Its just quick overview. If I put all the details in there for the outline y'all would have bitched about how long it was or said I was just trying peddle fan fiction. The only point that outline serves is that you write a quest and skip the drama that often wastes time and break a series down to one season. If you skip the school life and have the story open up with them already friend and just referring to their time growing up that better IMO than having to see them literally in class. If you have characters die it keep the cast small preventing a large amount of the cast from being left unused and forgetten. Plus the impact of their death and swansong as the die is like a good send off. That way fans of those character can't be like "Fox never got to say a word the whole series then he just vanished as season 3". Finally and most important when death happens and doubt arises the hero feels the pain but bounces back in a timely manner. No spending a whole season moping around. No whining and bitching about how they "can't save anyone". No turning on their friends and acting like someone forced this life on them. When I write its like here's the point let's go for that. Boom boom boom. Hit all the major plot points. Explain all the motives. Each episode serves its purpose to push story along. And you're done. Move on to new show.
