The Home (Site-Wide Story - Trial #1)

@ Audrey T
I don't mind either way :)

Chapter 4 is up! (The RP was split into 3 chapters - so there's still two more to go up.)

Can everyone double check to make sure they've been appropriately credited in the author's note of chapter 4, please? Also, does anyone remember who did the layout for the story? And can you double check to make sure you're listed as an author on the story?

Whenever I write my chapter, I'd like to introduce Mabuz. Tahmoh can be introduced through a group meeting or in someone else's chapter if they want.

@ champion;
Chapters? We'll write chapters as well? If that's true, I think it's cool.

When we originally talked about individual chapters, the first few were going to be where characters introduced their background story. I think we talked about it happening kind of as individual therapy sessions.

I think we could also work them into the stories as individuals going off in the Home on their own and then just doing their own thing. People can even do individual chapters with like another character if they're having private convos/checking in on each, whatever.

@ Audrey T
Right! I like that idea. Mabuz and Alex are gonna hit it off haha

@ Audrey T
It's great!!

@ Audrey T
Oh hey I volunteered to edit back when this started and if you need another editor I'd be more than willing to do it again. (:

I was thinking that we need a sort of a map to know where every residents room is and what each room has. It will be easier that way for our individual chapters. And we'll have to go with the basics we have already described in the story. What do you think?

Also, are we ready for getting started on the next part?

@ Lady.V.
I'm ready when everyone is :)

@ Audrey T
I made the layout!

Gotcha!

That would definitely help. Maybe everyone can come up with a little map/image of their room?

This is how I imagined the house to be:

Top Floor
Main Floor
Basement

@ Audrey T
Can there be a little nook above the house where Alex (and eventually Mabuz) stays?

I imagine elves like a lot of sunlight, so they'd want to be as close to the top as possible

@ champion;

Since characters come and go, why not add two more floors? They can be vacant at the moment but that could help since the characters that are leaving the place are dead, sick, asked to go back home, can't handle the home and what not.

@ Lady.V.
Great idea!

Since it's just a group home (and not like a hotel or a bigger facility), I don't think we can be able to accommodate too many people at one time. If we do two levels of 6 bedrooms, the basement with 4 bedrooms, and a smaller attic-type floor with 2 bedrooms would that be enough? That would be room for 18 people - and as people come and go (leave or die) their rooms would become vacant again for new boarders. How's that sound?

How's this look for the layout of the house? The rooms would come with basic furniture and then the residents could customize as they see fit.

Chapter 7 just went up. It's the last of what we've got written so far.

I'm ready to go too.

Where do y'all want to go with the next part of the RP?

@ Audrey T
I think the number of floors is highly dependent on how many characters we have... which isn't a lot. Unless more people sign up I think we could probably remove the third floor and make it a total of four floors altogether (base, main, first and attic).

@ Audrey T
Perhaps we should get a few character chapters in? We could rp some of the one-on-one sessions? Like your posts for Abby could have sections for each character she would be talking to

I like four floors too, but I know Lady V. was concerned about space. Maybe we can do a final vote on it once everyone chimes in.

I'm definitely up for one-on-ones.

@ Audrey T
Is Abby gonna have questions for our characters?
