There are a number of Everlost specific terms that are used throughout the series that could easily be misused. This page is meant to create a standard for how they should be used that is based off of how they are used in the book. Feel free to add terms to this list and fix any incorrect instances on the wiki.

Disclaimer: Just because the entry for the term says it should not be capitalized, does not mean that proper English grammar should be disregarded. If a sentence starts with "Skinjacker" it should be capitalized, even though it is not a proper noun. If a sentence starts with a hyphenated term like "dead-spot", only the first letter should be capitalized (Dead-spot NOT Dead-Spot).
