I don’t see what dramatic purpose is served by having the protagonist be “rogue” or the team be “ragtag”. (I, for one, do not subscribe to the dictum that the protagonist must always have a character flaw — no exceptions. )? It seems to me that in this scenario, the dramatic problem need not be specifically correlated to a character attribute of a singular homo sapiens (although it may be correlated to an attribute of the species in general — but that’s a different dramatic issue.)
Have you considered flipping the premise, such that:
As global conflicts over Earth’s dwindling resources ensue, an astrophysicist leads a team to explore parallel universes to discover why, in a multi-verse of infinite possibilities, all other Earths have escaped a doomsday scenario.? (34 words)
My take on character flaw is that it is a dramatically pertinent if it threatens or prevents the protagonist from achieving the objective goal until it is acknowledged and overcome. [And I have been compiling a list of films where the protagonist is not handicapped by a character flaw, at least not one that would prevent him/her from achieving his/her objective goal.]? Anyway, in this case, being rogue may be an asset not a liability.
Whatever.? The core concept is an interesting one.? Best wishes.
