Heres the scenario. Somewhere in America, a mushroom cloud begins to rise majestically over what was a city a short time ago. As the super-heated plasma rises, a lone figure sits on a grassy hill a good 15 miles away, nonchantly watching the blast. The figure is chewing something and leans against a small backpack.
Other figures, stick-small at first begin to climb the hill to see the destruction. As the closest one draws near, the figure atop the hill smiles and offers something. A wrapped bar of chocolate. Okay. This is the story. Whoever joins in, you start by ariving on top of this hill, and begin telling your story to the group. Its set in our universe... no time-traveling, magic, kit-moding, whatever. Being generous.. this is five years in the future. Whatever has happened, has resulted in this as yet un-named city being nuked. What is written shapes the story, and subsiquent posters must run with it. Try to keep it real, as I said. The nuke was not Kitsune lighting a fart or something lame like that. (Also, its a huge explosion.. say.. 100Mt, so not a terrorist suitcase nuke or dirty bomb. Not saying it can't be a terrorist bomb.. but the warhead would be BIG)
But, anyway.. run wild. First person to post is that person on the hill with a backpack of chocolate. As new people post, they have just arrived, and are presented with their own block of chocolate. The hill itself is clear of nukeage (for now?) and the flash-blind raduis, but if your character is irradiated or blinded, feel free. Anyway, *something* has happened. Its a
blank page, people, crayon in a story.
