Hello! This is a character info/planning thread for writers interested in the Thrashers prompt listed in the original group request thread. Please see the original thread here for info.
The plot idea: A bunch of skaters/older teenagers (18-19)/young adults live in a super boring, strict town where they struggle to express themselves. It's super Gravity Falls style but even darker where they hang out in the woods and skate down old abandoned sewage pipes and go urban exploring. A lot of strange things start happening, though. Like they accidentally trespass or go somewhere the supernatural world doesn't want them to be. The town suddenly becomes dangerous and a bunch of kids who had no previous aspirations in life are suddenly thrust into a paranormal battle against something beyond their realm.
Essentially, the premise for characters are young adults who are struggling to find a purpose. They could be college drop-outs, delinquents, outcasts, you name it. Whatever their label, they are stuck in a very small, traditional, dead town where they are largely looked down upon by other citizens for not being quiet and proper. Which is why the forests, skate parks, and abandoned structures are their escapes. (And they y'know something happens and uh oh supernatural stuff!)
I'm not really going to include a bio template unless that would be preferred. Otherwise, name, age, gender they identify with, maybe a small description of their appearance (or face claim if you'd like), and a fairly detailed backstory would be sufficient.
I don't have much plot developed so I'm very open to suggestions, ideas, etc.! :]
