STAR GUARDIANS: THE STAR
By Daniel Danitto
A fallen celestial guardian crash-lands on a distant world after losing his light in battle. As ancient darkness rises again, he must fight not only to save the planet, but to reignite the light within himself.
SYNOPSIS:
At the dawn of time, the Universe created the Starfolk, radiant beings born to guard the balance between light and darkness. Among them is Sentinel Star, a young cosmic guardian whose light is shattered in a fierce battle against Black Hole. Cast through the void, he crash-lands on the lush planet Dubnik, home to the peaceful Mossari tribe.
There, the curious Ar, his sister Ella, and their grandfather Bor find the fallen being and choose to help him, unaware that his arrival will change their world forever. While Black Hole slowly advances toward Dubnik, the group embarks on a perilous quest to find the legendary Purple Crystal, the only source capable of restoring the Guardian’s light.
United by courage and friendship, they must face the rising darkness within and beyond, as the fate of their planet and the balance of the Universe hang in the light they fight to protect.

Unique concept and great artwork, Daniel Danitto! I suggest tightening up your logline. I also suggest telling what your protagonist's goal is (I'm guessing it's stop the ancient darkness).

Thanks, Maurice Vaughan ! That’s a great note. In The Star, the protagonist’s drive isn’t rooted in a personal desire but in his very nature, he exists to preserve the cosmic balance. His conflict comes from falling out of that order and rediscovering what light means when it’s almost gone.

You're welcome, Daniel Danitto.
"In The Star, the protagonist’s drive isn’t rooted in a personal desire but in his very nature, he exists to preserve the cosmic balance" I suggest mentioning that in your logline.
The inciting incident, his character, his goal to preserve the cosmic balance (or stop the ancient darkness to preserve the cosmic balance), and an ancient darkness threatens to consume him and the planet.
Also, I think "preserve the cosmic balance" is vague. I suggest explaining that some more.

Thanks again, Maurice Vaughan! That’s a solid note. I’ve reworked the logline to make the Star’s goal and inner conflict clearer. Really appreciate your time and insight.

You're welcome, Daniel Danitto. I think your logline is better. I think it could be tightened up some.
What about this: After a celestial guardian loses his light in battle and crash-lands on a distant world, he battles an ancient darkness to save the planet and reignite the light within himself.
