A great adventure is coming to Nickelodeon this August, as four warriors are chosen to undertake an epic quest to protect their world from the forces of evil!
In the fantastical world of Gemina, four girls from completely different walks of life are brought together by fate and unexpectedly transformed into legendary warriors known as - the Mysticons! Princess Arkayna Goodfey is a confident leader who watched her king and queen parents fall under the curse of Baron Dreadbane. She and her friend Emerald Goldenbraid reluctantly team up with street orphans Zarya Moonwolf and Piper Willowbrook. Now that they're banded together as the Mysticons, they must learn to master their new powers and work together to save their realm from the return of the evil queen Necrafa!
With real relationships, distinct personalities and already strong, confident, smart, witty, and funny characters, Mysticons focuses on the representation of girls’ strength, power, and courage on the television screen.
Nick USA's brand-new official Mysticons website currently features information about Nickelodeon's all-new animated series and a super sneak-peek from the first-episode, "Sisters in Arms"! In the fantastic first-look, titled "Griffon Training", it's time to learn how to ride a Griffon! Arkayna and her brother are learning how to fly these cool creatures!
