THE SCANTOS GUARDIANS
By Katie Humphrey

GENRE: Drama
LOGLINE:

A fiercely independent but reckless woman with the ability to harness the wind is taken in by a military outfit and must integrate and help eradicate the monsters who threaten her kind or face death going it alone.

SYNOPSIS:

The Scantos Guardians follows Coop, a veteran commander called to the Scantos Garrison to tackle a sinister local menace. On his journey, Coop encounters the body of a “Windturner,” a member of a rare group capable of manipulating the wind. This Windturner, Kailan Kinther—or Kinth—has barely survived a vicious battle against monstrous beings called the Mirka, who exploit Windturners for unknown, dark purposes. The Mirka’s methods are brutal: they shave and discard the bodies of Windturners. When Kinth awakens, she is determined to confront the Mirka, even if it means acting alone.

At the garrison, Kinth integrates into Coop’s team, where her fierce independence challenges the group dynamic. She bonds with Bear, a self-assured comrade, and befriends Griff, a gentle but courageous soldier. However, her recklessness causes tensions, particularly after a recent mission when she nearly endangered the entire squad. Kinth’s struggle to control her emotions threatens her place among her new family, pushing Coop to intervene before she spirals further.

The core team, “The Scantos Guardians,” represents a blend of unique personalities: D.L., a relentless fighter; Lona, her compassionate girlfriend; Dimitri, a level-headed strategist; and Griff, a warrior with a soft heart. Their camaraderie and resilience under Coop’s leadership are tested when they learn of a fresh Windturner casualty, a sign that the Mirka’s threat looms closer than ever.

The Scantos Guardians is a character-driven military fantasy drama that blends grit, loyalty, and the resilience of unlikely heroes. Set against the eerie backdrop of Scantos, this series explores themes of loyalty, trauma, and resilience, drawing audiences into a high-stakes military mission while unraveling the personal lives and pasts of each member.
