I for one love reading the stories on these forums and else where. But what i personally love to see is not stories being written out but stories being played out in game.
The Keepers have been toying for some time with something that can be best described as a server wide story arc. This is not an easy task when you have only 3 people working on it. We have gotten ideas, thrown them out and then re-written them and finally we came up with a brilliant idea.
Why not just ask other guilds if they would be interested in something like this. Ie. Why not ask other guilds to help build the outline - the plot and storyline and then let the end be open to all.
We have a simple working method on this. Staged events and open events. Something that can be worked on to drive the story forward but allow everybody the flexibility to throw a wrench into the works.
Additionally what we in the Keepers want to do is not have a single objective for all. Rather each guild has its own unique background and story - so why not have different goals for each guild. The goals of Sanctuary will be very different from those of IFR or the Swordwaltzers. The Keepers and the Grim would have divergent objectives etc.
The basic idea for now is to get a group of people/guilds interested. Establish a plot line and then let RP take its course.
The question is though who wants in and what will our story be.
***Note: This is not going to be easy but i bet it will be fun.
