[Closed] Deciding the Short Story Prompt for December 2024
Added 2024-12-04 09:10:22 +0000 UTCBelow are the full prompts as the poll doesn't allow the full text. In the case of ties the first option that got there wins. The short story will be finished by the end of the month.
There weren't many prompts this time so I've added two of my own that I've suggested before.
Extinct Civilization's System - The System, created by a now extinct civilization, arrives on earth. Well, not earth exactly, but the solar system as a whole. The only problem is the arrival message [Apocalypse System Loading. Welcome . In 49 hours and 20 minutes, monsters will appear. No memory of technology detect, no restrictions applied. Good Luck]. Then right on the dot, a dragon is filmed suffocating by a rover. And on Earth? Nothing.
Immortal No-One - I swore my life to a god, bargained my soul to a devil, traded my name to a fae and sold my memories to an Eldritch. I should be dead but now nothing remains for death to collect and I just am, without a name, soul life or even memories. I do not know who or what I am, but I am and for some reason I can not not be.
Grocery Store Disappearances - I've put this one up a few times. Anyway, If you've ever heard of the Tales from the Loop RPG, this was originally an idea for a scenario for it. Basically kids are going missing in local grocery stores and now a kid and their group of friends need to figure out what is going on because their sibling has vanished in the local grocery store, the anomaly is going to move soon, and of course the parents don't believe you.
Liar's Dice - A story from a world that works in the same way YuGiOh works (IE everyone plays and everything can be decided by a game) except it runs on Liars Dice
