Starting Template

Copy and paste this for new pages:

Page text here


Do you:
*[[Adventure/Option 1]]
*[[Adventure/Option 2]]
*[[Adventure/Option 3]]
{{Status|Equipment=''Equipment''|Health=#|MP=#|Level=#}}
[[Category: name of story you're working on]]

The next to the last line here is the status indicator. The status indicator shown here is the basic status indicator. Different stories use different status indicators, and some use none at all. Look at the edit screen for the page you're starting from and copy that status indicator to the new page you're adding. Modify as necessary.

To edit a page

Just click the edit tab on the top of the page

To add an option

[[Adventure name/New option name]]

Options that appear red on the page have no content. Click the link, paste in the above template, and then add your own content.

Tips

• To make it easier to add a page. Copy the text from the previous page into the current page
• Use images for equipment. It makes things more real. Do a google image search for small images and then add the url for the image in the equipment list. The image will show up when you save. Try to use the original image url and not the cached google image url.

Rules

People have a tendency to create branches where the character dies. To prevent the story from being just a tree with all dead ends:

• for each page where you kill the character, you must create at least 2 pages (with content) where he can go on.
• whenever you fill out the last option's page, add another one so the story can go another way.
• please stick to the theme and setting of the story. Although creativity is encouraged, radical plot changes and inconsistencies will ruin the flow.
• If something is off topic, remove it.
• Try to capitalize and spell your words correctly. We have a spell checker here, and the Firefox web browser has one built in.
• ADD OPTIONS AND NOT JUST TEXT!!!!

To Do List

• Go through and fix or remove status indicators from pages.
  • Some are not needed in stories and were copied and pasted from the template.
  • Some are missing the level and MP from the line of code.
• Remove off-topic pages.
• Correct capitalization and spelling mistakes.
• Add a basic, or main, timeline of background events during the period that the character is making choices in - those events are usually out of the character's control. This will help add consistency.
