in Stars and Time × Alien stage

In the world of Alien Stage, the rules of the show are extremely simple and cruel, and they are observed (and judged) exclusively by aliens (the Segain race). Humans in this equation are merely "pets" and expendable.

📜 Basic rules of the show

· 1 on 1 format: Participants (usually 8 people per season) sing in pairs. The one with the most points wins.
· Death of the loser: The one with the lowest score is executed right on stage in front of the audience. The winner advances to the next round.
· No Escape or Violence: Participants may not flee the stage or attack their opponents or audience members. Disobedience or refusal to perform will result in immediate execution.
· Goal: Reach the final. The winner (or their "owner") receives wealth, fame, and illusory "freedom."

👁️ Who is watching and judging?

· Alien Spectators (Seguein): This is the main audience. They sit in the arena's stands (often above the stage) and broadcast the show. It is their votes (scores) that decide who dies and who continues on.
· "Owners" (Guardians): The aliens who raised a particular individual. They can also influence voting based on how spectacular they find a performance.
· Organizers: The process itself is supervised by a certain structure/host (for example, UR), who monitors compliance with the rules and does not allow “boring” breaks in the show.

Hyuna is a tall, athletic woman with long brown hair, tanned skin, and expressive gray eyes. Below her collarbone, Hyuna has her name burned in silver letters—a symbol of her past as a pet.

She wears a form-fitting black tank top with cobalt blue stripes down the sides and cobalt blue leggings that fade to an unnatural yellow hue. The pockets of her regular pants have turquoise markings that match the lines of the tank top. Her lower left leg is replaced with a prosthetic. A rebel leader and former contestant, she appears loud, carefree, and energetic on the surface, but is actually deeply compassionate and protective of her people. Her habits (alcohol, cigarettes) are a way of coping with the trauma of losing her brother. She sacrifices herself by shielding Luka from a gunshot (this will come later).
‎

Luka is an exceptionally handsome man with tousled, wavy light-brown hair and yellow eyes of the same color. His fingers, starting from the middle of his torso, are a vibrant purple tint due to a heart condition. He has long eyelashes the same color as his hair and thin, light eyebrows.

He can often be seen wearing a long white blouse with an asymmetrical hem and a lilac lining. The blouse is cinched at the waist with a long gray belt with chains cascading from his shoulder blades, and a large, long bow is pinned to the back of the collar. He wears black ankle-length pants and simple white heels with turquoise-mint socks. Lilac epaulettes are attached to the sides of his shoulders on chains. A V-neckline is visible on the long collar or choker, and a large bow with long ends is pinned to the collar or back.
Luke
‎
"Prince of the Stage": a charismatic, manipulative, and calculating perfectionist who is used to hiding his emotions. Behind the perfect façade lies a gravely ill man (congenital heart defect, purple fingers) with a repressed trauma: as a child, he caused the death of Hyuna's brother. His feelings for Hyuna are one of the few genuine things in his life.

Till is a tall but thin man with fair skin, turquoise eyes, and tousled gray hair that sometimes appears a dull blue. He has his name tattooed on his neck in silver-gray ink, usually covered with a green bandage (in some official artwork and stills from music videos, he has two green bandages on each side of his neck) for most of the series.

He is often depicted wearing various technical devices, such as a collar that fastens over his mouth and an earpiece that sits at the base of his left ear.

He wore an oversized white T-shirt with black spray-painted letters in various styles and red ankle-length pants. Till was not pictured wearing shoes in the second round.
Till
‎
On the outside, he's a brash, aggressive rebel with a prickly personality who hates all aliens. Inside, he's the most sensitive, vulnerable, and shy of all the participants. He's a talented artist and musician, but in his relationship with Mizi, he acts like an obsessive idealist, oblivious to Ivan's feelings.

Ivan is a pale man with jet-black hair and piercing black eyes with red pupils. A fang protrudes from the corner of his mouth. He wears an elegant black turtleneck and coat with a turquoise lining, a diagonal belt that accentuates his chest, and long black gloves that reach his forearms. His lower body consists of gray pants and dark turquoise boots with straps along the bottom, legs, boots, forearms, and chest—these straps advertise the brand. The brand is located on his wrist, but it is never visible in the series, and is only shown in official illustrations. Ivan
‎
Charismatic and enigmatic on the outside, he appears calm and detached. Deep down, he's an emotionally hungry man, traumatized by the streets, who struggles to understand and express his own emotions. His feelings for Till are deep, obsessive, and tragic. He sacrifices himself in Round 5 to save Till (that comes later).

Mizi is a pretty young woman with fair skin and long pink hair, the tips of which are dyed cornflower blue. Her eyes are golden brown or light green, depending on the scene or illustration. When not competing, she wears glasses. Mizi has her name tattooed in silver letters on her upper right arm, near her shoulder.

In the first round, Mizi wore her signature outfit: a black dress with ruffles and dark blue glitter, with a lighter-colored stand-up collar adorned with a blue stone. The dress featured a sweetheart neckline, off-the-shoulder detailing, a blue belt, and high heeled boots. She wore gloves in different colors: long, elbow-length ones, and short, half-palm-length ones.

Mizi
‎
On the outside, she's the most cheerful and outgoing member with pink hair. On the inside, she grew up surrounded by love and was initially naive, but after the loss of loved ones, guilt and self-destructive tendencies awaken within her. She's capable of strong emotions, but her kindness is coupled with a survival instinct.

Sua is a pretty young woman of short stature and slender build. She has pale skin, dark violet eyes, and black hair that reaches the middle of her neck. She also has thin bangs that fall over her face, almost to her eyelids. White is the main color of her clothing. Her trademark is on the left side of her neck.

Her idol outfit consists of an off-the-shoulder minidress with a large bow at the chest and puffy sleeves topped with long white gloves. She wears a headband, pearl earrings, and ankle boots with pale pink straps.

At one point during her time at ANAKT, she had long, wavy hair, which caused a stir, causing male students to feel awkward around her, Tilla to feel more awkward than usual, and a confused Mizi to experience new emotions.
Sua (Sua)
‎
"Ice Princess": quiet, withdrawn, and outwardly cold to others. In reality, she's fragile and traumatized. She opens up only to Mizi and is willing to do anything for her. Her love is a conscious sacrifice: she understands the reality of the show perfectly and chooses death to save Mizi, ultimately dying while saving Mizi.

Age: 20+ years (more precisely: early to mid 20s).
Appearance: Mirabelle is short, with dark skin and short, voluminous black hair. She wears a full white dress, the sash of which is tied with a rope around her waist, and a shawl draped over her torso, connected by two brooches shaped like concentric circles with teardrop-shaped ornaments hanging from them. She wears long white fingerless gloves, the ends of which wrap around her middle fingers, a large white bow on her head, and small round earrings.
She wields a long, thin rapier (but she won't need it for now!).
Personality: Polite, shy, and easily embarrassed. Despite this, she loves horror movies (and romance). She's asexual, but feels pressured by her religion to "change," and so she tries to force herself to seek relationships, which causes her stress. She's capable of decisive action in combat.

· Age: 20+ years old (more precisely: early to mid 20s, a little older than Mirabelle).
‎· Appearance:
Isabeau is very tall and muscular, with fair skin, short hair, and thick eyebrows. He wears a white long-sleeved shirt and a black sleeveless sweater, vertical black-and-white striped pants, and a gray belt with rectangular patterns that wraps around his waist and right shoulder. He has black rectangular earrings and black knuckle gloves.
Personality: Kind, cheerful, and loud (on purpose). He loves Siffrin's jokes and fashion (he sews his own clothes). He appears simple-minded, but is actually very smart. Deep down, he struggles with low self-esteem and is afraid to talk about his feelings. He loses the round and dies, essentially saving Mirabelle.

Age: Preteen (approximately 12 years old).
Appearance: Bonnie is a girl with dark skin and short, wavy black hair. She wears a white shirt with two horizontal stripes and dots, black shorts, and black boots. She wears a large, round white hat with one horizontal stripe, black round earrings, and a black bracelet on her right hand. She uses a frying pan in battle (but she hasn't needed it yet).
Personality: Hot-tempered, but childishly spontaneous. She loves to cook (she learned from her sister). She easily gets excited about food. She's very afraid of getting someone hurt because of it. She gives everyone short nicknames (Siffrin is called "Frin," Odile is "Dile").

Age: "Too old for this" (the exact age is not given, she is the oldest in the group, let's say she is about 40, yes, yes, older than Luka).
Appearance: Odile is tall, with fair skin and straight black hair, which she wears in a rectangular bun. She wears a gray shirt with long sleeves that cover the backs of her hands and two buttons below the collar. She wears a long, light gray jacket with diamond patterns on the shoulders and wide sleeves, as well as black pants. She has long, narrow eyes and wears rectangular, semi-rimless glasses with diamond patterns attached to them.
Personality: An intelligent, insightful, and skeptical researcher. She loves to study and analyze, but is secretive about what exactly she's studying. She cares for the group (especially Bonnie), although she appears cold and sarcastic on the outside. She hates it when people hide things from her.

Age: 20+ years (more precisely: mid-to-late 20s).
Appearance: Non-binary (he/they). Siffrin is described as skinny, with white skin and short, wavy hair that is mostly white but turns black towards the ends and is unkempt due to being rarely brushed. He wears a large, wide-brimmed white hat with a very wide brim and a pointed tip, and a large white poncho with visible curls and two black safety pins under the collar. His left eye is covered with a black eyepatch, and he wears short black gloves and black pants.
Personality: He loves puns and jokes (especially with Isabeau) to lighten the mood. Outwardly, he appears relaxed and mysterious, but inside, he's very responsible and anxious, often blaming himself (for example, for making a bad joke to Mirabelle). Due to the time loop, he gradually becomes cynical and tired. He suffers from memory lapses (forgetting even simple words). He often says, "Oh, stars..." and then something else.
