Sisera Haruko

Sisera Haruko is a rebellious Space Teen and main character in First Contact.

Appearance
Sisera's associated color is pink, as seen on her bandana. She wears a white jacket, with a light gray long-sleeved shirt underneath, dark gray pants, and white sneakers. They wear their hair in a fluffy, half-shaven hairstyle that covers one of their eyes.

When depicted in full-color, Sisera has pale skin, dark brown hair, and gray eyes; their jacket is brown and their pants are denim-colored.

Personality
Uriel describes Sisera as a "punk rebel". Sisera is energetic, emotional, and impulsive, in heavy contrast to Lucas's no-nonsense, calculated attitude. However, unlike Uriel, they don't always rush into things mindlessly. For example, Sisera tried to ask Uriel if he, only to get mad at him a few pages later for rushing in head-first and getting them arrested. They tend to shrug off physical injuries (like jumping out of a multi-story building, ) but are overly-worried about their current stuck-in-space situation and their parents' judgement, more so than the other teens.

While speaking, Sisera uses They can be vulgar and snarky at times, giving the Space Teens' one-off silly nicknames or quipping on present circumstances.

Sisera is also a former furry and implied to listen to black metal. While they cite "anarchy" as an excuse to create chaos, Sisera has never indicated being an actual anarchist. They claim to have previously been in jail, even before the events of First Contact.

Kwamwiro Arc
Sisera makes their first appearance on page 18 in a random Kwamwiro building. Immediately Sisera uses a half-empty spraypaint can to break the window and jump out of the building, attracting the attention of Uriel and Mullet. The two attempt to talk to Mullet but only succeed in learning their whereabouts - an alien planet with two moons. When Sisera asks Uriel for advice to create more anarchy, Uriel attempts to lick Mullet and ends up getting the two thrown in jail, much to Sisera's anger.



Morgan eventually finds the two breaking out of their jail cell with a combination of spraypaint and one of Uriel's matchsticks. Morgan tags along with the two and orders them to move along, to Uriel's annoyance. However, Morgan threatens Uriel when he tries to confront her, and Sisera pokes fun at him for being too headstrong.



Later, the three teenagers group up with a confused Isaiah and Adam in their encounter with King Kwamwiro. Sisera eventually provokes the King into attacking by spraying his uncovered eye with her spraypaint can, and she cooperates with Morgan to strike back.

When Lucas accidentally kills the King by crashing The Ship into him, Sisera is the first to check up on Lucas. The two have a long conversation about Lucas's mysterious ability to understand some Kwamwiro language in the resulting banquet. Lucas explains his interpretation of the Bearded Guard's words - the King was once kind but turned tyrannical, and his corruption spread to the town. Eventually, the Kwamwiro resorted to exiling corrupted civilians to the forest floor until Lucas arrived, and the aliens planned to give the ship to the Space Teens.

The Space Teens eventually group at the spaceship for the first time. Sisera gets anxious about their parents discovering they went missing and refuses to explain why or what they were doing beforehand. When they try to take their mind off of it, they get even more upset when Lucas tells the Teens that the chances of them returning home are unlikely. They try unsuccessfully to raise hell about their situation and instead end up tagging along with Uriel and Adam to find resources.
