For those who don't know, a textventure is an adventure in text. I will essentially describe everything that happens, and to progress, you simply say a course of action. Now, just because a suggestion is made, doesn't mean it'll occur. There has to be some level of sense to it, or it has to be outright hilarious enough to be worth warranting. There are a few rules to know, before starting though.
HOW TO SUGGEST:
Wanna post a suggestion for what happens or how to decide something? Just post a ">" beside it. That's it. If you wanna say something aside from the suggestion, just keep that symbol away from it. If you want to suggest and comment, just split the comment into the suggestion, add a space between, then comment. Any suggestions without the symbol will be outright ignored.
I CAN AND WILL MIX SUGGESTIONS:
I will often use several suggestions at my own discretion to either progress the story or create more interesting results. That means that generally, you won't get the limelight and have things go exactly as you want to. There is a chance of it, it's just not highly likely.
MAJORITY VOTES INCREASE LIKELINESS:
If several people all want a certain suggestion to go through, then all they have to do is quote it. The more times I see a specific suggestion, the more likely it is that I'll use that one in the story, as well as leave it unaltered. Multiple suggestions can get pushed through this way. Of course, as previously stated, I won't go for ridiculous or completely stupid suggestions, unless only to state how stupid they are and possibly belittle you.
I WILL RUN THIS ADVENTURE AS I SEE FIT:
Got a problem with how I run the adventure? I recommend you take it up with your ass, because it's the only one that gives a shit. I have complete and utter creative control over everything that happens. I decide how events play out, I decide surprises, I decide if you live or die. In short, I am God here, and I am a power hungry god. If you try to force me to do what you want, or pester me about something because you don't like it, then trust and believe I'll just completely and utterly ignore everything you post ever.
There is however, a God of God; one who transcends reality and strikes terror into the strongest of wills.
I believe Xero is my God, Lord, savior, messiah, and such other Holy titles that only he may bear.
Now to begin:
You wake up in a small chamber. A faint light filters in from a hole far, far above you. It appears you fell into a hole and knocked yourself out. Your memory is completely gone, and you feel the metallic taste of blood in your mouth. Your vision is shaky at the moment, but you can make out a reflective surface just to your right in the light. You look into it and see...
[Customization Stage]
This is where you build the character. The character can be as wacky as you want, as long as it is within limits. Suggestions for the main character must be as followed:
Name: Duh.
Gender: Double Duh.
Appearance: I don't really care. Make it bipedal, quadrupedal, a flyer, whatevs. The better the description, the better I like you.
Special Skill: This must either be a normal human skill, or a completely physical superpower. There is a good reason for this.
Basic Equipment: Something your character has with them. Can be nearly anything, but only one of it. If armor, only a single piece of armor.
Basic Weapon: Can't be enchanted, augmented, or anything like that. Pick a weapon, describe it if you want, put it down.
