Summary: Four years after a traumatizing supernatural experience, Leland Henderson and his best friend Jaida Warner are well on their way to becoming Wardens, members of the Order of Peridexion, which oversees diplomatic relations between humans and non-humans. For the most part, it’s not far off of what they expected; they’re learning magic, learning how to fight, and learning how not to offend faeries. But what they didn’t expect was the Order’s bloody history, or the mysterious illness killing off non-humans, or Leland having to face his own genetic heritage on the regular. And the more Leland and Jaida learn, the less certain they are about joining the Order - and more certain they can’t escape it.
Possible triggers/nsfw: No nsfw content, will only contain kisses and innuendo. Bad language. There is violence and blood, and in future there will be references to past rape(but no flashbacks or glorification).
Update schedule: Every Wednesday at 7PM EST on SpiderForest, 7:30PM EST on ComicFury.
Page count as of submission: 198
Genre: Urban fantasy
Do you have any LGBT characters? If so what kind?: Yep! Most of the cast is, actually. For example; Leland and Constantine are homosexual, Jaida, Ransom, Soji, and Melinda are bisexual, Aaron is asexual, Ryo is FTM transgender and pansexual, Helene is lesbian(and so is her mom), etc.
Do you have any characters with physical or mental disabilities? If so, what kind?: Constantine is on the autistic spectrum! Ransom and Clark have depression. Morris is paralyzed from the waist down. Ryo has agoraphobia, paranoia, and insomnia. A lot of people have PTSD. There’s more too, but we figured we’d stick with folks who’ve already shown up.
