PLOT (SO FAR)In this story, the living and the dead co-exist withone another, with the presence of these spirits being undisputed amongst theliving. The majority of the dead are made up of “spectres” - harmless, ghostlywhite souls that wander aimlessly and have no awareness of their surroundings.They are no threat to humans, but are a nuisance. Think of them as knats ordandelion seeds.There is, however, an incredibly rare form of spiritcategorised as “malignants”. These are people who were so wretched in theirlife that their souls became warped, twisting into predatory beasts. Unlikespectres, they are self-aware and capable of communicating with the living.They are rumoured to seduce the needy and vulnerable into fusing souls to getanother chance at life.CAST (SO FAR)

Rose H. Barton (19): Born with a distinctive red birthmark covering her right eye, Rose’s childhood was not an easy one. Despite this, she possesses an unusual amount of determination uncharacteristic of her meek disposition. Her life growing up is a mystery, but she will first make an appearance in the story while moving into Wolfe’s town, bringing with her new insight and an unorthodox way of counteracting the ghostly epidemic …

Wolfe Gray (23): We first meet Wolfe as a child, staggering blindly through an endless forest of winding trees. Sick with scarlet fever and quickly succumbing to the freezing temperatures, he’s approached by a smooth-talking, ghostly blue hound offering him a deal he can’t refuse: “Will you die here, boy, or become one with me?”

Hunter (surname TBA) (38): Little is known about this enigmatic priest except that his faith seems unwavering despite the bleak reality of what the afterlife has in store for the living. He is a man of very few words and an outward appearance that seems to betray his occupation, but his past is ultimately unclear.

Ghasper (???): Wolfe’s malignant. A deceptive and unpredictable spirit in the form of a blue hound. Ghasper fused with Wolfe in his childhood and they have been stuck together ever since.
