Over the years a secret agency has been aiming to take down Ultratech and restore power to the people. But, when they find out that Ultratech is putting on a tournament as a way to give back to the people (while it is really a way to test their new weapons), they pounce on the opportunity and organize a "team" to go in and compete while also infiltrating Ultratech's facility. Led by Orchid (an agency field agent), she recruits Jago (a monk who believes his destiny is to destroy Ultratech), T.J. Combo (a former boxing champion looking to re-gain glory), Count von Sabrewulf (a former ultratech scientist who was fired after his discovery in animal-human genetic research), Thunder (an Indian chief who believes Ultratech is responsible for his brother's disappearance), and later an alien called Glacius (who was found and captured upon discovery by Ultratech) aim to take down the tyrannical organization and restore power to the American people.
