Inertiae

Inertiae are the name of the fictional species created by Roskaa123 featured in the Jovial Playground/Dream World games. All of the characters featured are part of the species Inertia. 
== Creating an Inertia ==
Quoting directly from Roskaa123, "You become Inertia when your DNA/brain forgets what you were and starts coming up with things." This process completely changes their bodies, impacted by the person's memories. It is confirmed to be a painful process that varies from person to person, so much that it can kill a person. Memories are also affected, being erased with exception of key life events such as trauma, certain people, or events. Most Inertiae were assumed to be human at some point, the transformation directly related to being present in Dream World or Jovial Playground. The one known exception to this rule is the character Jov, who was proven to be born with the Playground itself for unknown reason.
Another kind of inertia, once again quoting from Roskaa123, is "a pile with a bunch of inertias in one. When transforming, things can go wrong which completely demolishes and melts your whole body. you also lose the sense of yourself and surroundings and the control of your body. this is very rare and its more common to get a finished, succeeded form. The pain is so bad that it prevents you from dying (from the pain) meaning you have to be in that form until starvation or other ways take you out of your suffering. The reason why they're in a pile/one form is because the mistake inertias is that it they attract each other and they seek other forms. The big pile stays still but any failed forms outside of that pile will always seek the pile and make their way towards it. Normal inertias can also feel attraction towards it, but it's not that strong and they most likely don't want to join the pile."
