Crankie Williams was born as Clarence Allain, but as a baby his mother called him Crankie because, well, he was a cranky baby, so the name stuck. On his way home from school, Crankie met with Commander Illian who was instructed by the emperor to guide and tutor him through his young life, until he understood he had a higher purpose in the future. During his junior as well as senior school days he got up to all sorts of tricks and became a real thorn in the principal's flesh, so much so that the principal, after Crankie decided to become an entrepreneur and began, with his brother and his friend's help, to go into space and sign contracts with both the Arabs of the planet Murka and the Chinese of the planet Manchuria. The principal eventually met with the Chief of Police to inform him of his suspicions that Crankie was involved in criminal activities.With the help of his brother, Crankie meets up with Alexei who was to become one of his best friends. The two of them plan raids in the Heshny galaxy and hijacked some Heshnian freight ships. When they, unbeknown to them, hijacked a brand new super ship belonging to the powerful Andromedans they were overjoyed, but when they eventually realised what they had done Crankie ordered the new ship to be hidden until they could decide what to do with it. The Andromedans blamed the Milky Way pirates for stealing their ship and this put a huge strain on relations between the two galaxies. There was big trouble in the Milky Way galaxy and the Galactic Council was in uproar, giving the Police Chief as well as GASS (Galactic Security Service) instructions to find the culprits at all cost! Crankie, through a clever scheme, managed to recover the new ship and take it back to the Andromedans, thereby earning the title of Universal Hero!Crankie decided to start a new venture for the business empire he was developing. He restructured his management team and made plans to construct motels all over the Milky Way galaxy. These motels would be called Star Havens and eventually, after they were built and commissioned, they catered not only for weary travellers in pleasure cruises, they also afforded rest and recuperation for the fleet officers and men. The problem came when the pirates also began using the facilities and it was passively agreed by all that Star Havens would also be 'Safe-Havens'. No pirates would attack any passenger of cargo ships they were with at the havens and the fleet would not attack or hunt any pirates until they had a chance to get safely away.Through the influence of the emperor, Crankie met up with Chiefs Running Water and Running Bear of the Lacota Sioux tribe and it was decided to move all those people, who decided for themselves if they wanted to go, to a new mysterious planet called New Maka. Crankie got involved in some shady underworld activities and, although it was hugely successful for a long time, he eventually got caught red-handed and much to the joy of the Police Chief, was locked up. The Police Chief decided to have Crankie shipped out in a fleet supply ship, with strict orders that for the rest of his life he was never to set foot on any planet again.

He met with the Director of the penitentiary as well as some important inmates. Crankie began planning on how to make Hellkatrazz and the whole planet Walmer into a thriving and financially viable business, and after meeting with the Galactic Council, he was permitted to put his plans into place. Crankie set out on a daring escapade to make his plans succeed and called in the help of Marood Hubool from the planet Xanatanka. After many devious plans and much wrangling, his plans were put into action. Crankie finally made contact with his friends from Earth, who were managing his businesses during his absence. Together they came up with some weird ideas, and some of those led to battles throughout the Milky Way, and Hesny galaxies. Crankie finally identified the rogues who preyed on space miners and, using his super fast ship, the Solar Plexus, he destroyed the killers in a gruesome way. Crankie made deals with the Pleasure Lords of Barcator, and after many confrontations, he managed to unite the Heshny galaxy. A grand plan by the Valgonarians to invade the Heshny galaxy was uncovered, and a spy nest within the galaxy was eventually destroyed. What Crankie and the whole Galactic Council were unaware of, was that the Dark Force had awoken and was setting its plans into motion, influencing the rebellious galaxies to prepare for full-scale war.

The Xanerian race, situated at the outer rim of the universe, was one of the oldest races of sentient beings in the universe, and they were faithful to the benevolent wishes of the Presence, which was one of the ruling spirits of the universe, and they decided to go from galaxy to galaxy, seeking planets that were viable to seed with DNA of various sentient being, as well as a great variety of animals.The DNA seeded on the planet Earth was of a species that had proven to be very successful on other planets over the past millions of years, and the Xanerians hoped the humans of that planet would progress to eventually become the guardians of their galaxy.Although the Xanerians, through their appointed allies, guarded over their charges and tried to keep them safe, the Arunaks, being servants of the Dark Power, mislead and influenced the inhabitants of certain planets as they matured, manipulating them into believing all sorts of falsehoods, and ruling over them by appointing certain leaders and promising them great riches and much power to enslave their own people.Goldar Tal, the Brexian, and later also Varosch Mihn, the Loschkatan, were sent to the Earth to ensure the planet's safety. They, together with the huge Sentinel and the even bigger Destroyer, kept a watch on all that was going on, until the Dark Force decided to attack the Earth by using its sentient allies.The Destroyer and the Sentinel were sent out to deal with the attackers and gave them a thorough beating, but the Dark Force sent in stronger allies, and the Earth was ravaged when they attacked.Again, the Destroyer and the Sentinel were sent out, but this time Varosch, whose mental power was so great, he could destroy anything with his mind, and for a second time the enemy was destroyed.The Dark Power was becoming desperate to show his power. His greed for power, and his thirst to rule, eventually drove him insane and caused him to declare war on his brother, the Presence.This war, which was completely against the laws of the universe, would endanger the whole universe as well as creation, as balance could only be maintained when opposites existed in harmony. There could be no positive without a negative, and no good without an opposite bad. The Dark Force was now threatening, through his mad war, to endanger that balance, and that could lead to the destruction of the whole universe!
