6	Project Pascal is a comic book created by Alexandre Amorim (AKA Ashtray, o cinzento) in 2002. Said comic book was a personal project, in a manner of speaking. He never really published it. It was something made entirely for his entertainment. However, he felt that the lack of conclusion and countless cameos by himself and his neighbors into the comic book made the whole thing [[JumpingTheShark jump the shark]] over and over. Because of that, he stopped writing new stuff, dedicating only to occasional drawings of his old characters.
7
8	In 2010, by the influence of his former girlfriend, he decided to resume his work and [[RetCon retcon]] whatever was wrong and/or amiss. Because of that, he felt like writing a novel instead of drawing a comic book, like in 2002. This novel, called "Hunting Season" had three main goals:
9
10	* Expand the universe.
11	* Make the plot more mature.
12	* Finish the storyline that was started back in 2002.
13
14	The plot tells the story of [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits five children]] who were born with special powers. Courtesy of their fathers, who were homeless men before being captured by an evil {{megacorp}} to be used as subjects of a research to discover a way to awaken the true potencial of humankind: To make normal people develop superpowers.
15	Those four homeless subjects eventually flee from the facility where they were being held and go separate ways, settling down and even building themselves a family. They had five children(one of them had two), only to die due to side effects from the medication taken at the facility while captive.
16
17	The kids, somehow, managed to complete the process that their fathers were submitted to, developing the superpowers aimed by the corporation that caught the homeless men at the streets.
18
19	The original comic books covers the first part of the story, where the five kids meet, face their first dangers and eventually learn what exactly is the corporation that is hunting them down.
20
21	Hunting Season is set up right after a [[TimeSkip time skip]] of a year from the main events of the original comic books. This time, with the boys deciding [[TiredOfRunning not to run anymore]] and to take down the corporation that made their lives miserable over the past year.
22
23	While the original comic books can still be considered {{canon}}, Hunting Season became the most official work regarding the Project Pascal Universe, reviewing some ideas, concepts and facts depicted in the comic books, as part of the plan of maturing the plot.
24
25	There are rumors that Ashtray intend to convert the comic book part into a {{prequel}} novel, as well.
26

28
29	!!Both comic book and novel provides examples of:
30
31	* ActorAllusion: Lexington and Livingston's appearances are pretty much based on actors Adrien Brody and Jeff Bridges.
32	%%* AdaptationExpansion: The very purpose of Hunting Season.
33	%%* AfterTheEnd
34	%%* AllThereInTheManual: This very page IS the manual!
35	%%* AlmightyJanitor: The motel owner.
36	%%* AmbitionIsEvil: Played straight with the Hoyts and [[InvertedTrope inverted]] in Lexington's case.
37	* AngstWhatAngst: Amanda. She spent the majority of her life without contact with the outside world and an extra year locked inside a tube to be used as a tracking device for her father and brother. She never shows any trauma.
38	%%* AnyoneCanDie
39	%%* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler: When the Experiments are captives in Death Nest's base]].
40	%%* BelligerentSexualTension: Between Humkey and Lenneth.
41	%%* BigFancyHouse: Lexington's Condo is pretty much a castle to the boys...
42	* BlackDudeDiesFirst: [[spoiler: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] with Humkey; he’s actually the last of the good guys to die.]]
43	%%* BondVillainStupidity: Hernan manages to avoid this trope until the moment he [[spoiler: reveals his new powers.]]
44	* CharacterDevelopment: We first know Chin as a Buddhist monk, and throughout the comic books and the time skip, he ditches his monk clothes and customs to live a life of excesses and everlasting parties.
45	* ChekhovsLecture: Eiji points out to Ilkum [[spoiler: [[ForeShadowing the possility of him and the other Experiments dying the same way their fathers did.]] Guess how Ilkum, Modius and Amanda die, 30 years later!]]
46	%%* ComingOfAgeStory: The story ends up being [[spoiler: Modius' rite of passage]]
47	%%* CoolCar: The Corvette Stingray 1972. And later, the [[Series/AshesToAshes2008 Audi Quattro 1983]]
48	%%* CoolBigSis: Sort of... Lenneth has her careful sister moments towards Modius.
49	%%* CrapsackWorld:
50	%%* DarkerAndEdgier: The novel, in comparison with the original comic books.
51	%%* DeadpanSnarker: Chin
52	* DeusAngstMachina: [[spoiler: After the Experiments escape the DSP, Ilkum find himself forced to abandon his friends and watch three of them die while trying to set them free from the harassment they all suffer. All while starting to consider that they are his true and only friends.]]
53	%%* DeusExMachina: [[PlayingWithTropes Mocked]] by Modius.
54	%%* DirtyCop: Anabella. Livingston also qualifies.
55	* DownerEnding: [[spoiler: The XGMF-019A eventually kills every character who has contact with it. Ilkum, Modius and Amanda only get to live 30 more years than the rest.]]
56	%%* DumbassHasAPoint: When Humkey explains to Lenneth the real goal of Ilkum's plan.
57	%%* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Lenneth. Considering that her powers only work on people that lust for her, it's very safe to say that she's the most desired character in the story.
58	* FakeNationality: Ilkum, Chin and Eiji look Asian, but they are apparently Canadian.
59	%%* Foil: Hernan, to Ilkum. In the end.
60	* ForTheLulz: Of the five main characters, Modius is the only one who joins Ilkum for fun.
61	%%* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler: Paul]]
62	%%* LeeroyJenkins: Modius.
63	%%* LimaSyndrome: How Ilkum and the others manage to [[spoiler: escape the base.]]
64	%%* MegaCorp: Death Nest, INC
65	%%* NeverGetsDrunk: [[JustifiedTrope Justified]]. Ilkum's powers allow him to go through drunkiness and hangover way faster than normal people. Humkey, on the other hand, got used to liquors since an early age. {{Word Of God}} states that this is the main reason for Humkey's total lack of sense.
66	* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Hernan. He starts out as a [[WellDoneSonGuy bratty boy who seeks his dad's acclaim]]. Later, we find out that he [[spoiler: killed his father, took over control of Death Nest, and the times the Experiments got away were all because he let them escape]]
67	* PaintingTheFourthWall: The Reader is invited by this page to imagine the characters dubbed by certain voice actors.
68	* ThePlan: [[spoiler: Hernan leaked the location of the main base underwater, knowing that Eiji would eventually find it. Knowing so, he also left a sample of the XGMF-019A in one of the so-called "unimportant" bases, only so Eiji could steal them. Being a talented biologist, he could also predict the effects of the XGMF-019A on Eiji's system, predicting also that Eiji would be able to cancel anyone's powers. Including [[SNKBoss Andrew's]]! Ilkum's presence at the base was also predicted and found unimportant, since Hernan's real goal was to kill his father.]]
69	%%* PsychicPowers: Amanda.
70	%%* {{Retcon}}: Several parts of the novel have this purpose. The most important, though, is the [[spoiler: Experiments' time locked inside Death Nest's former main base]].
71	* RuleOfCool:
72	** Considering that Humkey needed to shave his head to grow his afro, there's no way his afro could get that big within a single year.
73	** The Corvette Stingray of 1972 had only two seats; there’s no real explanation of how Ilkum managed to fit five people in it
74	%%* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Modius and Chin
75	* ShoutOut: Several, considering who wrote this piece.
76	%%** The woman who raises Eiji is called [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Emma]]
77	** Ilkum Bartlett is named after [[WesternAnimation/HeyArnold Craig Bartlett]].
78	** The Homeless man who fathered [[VideoGame/ValkyrieProfile Lenneth]] and [[TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade Modius]] must have been a real geek!
79	** Paul Brey was named after Dakota Star singer/guitarrist/bassist Alan Brey.
80	** The District political division of the world is inspired by the [[Film/TheMightyDucks Champions' District Five]].
81	%%* SleazyPolitician: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. Lexington is quite honest. And not only for a politician.
82	%%* SNKBoss: Andrew Hoyt. It's the main reason for Hernan's {{plan}}.
83	%%* StandardizedLeader: Ilkum. At the end of the day, his personality isn't very remarkable when compared with his friends'
84	%%* TheTysonZone: Chin was dangerously walking towards it...
85	* TitleDrop: Project Pascal is also the name of the experiments that led to the events of both the comic book and the novel.
86	* TimeSkip: One year, between the events of the original comic books and the novel.

107
108	He is the unofficial leader of the Experiments. Ilkum used to live with his mother and work at the family business. The Bartlett's Liquors. His mother knew from an early age what Ilkum could do and coached him into hasting the maturing process that an 12-year old whisky must go through, making their liquor, the best in all District Five. Since his mother got attacked by one of the Death Nest agents, he feels the need of keeping her safe, deciding then, to make a journey to find and protect all the other experiments. He starts out as a laid back boy who becomes more and more bitter after the time skip. This eventually prompts him to stop running and start fighting back in the novel.

140
141	Humkey is Ilkum's best friend. Of all the five Experiments, he's the one who never really had a family, being raised by prostitutes, who also dubbed him "Humkey" as were the remnant letters of a keymaker shop sign called "Humphrey's Keys", that got destroyed by a lightning bolt. It's unclear why he left the prostitutes. Years later, he found Ilkum and his mother, and started working for a roof and food. Nonetheless, he became fast friends with Ilkum and was the first to join him when he was gathering all the experiments.
142
143	He is loud, unpolite and sometimes, quite random at his thoughts... But nobody ever doubts that he's the most funny guy you'll ever meet.

174
175	Chin was the second to be discovered by Ilkum in his journey. He was a monk, and like all monks, he had a quite restrained life. Even when Chin joins Ilkum he was very cold and calculist, and worried about keeping the customs back at the monastery. It all ended in the day when they found Lenneth and Modius. Lenneth was kinda bored and wanted to make Humkey jealous. And so, Chin lost his virginity. Ever since then, he started growing his hair, and became a heavy smoker, stoner and drinker, partying hard everytime he got the chance to do it.
176
177	Despite his newfound disdain for harmony and all the values taught at the monastery, he's still loyal and quite cold, when compared with his friends...

206
207	Lenneth is the older of the Hastings brothers, and the last to technically join Ilkum's party. She's selfish, bad tempered, bratty and, needless to say, slutty. While a decent actress, she actually believes she'll only get a part in some play/movie/TV show if she sleeps with the producers. At first, the only reason for her to join Ilkum was to take care of Modius, her little (and eager for adventure) brother, later on, she falls in love with the only person who doesn't seem affected by her powers: Humkey. Unfortunately, because of Humkey's lack of money, manners, and overall wit, she fights this feelings throughout the story, taking extreme measures (such as sleeping with Chin) to make him jealous.

240	Modius is the younger of the Hastings brothers. Unlike Lenneth, he's lighthearted, an all around nice guy who craves for one thing and one thing only: Action! Once Ilkum came to him, he never had any second thoughts about joining up his party. While rash and impulsive, he's also owner of an immense destructive power.

264	Death Nest is a [[MegaCorp corporation]] that deals with weapons and warfare. Back before the story begins, they were already the biggest arms dealers around. To consolidate their leadership in the market, they started researching what could change the way the wars were fought forever: A way to explore and awaken the true potential of the human being. According to them, an average human has the potential to develop superpowers, the same way as we learn how to ride a bicycle. They were the ones who kidnapped Ilkum and the others' fathers(and everyone around them) to use as subjects. While Death Nest has thousands of employees and private soldiers, the decisions are made only by the Hoyt family.

She is very instructed, despite her lack of savviness of everyday life.

335	The DSP, or Districtal Secret Police, is the main force of the law enforcement of District Five. It's a corrupt force at some extent, as we see the President of District Five plotting with Andrew Hoyt and later on, disposing the DSP after Ilkum and the boys.
336	Little is known about the force itself, since the novel only shows the special manhunt division.

366	Paul is a DSP agent. He and Anabella are partners in the Special Manhunt Division. They were promoted from their street cop positions from another story written by Ashtray before the events of Project Pascal, making them {{canon immigrants}}. While Anabella eventually became insane, cýnical and cruel, Paul is still a good cop on the inside, making him argue with the corrupt Livingston and the cruel Anabella most of the times, since he's not really okay with what he must do to find people he judges innocent.

411	Back when Death Nest came on the homeless village to pick up the Experiments' fathers, the whole village was kidnapped or killed in the process. Eiji is an orphan who survived that event. He was rescued by a Death Nest soldier named [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Emma]]. While he was trained and raised by her, his hate and determination made him master many types of combat, hacking, infiltration and espionage. Now, he seeks revenge for what happened with the village, his parents and everyone who got captured or killed. He also feels that the Experiments are a menace that can't be underestimated and must also die.
