Hush
Can you hear my heartbeat? It pulses deep under blackest soil, violent and electric. There coiled and sleeping ‘neath twisted roots, I dream my vilest dreams for you. Will you unearth me? Do you so dare?
They once called me mother.
Watch your step.
Narrator’s notes:
I don’t have a ton of gaming experience, but I love to write. This is my very first attempt at narrating in Storium. (Nerves!)
I’m a visual artist by trade. I think in pictures. I like to write this way as well. I’m looking for writers who want to challenge themselves to write more descriptively and get to the core of their character as well as those of their fellow players; dig it up and pitch it around. Make your descriptions juicy! Dark secrets are definitely encouraged.
I don’t know everything about Shivermire yet. It’s my ambition that she should develop viscerally, as though she’s my own character contribution. She is after all, seemingly alive.
Chosen characters will be “called” by an irresistible force to a meeting place and go forth from there. The rest is a mystery which I hope will begin unraveling once I know a bit about the characters and they begin knowing each other!
There will be horrifying creatures to fight, demons to face, and dire circumstances to navigate. Emotions raging everywhere. Things could get messy.
I hope to foster a diplomatic and respectful environment in the comments where players will feel comfortable both giving and receiving constructive criticism, encouraging one another, and tossing around ideas. I’m all about process.
I increased the maximum word count for players to 600 to encourage a painterly approach.
