Techlocked

The Lodgers and Heroes Act are gridlocked into another world that is shared by two best friends and pending couple in the USRA and UIS, the Haelic Councilor Venux and the Earren Councilor Neves. They reside on a planet called Tequesta, where the two are rivals for making the best battle technology for the future of the AUU, and yet their relationship is still in a gray area. Turns out a war started because of holy grails of technology being unavailable and unintroduced for greedy, selfish, or stubborn reasons, causing people to stand up against them and steal all of it so they can be introduced, unaware that most of them are too dangerous and risky. One of the worst of these renegades is a Spidirition named Ovarnstrom, who aims to accelerate their victory by using weaponized nanotechnology to reshape the world into his image, purging all the selfish people who hid this technology away, while watching it's defense forces with a double agent Ciric named Xander Simplair. Thanks to Xander, they have learned that Newelan scientist Doctor Kolokowsky and his Omnican assistant Calibran have developed a brain-mainframe interface capable of connecting people's minds into a mech as if it was their own body, dubbed a mindframe, and is choosing 5 candidates to test it. When Ovarnstrom kidnaps all five recruits: a Jouron straightman cyborg named Juliro Chazer, an eccentric and immature Cheathan girl named Catentea Close, a level-headed non-Usuablothian-speaking Boldan Jain Iiina, a serious strict disciplinarian Auja named Alanya Shiftehr, and a brooding and often violent Haelic named Nickana Interiores, the Lodgers and Heroes Act go and rescue them by having them accidentally switch into their mech bodies. But their real bodies go missing and they have no idea how to switch back. Thus with the help of their commanders, a Haelic named Commodore Lygne and Satran named Commander Whyle, Juliro's girlfriend and mech trainer Jeoqon Miriam Cost, their wisecracking Larmur mech mechanic Cracky, and their other two trainers and Opigoid brothers Apris and Utley, the heroes must stop the war and Ovarnstrom before he goes too far.
