For centuries, war had waged across the seven planes of the Magical Realm - battles so legendary, their ferocity was matched only by their scale. It's all a little intense which is exactly why Jack, a wizard commanding the elemental forces of nature, has decided that maybe he'll give living in Footscray a try. At least the rent is cheap. After accidentally causing a magical catastrophe, his existence (and that of his fellow magical immigrants) is revealed to the Australian public. Fearing a backlash against himself and his kind, Jack swears off using magic in a bid to better assimilate into human life. But of course, fitting in was never going to be easy when people tend to get a bit 'explode-y' whenever you sneeze...
