Hey guys, Idea alert. I know everyone’s crazy busy and sometimes it’s hard to keep up with one plot let alone two, myself included. But I have an idea… A friend and I used to do this and I think it would be a great idea for us to try out. The idea is to randomise everything in a plot, no ego, no established characters. Every element of the plot is randomised. Plot, Character, Abilities, Setting, Enemies, Time Period. The whole shebang, it can be challenging, and push you outside your usual writing style and comfort zone. Each ‘element’ has 6 options, you roll the dice and see what happens  What do we think? - Dan |

Interesting! I did a similar thing recently for character creation with a friend, and we're having a ball trying to figure out what each other's characters are (the idea was to make a human-passing demihuman for a modern fantasy setting). Could be fun to try something like that here, too.  |

Yay!
Ok, so I'll set up the plot and depending what the outcome is, we'll randomise our characters.
Not sure if the options are very inspiring, but let's see what happens.
Let's roll the die!
RANDOM PLOT
Period
> Past
> Present
> Future
|jJldWRH1-3
Plot
> War
> Quest
> Survival
> Outcast
> Royal Intrigue
> Rebellion
1-6
Villain
> The Monarch
> Queen Mab
> Lucifer
> Warmonger
> ‘Boogie Man’
> Purist
1-6
Setting
> Tropical
> Winter
> Metropolis
> Underground
> Sky kingdom
> Ship
1-6
Ok, so this is our plot! Hopefully, it's not shit, part of the fun is the random nature of the plot and what we can put together based on wacky outcomes. IF it's shit and nobodies keen, we can try again with different options we can agree on.
Next up, I'll post the Character page.
1-3·1-6·1-6·1-6

OK.
So probably the most boring options of the lot, but it looks like our plot is a Wintery tale of Survival and our Big Bag is Queen Mab... We'll flesh that out later.
Next phase is Character, so the Character sheet is thus:
Sex
1-2
> M
> F
Race
1 - 9
> Human
> Elf
> Fae
> Centaur
> Drow
> Vampire
> Ent
> Angel
> Demon
Class/Profession
1-7
> Barbarian
> Druid
> Priest/Priestess
> Paladin
> Ranger
> Thief
> Assassin
Abilities
1-10
> Mage
> Psychic
> Alchemist
> Mind-Reader
> Telekinetic
> Super Intelligence
> Commune with the dead
> Astral Project
> Shadow walk (Moves through shadows)
> Builder (Mind for mechanics, can build most thing)

Can't do it via a 'quick reply'
copy and paste the categories such as :
Class/Profession
1-7
> Barbarian
> Druid
> Priest/Priestess
> Paladin
> Ranger
> Thief
> Assassin
Then hit the die symbol above, between the embed and spoiler symbol.
