Ice Planet

In a far‑future after a devastating war that scarred Earth, a fragile peace is abruptly shattered when an alien force obliterates a military academy. The chaos forces the academy’s commander and a handful of newly‑graduated cadets to flee, thrusting them into a desperate race for survival. Their only chance of escape lies in a massive research vessel that stands as a relic of the conflict‑ridden past, charting a course that could rewrite humanity’s future.

Onboard the ship, Jonah Trager—a battle‑hardened leader who carries the weight of countless losses—must balance his instinct to protect with the demands of a mission shrouded in secrecy. He works alongside the enigmatic captain Karteez Rumla, whose vision for the vessel is driven by a hidden agenda, and under the watchful eye of Senator Jeremy Uvan, whose political agenda adds another layer of tension to an already volatile crew. The newly minted cadets, still raw from training, bring a restless energy that clashes and cooperates with the seasoned officers, forming a uneasy yet compelling dynamic.

A sudden, mysterious hyperspace jump propels the vessel far beyond its intended sector, depositing it on an uncharted ice‑covered world. The planet’s breathable atmosphere and Earth‑like gravity are offset by an uncanny, invisible field that pins the ship to the surface, while its orbit behaves more like a spacecraft’s trajectory than a natural celestial path. The stark, frozen landscape and the perpetual, silent sky create a claustrophobic limbo, hinting at mysteries far deeper than the wreckage that now litter the horizon.

The tone of Ice Planet is a blend of stark, isolating science‑fiction ambience and tense, character‑driven drama. As the crew grapples with the unknown, every interaction—between the weary commander, the secretive captain, the politically minded senator, and the eager cadets—reveals layers of trust, doubt, and the lingering hope that even in the coldest void, humanity might still find a way forward.
