International Rescue:
The Next Phase


International Rescue: The Next Phase is an alternate universe role play melding the canon characters from the 1960's television hit, Thunderbirds, with original characters.

Our first site was opened October 25, 2003, on MSN Groups, and we began play on May 24, 2004. The site remained there until July, 2007, when we opened our doors at ArtisticRainey's domain. In September 2009, the majority of the site's pages, as well as a new gallery script, were moved to Tikatu's domain. The forum, however, remained on ArtisticRainey's webhost as it was deemed too difficult to move. The gallery script became corrupted and was removed in June, 2011.

Your webmistress is Dianne, also known as Tikatu, with help from Rain, aka ArtisticRainey, and Lauren, aka Lillehafrue. Rain is in command of the forum and is resident tech head. Tikatu is responsible for coding and updating the website pages.

In memory of Elizabeth "Liz" Beers, player and moderator,
December 10, 1947-September 24, 2010.


She was the creator of Lena Matumbo and Will Abbott, an integral part of the moderator team, and archivist for the site. Her wit, her inventiveness, her perfectionism, and her stubborn defense of our role play made our world, both real and fictional, more complicated and more interesting.

Liz, you are missed.
