It's been a few years since I started this piece, and I gotta say, I'm quite happy with some of the paths people have taken it through. I would like to take a moment to mention a few things;
1) Anyone can add to this and I encourage people to live out their fantasy through this series provided they have a plausible buildup. Options are also key: please avoid no-win scenarios, but also have those going through these scenarios think through them properly, mistakes will lead to fun stuff. Heck, if you can't make a decision on certain things succeeding or not, give an online dice-roller a shot, maybe it'll roll high, average, or low.
2) Please bare in mind continuity and realism. Yes, the concept of realism is debatable in a high fantasy setting like D&D Forgotten Realms, but that does not mean you can toss respect for legitimate physics, psychology and so on out the window. If you see a page describing the gold armor you were wearing as mithril all of a sudden, correct it appropriately. If you see spelling or grammar errors, feel free to fix them.
3) Consider the canon: Elves only grow hair on their scalp and eyebrows, Dragons typically need to shape-shift into what they're mating with to mate with them (though they tend to have rather long tongues, so maybe that's not their first action (dragons are the most sexually active race ever, seriously)) and gnomes have the most potential for chaos and fun ever. You don't have to stress like crazy about whether you know the canon or not, but if you do, please bare it in mind.
In any event, browse, add, edit, have fun, and enjoy.
I know I am.
Happy gaming!
