What is a
What is a beginning of a story?
The first of a series of events, setting up a change that a character goes through.
What is a story?
A place for the artist to build their creativity -- a world and setting and person to color, something to tell to the audience.
I would really rather not spend our precious time thinking about the true meaning of fiction itself. Nothing is quite so black and white. Instead, I invite you to come to this Ski Lodge to explore the worlds and characters you love.

You are in a roped-off area with several other children your age, all of which are nervously holding their collective breath. As an over-the-top, bubbly lady clutches a paper in her stiff, pale hand you hope for dear life that the name it reads is not your own.
You are sharing riding across a glassy river with several other first-years, a few on each boat. You are all very nervous to begin this new chapter in your life, but never the the less, excited, as the purple castle looms over you, beckoning you.
Your heart is pounding as you dash towards the hill which promised safety, the one with the pine tree. You are running blindly away from the monster as your best friend instructed you, but you have no idea what it is or how your friend could possibly know.

Hello. I am The Fictionalist.
I am the personification of the human’s imagination, and all of the stories it creates. A writer, no matter the medium used to express their story, is simply the fingerprint with which a story’s painting is painted.
This will not be spoiler-heavy but it will probably contain several minor spoilers. If you hate spoilers this might not be the Ski Lodge for you. Also, it might be a while until the first part comes out because I want to have the forms with me as I plan, especially because of Camp NaNoWriMo.
Form: (CBers only -- I will accept around ten people, maybe a few more)

Fandoms/characters/places/etc. You want to see featured*:
*Even if it does not have a fandom, feel free to list it anyways! List as many as you want as there is no guarantee that I will know any of them. Oh, and no music fandoms -- only fictional things.
If one creates a story, what is to say that it is not real, if not in body but in mind?

Hello! I will accept 2-6 or so more people. Then, new sign-ups will be closed.
I expected sign-ups to go a bit faster than they have been going (mostly comparing it to last time). I have finished an outline of the entire thing but I need to wait for more people to join before I can assign roles/tailor it to y'all so that is holding me up a bit on starting. (Which isn't great because I am doing Camp NaNo.) So I really hope that you will join!
@LG, I am still a bit confused because your sheet seems to be identical to that of your OC's except in name -- would you mnd just clearing that up a bit? Thanks. :)

As the name suggests, there are two more open slots for CBers. I will wait for those to fill up and then they will be closed.
I may or may not have forgotten to include a "luggage" section on the sheet. Heh. So, if you wouldn't mind, please include a list of the luggage you would like to bring, and I will incoporate it in. Thanks!

Hey!
Just so you know, this IS stll going on. Because of NaNo I am currently just trying to write a lot so the first part might not come out for a bit.
On a partially-related note: please, more requests for characters to include are always welcome! Don't ever feel like you are suggesting too many because I could always use more reuqests. Most of your requests I probably won't know -- sorry about that, I'm just one person so I can only really draw on what I know.
