Melea Tate. She's half human, half alien ... and a sharpshooting, martial arts trained, kick-ass assassin who -- unapologetically -- kills bad guys for her living. Of course there's a little bit more to her story than that.

 

The bad guys she kills are people who, as witnessed through her dreams, commit horrifying acts of mass murder. Tortured by the horrific images, Melea -- with the help of a small covert team -- makes it her life’s work to try to neutralize these threats. From lone psychotic gunmen to axe-wielding maniacs to organized terrorists, Melea takes all of them on -- and most of them down.

 

And as for her 'gift of vision?' She inherited it from her dead father, who we learn early in the series was placed on this planet by extraterrestrial beings. These beings call themselves 'The Scientists,' and their reason for the placement: It was done simply as an experiment. And of course the fact that her father was an alien -- making Melea herself 'half and half' -- adds a strange tilt to this entire story. 

 

But at the heart of every episode of "Dream Force," Melea will do what many of us secretly wish we could do – stop killers before they have the opportunity to kill. Yet with every episode Melea also faces a dire threat of her own – that of being hunted by a Russian secret agency bent on using her metaphysical talents as a weapon. Add to that, with each episode, "Dream Force" reveals more and more about the mysterious origin of Melea’s ‘gift’ of vision, creating a compelling and ongoing sci-fi backstory.

 

THE PILOT

 

In the pilot episode, Melea awakens one night with visions of a young man shooting and killing 23 innocent people in a public library. Scared and compelled to act quickly, she reaches out to her former lover/ex-special forces operative Oscar to locate and stop the suspect before he can carry out his vicious rampage. But while Melea, Oscar and their small diverse team works on a plan to stop the target, complications arise. Determined to use Melea as a weapon against its country's enemies, a Russian secret agency is hunting her down. Melea is also dogged by a mysterious presence during one of her dreams that leaves her conflicted and distracted. Plus, she faces interference from one of her own teammates, forensic psychologist Lydia, who believes she can save the would-be killer through therapy. Then, with the Russian’s closing in and time running out, Melea must make her move on their target, or risk not only the loss of 23 innocent lives, but potentially the loss of her freedom as well.

 

WHY PEOPLE WILL WATCH

 

Unique characters. Sci-fi suspense. High stakes. That is “Dream Force” in a nutshell. But there is so much more.

 

With each episode, "Dream Force" peels back the layers of relationships: Between Melea and Oscar, Melea and Lydia, Melea and her dead father. The series will explore the broad implications of non-earthly beings 'experimenting' with the human species, posing the question, 'For what reason? To what end?' And what of the ongoing moral struggle of Melea killing people who have not yet committed their foreseen crimes. No judge. No jury. Just Melea.
