Welcome to Deda
So, you're dead. Sucks!
Except you might not feel dead—after what feels like a long brush with dreamless sleep, you wake up in a quaint hole: a coffin in an uncovered grave, blanketed in fog. Entombed with you are any personal items (unless they're trial evidence, sorry), and a strange feeling of... lightness? Whatever corruption was in your blood seems to have cleared away with your death, and your injuries are healed, besides any cool scars and lingering aches.
Once you make your way out, a quiet, verdant graveyard (literal) awaits you. You could take a look around the various locations, but the same fog that greeted you surrounds this place, keeping you from venturing too far outside of the town limits.
Still, you may as well get yourself situated. You're not done yet.

Welcome to the graveyard! Here's a quick primer:
You are dead. However, characters are healed of their critical injuries; they may keep any scars or lingering pains that you like. Additionally, they are no longer corrupted. The monstrous force inside you has subsided; this means characters will no longer have powers, etc.
● Setting ● The graveyard has the overall look and feel of a small New England town from the '90s; characters can travel any of the Graveyard Locations, fenced in by fog and forests. But the fog makes this place otherworldly, and strangely permeable. Maybe you can influence your surroundings?
● Living Watch ● Where there are screens, you can view the living side. This includes televisions at the bar, Heaven's Night, and in the apartment lobby—you may even spot a passing glimpse of them in a mirror or glass of water. Only public gatherings like mingles, trial, etc, can be seen and heard this way.
● Items ● Personal inventory transfers over to the graveyard, including items that may be stolen during trial. The only items that stay on the living side are ones that are voluntarily given away. Thursday victims will receive their items in their rooms on Sunday, after Execution. Those who arrive any other day will have their items in their grave with them.
● Injuries and Death ● Characters can still be injured and die here. While characters do not stay dead, please let the mods know if it does happen, so we can inform you of how it works.
● Audiences ● You can audience Death in person, but none of the other NPCs are currently available. You can ignore the note section and go to the apartment penthouse directly to visit, or meet him wherever.
● Effects and Events ● Weekly effects still hit the graveyard, and you may use items on the living unless otherwise noted. Mini-events will go up at the same time as their living counterparts. CYOAs are still available for our sweet deda.
● OOC Notes ● Alluding to the fact that the graveyard exists OOCly is okay, but please keep details of what it looks like, what happens here, plot, et cetera, to yourselves. Feel free to ask the mods if you're not sure about anything!

this time boothill is just leaving for the bar. if he didn't recognize her orange hair, he might have thought worse of someone standing motionless outside while covered in gore.
he rushes forward immediately. he's going to run out of cape soon. ]
Erin...! What in the fudge— You didn't go to the lighthouse too, did ya'? We- We gotta get ya' to Nehan!
no subject
These burns probably are cursed. Can he even do anything about that?
no subject
[ he stops himself from touching those burns and just studies them with a wrinkled nose. ]
Outta all of us here, I'd say he's the best chance we got at that. Worth a shot. First off, we gotta stop you bleedin' everywhere. Hands cursed too?
[ he will have no cape left after all of this... ]
no subject
[She lets herself just have her hands into the cape, not protesting. She's too exhausted for that]
Fine, I'll go see Nehan. Just get me something strong ready for after that. I really need it.
[Nothing like trying to fight guilt with booze]
no subject
[ wait. what did he hear. ]
Did you say... Karma died?
no subject
[Take it from her, it's not great and fun!]
He did. A thing that pretended to be Kate got him. It was like a bear trap closing around him.
[She touches the cuts on her hands
Got these trying to get him out but I couldn't--
[Erin winces, can't bring herself to keep going. It's hard for her to talk about this because, well, can't help like she caused Karma to die two times already]
no subject
S'all right, Miss Erin. Good you're back safe, all right?
[ aventurine mentions bringing her inside to nehan, so! ]
You mind tellin' me where exactly y'all went one more time?
no subject
[Apparently being real shaken up doesn't stop her from being all evocative when retelling things]
But the longer we stayed the worse it got. From within the wall, some fleshy baby things extended. Some weird thing crawled out of the TV. Slimy evil goop seeped from everywhere, burning me. And then, once we found a way out through the bathroom--
--we got to Scawwy. A much nicer Scawwy. It was meant to lull us into giving up and staying there.
That's where Karma died.
no subject
even if it's. confusing as hell. ]
What in tarnation... You remember what room y'all were in?
no subject
[And so it'll stay a mystery forever, since it can't be accessed anymore -- which is absolutely for the better, in her opinion. Stay away from that cursed place]
no subject
[ he figured as much, with how this place is. they arrive at nehan soon enough; after they hear from him about what these rocks are, boothill's going out looking for karma, stupid or not. ]
