Abstract: We resume our discussion of the new orbifold-string theories of permutation-type, focusing in the present series on the algebraic formulation of the general bosonic prototype and especially the target space-times of the theories. In this first paper of the series, we construct one twisted BRST system for each cycle $j$ in each twisted sector $sigma$ of the general case, verifying in particular the previously-conjectured algebra $[Q_i(sigma),Q_j(sigma){]}_{+}=0$ of the BRST charges. The BRST systems then imply a set of extended physical-state conditions for the matter of each cycle at cycle central charge $hat{c}_j(sigma)=26f_j(sigma)$ where $f_j(sigma)$ is the length of cycle $j$.
