Into

The car crash was fatal with very few survivors. You remember to how the cars collided in a crunch of glass and metal. Sitting in the passenger's set, you were slowly pulled to the cracked windshield as if time had stopped. A boy around your age met your eyes. he was slowly moving to you from the other car. You closed your eyes as you met at the splintering glass. Then, you were running though a dark tunnel towards a bright light. You weren't sure what the bright light was, but you were mysteriously pulled to it. You herd someone’s footsteps behind you. You curiously turned to see who it was, but your feet stumble. You soon found yourself tumbling through the deep darkness of the surrounding walls. Now here you are, slowly opening your eyes on a leaf covered ground. Looking up, you see that the a face of a girl blocks the sky. Her short red hair dangles from her face and tries to hide her sparkling green eyes. She's smiling at you, happy you've awakened. "Welcome to Everlost," she greets you.

You are stuck between life and death in a world known as Everlost. In Everlost, the living world is viewed in a foggy haze by it's residents. The only thing that in clear focus are places and things that are "dead", destroyed in a past life. The ground of the living world is very unstable to people who live in Everlost, a.k.a Afterlights. Those who are not carful on living ground can easily sink through it to the center of the earth to be never seen again. Water is extremely in the ways it increases the sinking speed to only seconds. Everlost is a world full of kids ranging from nearly five to seventeen years of age. No adults have ever set foot is this land for reasons unknown. When an Afterlight first wakes up from it's nine-month sleep as a Interlight, they notice that they are admitting a weird light from their body. This is their afterglow, a light admitted from a Afterlight that sometimes can reflect their mood. They also realize that they can't take or alter what they are wearing. A person in Everlost forever remains in the clothes they died in. This includes necklaces, hairstyles or anything that happened to be on body. As an Afterlight spends time in their new, their past memories start to wade. Unless they are associated with a "criminal art", Afterlights can easily forget their past life in ways that can alter their appearance or personalities. In this strange world, new lessons are to be learned. It is now up to you what choices you will make and who you will meet along your journey. For in Everlost, nothing is as it seems.

Everlost Terms


Afterglow- The light admitted by each Afterlight. Can sometimes reflect the mood of that person.

Afterlight- The name given to residents of Everlost. There is also another term you could call they that starts with a "g", but they find that very insulting.

deadspot- A small patch of ground that has crossed from living into Everlost. They mark were someone has died or a place has been destroyed. They range from a few inches to a few miles wide. Every Afterlight first wakes up on a deadspot, either at the place where they died or on a current existing patch nearby.

dominant reality- This is what it is called when a destroyed building crosses over to Everlost and a new building is replaced in it's ruins. To Afterlights, these buildings seem to intertwine in and out of reality through the foggy haze. Although the older, crossed building seems more real to them, it is only a opinion of the one who views it.

ecto-ripping- A so called "criminal art". The ability to reach into the living world and "rip" inanimate or living things into Everlost. Some believe an Afterlight gains this power when they touch the light (see description above).

evercookies- Objects and places cross into Everlost for two reasons. One, they were destroyed somehow in the living world. Two, they were once deeply loved. Although they have never been loved, every Fortune cookie somehow finds it's way to Everlost. When they are broken, a ghostly copy of the cookie appears in Everlost. Many Afterlights are afraid of simple pastries because of the rumors of their fortunes in Everlost actually coming true.

eversight- An Afterlight's foggy view of the living world. Only things and places that have crossed into Everlost look clear and solid to them.

everslugs- The insulting name given by Mary Hightower to the worn, faceless coin found in the pocket of every Afterlight. An Afterlight finds this unusual coin when they first wake-up in Everlost. These coin don't have much of a value in Everlost and no one is quite sure what their purpose is.

The Everwild- The term given by large civilizations of Afterlights the areas of Everlost that are unknown or unexplored by them.

fleshie- Skinjacker slang for a living, breathing human.

gravity fatigue- Just like in the real world, gravity affects Afterlights. Since Afterlights are very light, almost as light as air, gravity can pull them into the ground in area of living world. An Afterlight who is not careful can find themselves being pulled to the center of the earth with no hope of returning to the surface.

Interlights - When an Afterlight first crosses into Everlost, they sleep for nine months, like babys who have not yet been born. In this hibernation, they are called Interlights.

peel out- Skinjacker slang for when a Skinjacker leaves the body of a living person.

skinjacknig - Another "criminal art". Gives those the ability to "posses" a living person, by jumping inside that person, and taking control of, him or her

furjacking - An skinjacker who prefers posses animals instead of humans. Usually posses only a certain type on animal.

vapor- A large group of Afterlights.

(Please note that most of these terms have been created by mary Hightower and are most frequently used by her followers.)

(( Silverwingskywolf and The||Dreamer are accepted. Warrior cats rock, could you please write two sentences for your characters personalities and invisibility isn't really a criminal art... you could have her be a skinjacker if you'd like. And Silverwingskywolf, furjackers sometimes look like the animals they posses, not saying you have to change anything, but I just wanted to let you know. There are no animals in Everlost. Furjackers take control of animals in the living world, since Afterlights are ghost. ))
