Story:
Chelsea Reid is a college student on summer break who had no idea what she was getting herself into when she opened the door and let her cat in on a stormy night so many days ago. What came in was a cat, her cat and not. What followed was even more bizarre and truly alien. A blue skinned alien named Lexx broke in attempting to reclaim his game piece, the cat. Reluctant to take the cat by force, he made a deal in which Chel agreed to loan him the cat if she could come along to see the space ship. Thus began Chel's introduction to the elaborate game known as "Alien Dice". It’s a game more complex than it initially appears. Animals are bonded to dice and uplifted with unnatural intelligence and abilities to fight and capture others of their kind or merely to entertain their masters. Or at least that was how the game was described to Chel...
Main characters:
Chelsea, usually referred to as simply Chel, is your average girl next door. She's never been popular, just the girl that's always there to help out when it's needed. Opinionated and a bit quick to jump to conclusions with passionate effort, she's wound up in the game through her cat Mittens, which was turned into a dice by Lexx on his first day to the planet.
Lexx, as he prefers to be called is the alien in question who's playing the game. What is Alien Dice? He knows all too well. It's a serious game to him in which his life is in the balance. If he loses, he either becomes a slave to whomever beats him in battle or dies. He would prefer to die. So far, he's almost completed the game,... but no-one has completed it before and the forces against him are rising.
Zeta, one of the living dice of the game, the Fire Dice is Lexx's starting Dice. Unlike Lexx's other dice, when Lexx started a new set he rolled him on the ship so he's never merged with any creature other than his original.
Stealth is Lexx's Strategy Die, bond to Chel's cat Mittens. She is one to hide to have the advantage in a situation. Silence and concealment is her specialty in combat. When not having to fight other dice Stealth goes about her favorite hobby of trying to find out about everything and anything. This makes her valued as a great source of information. She is the only one of Lexx's Dice to know all the rules of the game.
There are still a lot of other characters that I won't introduce here. Go to Shivaewiki to read more.
...and many more.
My humble opinion:
One reason for me to like this comoic is my soft spot for angsty characters. Another reason is the wonderfull creatures Syke creates for the various dice.
But there's one thing to say... If you want to completely understand the first pages, I recommend to read the text below. It tells the same story but often gives a bit more background information.
Most of the texts above are taken from Shivae's Shivaewiki.
