Here they are, the leader of the Insurgency.
Irel Vanik is a human and has been in the Insurgency for 6 years and been leading it for 2. They are an amputee (both of their legs are prosthetics from the waist down) and they are a very skilled mechanic who spends a lot of time fixing and building things when they’re not running the Insurgency. Irel’s best friend and second in command is Avalis and they worked together since Irel recruited him 4 years before the story starts. They allowed the AI system within their ship (the Horizon) to develop and eventually gave it the name K8 (pronounced Kate) and while the two bicker, they make a great team and Irel has plans to build them a body to actually move around in that is not a ship. They are generally well liked even if they do have some strange tactics at times (Avalis is their impulse control). They are passionate about the cause and are determined to take the IGA down.
And here is Keryn Narkel, the last member of the Horizon crew.
Keryn is a bounty hunter, and she is very good at her job. She is known for always catching her targets and bringing them in largely unharmed. She has a sort of rivalry with another bounty hunter named Rayka, but honestly Keryn does not really see her as a rival at all as much as Rayka thinks they are. She does some work for the Insurgency, mainly tracking down members that are on the run and helping them get to a safe place, and she gets a contract to find Aala and Nila before the Alliance do.
Israel is continuing its trend of kidnapping Palestinian doctors with the purpose of torturing, humiliating, and ultimately murdering them. Every doctor killed means dozens or hundreds more will die due to lack of care.
Israel also aim to break the spirit of Palestinians by subjecting people to horrific tortures and publicizing it. They want people to be afraid. They underestimate the resolve of the Palestinian people.
Edit: I want to clarify that Dr Al-Bursh was kidnapped by Israel in December of 2023 and his death was confirmed by Israel on April 19 2024. This was originally posted May 1, 2024, and has been getting a lot of attention in the weeks since then, so I wanted to make sure the timeline was 100% clear

dear followers, i'm writing on the behalf of a woman, a sister, a mother, a grandmother, named wafaa who has been speaking to me on tumblr from the dire situation in gaza. i'm here to share her story, her plight with you, her campaign with you so you can help her. her house has been bombed, the place she grew up, her place of work, her husband's place of work has been bombed, where her children grew up, her family (three generations of people, which is 15 people including a newborn infant) doesn't have anywhere to go.
she has already lost precious people in her life, lost precious people who were her world, her sister, her brother's son... she can't bear to lose any more people than she already has! she is already wracked with a grief and sadness i genuinely cannot even begin to comprehend. none of us can. yet she still has hope in god that through us, people across the world, can help her family escape this situation. let us not let her down.
i know you're all struggling with money right now. already struggling with bills and food. but donate what you can afford, still. even if it's just a single dollar! because it all adds up, it all adds up in the end. when wafaa first contacted me i believe her campaign was at around €13,000 out of €50,000, but now it is at €21,465! it all adds up. we can keep this going, with donation matches, by spreading this campaign, sharing even if you can't donate. so please. help her family, with whatever little you can.

This Avalis (aka Avi).
He is a volcarnirin and can use fire magic. He is Irel’s second in command and best friend and the only one other than K8 willing to deal with their flying. Avi is pretty calm and collected, however he is a force to be reckoned with in a fight, not just due to his size (he’s 7’0ft tall and muscular), but also due to his species having the natural ability to superheat their body to the point of being able to melt through metal, which he does not hold back on using against opponents.
Avalis cares a lot about the Insurgency, and over the years he has become close with another major member of it named Ria (I will talk about her in the future), as the two of them are sparring partners as their very different sizes and combat styles work well together. The two also struggle to sleep, so will often have late night sessions to help deal with their nightmares.
Okay, so I’m going to be giving a brief summary on each of my original wips. I’ll do a seperate ones for my fanfics. Each of this will likely get there own more in depth explanations later, but this should give the gist of each one.
Also, some of these stories do not have official names yet. Making titles is hard.
The Shadow Guard: A story set in a universe with superheroes. There are multiple phases of the story, each one following a different generation of the superhero team known as The Shadow Guard as their world evolves as Variants (people with superpowers) become more common and accepted.
Tales of Stars and Magic: The title of a sci fi universe with multiple stories in it. Magic is a natural part of life and different alien species use it in many different ways.
Onto the Horizon: The first story in TOSAM. It follows the crew of the ship ‘The Horizon’ as they fight with the Insurgency to defeat the Intergalactic Alliance (IGA). Book 1 is called ‘Tides of Change’ and follows Aala as she has to protect her sister (Nila) as their homeworld was invaded and they end up meeting Keryn, a bounty hunter who dislikes the IGA, Irel, the leader of the Insurgency, and Avalis who is Irel’s second in command.
Adventures of the Aurora: A new Jump Engine has been invented and it makes it possible to explore a fourth galaxy. Captain Karys Alvali is in charge of the scout ship Aurora, and with her crew, they start to explore the new galaxy.
Blackout: The story of Herene, the Creator who has to make a horrible desicion to protect the universe from the threat of the Devourers.
Luna Stone: Luna is an 11 year old sorceress who is about to start her first year at Peregrine’s Academy of Magic. She has to try and live up to her family legacy, and while she’s certainly powerful enough magic wise, she wants to befriend who she wants. Her life only gets more complicated when she starts getting strange dreams of a phoenix.
Unamed Luna sequel: After the events of Luna’s story, the magical community has changed. When it’s discovered that Jay (a human) is able to see magic, panic begins to spread over the possibility the Great Spell is failing.
Unamed Luna prequel: King Florian is one of the most famous historical figures for magic users. He existed before the Great Spell was cast, and the human (along with his husband and knights) put a stop to the evil sorceress Oriana. The story follows him as he has to gather a group strong enough to take her down, and try and help both magical and non magical communities get along.
Myths and Tales: Will lives a normal life until he’s attacked by a strange creature. He is saved by Anpu (more commonly known as Anubis) and gets dragged into the lives of the many gods and goddesses while trying to figure out why certain gods want him dead.
Unamed fantasy story (aka Everyone’s a bard): When an ancient threat rises once more, Conri is chosen to find the others capable to defeat the Wraith. Even if he doesn’t want to, he isn’t given another choice.
The Unknown: A collection of short stories that follow people who ended up interacting with entities nicknamed Unknowns. Their origin is not known, and while organisations like the Unknown Defence Department are doing their best to unravel the mystery, it is a difficult job.
We are the Abu Ras family, once living peacefully in the northern Gaza Strip. Like so many others, our lives were upended by the ongoing war. Our home was destroyed in the north, and we were forced to leave everything behind and embark on a harrowing journey of displacement through several cities in the southern Gaza Strip. Now, we live in tents in the heart of the region, struggling to survive and rebuild.
The war not only took our home but also our livelihoods. We lost our jobs and the means to provide for our family. But despite the hardships, we are determined to rise again and rebuild our lives. However, we cannot do it alone.
We are asking for your support to help us secure a safe home and rebuild a new future for our children. Every donation, no matter how small, will help us take a step toward that goal. Your generosity can bring hope and stability to a family that has lost so much.
Please consider donating to help the Abu Ras family survive this difficult time and rebuild our lives.
Thank you for your kindness and support.

URGENT UPDATE
i finally got back in touch with malak, & he said him and and his family have found shelter in a nearby mosque, but it is under constant threat, and since they still haven't received enough money for a new tent, they have to stay there, as it is their only shelter right now..
tent cost: €2,000 (€1,118 raised so far)
