When Magizoologist Newt Scamander and his best friend/assistant (Y/N) (L/N) arrive in New York, they intended their stay to be just a brief stopover. However, when Newt's magical case is misplaced and some of the fantastic beasts escape, it spells trouble for everyone...

In an effort to thwart Grindelwald's plans of raising pure-blood wizards to rule over all non-magical beings, Albus Dumbledore enlists his former students Newt Scamander and (y/n) (l/n), who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world.
