Star Darlings is a Disney-published franchise created in 2015 by Shana and Ahmet Zappa. The franchise focuses on the inhabitants of Starland, who live on a star and grant human wishes. To the Starlings, Earth is Wishworld and we're Wishlings.Due to a positive wish energy crisis, it's decided that 12 young female Starlings, called Star Darlings, will take up the difficult task of granting young Wishlings' wishes. It's hoped that doing so will provide greater amounts of energy. But finding what, or who, is behind the crisis may prove more difficult than granting wishes, and keeping Starland safe from danger afterwards may be even harder. The Starlings must work together as a team granting wishes in Wishworld and saving Starland from the negative energy, all while keeping their identities as wish-granters hidden.A series of chapter books and novels are the main story focus. An animated web series, TV specials, supplementary books, dolls, lifestyle and storytelling apps, and music supplement the series. After January 2017, all franchise activity halted with the cancellation of three planned books and discontinuation of the toyline and web series. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Glowfur songs are passed around to every glowfur that hears them, and the Song of Secrets can reveal deep truths. In Gemma's book, Lady Stella and Indirra compose a song this way to reach Itty, who alerts the other Star Darlings to where they are. Leona's burnt-out Wish Pendant, and Ophelia's identical one, are some of the clues that the Star Darlings use in their investigation. In Gemma's book, Leona's pendant is restored and helps defeat Rancora. | |

Foregone Conclusion: Subverted in-universe, as around 50 percent of wish missions end in failure, usually due to misidentifying the wisher, misidentifying the wish, or running out of time to grant it. | |

Because Destiny Says So | |
| Star Darlings / int_3f70415 | comment |
Because Destiny Says So: Deconstructed. The various prophecies related are fated to be accurate, and while this is positive for the girls, it was negative for Lady Stella, who saw her friendship with Rancora disintegrate and her former best friend turn evil. The headmistress at the time, Lady Astrid, noted that she couldn't accept Cora back at the Academy, not only because of what she'd done, but because doing so would undermine the prophecy. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In Good Wish Gone Bad, Stella and Cora's attempt to inspire a girl instead causes her to make a bad wish. Cora's illegal attempt to destroy the orb ends up threatening Starland and exposing her to the negative energy unleashed, altering her personality and resulting in her expulsion. The canceled book One Star Too Far would have had Sage abandoning Vivica on Earth and becoming a Dark Starling, and she would try and rescue Vivica and earn her forgiveness before it's too late. | |

The Chosen One | |
| Star Darlings / int_89631688 | comment |
The Chosen One: Prophecies, both good and bad, are seen throughout the series. In Good Wish Gone Bad, Lady Stella and Lady Rancora were both subjects of a prophecy, with Stella saving Starland while Rancora would bring it to ruin. An ancient book foretells of 12 young Starlings whose wish-granting will save Starland. In the web series the girls learn this immediately, but in the books they don't learn it until the very end of Tessa's book. In Stealing Starlight another prophecy reveals that a Dark Starling will rise and decide the fate of Starland, and Rancora believes it's Vivica. The canceled book One Star Too Far would have had Sage become the Dark Starling after abandoning Vivica on Earth during a Wish Mission gone wrong. | |

| Star Darlings / int_bf2412a1 | comment |
Recap Episode: Libby's book has a recap of Sage's adventure a fourth of the way through. It's justified in-universe as a teaching example, pointing out what Sage did wrong as well as what she did right. | |

Cliffhanger | |
| Star Darlings / int_c6b8d37a | comment |
Cliffhanger: Libby and the Class Election ends with the girls learning that Scarlet isn't actually a Star Darling. Later books have her trying to clear her name. Cassie's book ends with the girls suspecting Ophelia of wrongdoing. They go to her room and find she's vanished, and for the first time in Starland's history the lights go out. Stealing Starlight ends with Lady Stella discovering the prophecy about the Dark Starling and assuming it must be Vivica. | |

The Symbiote | |
| Star Darlings / int_c7a56f9e | comment |
The Symbiote: Starland and Wishworld have the mutualism variant of this, as Starlanders grant Wishworlder's wishes to keep their planet alive. Without positive wish energy Starland would die out, and without granted wishes Earth would be a depressing place to live. | |

The Corruption | |
| Star Darlings / int_cf168867 | comment |
The Corruption: The negative energy flowers that made everyone argue came from the Isle of Misera, a negative energy dumping ground. Negative energy in general threatens the way of life in Starland and makes people negative and evil, and in Astra's book some appears on Earth to block the girls' way. | |

You Mean "Xmas": Starland has "Wish Giving," which, same as Thanksgiving, is an Autumn holiday celebrating the harvest. Other celebrations are closer to a Fictional Holiday, but "Light Giving Day" could be compared to the Vernal Equinox, and the Festival of Illumination to pre-Christianized Winter holidays like Yule and the Winter Solstice. | |

Cut Short: The books were canceled in January 2017 with three planned books being shelved, the webseries last aired in late 2016, and Jakks Pacific has ceased producing the toys. The books that were canceled, Star-Crossed Summer, Dark Starling, and One Star Too Far, would have continued dangling plot threads from Stealing Starlight, which ends on a cliffhanger. | |
