I'm in fact willing accept the love of varigo in my heart if only I knew where to find content
BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO idk if you're serious or not but im gonna pretend like you are. HERE IS MY POWERPOINT:
Varian is the fan favorite side character of "Tangled the series"/ "Rapunzel's Tangled adventure", where he featured as a villain in season 1 (at age 14, a prodigy you might say), and then is brought back as a redeemed character in season 3. He loves alchemy (science), and is voiced by Jeremy Jordan so his voice is angelic. If you haven't watched the show, I'd recommend these compilations to get up to speed:

After the series ends, we got two of the storyboard artists from the show, Kay and Anna, pitching a spin-off series focused on Varian a few years later setting off on his own adventure, known as Varian and the 7 Kingdoms. Here are the character sheets they made for that:
This show was not picked up by disney because they're idiots ("if rapunzel isn't in it, who would want to watch it?" idiots), but the fans collectively said hold my beer. Kay and Anna released the two or so pages of notes they had as a rough outline for the series, and like the Goncharov fandom years later, we took off.
Here is my favorite collection of animatics based on the plot/character interactions by some talented artists:
Here are some INCREDIBLY TALENTED songs written by @daniellekeyer to follow to plot as a musical:
And here is THE FIC, "Varian's Tangled Trials" by @i-found-you-justine-time and @theartistswings, written extremely thoughtfully and skillfully to mirror the style of the Tangled tv show and based on the story notes bestowed on us by Kay and Anna. https://archiveofourown.org/works/24356191/chapters/58734247
...And those are the basics for me personally, but i will MORE THAN GLADLY help you find and consume the many incredible varigo fics (or you can look at the AO3 tag "Hugo/Varian" in the Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure fanfic archive) in the fandom, as well as the beautiful art you are welcome to look through on tumblr by searching the varigo tag.
Lmk if you want some recommendations of blogs to follow as well <3 I think this will get you started.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST AND HAPPY VARIGO-ING
