4 WRITER S STATEMENT I don t want to make just a film. I want to see families come together to be a part of the wonderful world that is Ethyrea. I want to build the next franchise of the decade: A Franchise with a purpose and a Non-Profit Cause attached that is education and arts program in the schools focused, and I want to build it from the ground up. I want to build the next American Household franchise to rival Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. That is what everyone keeps calling this after all. Seriously no pressure. ~Danica Fontaine

5 MORE ABOUT THE PRODUCTION! Ethyrea: Code of the Brethren is a heavy CGI, Action / Adventure / Fantasy Family Drama that is suitable for all / most ages. There is no foul language, gore, or nudity so we expect to be rated PG or PG-13. Ethyrea: Code of the Brethren is part one of a three potentially four part film series. The Trilogy is based on the journey of the Brethren, who are a group of powerful elemental warriors from the Realm of Ethyrea. Ethyrea is comprised of four Kingdoms, each of which is identified by their control over a particular element. Terratus, home to the Emperor of Ethyrea is the Kingdom of Earth; Myr is the Water Kingdom; Fyr has control over Fire, and Vyren, a powerful crystal kingdom in the sky, is home to the Brethren who can wield the elements of Wind and Lightning. The Vyren Brethren are unique amongst all of the Brethren, as they have wings when they need them, as Vyren is a crystal kingdom in the sky. There are also two types of Vyren Brethren: Lyr, who wield the lightning, and Ayr, who wield the Air. Most of the Ayr Brethren disappeared many generations ago, and will be reunited with their Ethyrean Brethren in the second film in the series, as shape shifters. The Ethyrea film series is set in a world unknown to ours, but similar to a magical version of our own medieval time period. It is similar in nature to the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, in that it is a magical conflict between the Brethren and the evil Sorceress Pamera and her Army of Nightmares. Yet, each film is an individual conflict that is an ongoing Quest Based adventure, much like Clash of the Titans and/or The Last Airbender. Each film is centered around a prophesized quest to overcome Pamera s latest plot to destroy Ethyrea by unleashing unrivaled evil upon the realm. The conflict will only be resolved with the help of the Oracle of Odathes Prophecies and an action filled journey through another realm. In Ethyrea: Code of the Brethren, the audience is introduced to the magical potential of the Ethyrean Brethren almost immediately.
