Banja
After having enjoyed planetary success in our
dimension with his reggae group, "Banja &
the Mighty Toasters", Banja savours life
on Itland. He is a real star of music and like
all show-biz people, he has a tendency to be a
little bit lazy and has a consequent ego. He likes
to bask in the sun, take his time listening to
music or pass it away in agreeable company….
Nonchalant and bon-vivant, Banja cultivates his
style always hiding himself behind his dark glasses…
but his years on the road have made of him a very
open person!
Banja is among the last to come to Itland and
he discovers the isle little by little. After
having discovered the existence of the Fums Fums
and other mysteries, he realises that this haven
of peace is not really a tourist's cliché
for an isle of paradise… He tries to have
himself accepted by the Itlanders and takes part
in the isle's life with a lot of good will. But
his relaxation his main asset, often turns against
him…It sometimes resembles a flighty and
offhand attitude which in some circumstances is
not appropriate.

Zelia
Zelia is trendy, always good-humoured, she is
the most beautiful girl on Itland and of course
she is also Banja's girlfriend… She likes
techno music, but with her friends, everything
is fine for having a good time! And too bad if
the isle's old people concerned for their quietness
look at her in a suspicious way. Anyway, they
have nothing to fear from her, she likes looking
at the sea as they do, with Sydney's latest mix
in her Walkman!
Generally gentle and comprehensible, Zelia nevertheless
has a bit of a character and changing mood…
she knows what she wants and does not like being
annoyed… specially in the morning! If her
liking for Banja makes her forgive everything,
she cannot stand seeing other girls running around
him, and who knows then what her reactions may
be!

Sydney
A close friend of Banja and Zelia, he is the resident
DJ of Itland. Sydney lives for and by music. With
his record collection he regularly unleashes the
crowds in lively evening sessions under the moonlight
on the isle's beach. Sydney is the prototype of
a "cool guy" and unlike Banja he does
not wish to stop music… ever… He continues
to produce hot platters that he exchanges against
pots of honey, his favourite food!

Lola
the seer
She is part, like Banja, Zelia or Sydney,
of the second generation of Itlanders. But she
was already initiated in the isle's secrets even
before coming. Her troubling charm and her superior
spirit make her rather inaccessible for average
Itlanders, who sometimes hardly dare entering
in her seer's office. Yet, she is quite generous
in her astrological advice and shows no restraint
in sharing her spectacular visions. She nevertheless
makes a prudent usage of her exceptional gift
that allowed her to discover Itland's most ancient
secrets, for this is precisely what she suffers
of. She had knowledge of dramatic events of the
past, cruel events that she hesitates to reveal…
She prefers talking about the future, that seems
radiant and full of innovations, until when?

Paper
Boy
A bit stressed by the responsibilities bearing
on his frail shoulders, he often claims that he
is the only one to have a real job on the isle.
For every day he must distribute the mail and
the Itland newspaper, which he entirely edits
alone in his tiny bungalow near the town hall. |
|
Sam, the scientist
He lives hidden in the depth of the isle and rarely
comes in contact with the Itlanders. He is a particularly
secret being as well as a creative genius. Ever
since Banja discovered him at the bottom of a
volcano he supplies the inhabitants with inventions
more delirious the ones than the others! Starting
with the Sydney's discophibie, a hovercraft equipped
with powerful speakers.

Barbosa
Du Bocage, the pilot
He arrives on Itland by "accident",
after a little "organic-mecanical" problem.
His arrival is quite dramatic as he almost crashes
on the poor Kap, totally petrified, looking up
at this terrible flying object falling right down
on him !
Brave and glamorous, Barbosa obtains very quickly
the favours of the inhabitants...

Mecca,
the mechanic
The only one capable of repairing all of the isle's
vehicles. Being that spare parts are rare in Itland,
he is an adept of resourcefulness, and he can
ingeniously do any kind of repair… but he
does not guarantee that it will hold a long time!
Nice but absent minded.

Bud
He likes rock music and beer... the souvenirs
of his past life of a Hell's Angel! Motorcycle
rides, chatter at the counter on the sense of
life, invitation on the beach with the guitar…
Bud perfectly masters the ways of the chat-up
type… and the Belles of Itland now tend
to avoid him! |
