One of the Lost Children is a simple kid of a varying race anywhere from 1 to 17 years old. Their eyes are normally white, same as the god who blessed them, but they can also become black. When their eyes remain black for an extended period of time their teeth grow into needles and their fingernails grow into 3-inch-long claws. The children’s skin seems to have a slight glow when their eyes are white, and a deathly pale when they are black. The Lost Children are a collection of kids who were taken under the wing of The God of the Lost and Forgotten mostly during his time sealed in his vessel, but that did not stop him after he was freed. Every child was a victim of some type of abuse. Whether abandonment, physical or mental abuse, they eventually come into the realm of the lost, forgotten, and abandoned, sometimes by The Lost God himself. (For more information on the God of the Lost and Forgotten, check here.) After they are taken in by the Lost God, the children are blessed and given the power to enter and exit the realm of the lost and forgotten at will. In addition, to protect them the god granted them the ability to see into a person’s soul. Should a person who has abused, or would abuse children encounters one of the Lost Children, the child’s eyes will turn black and should that person remain in contact with the child for more than a shortened amount of time, the child will attack. No adult has ever heard any of the Lost Children ever speak, even though their own children state that they have spoken to them on several occasions. There is never been more than 1 Lost Child sighted together, but it is not always the same Lost Child visiting the same place. They come and go as they please, however, should a Lost Child stay past sundown it means they are going hunting. This only occurs when they come into contact with an abuser who got away from them before they attacked or survived the initial attack. |
