Tips

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.
         o If something is off topic, remove it. 
   * Make a subpage of the original adventure page when adding an option, to save space.
