Characters
Bean
Princess Tiabeanie, more commonly known as "Bean" is the main protagonist of the series. She the 19-year-old princess of Dreamland, who is being held to high expectations by her father, King Zog, telling her to act proper and get married. However, Bean refuses to conform to these rules, as she would rather indulge in being the badass, alcoholic, bar fighting, promiscuous, adventurous, and dangerous girl she is.
Elfo
Elfo is a short, scrawny, and stupid, but cynical elf, who was born in the happy little town of Elfwood, where he was forced to work in a candy factory and be "happy all the time". Elfo has since then grown to despise the idyllic atmosphere of his enclosed society, and escape, to go and enjoy reality. Instantly upon living in the real world, Elfo has been torn apart and taken down by the harshness and cruel reality of the realistic world of magical fantasy. Upon pursuing a friendship with Bean, who helps him cope with the scary and unfamiliar environment, he foolishly became a part of.
Luci
Luci is a demon from Hell, assigned to be Bean's personal demon, by his bosses Emperor Cloyd and The Enchantress, to stalk and torment Bean for the rest of her life. As such, Luci is a malicious, sadistic creature, who's primary crime is to give Bean poor advice, leading her already undeveloped mind, into making stupid decisions, that never fail to get her in huge trouble. Outside of being an agent of chaos, Luci is mostly just a carefree laid-back guy, who doesn't seem to care about anything. Overtime, he has gotten chummy with Bean and become more of a peer pressuring friend, than a misguiding shoulder devil.
