Began as a series of short films for MTV. Each of these films, plus a couple of full episodes, ended with Ĉon Flux being killed, with continuity being "rebooted" in the following episode. This angle was phased out over time. Plans for a second season were discussed, but have yet to be fulfilled.

On "Liquid Television", the "Ĉon Flux" shorts always ended with Ĉon dying and she never said a word (except for one episode). On her own regular series, Ĉon and Trevor were the only characters that would always live to the end.

 

 

Ĉon has no conscience and no worries about killing people. She does however have a mild sense of right and wrong.She is not keen o­n the idea of injustice and I think she would feel very bad about hurting anyone that wouldn’t hurt her.  She even has a certain compassion for her friends. In Isthmus Crypticus for instance, she would not kill her friend Una despite Una’s attempt to destroy Ĉon.  This contradicts sharply with the gratuitous violence of War and Ĉon Flux (the pilot) where the amount of death and destruction wielded was almost intolerable.  Ĉon has one weakness, and it’s a big one! She is in love with Trevor Goodchild the leader of her opposing culture, the Breens and the person responsible for most of her missions.  Invariably Ĉon must destroy something that Trevor in o­ne of his madcap fantasies, has created. However, it seems that she also takes o­n some jobs for him too!  Maybe Ĉon is a double agent or simply takes o­n the work she thinks most appropriate to her skills. More likely she is a free agent, taking o­n whatever assignments she likes.  She tends to die a lot which can be really infuriating!  Not much is known of her background. It seems we have not yet had the pleasure of finding out how she was raised and what helped her form her attitudes to life.  She has a terrible habit of being emotional when she really should be dispassionate, she makes snap decisions while being prone to unexpected sessions of awkwardness and fallibility. She is occasionally delightfully sadistic and gratuitous. - and she has died several times!

 

 

Trevor believes himself to be the saviour of the Breens. He provides for their every need. He looks after them with the same care as the proverbial Mother Goose. He is however, unforgiving and not open to suggestions by his subjects. He is a dictator in every sense of the word.  It appals him why certain Breens would wish to leave the protectorate of Bregna and escape to Monica. The ‘wall’ separating Bregna from Monica is as much to keep Breens in as Monicans out!  He is of course besotted by the lovely and deadly Ĉon Flux (well, who isn’t). She, it seems is the o­nly challenge he has left – and believe me, Ĉon is a challenge. The two seem to have a love/hate relationship though you always get the impression that the relationship is more important to Ĉon than Trevor (he seems to have more dangerous liaisons).  His fixation isn’t just because of Ĉons good looks however. He loves Ĉon because of the type of woman that she is; her aggressive nature; he lack of conscience and willingness to kill to get her way; or perhaps it’s because of her tempering sense of right and wrong.  In A Last Time For Everything, Trevor is able to duplicate Ĉon Flux. He makes about thirty copies and each Ĉon is totally subservient to him. All except one of course. The real Ĉon is all Trevor is after.  His silky smooth voice, charming mannerisms and power make him almost irresistible to members of the opposite sex. But make no mistake, Trevor Goodchild is ruthless in the extreme and will do everything in his power to succeed – even at the expense of his beloved Ĉon.  His god like scientific experiments are born from lofty high ideals, but no sooner they start to show any level of success, the dastardly deed is seen to be open to the more baser instincts of the human psyche. I read somewhere that Trevor could be likened to a philosopher who tends to miss-quote Neitzsche - "a o­ne minute manager with so many internal conflicting ideals that he can simultaneously praise a subordinate for good work then order him to kill himself."
