David Algernon is a 15-year-old teenager who lived in Gravesfield, Connecticut with his widowed father William Algernon, who was a police investigator for the Gravesfield County Police Department without a mother. He grew up liking mythology and legendary creatures, including werewolves, when he described them as very loyal to the select few they accept into their circle and symbolized it as representing the duality of human beings as both animal and spiritual beings. Often without, friends and getting bullied in different schools, he met Luz when they were kids. Luz Noceda is a 14-year-old Afro-Dominican-American girl from Gravesfield, Connecticut and loves all things fantasy and magical, wanting to become a witch. Often feels as though she does not fit in, which accumulates into instilling a poor amount of self-worth when she directly or indirectly messes up and a strong desire to be seen as special and valued, and it's implied that her low self-esteem resulted in her obtaining a guilt and martyr complex. Her mother Camila Noceda is a veterinarian at the Gravesfield Animal Care Center and like William, she is a widow after her husband and William's best friend Manny died from an illness. Both parents become close to each other and taking care of their kids despite their dark past. As a werewolf, David's wolf name is Alpha and is abilities as a beast invulnerability to conventional harm because of their healing factor, superhuman speed and strength, and the capability to land on their feet after a steep fall.

27 parts Complete Mature

Ever since the Noceda children were little, they've always had problems. Luz was bullied as a child and even in her pre-teen years. The girl didn't know how to defend herself, so she had to rely on her older sister Lucia. People always thought the pair were weird and Lucia was not having it. One day their mother Camila showed them something. It was a place that no one had ever seen before. A place where Luz could be her usual self... a place called the 'Boiling Isles'. Lucia was pissed, she didn't want to go there but in order to keep her sister safe and grow up the way she wanted to... it was her only choice. The duo would be safe there. In a world of witches, titans, and demons, two humans were exploring the magical place. Little did the two sisters know... they would be in more of a struggle than they thought. This story is inspired by the song "For the First Time" by Mac Demarco. Includes mature themes such as swearing, sexual content, drug use, violence, mild mentions of homophobia. #18 in Lumity - 9/11/23
