Atlas Clarke wanders the planet of Kishar with a progressively failing body and mind.
While others seek out the planet’s many mysteries, adventures, and treasures, the malfunctioning, mechanical man finds himself on a deeply personal expedition — to figure out who murdered his creator and why.
It’s a long road back to the Clocktower he once called home but Atlas is determined. The question is, how long can he stave off his inevitable breakdown?
The Expedition of Atlas Clarke is a colorful genre blend of treasure-hunting, science fiction, fantasy, and a dash of horror. It has flavors of Saga, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Pinocchio, and Frankenstein.
Welcome to Kishar - The New Home for Humanity
Humanity has abandoned Earth to flee the dreaded Krall. Now, only a few decades later, mankind finds itself struggling to adapt to the unforgiving landscape of its new home planet of Kishar. This has resulted in a booming, over-saturated market of for-profit expeditioners and freelance treasure hunters.
The dream was to live among the stars, a life filled with adventure and treasure. The reality is a world where exploring the frontier requires a stack of permits, cutting trail is sold as a white-glove service, and discovering ancient relics is a nightmare come tax season.
