Google Docs novel/short story

[Azmodan412]

None of you know this, but I am actually writing a fantasy novel/short story via Google Docs. If you would like to read what I have so far, link will be below and if you are interested in submitting a character, go ahead and I will see what I can do. I will be updating it infrequently, but it IS a WIP.

Edit 1: I will review each character submission, but be creative. Anything from a Minotaur magus to a morally ambiguous cleric/paladin is accepted. That means you get to try your hand at making a no-so-good hero.

Edit 2: Commenting link.

We need to have a staff-hosted competition to see who makes the story interesting and meets the conditions and yadadada. Be the judges. Prize? Essentially nothing, everyone contributes and enjoys themselves with reading a piece of a fan literature. Prizes aren't everything.

Not supposed to be a competition. Just something that everyone can contribute to and enjoy reading. I am honestly not going to expect ANY sort of prize for doing what I want to do.

It was a suggestion to boost morale.

I would believe having people's ideas and suggestions implemented would be good for morale AND forward what little plot I have set up.

Part time. I don't want to write to live, but it would be a hobby.

Okay, as it has been over two weeks, bump. Also, if you wish to submit a character, feel free to post in this thread or send me a private message with the following:

1) Name
2) Race
3) General Specialization: Mage/Warrior/Rogue
4) Specialty: Say you create a mage, as a specialty, you could pick pyromancy or clerical magics as examples.
5) Combat style
6) Question answering

Number six has to do with alignment, so here we go. Please answer how your character would respond, not how you would respond.

Alignment question #1: You come across a merchant beset by bandits. The merchant is richly dressed and there are only four bandits there. Do you: A) Help the merchant, B) Do nothing and watch how it plays out, or C) Aid the bandits.

Alignment Question #2: You see someone stealing from a temple dedicated to some god or goddess. Do you: A) Take it upon yourself to capture the thief nonlethally, B) Report it to the local authorities, or C) Cut the thief down where he stands.

Character style Question #1 if you pick 1A: Do you do whatever it takes to uphold justice, merely observe and act accordingly to the situation, or do whatever it takes to serve the greater good?

Character style Question #2 if you pick 1B: Do you observe and follow the laws and customs of the area you are in, do absolutely nothing but observe and comment (Like the CL), or do you do whatever the hell you want with no regards to anyone else?

Character style Question #3 if you pick 1C: Do you have a liegelord whose orders you will follow to the letter no matter how unsavory, work to preserve the balance between good and evil through somewhat nefarious means, or do whatever you want that benefits you?

1) Ogdru Jahad
2) Reptilian
3) Necromancer
4) Commanding the dead to fight
5) Bojutsu (martian arts with a staff)

Alignment question 1: A: Help the merchant

Alignment question 2: A: Non lethally unarm and capture the thief

Character style Question 1: Do what I perceive helps the greater good

So a staff-using lizardman necromancer, alignment being lawful good.

Interesting. Raised in a Lawful Evil society and transitioned to Lawful Good somehow.

Well yeah I could make a backstory or something, that'd take a bit though =/

Sorry, the 'Do whatever it takes' is chaotic. My mistake.

If you wish to make one, make one.
