Project Jeptha

Project Jeptha is an American animated television show produced for Kingson, and aired from 2012 to 2018. The show follows the exploits of an alien nicknamed Jeptha who crash lands onto Earth after 15 years of aimlessly drifting in space in comatose. There, he struggles to understand Earth society and culture, find his past, understand his place in this new world, and ultimately overthrow a fear-mongering dictator. The stories and events portrayed are heavily character-driven and serialized, though still contains many stand-alone titles - each with their own purpose of progressing the world and characters. Exploring themes of purpose, destiny and identity, the show is characterized as intentionally inconsistent in tone - though maintains a consistent comedic drama vibe.

Premise
A young alien named Jeptha crash-lands onto Earth, with no memory of his past, and does not fully comprehend basic human interaction. He ends up in the aid of Othon, a denizen of New City, Oregon, the location Jeptha crashed in. As the series progresses, Jeptha learns more about humanity, his past, among other things, all while combating a corrupt ruler named Kingman and attempting to seize his control over New City, which itself is a large metropolis concealed in a barrier from the rest of the outside world. Various story arcs are introduced throughout the series, with the most prominent ones being about Jeptha's past and an ongoing conspiracy revolving around Kingman's motives and his power over the city.

Main

 * Jeptha: The show's title character and main protagonist, Jeptha is an alien who hails from the now destroyed planet Kreon. He knows very little about his past and spends a majority of the series attempting to piece together who he is and where he came from. He starts out as impatient, irritable, depressed and generally uncaring for most people due to his current situation and his frustration with understanding Earth society. As the series progresses, he begins to soften up as he realizes that the city needs a willing and determined person like him to fight for their freedom, becoming an overall much more positive and jovial (if still irritable and crass) person. Despite his endless confidence, Jeptha is extremely weak, which causes him to have an over-reliance on his friends and allies. Voiced by.


 * Othon: Jeptha's caretaker, Othon is a fellow alien - though is a wanted fugitive by his species - and, at first, acts as a foil to Jeptha's hostility and detached mindset. In that, he is very strong-willed and passionate about the people he knows and the concepts he believes in, and that mindset leads to him starting an underground resistance against Kingman's forces. Alongside his several positive extroverted qualities, Othon is very tech-savy and knowledgeable in the field of science - constructing weaponry and tools as a hobby. Despite all this, however, Othon very much lives in his own little world, having somewhat of a messiah complex, and his endless pursuit of justice ultimately does more harm than good. Voiced by
