**Ben Harvey** is a recurring character from *Fate: The Winx Saga*. He was portrayed by Alex Macqueen in Season 1 and by Daniel Betts in Season 2.

He was the botany teacher at Alfea until he required a transfer in early Season 2.

## Biography

### Early Life

At some point in his life, he married a woman named Rose and they had two children, Sam and Terra. He attended Alfea around the same time Farah Dowling and Saul Silva did.

## Throughout the Series

### Season 1

To the Waters and the Wild

Ben is first introduced after Riven discovers a dead corpse-victim to a burned one. Ben is shown examining the body to then come to the conclusion-due to char residue-that this occurrence was due to the beasts whom have not been sighted in sixteen years.

## Appearance

He is bald with brown eyes and wears glasses.

## Powers and Abilities

### Basic Fairy Abilities

* **Channeling:** Like every fairy, Ben possesses the ability to channel his own emotions as a source of power to fuel his magic. He also has the ability to channel the Stone Circle.
* **Eye-Color Shifting:** Once Ben's powers are in use, his eyes shift to a silver color.

#### Earth Fairy Abilities

* **Geokinesis:** Ben possesses the ability to manipulate the matter of natural surfaces. He utilized this technique to incapacitate Beatrix, by sinking her feet into the ground, enabling Farah Dowling to place the runic limiters on her.
* **Wood Manipulation:** Ben has displayed the ability to manipulate wood. In A Fanatic Heart, he is shown sealing the entrance of the Winx Suite, by merging the two doors together and sealing the crack between them. This prevented the residents of the suite to leave as well as any to enter.

Due to the fact that his eyes glow in a silver color, it is implied that he has unlocked his connection to all or most of the other elements.

### Other Fairy Abilities

* **Convergence Magic:** Ben combined his magic with Rosalind and Farah to set a lightning strike upon a thought-to-be-evacuated Aster Dell.
* **Alchemy:** The ability to combine ingredients by using scientific and magical knowledge, to create various potions with magical effects. Ben is very experienced in the creation of potions, as he is the Botany teacher at Alfea.

Tsukimishin (Sou)

**INTRODUCTION**

Known for being Xyag's most cringe and unfunny user, Sou is often found tooting into the void on the timeline. They do not sleep, only toot and therefore have an absurd amount of toots. They can be found on kinsta @d3vi1t0wn but tend to hibernate on xyag at all times. "Sou" is a k\*nner and has a massive kinlist almost as long as their fat meat.

**RELATIONSHIPS**

Sou is dating xyag user @keijishinogi who they love very much, and has beef with @idate after their piss jar was stolen by the latter. This led to an ongoing rivalry. It can be assumed that everyone else on xyag would kill Sou with their bare hands if given the chance.

He and his wife Vanessa had a child in 2004, a little girl born with a heart defect. Three days later, the defect had miraculously healed. Unbeknownst to them, their human daughter had been switched with a fairy child, a practice referred to as Changeling. They raised this child, Bloom, as their own for the following years.

Their relationship with Bloom was fraught until an explosive argument that resulted in him taking down Bloom's bedroom door, robbing her of privacy, because she was an introvert and wouldn't open up to her mother. In the middle of the following night, Bloom accidentally used her fire fairy powers to set fire to the house and attack her mother. Mike seemed physically sound, though Vanessa suffered third-degree burns.

After the fire, Bloom was seemingly accepted to a private school in Switzerland and left Gardenia.

### Season 1

In To the Waters and the Wild, Mike and his wife call Bloom as she's getting settled in Alfea. They believe she's in Switzerland and the call ends when she has to pretend that it's late and she's going to bed.

Later on, they are called by Bloom in the evening. She asks them if she's made a mistake and they reassure her. Throughout the following episodes, it is revealed they call her every day when they believe the morning is in Switzerland.

In A Fanatic Heart, they call Bloom, but Aisha answers, telling them her exams are hard. A couple of days later, Bloom shows up at the door with her friends. She tell them all about her origin and that she's a fairy. They seem very supportive of her and her friendships.

Realm of Darkness

Bloom in the Realm of Darkness in "All the Wild Witches"

The **Realm of Darkness** is a magical world that is home to beings such as Shadow and the Scrapers.

## Background

In the past, someone attempted to summon Shadow from the Realm of Darkness and it nearly destroyed the Otherworld. A thousand years ago, Bloom Peters' biological mother sealed herself away in the Realm of Darkness after she killed several people with the Dragon Flame.

## *Fate: The Winx Saga*

### Season 2

In 2021, Sebastian Valtor started to enact his plan of resurrecting the Blood Witches of Aster Dell who were killed by Rosalind Hale, Farah Dowling, and Ben Harvey. He intended on opening the conduit to the Realm of Darkness to call forth Shadow and have it bring the dead Blood Witches back to life. To do this, Sebastian summoned Scrapers from the Realm of Darkness and commanded them to steal fairy magic from the students of Alfea College. He also planned on having Bloom Peters relinquish the Dragon Flame to him so that no one in the Otherworld would have the power to stop him.

Sebastian was able to collect enough fairy magic to open the conduit to the Realm of Darkness. He was later destroyed by the combined magic of Bloom, Stella, Aisha, and Terra Harvey - four fairies who had rediscovered transformation magic. Despite Sebastian's death, Bloom sensed the conduit to the Realm of Darkness was still open. Knowing that the only way to close the conduit is from within the Realm of Darkness itself, Bloom wrote farewell letters to her suite mates and shared a last goodbye with her boyfriend Sky. She entered the Realm of Darkness and closed the conduit, eventually finding her way to the location where her biological mother was residing. However, Shadow was able to escape from the Realm of Darkness beforehand and appeared at the grave of Beatrix.

## Notable Inhabitants

* Bloom Peters
* Bloom Peters' birth mother
* Scrapers
* Shadow (formerly)

## Changes from *Winx Club*

The Realm of Darkness is inspired by several realms from the *Winx Club* series:

* Darkar's Fortress  was home to Lord Darkar , the character which Shadow is based on.
* Obsidian  was the realm that Bloom's mother, Queen Marion , was entrapped in for years, similar to Bloom's biological mother in *Fate: The Winx Saga*. Both Queen Marion and Bloom's birth mother willingly allowed themselves to enter their respective dark realms; in Queen Marion's case, it was to be with her husband King Oritel , while Bloom's biological mother did it out of guilt for killing thousands with the Dragon Flame.
* The Dark Dimension , from which Valtor , the *Winx Club* character that Sebastian Valtor is based on, was seeking to free beings which he referred to as his brothers in the eighth season  of *Winx Club*.

Brian Young

**Brian Young** is an American television producer. He is the creator, showrunner, and an executive producer of *Fate: The Winx Saga*. Young was formerly one of the staff writers for *The Vampire Diaries* on The CW.

Young is a newcomer to the *Winx Club* franchise. According to an interview in *The Guardian*, he chose to "ditch the look" of the cartoon Winx fairies, who have big eyes and sparkling outfits. He said, "Look, again, I'm a massive manga anime fan... but nobody looks like that."

Also according to the same interview, Young's version of "Alfea will feel familiar – and not just to the 14- to 25-year-olds who grew up watching Winx Club on Nickelodeon." The show is a half-British production and it shares similarities with *Harry Potter* (Young even added a name-drop of *Harry Potter* in one episode). Brian Young elaborated that magical schools are "a fantasy that I think a lot of people have when they're that age, because you're just trying to find somewhere where you don't feel so alone and so different."

Fate- The Winx Saga - The World Explained
Changelings

> A changeling is a fairy baby that's switched with a human one at birth.
>
> Aisha to Bloom, *To the Waters and the Wild*

**Changelings** are fairies who were sent to the First World as infants, where they are swapped out with human children and subsequently raised as humans themselves. The human parents of changelings are usually unaware of the magical nature of their children.

## History

The practice of making changelings is considered barbaric in the Otherworld and it rarely occurs in modern times. Sixteen years before Bloom Peters' arrival at Alfea, she was born to unidentified fairy parents, but was kidnapped by the Blood Witches of Aster Dell because she possessed the legendary Dragon Flame. The fairy Rosalind was able to rescue the infant girl after she aided in the destruction of Aster Dell. Rosalind implanted a vision within the girl's mind that would activate once she was old enough, instructing her to come and find her.

To keep the girl safe, Rosalind took her to the First World and left her in the care of Mike and Vanessa Peters, whose own biological daughter died shortly after birth from a heart defect. However, the Peters were unaware of this as Rosalind made the switch without their knowledge. In doing so, Rosalind made the baby girl a changeling. Mike and Vanessa named the changeling Bloom and raised her for sixteen years in Gardenia as their own daughter.

Farah Dowling discovered Bloom in the First World after her powers as a fire fairy manifested. She invited Bloom to study at Alfea College in order to learn how to control her magic. Although Farah knew that Bloom was a changeling, she told her she was descended from a dormant fairy bloodline in hopes of sparing Bloom from the anguish that would result from knowing her changeling nature. However, Bloom's roommate Aisha was able to deduce that she was a changeling after Bloom told her she survived a heart defect in the womb, and from the extraordinary amount of power Bloom wielded in the forest that wouldn't be possible for someone from a dormant bloodline.

After learning about her past from Rosalind, Bloom returned to Gardenia in order to tell Mike and Vanessa that she was a fairy.

## Trivia

* Changelings were not present in the original *Winx Club*  series, but the concept was adapted from European folklore.
* In the novel *The Fairies' Path*, Beatrix tells Dane a changeling was responsible for the Great Fire of London. This dialogue is absent from the final cut of the episode the novel was partially adapted from. In addition, the veracity of the statement is unclear, as Riven states that Beatrix was feeding Dane "changeling garbage". Beatrix, however, claims that changelings are dangerous nonetheless.

D'arcy Daniels

D'arcy Daniels is an unseen character from Fate: The Winx Saga. She is the sister of Beatrix and Isobel Daniels.

## Throughout the Series

### Season 2

In All the Wild Witches, Beatrix tells Stella she has find out has two sisters. When Stella visits Beatrix grave, she holds a letter with the names Isobel and D'arcy Daniels.

## Changes from *Winx Club*

* D'arcy is an Adaptation of Darcy  from Winx Club .

## Trivia

* D'arcy's cartoon counterpart, Darcy, has power over darkness and illusions, which in *Fate: The Winx Saga* could be a form of Light Magic. However, as she has also exhibited abilities over mind and hypnotic magic, it is reasonable that she may have Mind Magic in the show. Though there is the possibility that she has both elements.
	+ There are fan theories which suggest that Isobel, D'arcy and Beatrix are half sisters, which could explain the different powers they have, as fairy families usually have one shared element due to inheritance.

Bloom Peters (biological daughter)

**Bloom Peters** is a deceased character from *Fate: The Winx Saga*. She is the biological daughter of Mike and Vanessa Peters who was switched with Bloom shortly after birth.

## Biography

### Birth and Death

The biological daughter of Mike and Vanessa Peters was born on December 12, 2004. She seemingly died shortly after birth or the following day due to a heart defect present in the womb. Bloom was then left by Rosalind with the Peters family, taking her place and name. Mike and Vanessa were unaware that their biological daughter died shortly after birth until sixteen years later, when Bloom discovers the truth and eventually reveals it to them.

## Throughout Throughout the Series

### Season 1

In Season 1 Episode 1: "To the Waters and the Wild," Aisha has trouble believing that Bloom is from a dormant bloodline of fairies as she was told, based on the power of the magic she was able to draw on without much effort. Aisha asks if there is any way Bloom was adopted, to which Bloom replies "No, I've heard the story of my birth a million times. 'Miracle baby...' I had a heart defect in the womb, but a day after I was born it was gone." From this Aisha surmises that Bloom is a changeling, a fairy baby that is switched with a human one at birth. It was the Peters human baby that had the heart defect, and it "disappeared" because an infant Bloom took that baby's place.

In Season 1 Episode 6: "A Fanatic Heart," Rosalind states that she left Bloom in the First World with Vanessa and Mike because the guidance Bloom needed was love, which no one else could give to her. Bloom is surprised that Rosalind knows the names of her adoptive family, to which Rosalind replies: "I knew they were about to lose a daughter. I gave them a second chance." If Rosalind is to be believed, this indicates that the Peters unnamed biological daughter did not survive her infancy and was replaced with Bloom, rather than being "switched" and placed in the Otherworld, or killed. It is unclear how Rosalind would have known that the baby would not survive, or how she found the Peters family specifically. It is also unknown what happened to the deceased infant after being switched with Bloom.

Bloom returns to Gardenia to tell her adoptive parents the truth. The dialogue is not heard, however the fate of the infant and discovery of Bloom's powers are seen to be tearful revelations. Mike and Vanessa comfort each other while looking through Bloom's baby books, presumably grieving their biological daughter and coming to terms with Bloom's otherworldly gifts. Despite their shock and sadness, they ultimately accept Bloom as their daughter, and the trio hug.

## Trivia

* She's an original character to the Netflix series.
* Because Bloom was switched with her and raised in her stead, it can be naturally assumed that her name (If she already was named) was also Bloom.

> Sebastian Valtor to Bloom Peters, "Are You a Good Witch or a Bad Witch?"

The **Blood Witch Book** is a text written in an ancient language which contains information on magic. It originally belonged to Sebastian Valtor's father, a Blood Witch from Aster Dell, before it ended up in the Royal Archives of Solaria.

## Overview

The Blood Witch Book is a thick tome with a brown cover inscribed in ancient symbols. It has two metallic clasps to fasten the book when not in use. The Blood Witch Book contains yellowed pages on which passages of magical information is written in a language only known to Blood Witches. However, a text known as *A Study of Ancient Languages* is also able to translate the contents of the Blood Witch Book.

The most notable passages in the Blood Witch Book are those pertaining to Scrapers, including information on how they are summoned and how to restore the magic of a fairy drained by one.

## Background

Sebastian Valtor's father was a collector of Blood Witch relics and was the original owner of the Blood Witch Book before he was killed in the destruction of Aster Dell. Following this event, the Blood Witch Book came into the possession of the Royal Archive of Solaria.

In 2021, Rosalind Hale asked a member of the Solarian royal family - Arthur - to borrow the Blood Witch Book from the Royal Archives in order to investigate the mystery behind two fairies who were found catatonic in Blackbridge after going missing. Using the Blood Witch Book, Rosalind was able to deduce the fairies were attacked by Scrapers from the Realm of Darkness, creatures that feed on magic.

## *Fate: The Winx Saga*

### Season 2

Rosalind continued using the Blood Witch Book to study a Scraper she had captured after it attacked Devin, a Mind Fairy and student at Alfea College. Bloom Peters later found the book while snooping in Rosalind's office, taking pictures of the page about Scrapers and several other pages in the Blood Witch Book. She quickly returned it to desk drawer she found it in when Rosalind returned to her office.

Dominion Wars

The **Dominion Wars** were ancient conflicts which happened one millennium before the events of Fate: The Winx Saga.

## *Fate: The Winx Saga*

### Background

The Dominion Wars were a series of conflicts which happened during the period of the Otherworld's history known as the First Dominion, one thousand years before Bloom Peters arrived to Alfea College.

During the Dominion Wars, the Company of Light faced against the Army of Darkness, but the forces of light were not able to prevail over those of darkness, at which point one individual named Marion summoned a shadow power from the deepest corners of darkness.

The Dominion Wars were finally ended when Bloom Peters' birth mother used the Dragon Flame. However she ultimately lost control of the Dragon Flame and killed thousands of people, and out of remorse she sealed herself in the Realm of Darkness after placing her newly born baby daughter who had inherited of the Dragon Flame into stasis to protect her from its power.

The Burned Ones were created during the Dominion Wars when the Dragon Flame was used against the soldiers who participated in it.

### Season 1

Rosalind Hale referred to the Dominion Wars without explicitly mentioning them by name when she revealed to Farah Dowling that the Dragon Flame exists inside Bloom and that the Burned ones were created by it in an ancient war.

### Season 2

After Rosalind took over the direction of Alfea, she assigned Bloom reading about the Dominion Wars. In one passage that Bloom read aloud, it was mentioned that one individual named Marion summoned a shadow power when the Company of Light was not being able to defeat the Army of Darkness.

Sebastian Valtor later revealed to Bloom that she was the daughter of a fairy who possessed the Dragon Flame and was the hero of the Dominion Wars until she lost control and killed thousands of people, after which she placed her newly born daughter in stasis and sealed herself within the Realm of Darkness out of remorse for the destruction she had caused.

## Participants

* Bloom Peters' birth mother
* Marion
* The Company of Light
* The Army of Darkness

## Changes from *Winx Club*

The Dominion Wars are loosely based on the attack of the Ancestral Witches  on Domino , the birth planet of Bloom , which they did so they could steal the power of the Dragon Flame  that burned inside baby Bloom.

Bloom's parents, Queen Marion  and King Oritel  of Domino formed the Company of Light  to fight against the Ancestral Witches, and they disappeared at the end of the war against the Ancestral Witches.
