So you're a role player...but are you a writer prodigy? We're going to have a fun little game. Well, those who want to join in. I notice a lot of people are writing stories. Well, I want them to write a special story. I want you guys to try your hands at besting all other role players and making the a short story to boggle the mind and bewilder the senses.
Since if this were a free competition, it would be more difficult for people to vote on their favorite story if they liked the genre of only one. Because everybody here is role playing wolves, this will be a sort of "fan fiction" thing. You're going to write a wolf story having at least one character on this site in it...even if only for a moment. They could be a random side character, if you like. Use your imagination.
To make things really fun, I'm going to put up some themes. If you want to play, could you please pick a theme? Make sure you include it in your story somehow. These themes will help you make sure that your tale is interesting.
Yeah, I guess some people won't like this because of those two little guidelines. But you don't have to join. However, if you do, just know it's a free for all! You can be as graphic and as horrifying as you want!
After all, some writers need to be violent to be at their best.
Okay. Here are the themes. Only one person can have a theme. Because I'm sort of hosting the competition, I won't be joining in. That would be unfair. So, all I want you to do is post which theme you want and I'll cross it off the list and put your name next to it. Post your short story and make sure that signal it's going to be part of the competition. Otherwise, it won't count. Kay? Once I think we'll have all the people we can get, I'll make a poll and people will vote on their favorite.
Sounds fun, yes?
The Theme List
1 - Darkness
2 - Greed
3 - Emptiness
4 - Outcast
5 - Deception
6 - Rage
7 - Nightmare
8 -Love Lost [Phantom]
9 - Cold
10 -Death [Battie]
11 - Insanity
12 - Monster
13 - Snow
14 - Laughter
15 - Time
16 - Alone
17 -Blood [Adria]

If we run out of themes (which I doubt) people can make suggestions. But I ask that you not use your own suggestion and that you try to use up these twenty before you try something new.
If this competition works, then I might make another one and we'll use new themes!
Once at least ten themes are used and everyone has posted their stories, we'll start the judging. Themes that aren't used will be used again in the next one (if this happens to be popular enough. o.o I hope so.)
