This is my idea for the story. Hope you guys will go along with it. Going to create a setting in a moment. After that, I want each of us to work from the perspective of a character (of your own design), and even though we're all in the same story, we must show the differences in their perspectives. The story can go wherever we like, although I'd like the most important aspects to be:

a. Develop your character as the story progresses
b. It's a fantasy story. Feel free to use your imagination, but don't be ridiculous. (e.g. you're not allowed to have an all powerful, all knowing god who overcomes all obstacles at the snap of his / her fingers!)
c. We're the good guys. Of course you can have character flaws (in fact they're expected), but we are generally nice people ( / elves / dwarves / mythical beings / etc )

Um... I think that's about all I wanted to say. Oh, one more thing. If you feel it's time to start bringing in a change of scenery, be my guest, but just don't do it too often. I'm just creating a rough starting scene so long...

Ok, here goes!
