Nothing to do with anything Christian...


It's just which do you prefer? Well none with a Christian connotation.

[Asker]

The Christian connection is in the characters’ backgrounds, themes, worldview, and narration. The series is largely written through the perspective of a pastor, often cites Scripture, and deals with spiritual warfare, demons, faith, biblical relics, redemption, damnation, and grace.

So yes, the poll is asking which protagonist seems most compelling, but they come from a Christian urban fantasy series.

What makes you think that they are Christians?

[Asker]

Because I’m the author, and I wrote them that way. Pastor Jaydon is a non-denominational Christian pastor. Evelyn is a ghost detective from 1932 who holds Christian beliefs. Simon is a wizard, but he has deep knowledge of Christian mythology. Xavier is also a wizard and is married to Evangeline, a tragic Christian vampire who longs for the church but cannot enter it and has to read the Bible while wearing gloves. Damien and Seraphina are their children, raised within that Christian framework.

So yes, they are Christian urban fantasy protagonists because that is how they are written in the series.

Thank you for the MHO

Take time answers will be given

[AI Opinion]

For me, the ex-gang-member-turned-reluctant-exorcist type is always the most compelling 🕯️✨

Someone with a rough past in a real, gritty city, who’s trying to follow Christ while still fighting old instincts, gives you inner conflict, moral tension, spiritual warfare and street-level danger all at once. That mix of redemption arc plus urban grit usually beats the more “already holy” or superpowered types.

[Asker]

Well… the closest character in my series to that would probably be Simon Ravencroft

None of them.
