Characters

Mace Paladino, owner and founder and lead artist/writer/creator at Pink Panties Productions. Smart guy, but kinda an idiot when it comes to business. That's why his cousin Macia works at the firm. Pretty interesting guy... when ADHD Executive dysfunction doesn't have him curled up on the floor praying for the sweet release of death. Or candy. Candy is good.

Macia Paladino is Mace's pragmatic cousin. He runs Operations and Finance, and worries, constantly. His only concern these days is making Mace take all the red on the ledger seriously before it's too late. Somewhat more sophisticated and refined, although not necessarily a snob. Except when he is. Sometimes condescending. Tragically born without a sense of humor.

MacKenzie Paladino is Macia's slightly younger twin sister. She's bright and bubbly where he is a bona fide stick-in-the-mud. She can appear happy-go-lucky, but she's actually an MBA from Harvard and is probably smarter than Mace and Macia combined. But she never lets on. As the Corporate Secretary, she actually runs the show. Mace calls her "Executive Assistant", but everyone knows she calls the shots as Mace's enforcer. Like Macia, her side of the family has an unusual nekomimi mutation that gives her cat ears and a tail. She also harbors a secret...

Queen Valerie, or just "Val", is the 29th Heir to the Throne of Heck, a lesser-Hell where people go for minor offenses like being an annoying nuisance. Like people who put the toilet paper on the roll backwards. (because that's just crazy...) Accidentally summoned into the Mortal Plane by pool supplies being spilled on her summoning portal, she decides to make the best of a bad situation and agrees to help Mace as his "Muse" so she can siphon tantric sexual energy from people without arousing suspicion. Everything else being aroused is fair game, though. Presented here is her human "glamour" that gives the appearance of a world-weary billionaire adventurer so nobody suspects a thing.
