 THE LINGERS

i type out some of the possible direction of the background setting for my character design project during office hours~~ still in developement...might be hard to understand since i din arrange them in a understandable way

possible name for main characters

neil / sermis / witkin / jun / ixis / pokh / silvi / elliott

world setting

a plane where emotions/ imagination/ spirits / thoughts turns into forms

the lingers are the immotals that exist in the spirit plane parrelel to our world

created by someone  - but at first not much ppl know

monsters(name still thinking) are created themselves by the flow of thoughts in current real world... and so are the plants and other interesting things happening in this world.

ppl in the real world hav this rumor that the lingers are following another creator that create a world in between theirs and the result will be the destruction of their world...

possible end 1 / the lingers break free from the real world and escape to a place no one in the reality can find (too sad and negative maybe...)

sea of thoughts
a ocean-like place fill with multi-colors thoughts and spirit from the reality that haven taken a form in the spirit planar. haven figure out how it drain the thoughts from the real world. having problem to decide whether the real world is really our world or just something similar.

how to be a lingering soul
many ways~

the sea drain thougths and spirits to itself, sometimes a particular strong soul will not dissolves into the sea. with a touch of the thoughts  that it craves it will awake. but it will be too weak to sustain a form, to maintain a form in the spirit planar it will hav to combine with the thoughts and emotions that relate the most to it, it will not be like wat it was, it will hav to learn to protect his broken soul cos if it's lost, the spirit that he borrow will consume him and he will become something else.

the land

the more static-nature thoughts and emotions will settle themselves  result in land emerging from sea.  plant and wild animal roam the land, and so are mystical creature that are iconic to the real world. anything exist in the mind of the real world, that is powerful in the mind of people, will have the chance to exist in the spirit planar.

the towns

sometimes a soul will crave for a place for other lingers to share his thoughts, he will use all its souls to create a place, but in return, he will become the place and the soul cannot return to it's former form. ppl in the town will hav to follow the rules of the owner. things that belongs to the town never get out from the town, things that doesn't belong to the town will become lost at the moment when no one else is paying attentions to them. the town drain energy from the visitors and from the sea of thoughts. it usually cannot sustain a large size just by draining energy from the sea. each town serve different purposes of the owner.

the elements

elements are always a source of fascination to the people of reality, the elements in spirit planar adopt the characteristics given by the people and express it with the will of its own.

thats y such things like --- fire of envy / healing water / ice that make your heart cold instead of your body / golden color wind etc.

Magick

awaken soul have the power to manipulate other lesser spirits and thoughts. they can transform it / combine it / compress it or break it. the lingering soul with more powerful will can seek to draw the thoughts and spirit from the sea, or from other lesser soul take taken a form. soul and thoughts that taken a form would be a more suitable choice because it had gathered similar spirits in it , and so the person will spend lesser time to gather the amount of spirits he wants.

a more common destructive magick will need a spirit or thoughts that have a destructive purposes, it is often combine with an element so that it took the form of that element. the will of the lingers is needed for the process, the will is the thoughts of a lingering soul that belong only to himself. if the will is strong enough the process of combining and transforming can be done and the owner will have to claim the ownership by tying it with his soul, he then can store it by compress it and hide it in his body

another kind of magick is by controlling soul that have very little will of its own. the user will have to bind it to his will. he then can alter it's appearance by adding elements or other thoughts. the soul will be able to grow in time but it is almost impossible to break free from it's owner.

by this kind of magic the lingering soul can make---

houses, vehicles, clothing, or even attach to himself and become part of his body

and also stuffs like pets and servants~
