New posting game! (submit a title)

Have any of y'all read Ruby Quest or Homestuck? This game follows that format. Basically, y'all input commands that the character should follow. I choose the one I like the most and continue the story accordingly!

example:

Your name is JAMIE BRAVECHILD. You hate your SURNAME, since you are anything but. You are on a BOAT, carried along by your father to find the LOST TREASURE OF MILONIAGH. You find this AWFULLY CLICHÉ, and are especially resentful of the fact that you can't pronounce MILONIAGH right anyway. Behind you are a couple of SHELVES, on which there are miscellaneous HEREDITARY KEEPSAKES. One day you will own them all.

>examine HEREDITARY KEEPSAKES

>check your TRUSTY MAP

>examine HEREDITARY KEEPSAKES
On the top shelf are several THICK REFERENCE BOOKS, written in the ANCIENT TONGUE OF DHJHJDGH, which many have said reminds them of KEYBOARD SMASHING. Your father has always been trying to convince you to learn it, but you have an INTERPRETER, JSKLENGDH, (JSK for short), that could possibly provide a translation. However, he is a little SCARY, and you'd rather not ask him right now.
On the bottom shelf, there is a locked FAUX SNAKE EGG, sitting on a MAHOGANY PERCH which probably possesses SUBSTANTIAL MAGICAL ABILITY OF AN UNDEFINED TYPE. Nobody has been able to open it thus far. There is also YOUR TRUSTY MAP, which is not a HEREDITARY KEEPSAKE but lays on the shelf for safekeeping anyway. On top of YOUR TRUSTY MAP, there are the WINGED STILETTOS, which could grant you THE ABILITY TO FLY UPSIDE-DOWN. There are also THE ROPES OF LIFE. You will learn their VARIED SECRETS once you come of age.

>check your TRUSTY MAP

This is YOUR TRUSTY MAP. You mark your CURRENT LOCATION in red ink, a self-defeating mechanism, since you've been to so many places that now the map looks rather POCKMARKED, like an ACNE-RIDDEN TEENAGER. And you also have NO IDEA WHERE YOU ARE.

>yell at bothersome ship mates

>find your interpreter and make out with him

>immediatly apologize

>Go on deck and figure out where you are.

You run up to the DECK, pushing aside some of your TRUSTED SHIPMATES. Well, that's the SKY. And that's the SEA. And that's a MOVING MASS OF FOG. You can find those anywhere nowadays.

Yep, you have NO IDEA WHERE YOU ARE.

((Sorry! I don't think you're getting it. You don't write responses based on what the previous person posted, you write them based on what I draw. So Jamie hasn't yelled at her shipmates or made out with anyone until I write their request in bold.))

Ohh okay, I get it. Sorry about that

>Jump in SEA.

>Considering that you have no clue where you are, you get one of the thick reference books and throw it in the ocean as an act of frustration-though throwing that book feels like throwing a desk.

>Try to guess what's behind the GIANT MASS OF FOG.

>Ask bothersome shipmate where the heck you are.

There are four BOTHERSOME SHIPMATES on this deck: NAVIGATOR SILVA, INTERPRETER JSK, YOUR FATHER, and THE SILK MAIDEN.
You don't have a high enough INTELLECT to understand NAVIGATOR SILVA, you don't have nearly enough BRAVERY to approach INTERPRETER JSK, and you cannot see YOUR FATHER before having COME OF AGE. Having eliminated all other options, you approach THE SILK MAIDEN.

You ask THE SILK MAIDEN where you are. She claims she doesn't know, and why don't you ask NAVIGATOR SILVA.

You suddenly realise you are A PATHETIC WASTE OF SPACE.

>Jump in SEA.

What?! Are you kidding?! The BRAVERY required for such a feat is astronomical, borderline ridiculous! Not even YOUR FATHER would be capable of doing that!

>Get BRAVERY.

> Think about the age of the interpreter

> Think about the age of the interpreter
The interpreter is 20 years old, five years older than you are.

>Get BRAVERY
Bravery will be awarded automatically when something courageous is done.

>You decided to do something courageous. But not too dangerous. Something like sword fighting.

>Watch the waves in the sea

>Watch the waves in the sea

The WAVES crash against the side of THE SHIP with a lulling rhythm. They are blue-green, with the sun shining so brightly. THE SHIP is far from shore.
There is SOMETHING is the water.

>look closely.

>Fish it out.

>Fish it out.
You run to YOUR FATHER'S STUDY and get your HEAVY FISHING POLE. It starts to grow grey outside. THE BOAT must be passing through FOG.


You start to FREAK OUT a little. Who knows what this thing might be? It seems stationary in the water, not floating or sinking. That's freaky.
>You decided to do something courageous. But not too dangerous. Something like sword fighting.

Or LARGE ROUND OBJECT FISHING.
Despite the fact that the LARGE ROUND OBJECT did not sink, it is still fairly HEAVY. But you are a STRONG GIRL.

(+2 BRAVERY points. LARGE ROUND OBJECT has been added to the inventory)
