Sellane the Herborist was one of the surviving Wellsians (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker) whom Pythagoras-858 failed to defeat at Morningstar 1 on Venus (PROSE: The Grand Multiverse Hotel) and who founded the New Wellsian Empire on Thrash. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
Biography
In 1897
Sellane was one of the Wellsians of the 97th Cosmos who participated in the attempted 1897 invasion of Earth Earth. After the invasion was foiled by a plague which decimated the Wellsians, a few non-contaminated ones escaped in a Tripod modified for space travel, which found its way to Venus, where it crashed. (VIDEO: The Wellsians, PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians) The seven Wellsians who survived the crash went into hibernation while their craft became buried under many feet of Venusian sand. Eventually, nearly a century later, a base called Morningstar 1 was built by the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids over the exact spot of the crash. The Wellsians, in their sleep, telepathically felt the new presences, but did not wake yet. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians)
Resurrection
- See main article: Mandragora's Great Experiment
Having unearthed the Tripod by accident while trying to dig up a new pool, the alchemist Mandragora-257, who had been banished to Morningstar 1 after one of his experiments went wrong in the Homeworld, engaged in a “Great Experiment” to revive the intact, but hibernating Wellsians he had extracted from the wreckage. He promised the base's Governor that the resurrected aliens, who would be able to rebuild their Heat Rays, would allow him to rebel against the Crew once and for all, conquer the Earth, and use it as a launching point for an all-out campaign across the Multiverse.
However, the Wellsians were playing the Cupids for their own ends. After finding that the Governor had locked the three Fog Ships kept on retainer in the base, they sent a psychic distress call to the Cupid Homeworld to lure a new vehicle: the Department of Problem-Solving's Ship. The Problem-Solvers uncovered Mandragora's plans, but were unable to stop things from violently coming to a head, with one Wellsian killing Governor-105 point-blank and the other trying to shoot Mandragora. Because Mandragora was carrying an explosive chemical on his person at the time, this caused an explosion which destroyed the base, killing that Wellsian and one other, as well as discorporating Mandragora. The other Cupids were unharmed, but soon discovered that the five remaining Wellsians had long since taken advantage of the distraction to make their escape. (PROSE: The Resurrection of the Wellsians)
Resettlement
In their stolen ship, the Wellsians made their way to the Interdimensional Black Market and subsequently acquired a new planet.
There, for the 2020 Allac-Ur celebrations, Sellane grew an unnatural tall stalk of Red Weed to act as the centrepiece. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
