Ok my first thing on my list of things to do is finish the town map that i have made up, I have a rough sketch but i need to finalize it. Also I need to come up with some last names for my characters. While im thinking of characters I don't know if I should add more characters or just leave it with these two main characters.
As for the story itself I'm not sure if I'm ready to begin writing the actual beginning of the story, I still feel I don't have enough information to work with. So im looking to you to figure out whats next.
OUTLINE AND MAP COMING SOON!

A Few Good Notes
These are some notes about the history of Ashen Point that i wrote in school:
-The town was a popular tourist attraction due to its rich history of paranormal activity
-A small group of cultists came here a few mouths before the Sickness occurred, those who survived to this day blame these cultists for the death of their town and the opening of the Shadow Portal, which isolated the town from the rest of the world
-The survivors of the Sickness came to call themselves The Missing Ones
-The cultists created a hoard of Demons and monsters called The Unknown, these beasts eventually turned on the cultists and killed them all and took over the town, pushing the survivors into the forest in the northeast corner of the town
-The paranormal activity brought about what the town called "The Spirit of Ashen Point" which eventually called upon people from the outside world to come to the dimension this world in in. Kevin is chosen now.
-The Anti-Spirit wanders the town in search of sacrifices (More on this one later)
-The leader of The Unknown is the Demon for of the Kevin's biological father, and sits on top of the Disappearing Tower on Katz Street (More on this later, map of town coming soon)
-The sickness started in the Samuel Johnson Memorial Hospital
-First indication of the Sickness was observed when the animals at the Zoo were going crazy and spontaneously dropping dead in their tracks with no indication of what killed them, the animals were perfectly healthy at time of death
-The Anti-Spirit is also the executioner at the "Demon Prison" where captured survivors are sent and tortured
-To the rest of the world, Ashen Point is simply a ruined town that was destroyed by freak fires, which caused the subways and sewer systems to collapse, making this town completely uninhabitable
-The Sickness causes those who are infected to become mindless creatures who attack anything that looks appetizing (especially humans). There is no known cure (except killing them). These creatures became known by survivors as The Afflicted
-The town is centered in an entirely different dimension, caused by the Shadow Portal, thus creating two towns
The Anti-Spirit
-The Anti-Spirit is the most feared being of all the summoned Demons that wander the town
-It carries a giant axe
-Its appearance is that of a hooded man wearing the bottom of a robe, his face is covered by bandages
-Before it took its humanoid form it was the most hideous and intimidating creature
-It is the executioner of the Demon Prison located in the center of Sunate Lake
The Disappearing Tower
-Built around the Shadow Portal, it serves as the capital of all Demons
-This tower only appears when the Shadow is about to fall on the town, and the powerful Demons and monsters awaken. This Shadow comes and goes at random intervals
-The Demon Lord sits atop this Tower, which we find later in the story is the main character's father in his demon form
-Inside the tower is long narrow hallways and stairs that all meet at the High Seat in the Main Chamber
The Shadow
-It is a darkness that falls upon the town, it signifies the awakening of the powerful Demons and monsters in the town (The weaker ones and hunters wander at all times)
-The warning it the sudden appearance of the Disappearing Tower, and a few minutes later the Shadow falls
Give any advice there's a lot covered here, I'm sure there's something that could use work

New Stuff
Ok so I've decided the first part of the story I'm going to work on is the crash scene when kevin foster parents are killed and he is sucked into the dimension of Ashen Point (with the assistance of my Liz). First I think that the first problem they encounter is static on their car radio before the crash happens which brings me to a new problem: what is causing the static and should is be the cause of the crash as well.
Full Name: Lydia
Age: about 23
One idea i had was that a ghost appears in the blink of an eye and causes whoever is driving to swerve out of the way and smash into a telephone pole
or
i thought that whoever is driving hears this static and while fumbling with the radio to stop the noise they run off the road and into something
Also I've decided that Kevin is going to meet up with a survivor of the Purge:
Nickname: Lyd
Full Name: Lydia
Age: about 23
Birthday: Unknown
Sign: Unknown
Height: About 5' 6"
Weight: About 135 lbs
Hair Color: Short dark brown
Eye Color: Greenish Blue
Sexuality: Unknown
Clothing Preference: Loose but not too loose comfortable
Other Details: She is part of the survivors of the Purge when the town was taken over
Personality: She's serious when it comes to surviving but enjoys having fun whenever possible, she sees the light in any situation, good person
to have around
History: She is the daughter of an original survivor, her mother saw the Demons take the town, and witnessed the opening of the Portal
Favorite Color: Blue
Likes: killing Demons and Zombies
Dislikes: Demons and zombies
Talent: She is skilled with small blades
Weakness: Her temper

Names and What's missing...
Ok so I took a short "break" (or a block who knows...) but anyway I'm back and I've come up with a few different names for my main character:
Bryon
Colin
Kenneth
Kevin
Leon
Kyle
I'm not bothering with a last name for now because frankly i just don't think it's important yet. I'm hoping to get the beginning of the story done soon but i still have too many things to think about and organize. I've also thought that i should draw some kind of map for this town or else I'll probably get confused about where everything is...
So next up is a map!
Any suggestions on things I've missed before I start working on the beginning?
