Re: OT:An Observation
I had a great list (I think I got it the starting list from a Dragon Magazine) for generating plots for DnD campaigns. It had a bunch of "madlib" style plots such as "A xxxxxx approaches you in a bar and asks if yyyyyy is yours" or "A xxxx approaches you to help save a yyyyy".
I built a random generator around it and had alot of fun. The second one might come up "a cleric approaches you about saving a town" or "a town approaches you about saving a cleric".
That first one came up Silver Dragon and dog. I turned it into "A Silver Dragon pokes its head into the bar and asks 'Is this someones dog?'. When you look you see he is holding out his foreleg and your dog is hanging from it growling and chewing. What do you do?"
Anyway, we had a lot of fun with that list. Everytime we heard an interesting plot-line we removed the nouns and put it in the file.
