Synopsis
Thousands of years ago there was a meteor shower that brought Vis-Stones to earth, which were hidden until discovered by archaeologist Bryon Lyonard. The stones when touched by a human turn them into an animal form that lies in their soul. The Vis-Stones are also used by a cyborg race N.O.V.A, who arrive on Earth to harvest the rest of the stones to power their weapons posing a threat to other planets, including Earth. Bryon has to protect his stone because once a bond is made shattering the stone destroys the soul. It becomes Bryon's duty to find the other stones to stop N.O.V.A to protect the universe.
Very Nice. I love the name NOVA, especially since its an acronym. It feels very much like an eighties premise, so great stuff. Ok, so I guess its time to flesh out those characters now.
