((I told you not to do this.))

[Empiricist]

((The original consists of people screaming suggestions of cannibalism into people's heads so this is an improvement of sorts. The lack of any activity is NOT caused by adding rules, granted, the rules didn't do shit, but it didn't upset the formula as you said it would.))

((I will point out that the people doing that aren't actually playing.))

[Empiricist]

((Allow me to hypothesize the original's downfall. It is not due to plot or regulation, but simply the loss of an imperative to act. Once people form couples, resolve their issues, stop getting confused and exchange stories of their world, you have nothing. The interactions lose fuel. Hence, this is a step in the right direction, it is now more plot compatible, the issue is, there is no plot at present, no setting, no initial imperative to act.))

((And it isn't the point of the original thread. I mean, if I wanted to play Kyle I would go back to RotMG instead of playing this. There's no hooks here.))

[Empiricist]

((And it isn't the point of the original thread.))

((Which is precisely why it failed. It doesn't have to be complex, nor compelling, something simple as enemies appearing or starting in a generic dungeon is fine, what is important is an objective, one that may be succeeded by another upon completion.))

((I can't post long posts as I'm on my phone... :c))

Lizzie exists.

Annabelle is on an airship(?), because steampunk person.
If @Elf permits, this will allow other players to have somewhere to interact until he's able to describe the area.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Everyone....wakes up. An airship is floating over head.

To the east, there is...a strangely familiar city. To the west, a forest. To the north, plains and to the south, more plains.

Go crazy. Define what you want to define.

[Projeck37]

Annabelle calls out to her crew.
"Bring 'er in for a landing!"

"Aye, aye!"
A collective cheer.

[Vgray]

Tasrak quickly gets up and draws his sword.

[Projeck37]

The airship floats 50 feet above the ground, and a rope is sent over the side. Annabelle slides down the rope, holding on with one hand.

[Vgray]

Tasrak looks up at the airship.

"Is that some form of zeppelin?"
