmom and a stepbrother, Ulysses Hypercube, Geraldine's child from a previous marriage. She later gained several half siblings as well.

Anya enjoyed having a large family, but deep down, she always wanted to know who her biological mother had been, and what happened to her.

Axastyakis

Template:Character stub
Template:Infobox Individual
Cousin **Axastyakis** was a member of Faction Paradox who came from a tribe of bone-faced aliens who lived on rock-pods. In his youth, he became skilled at controlling blood. His tribe attacked Faction Paradox, thinking the cultists a mockery of their race, and were mostly killed, leading Axastyakis to join the Faction.

He was initially the youngest member of a small Faction cabal with Cá Bảy Màu, Mullion, and Hole, but was replaced in that position by Amara when she joined. (PROSE: *What Keeps Their Lines Alive*)

He created the C-form loa, which lived inside his body, from his and Amara's blood.

For a time, Axastyakis was assigned to live in Auteur's Town along with the rest of his cabal and a few hundred more Faction agents. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)
Template:NameSort
Mullion

Template:Character stub
Template:Infobox Individual
Cousin **Mullion** was a member of Faction Paradox who failed to attain the rank of "Mother" despite being a Homeworlder. She wore traditional armour made from Yssgaroth-tainted bones of Homeworlders from an alternative timeline. Her shadow-weapon was a flatbow and arrow.

Mullion claimed to have joined the Faction before the start of the War in Heaven. As a Cousin, she fought "the sick Shed Scales alongside runagates and aconites" and lived through the fall of the Eleven-Day Empire and the drafting of the false Venue Accords. She eventually became part of a small Faction cabal with Amara, Axastyakis, Cá Bảy Màu, and Hole. (PROSE: *What Keeps Their Lines Alive*)

For a time, Mullion was assigned to live in Auteur's Town along with the rest of her cabal and a few hundred more Faction agents. (PROSE: *White Canvas*)

To prove herself, Mullion went on a personal crusade to murder all her past and future selves. Mullion got distracted at one point in this crusade and was almost killed by a Nambiro, but was saved by Amara's presence. (PROSE: *What Keeps Their Lines Alive*)
Blanche Combine

Blanche Combine is an alternate version of Graelyn Scythes, teamed up with an alternate Archimedes named Apollonius, who was a member of Dusk. Blanche would have grown up to found the organization, until Archimedes Von Ahnerabe convinced her to take a different course in life, causing Dusk as she knew it to never have existed. Her alternate Arch decided to go off on his own. As a member of Dusk, Blanche committed several murders, and attempted to assassinate Richard Nixon and the King of Abyssinia but was thwarted both times. Luckily, all of her murders were retroactively prevented from having happened, but she still felt guilt over them.

Graelyn and Arch linked Blanche up with Lady Aesculapius, who took her on a journey to redeem herself. On this journey, she tried to apologize to Nixon, but he refused the apology.

Like most alternate Graelyns, Blanche was born in Moscow, but spent part of her formative years in Annapolis.

Blanche first appeared in the Dusk Cycle.
The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns (series)

Art by Bri Crozier.

***The Forgotten Heroines of 10,000 Dawns*** was a prose series which served as the 2020 *10,000 Dawns* April's Fools' Day event, with its seven original installments (forming on story arc) released periodically throughout the day of April the 1st, 2020 on the *James Wylder, Writer* website. On July the 19th, a book version expanded with three additional stories was released on Kindle.

Among those stories were at least two crossovers, on top of the interference between early drafts of various elements of *10,000 Dawns* and the current form of the setting, which constituted the basics of the idea. *Should Auld Acquaintance Be Forgot* saw the characters once more side-stepping into the Totality (the *Doctor Who* universe), though in an implicit, non-copyright-infringing way, and *Remembrance of the Judicator* saw the Forgotten Heroines foiling a scheme by the Collective of the Retconning Crocodiles, from *The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids*, to take over the 10,000 Dawns.

## Synopsis

The Tourist, Pathway and Miranda have escaped the 10,000 Drafts and recruited Shona (of Dawn 6) and Ashlyn Oswin (of Dawn 5) for a fun-loving rampage throughout the 10,000 Dawns. The Firmament had better hang on to their Reset Button, or the Dawns will never be the same again — but in the turmoil, can the five Forgotten Heroines find themselves a new, stable place in the multiverse?

## Stories

Note: stories marked with a “**\***” are exclusive to the collected edition and were not released during the original April Fools' Day event.

Pauline Lamarque

**Pauline Lamarque** is a resident of the Prime Universe. She was born in Paris and lives in London, on Earth. She moved to London to attend the Nakatomi Institute of Business and Technology, a prestigious university which was founded and run by Centro Systems.

While Pauline was at school, the War for Mars took place, and as a result, many of her classes were interrupted by anti-war protesters on her campus. She joined the movement herself when her friend Nathan Solano returned from Mars telling tales of a mutiny and of Centro's war crimes. Together with Nathan and five other friends, Pauline helped create the Working Class Heroes, an activist group focusing on fighting Centro's supremacy at home.

Pauline took an anonymous role in the Working Class Heroes, opting to manage their website and social media presence and stay out of the limelight. Her reason for this was that she was in business school, and she was trying to get a job inside Centro Systems so she could try to change them from the inside. She knew that if her name was associated with a group like the Working Class Heroes, she would never be allowed the kind of access inside Centro that she wanted. Contributing to Working Class Heroes projects behind the scenes was the perfect compromise, a setup which served her well for many years.

*A Possible Prelude to an Ending* acts a sequel to this story.

Ziggy Stardust

When the Tourist made her fellow Forgotten Heroines form a band, she had Pathway dress up in an “absolutely ridiculous” glam outfit including glitter in her hair, glue-on stars under her eyes, a white-and-blue jumpsuit; she noted that the outfit made her feel “like **Ziggy Stardust**”. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)
Birthdays Are Made For Memories (short story)

*Birthdays Are Made For Memories* was a free story published on Arcbeatle Press' website, to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the franchise.

## Plot

Graelyn Scythes and Archimedes Von Ahnerabe are stuck due to a plague. This is unfortunate for Graelyn, as she had plans to celebrate her birthday. Their residence is invaded by Elliott Jo Jordan, who is angry at Graelyn for supposedly stealing his internship at Project Atlantis. He is then thrown out the door by Archimedes.

Archimedes then presents Graelyn with a laptop, where multiple people from Graelyn's past wish her a happy birthday.
The Resident's Golden Retriever

**A Golden Retriever** was one of the Resident's pet dogs.

## Biography

When the Tourist, Miranda, Shona Daniels, Pathway and Ashlyn Oswin visited the Resident in one of the houses she owned inside the “finished” 10,000 Dawns, she had two pet dogs with her: Jason and a Golden Retriever. Both dogs immediately took a liking to Shona, licking her face profusely. (PROSE: *The Leader of the Band*)

## Behind the scenes

The Resident having two dogs, one called Jason and another one only ever called “the Golden Retriever”, may be a pun of sorts on the legend of Jason and the Golden Fleece, also alluded to in the title of the *Lady Aesculapius* episode *Jason and the Astronauts*.
789

**789** was an agent of the Numbered who worked against the Infinite agent Pathway in Pathway's universe, within the 10,000 Drafts.

## Character Overview

### Personality

789 was devoted to the cause of Lady Frostbite and the Numbered against the Infinite, believing that theirs was the noble, reasonable side while the Infinite were idealistic fools who would doom reality. He and “you” generally got along during his undercover work in “your” reality. (PROSE: *Prototype*)

### Physical appearance

In his student disguise, “you” knew 789 as a “grungy guy” with stubble. As an agent of the Numbered wore wearing a grey uniform with the number 789 on the breast. (PROSE: *Prototype*)
Oh, there he is too. He bursts through the bushes, a bulky rifle in hand. It looks like something from a sci-fi movie. He is. This detail becomes more notable when Pathway draws her sword (!) from her back, and points it at him.

## Biography

789 confronted Pathway and “you” on the planet created by the Creation Machine was its own place of rest. He was unable to convince you to join his side, as a T-rex produced by the Machine intervened. 789 shot at it multiple time with the green blasts of his energy gun, but was unsuccessful, with Pathway and her sword proving more able to temporarily subdue the beast. 789 promptly ran away while the dinosaur was distracted. (PROSE: *Prototype*)
Artari sunskipper

After the Tourist brought down an apocalypse onto Redacted Pinorva's unfinished reality, a Solari pilgrimage vessel was observed to collided with an **Artari sunskipper** whose destroyd warpdrive consequently sent a devastating blast of Iglix radiation into the stratosphere. (PROSE: *Breaking the Narrative*)
