Crossover Sagas Questions Part 1

What is Crossover Sagas about?

Well Crossover Sagas starts out with the main character, Lexis Porter, and his family going on vacation in France. During the very first episode, he is introduced to the major evil organization, that is trying to control the world using people with psychic powers, and they believe they can use him, so they’re trying to capture him, and he encounters one of the leaders of the group, because they realize that he’s powerful that they need to be sent out. He encounters Number 10, the tenth most powerful, who’s really not that powerful; the top ten’s powers all connect with either the ability to enter and control minds. Number 2 is the only one that’s separate to that, but the next few episodes he just combats them, and eventually has an epiphany where he realizes what he has to do, and then goes off finding these temples where he can unlock his power.

Eventually, some of the major governors of the omniverse come to speak to him to try and rescue him, and tell him about the main villain who pretty much just wants to destroy everything. He can’t do this due to the main character’s existence so the governors had to hide him as he had been found and the main villain wants him dead. He has to spend the second season trying to get home, so he can get away, so he can eventually combat the big bad guy, getting himself some training along the way.

Basically, the third season he’s trying to get his powers so that he can combat the big villain. Fourth season is combat against the villain. So it’s basically just the combat between two big powerful beings, one who basically trying to protect the world and bring balance to it, and one who wants to destroy it, and be the imbalance.

What are your favourite characters in Crossover Sagas?

Well, Crossover Sagas has got a lot of characters. I can’t really pick a favourite, because that would kind of be bad, really, to pick your favourite character out of your own show.

(OK then, what are some of your favourite characters?)

I will say the main characters, I like them all. I can tell you what I like about each of the main characters. Obviously for Lexis, his personality is based off of my own, so in a way, he’s that world’s version of me. His two alternate personas, Angelo and Donavon, I had fun coming up with conversations between them, because they have such different personalities. Angelo’s all goody-two-shoes, and if anyone ever says or wants to do anything bad, he’s like ‘No! You shouldn’t do that!" Whereas Donavon’s the complete reverse, he’s really violent, and it’s really fun writing their conversations, because they’re brothers, but they’re so different from each other.

For Nadia, she’s not my most favourite, but I like the whole thing that she’s the love interest, and in every story, the main character should have a good love interest, and I think I’ve wrote her in a way that the fans will like her.

As for Manasa and Imaran, they are both fun to write, because they are foreign, and it is fun to write foreigners in, because it’s so fun writing to see how I can make them work.

Obviously for the two smart characters, it is fun writing the intelligent characters and making it so they can do all those really intelligent spurt-outs, and other people just go, "What?" Because I think people would really like hearing that, because it sounds so bloody smart, but then everybody else is like "What did you just say?" And then having his brother to bring it all down and dumb it a little bit, for everyone else, you know put it into vernacular.

And then, really, the two characters that aren’t from the same worlds, they are fun to write because they are based on some of my favourite characters from those series, so it is fun writing them.

I just have fun writing all my characters really, I can’t pick a favourite. It’s impossible.

What is the world like in Crossover Sagas?

Well Crossover Sagas is not just one world. The main characters come from what is known as the Central World. The world itself is made up of many parts. Basically, at the very beginning of their world, there was nothing, except for the Void. Now in the story, everything has a representation. The Void’s representation has the ability to see into the future, and foresaw the universe that was yet to come. But, he decided that this universe would need rules. So he started making rules. The very last rule he created was the Rule of Opposites; every being that exists must have a being that is their opposite. As he was the being who represented nothingness, a being came into existence that represented everything. That being in turn had a child, Ace, who went on to make what is known as the City of Origin. From there came the Realm of In-between. But in Ace’s birth, a being came to existence that was his opposite, as he was basically the first being, and what he represented was really balance. So a being came into existence that represented imbalance, and that being in turn was jealous of Ace, after he created his own world, which was basically to keep up the whole ‘everyone must have an opposite’, the beings that were in the Realm of In-between, in turn, all their opposites are in his world. And his jealousy eventually resulted in a battle, Ace was split into two, and thus the Realm of Light and the Realm of Darkness came into existence from them, and the whole reincarnation cycle of them began soon after. The Realm of In-between, Light, and Darkness all form a sphere shape. The world at the centre is the main character’s home world. From there they go to various other worlds. This is where the part of crossover comes from, OK? So the worlds of other things, they’re separate, and they go to those. So the world is very diverse, but the omni-verse is what I call it, because omni means all. So it’s basically a pun on universe, our universe, uni being one world, omni being all worlds. So I would like to say my world is very diverse.
