Scanlan is a bad father who isn't there for his daughter. He makes a few attempts to reconcile with her, but they're pathetic. One such attempt in Season 3 ends with Scanlan getting drunk and vomiting in the street.
Vex and Vax are also basically abandoned by their father, who treated them poorly when they were children.

A lamb is stomped on in episode one - it’s quick but sad. Once the lamb appears on screen out of the bush, look away.
Episode 5 - they let their horses ride off a cliff and they’re seen hitting the floor. It’s only a split second but it’s not pleasant. There’s also some evil zombie wolves and a half man/half tiger that get killed.

multiple instances of this throughout episodes 4 and 6 in particular, with a few instances in episode 2. (light spoilers)
episode 2 shows a dragon attacking some troops. multiple soldiers have their heads crushed in various ways (DESCRIPTION FOLLOWING mainly by being dropped or flung against trees DESCRIPTION OVER).
the creatures in episode 4 do a form of this repeatedly against the guards.
in episode 6, right at the beginning when the meeting is interrupted, there's a lot of brutal violence around people's heads. the same is true towards the end of the same episode when they're trying to escape. the one woman who tries to help scanlan gets it pretty graphically and it's up close.
to a lesser extent, a few people also (LIGHT DESCRIPTION, NOT QUITE A HEAD SQUASH) get their heads/faced punched in, not as much graphic visuals here.

this is also the case in episode 5, but they're different creatures altogether. they're much more like zombies than ghosts.

there aren't any jokes at the expense of trans people, and no jokes about men in dresses.
there is one moment in episode 5 where scanlan briefly turns into a tall and busty woman, but he looks identical to himself otherwise--he comments that he looks really good, and grog is "aroused and confused" (mostly bc it's scanlan, not because he's a man).
this happens while scanlan is reading from a scroll that he pulls out of a bag, and firsts changes into a couple of different animals.

In the original show the character is alive for both the arc that was adapted for season 1 and the arc that will be adapted for the greenlighted season two, so no reason to spoil something that might never be made into the animated show. Also is important to point out their death has nothing to do with their sexuality, it has to do with the extremely violent and dangerous world (as the other triggers point out) they live in

this show is *very* gory. it's animated, but it's very, very explicit and graphic, basically in every episode.
i, personally, can't stand gore in live action shows, but rarely do i have to look away from the violence here, even when it's gruesome. that's totally up to personal tolerance, though.
