comment
Goodbye to Halos is a queer fantasy adventure webcomic started in November 2015 by Valerie Halla.The story's main character, Fenic, is a transgender girl with latent magical powers who was pushed by her father through a portal into another world and abandoned there when she was 15. Lost and hurt, she slowly cut ties with her past and remade her life in the city of Lionsbridge, more precisely in Market Square, where queer, rejected people have gathered and formed a community. However, five years later, when she seems to have finally gotten her life back on track, someone comes looking for her from another world, and she soon realizes she might be connected to a much bigger story than she imagined.Oh, and most characters have animal ears and tails.One major focus of the story is exploring human relationships that don't fall into neat categories (for instance, when two people fall somewhere between "friends" and "romantic partners".)The comic can be found here. The author has also written a side story, Animal Girlfriends, which focuses on secondary character Fran and her two partners and which, unlike the comic, contains explicitly sexual scenes. No connection with a certain video game franchise.

Thinking Up Portals

comment
Thinking Up Portals: Travelling between the various worlds usually requires one of the existing portals, with a special crystal that needs to be keyed to a specific destination world. Clarissa can somehow able to open a portal to Enae's bedroom, and later a beach, without needing an existing portal, and with only a raw piece of crystal that she'd found.

Wholesome Crossdresser
 Goodbye to Halos (Webcomic) / int_28f852ea
comment
Wholesome Crossdresser: The closest trope for Leo's gender expression, since he is fond of skirts and feminine clothing. The author has stated that Leo finds it important to show that guys can be as feminine as they want to be. Though since he wants feminine clothing to be able to be considered a normal thing for guys, and since he's stated to some extent identify as genderqueer, "crossdressing" doesn't really fit.

Facial Markings: Fenic has one by her eye. As it turns out, all Shades have one, called a maave, apparently unique to them. Fenic's is identical to her mother's though, which should be impossible.

Our Demons Are Different: Shades, apparently based on demons, are a race capable of doing magic that are native to only one world. They have horns, tails, and Cute Little Fangs. They can also lose themselves anger, fear, and grief and become beings called "goners".
