Premise
The Arcadium was once a thriving local hangout spot where both casuals and hardcores alike could spend some time with their friends and family. The arcade used to be vibrant, colorful and upbeat with a fun atmosphere, and was an especially popular place to swing by after school hours... but that was almost a decade ago. Since then, the arcade‘s popularity has dwindled for some mysterious reason, its facilities have become run-down, and has faded from the public eye, becoming more underground and a sort of treasure or staple of the past, People no longer wanted to work there for the enjoyable atmosphere, only choosing to get a job for the extra cash.

Lucas Ngo was only six when The Arcadium essentially ‘went out of business’. Having so many fond and remarkable memories spending time at the arcade in his childhood, and devastated at its current state, he decides to uncover the mystery on why its popularity drastically went down in the first place. On his first visit in almost ten years, he surprisingly encounters two regulars who still visit the arcade often and three (and only) staff members, as well as The Arcadium’s founder, Mr. Renton. Lucas soon befriends the two regulars and staff members.

Team Cyber

 * Zach Ngo (voiced by Antony Del Rio) - a hardworking but socially awkward 15-year-old who takes on a lot of extracurricular activities and hobbies, but still has yet to find his calling in life. He used to visit the Arcadium requently with his family in his childhood, and becomes devastated due to it going rundown, determined to restore it back to its former glory. In Vortex, Elijah is the (slightly reluctant) leader of Team Cyber. His weapon is a giant sword and his aura color is blue. Over the course of the series, Elijah begins to become more headstrong and confident in himself, in part due to the help of the rest of the group.
 * Dennis Gilbert (voiced by Matthew Mercer) - the 16-year-old former ‘bully’ of Faraday High School. He used to pick at and make fun of people due to being the captain of the soccer team, even though it isn’t really a powerful position in reality, but he mostly bullies people due to internal problems. He eventually overcame them and is now trying (and so far failing) to make a better reputation for himself and be nicer, but he can still be a hothead at times. In Vortex, his weapon is a laser gun and his aura color is red.
 * TBA as Melanie ‘Lani‘ O’Neil (voiced by Jessica DiCicco) - the 14-year-old resident ‘wild child’ of the group. She’s strong-willed, tomboyish and energetic. She doesn’t really have a big interest in gaming and visits the Arcadium regularly because she thinks its cool. She longs for adventures and hates staying in one place for more than an hour, only wanting to be cooped up in the Arcadium because she thinks the arcade is an adventure of its own. Lani is inclined towards art, painting and things that involve creativity in general, and while she doesn’t have stellar grades, her passion makes up for it. In Vortex, her weapon is a war hammer and her aura color is orange.
 * Eun-ah Choi (voiced by Catherine Taber) - a 15-year-old gymnast who’s quite passionate about the sport. She‘s logical and booksmart, but tends to be a shrinking violet and a bit of a control freak who panics easily, due to not really knowing how to fully control her emotions or express herself. Eun-ah works at the Arcadium and is used as a doormat, taking the jobs that no one wants to take because she thinks she isn‘t competent enough. In Vortex, she‘s Team Cyber’s strategist and has an easier time thinking clearly. Her weapon is a whip and her aura color is purple.
 * Felice ‘Felix’ Aiello (voiced by Alex Walsh) - the 14-year-old grandson of Mr. Renton, who he is extremely close to. He’s a generally reliable and friendly guy, always available to lend a helping hand, though he can be clingy, emotional and overbearing at times. Being a big foodie, Felix runs the Arcadium’s diner and is more than willing to work part-time there even though almost no one comes to the arcade for the food. He is also best friends with Dennis. In Vortex, his weapon is a crossbow and his aura color is yellow.
 * Stella Espinoza (voiced by Karen Fukuhara) - a 16-year-old Arcadium employee who runs the main counter, and the go-to-girl for assistance with all the arcade and console games. She may seem intimidating at first glance because of her confident and tough-girl nature, but once you get to know her, she’s a sweet and kind individual, working at the Arcadium (and many of her other part-time jobs) to support her family. She is also usually the peacemaker of the group. In Vortex, she’s the techie of the group due to being naturally skilled with inventing and repairing things. Her weapon is a staff and her aura color is green.

Allies

 * Dallas Renton (voiced by TBA) - the founder of the Arcadium.
