Primarily, there are three main characters in Through the Wormhole: Dan Matton, PPMC, and Becca. Dan is the protagonist, PPMC is the deuteragonist, and Becca is the tritagonist. This short document will give you a better insight into who these characters are and their long-term goals. They are, by far, my three most favorite characters I have ever created. That's because one of them can become a prehistoric creature herself. One character is a human boy, another is a starship, and another is something even better!…
