Lost Cause

Lost Causes are Freaks who have been declared by Katie to be "irredeemable" due to sufficiently and persistently bad behaviour in The Underground. Being declared a lost cause is a grave, official and public decleration. Anyone declared to be a lost cause begins to be largely shunned by the Cloud Nine and stigmatized by The Underground community. In addition, The Protectorate and Katie does not invest any energy into the betterment of Lost Causes, essentially meaning that anyone who is declared as such is abandoned and left to their own devices.

Being declared a Lost Cause holds a lot of weight to Freaks, and many of them will do anything in order to not be declared such. Many Freaks who have been declared to be a Lost Cause have either attempted suicide, suffered greatly, or became even worse. However, there have been rare instances where they worked hard to turn their life around such as Grumps.

Some examples of Lost Causes are: Fairy Powderdust, Vanity and Nightmare.
