The Random Story of Whatever (Anything-Goes RP)

The Random Story of Whatever

An Experiment in Improvisational Role-Playing
this should be interesting
Some of you on the forums may remember two old forum games: The Reverse Thread and The Never-Ending Story. These were two forum games based around telling a story, with the main gimmick being that it was completely made up as it went along. Wherever the story went was random and could not easily be predicted.

What I am proposing is a similar thing, only in RP form. Anyone is free to play, you can drop in and out at any time. And as I said: anything goes. I'll provide the opening scenario, but the direction the story takes I'll leave up to you guys. However, there is ONE rule I am enforcing:

The Golden Rule: Be reasonable - no god-modding. Don't go over-the-top with what you do with the story or your characters. If the story currently involves a quest to retrieve a pan, don't decide to turn it into a murder-mystery instead. Likewise, don't turn your character into .a complete Mary Sue who can win everything instantly. Everything is fun in moderation, so don't ruin it for everyone else.

You're welcome to partake in the story as soon as you apply. I won't be too involved in this - I'm leaving it up to you guys to sort everything out yourselves, but if it comes to it, my word is law.

Our story begins like any other...the world of Azethos, a reasonably peaceful planet not too-dissimilar from Earth. In the city of Wufheif...
