Pango sounds absolutely crazy but I love him! I'll add the Dreadmill to the list of places in the Dust City. @Tortwag if you hae any problems with his description then go ahead. I imagined if he hungered for conflict he'd go and join in if comes across anything. Also, addressing everyone here for a moment, I'm on holiday right now so the wi-fi is slighty dodgy. I reckon I'll be writing the first post later this week if that's OK :D

@Terian805 I'd wager you could say that about most of the characters I create, but this one is... especially crazy XD

Thank you! Glad you like the idea. And enjoy your holiday, m'dear! Make sure you get yourself a badass rest to keep your creativity fresh before your first post, eh? I'll plan out mine in the meantime, since I'll be in a tough week starting next, well, week.

Hey @Terian805, I don't mean to be pressuring, but how's your post going?

OK first post up, sorry for the wait. It's kinda long but enjoyable hopefully! Now whoever would like to go next please do. Now a couple of pointers...

Try to make your post more introductory, make it sum up what your character is about.

If you can, try and keep it grounded. I want this Storybook to be absolutely crazy of course, but it needs to be linked to reality now, if you take my meaning.

It would be great if you could add threads for future conflicts in the Storybook.

Maybe you could make links to other characters if possible, like I tried to.

Don't rush ahead. We can discuss plot a bit later.

I have Monday and Tuesday off from school this upcoming week, so I could get up then or possibly sooner. Does anyone mind if I go next?

I don't mind if Sae goes next. It was a good post as well.

Great post, @saentiel! I'm looking forward to writing my own post sometime soon, hopefully.

Great post @saentiel. Now I'm adding various other NPCs to the story if anyone requires a someone to meet in their post. Jasmine however, is the girl that Finn was going to rescue, so keep that in mind. I reckon Finn is going to meet her later. Remember that you all are perfectly free to make up your own locations and NPCs!

Oh don't worry about that, m'dear, I'm sure we can improvise NPCs unless you tell us not too if they break the storyline or something, but still, thanks. I'll read those two posts this week, and shall start preparing mine.

Not calling dibs on the next one though, so, whoever is ready can go ahead!

Great! After all the references to Stella I'm looking forward to seeing her POV!

And I finished a good first quarter of mine. Good luck with your post, Lael!

Okay, it's posted! Notice how Stella doesn't exactly pay attention to/notice the 'dangers' of the Dust City. Also I didn't really intend to explore Stella missing her dad in this post, but I guess she led me there. :)
