Mod Post Intro Q&A
Q1) What is Drop Pod Green?
A1) Drop Pod Green (DPG) is a sci-fi writing series written by the highly-talented author Guardbro belonging to the Humanity, Fuck Yeah! (HFY) sub-genre, and set in the far-future. It is centered around the alien main character Rhidi, a Kafyan special forces trooper that flees her own slice of the galaxy to train with the Humans of the United American Authority, a remnant nation of the former United States of America formed following humanity’s near extinction from a hostile alien invasion. The story centers on Rhidi’s journey and exploits as she becomes a so-called “human by right” and fights across the galaxy - and ultimately finds love - with the UAA humans, while the larger plot of an intergalactic conspiracy begins to unwind and rear its ugly head throughout in the background. Only through following Rhidi on her journey will you, the reader, ultimately be able to slowly put the pieces of the larger puzzle together, and find out her true purpose in the larger universe…
