one last question... hopefully.

Is this gonna be some kind of end-of-the-world thing? is it meant to be? IK we have no plot, so are we just gonna go with it?

I suspect that the third world war would be the last.

Edit: I am working on my story as we speak. I have designated a Dossier for my character to give some background info. That way, if anyone else refers to him, they will know what he is like.

Ok, I really thought I made this abundantly clear but I'll say it one more time so there's no hurt feelings later on down the line. We will not each get our "own" character, and it would be a shame for each of us to do nothing but fragmented individual stories. Spy is making a new character now, but it won't be "his" character, just as Ramstein isn't "my" character. Anybody is free to continue any of their story arcs or combine story arcs unless the guidelines specifically say not to.

I'd like to have 2 main protagonist and 1 main villain through most of the book, with a healthy number of supporting characters. I won't complain if someone creates another and does it well, but I'm not going to let everyone make his own main character, or stick with writing about just one character.

Yes, you did make it clear. I thought my posts were consistent with your plan. I outlined that individual characters could slowly fit their way into the story, but (like you said) not all at once. Key characters (like you said) would be introduced from the start, and minor characters could be added over time. In short, I agree with you and my feelings are not hurt at all. I am sorry for going off on a tangent with Warrior Monk, but I agree with what you are saying.

I noticed that you didn't give the year... what should it be?

If someone wants to set a date that makes sense then go ahead, but I'm still waiting for my flying cars and mars colonies if you know what I mean

Spy is it all right if I draft Chris into my elite sniper team?

He is an Ex-Sniper. He could be a trainer, but keep in mind that he is a hermit at heart.

Well he could become a sniper again like.......

I looked down the line of my team of elite snipers to see Chris (last name) at the very end he had been one of out tougher men to crack. It had taken 5 times the amount of pay that we had normally offered him to join. We had heard about his successful sniper/assassination carrier from our sources. It was the assassination Senator Maverick which we had heard some rumors of who had done that little job that finally gave us the final push to recruit Chris.

Do not trust Chris. Look at his dossier and think of how he would fit into a government program. He is not the type to venture outdoors, just to train government officials.

We are allowed to enter minor villians though right? The scum of the planet?

In due time. That is sort of what Chris is, but he is a bounty hunter.

Thank you. I could have worked on it a little longer last night, but I got tired. I thought it would be neat if everyone could submit dossiers of their characters, even if it is not a part of the story. That way, people can get a sense of who they are dealing with.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #63 on:** May 20, 2008, 03:01:40 PM »

RR's turn now. You'll have until the end of Thursday.

Guidelines:
Introduce the villain. If you want to do an anti-hero instead you may want to save that for later.

We HAVE to follow it completely. Otherwise the story will get out of control and un-readable.

Here. PM me your thoughts please.

RR, I have left some space in my portion of the story for you, if you would like to pick up the storyline from the perspective of Chris' client in the trenchcoat.
