The Bureau of Magical Things

The human and magic worlds co-existed in harmony, but as technology advanced, the magic world was pushed back, and fairies and other magical creatures became endangered species. Now, someone wants to change that and restore magic to its rightful place. When Kyra uncovers a threat to both the human and magic worlds, she must try to unite humans, elves, and fairies in order to save them all. The Bureau must solve the mystery of who the enigmatic figure is and how they will achieve their goal. The investigation leads them to uncover secrets in both the human and magic worlds that no one could have imagined. ==Cast and characters==

Main • Kimie Tsukakoshi as Kyra Glen, a teenage girl whose life is changed after an encounter with a magic book is thought to have transformed her into a "triling": part human, part fairy and part elf. While wary of her new circumstances, she is learning to accept her new reality. • Elizabeth Cullen as Imogen Blackwell, an elf training to become a member of the Department of Magical Intervention (DMI). Although serious about her training, she does not believe in teamwork. At first quite wary of Kyra, she begins to soften to her. • Mia Milnes as Lily Regan, a fairy training to become a member of the DMI. She is friendly, with a bubbly personality, and quickly warms to Kyra. • Julian Cullen as Darra Blackwell, Imogen's brother, an elf training to become a member of the DMI. Compared to his sister, he is more friendly and less serious about his studies. • Rainbow Wedell as Ruksy Tavola, a fairy training to become a member of the DMI. Like Lily, she is friendly, but she is also much more serious. • Jamie Carter as Peter, Kyra's friend. He loves comics and is very suspicious of the magical phenomena that occur around him. • Christopher Sommers as Professor Maxwell, a bookstore owner and teacher of magic for the DMI. He is a halfling: half human and half elf. He cares greatly for his students and wants them to reach their full magical potential. Recurring • Arnijka Larcombe-Weate as Mathilda Brennan, Kyra's best friend and fellow basketball player who doesn't know of Kyra's magical powers. • Steve Nation as Steve Glen, Kyra's stepfather and a local police officer who is also unaware of Kyra's powers. • Melanie Zanetti as Orla (season 1), an elf who's one of the DMI's top agents and Imogen's idol who poses as a reporter. She is an old acquaintance of Maxwell's and apparently has her own agenda involving Kyra. • Nicholas Bell as Sean Regan, Lily's father and the Director of Magic. • Miah Madden as Tayla (season 2), a mysterious fairy who is a new student at River City High School and works at the Gangway café. • Matthew Manahan as Ben (season 2), a musician whom Lily has a crush on. • Tasneem Roc as Dr Apinya Surinat (season 2), an old associate of Professor Maxwell's who takes his place when he is forced to step aside. The trainees, especially Kyra, soon find reason to be suspicious of her. ==Production==
