Character's lives are about to go in a new direction. |
There comes a time in many people's lives that they are without direction, when this happens they may stumble into The Crossroads. The Crossroads is a place outside of space and time, as the name suggests you find yourself at the intersection of many paths, walking down one of these paths will return you to the world, but it comes with a price; over the weeks following your return, you will undergo a transformation of some kind; a brainac could become a bimbo, you could grow fatter or thinner, stronger or weaker, older or skinnier, taller of shorter, you could change gender or race, you could go from hero to villain or vice versa, your very personality could be rewritten, you could even be transformed into an animal, or even something even stranger. The world may adjust, your changing body and life going unnoticed to any save for yourself, or it may not, with all seeing the change as you do. When you arrive at the Crossroads, you will be greeted by the guide a spirit who will lay out your paths, telling you where each path leads, and even what transformation you will undergo once you have chosen a path, however once you walk down a path, you will forget ever coming to The Crossroads, so while we, the reader may know what is to become of you, you, the character whom we observe, will not. Rules There are only a few rules to how a story must pan out once you have begun. As with all my stories, we will introduce the genre's then the franchises, then the characters (except original stories and celebrities, which skip franchise and go straight on to the characters) within each character, start with just Character Start Options, For instance: under the chapter labeled Arya Stark, the options would be Arya Stark Start-1 Arya Stark Start-2 More Arya Stark Starts. (which would repeat the above) It is in these options that authors can then choose where in the character's arc we are, and establish their arrival at the Crossroads. The reason for this is the next rule; once the roads the character can walk down are lain out, you cannot add more, so if you wish to add different options, start a new storyline for the character. If you have particular ideas in mind when you start a new launcher chapter (what we will call the above) and intend to launch those chapters yourself, you can add a description to the chapter text, to lay out when in their journey you will meet your protagonist. The next rule, the Crossroads can only take a character somewhere in their world, going back to Arya, she could end up North of the Wall, on the streets of King's Landing or wandering the Great Grass Sea but she couldn't end up in Bristol, or Naboo. Similarly Hermione Granger could end up in Azkaban, Diagon Alley or Los Angeles but not Coruscant or Winterfell. Other than that, the stories cannot feature sexual content involving anyone under the age of 18, as I have suggested in other stories, if you want a character like Arya or Hermione at any point prior to the end of their respective stories, then delve into AU, where the story occurs later into the lives of the characters. Further, The Crossroads is meant to change the lives of those who walk through them, not end them, while Death is allowed for other characters (certainly for instance if the path chosen is to become an assassin or a beast, they are likely to deal in death) do not kill the protagonist, nor should you focus too much on blood and gore. Finally, as always, no toilet stuff, that's just gross. |
