Most teens turn sixteen and get the license to drive, but Lil Falcon gets the license to kill demons.

Orphaned as a child and raised by an eccentric grandfather, Lil is concerned with surviving high school and is unaware that she's a Guardian - a being with super powers charged with killing demons and protecting humanity. When she meets Bran, a mysterious boy with amazing abilities, his psi energy unlocks her latent powers. But Bran has a secret that can ruin their growing relationship, and the truth she discovers may destroy everything she believes in unless she finds the right balance between love and sacrifice.

Characters edit see section history

  • Lil Falcon: Sixteen-year-old teen, has the ability to control things with her mind (she just doesn't know it yet).
  • Bran Llyr: nineteen-year-old, mysterious guy who walks into Lil's life just before she gets her powers. Is he a friend or a foe? Only time will tell. He has many abilities, including the ability to control water.
  • Sykes: the Fire Guardian is impulsive, hot-tempered and loves girls...all kind of girls. An only child, used to having his way, he tends to dress scruffily( to distract from his good looks or make himself stand out, no one knows).
  • Remy: the Earth Guardian has the ability to manipulate solids. The only boy in a family of five, he knows how to calm down a roomful of catty girls, or teen Guardians with large egos.
  • Isadora: aka Izzy; the teen Time Guardian trainee, has the ability to speed up time, slow it down or stop it. Stickler for rules and regulations, she is a little uptight.
  • Kim: the gorgeous Air Guardian loves designer clothes and can manipulate air. Her family takes a great deal of pride in their Nephilim lineage (translate that to less human genes)
  • Ares Falcon: Cardinal Psi Guardian, Lil's grandmother.
