Choose Your Own Adventure is a wiki that contains stories where the reader assumes the role of the main character. In each page you chose how the story should progress. If you don't see an option that you would like to pursue, click the edit tab on the top of the page and add a new path to the page. Then you get to write in your own adventure for the hero.

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.
  • Make a subpage of the original adventure page when adding an option, to save space.

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.
