In the tradition of Consequences, the object of this game is to produce a group story in the Victorian style. A moderator will start the story, and members then take turns to contribute the next 1-3 sentences.

RULES

- each contribution can be a maximum of 3 sentences but sentences can be of any length.
- each contribution should attempt to flow from the previous ones, although don't feel that a new event has to happen in every post. Description and character-building are as important as plot!
- try to wait for at least two other people to post before making a further contribution.
- anyone can create new characters; however, if you want to kill someone off in the novel, it must be your own character and not somebody else's.
- in the highly unlikely event that we produce something remotely publishable..... The work as a whole, or other members' contributions, may not be published anywhere but within the Victorians! group, except with the permission of the Victorians! Moderators, who will decide how to fairly attribute authorship, rights and profit.
