Giving this one a try - Free Range Rexxie
This is still a lot of fun, I love the chance you have given us to practice our story writing especially since I am rather new to writing, I have been having fun with the stories. the cards and the game are great prompts. Here is my entry:
"Arturio Rexxie"
Hi guys. Just wondering where can I check the plot so far. I'd really like to read about the characters so far and the universe as well
Hi! :D The document to which I believe you are referring is still being created. There is a team of talented writers on the task. Bits and pieces are currently available, but...
The whole world is coming soon! And it's going to be amazing. Follow @carrieallen to stay up on current lore-related matters. And here's a Sneak Peak of the Green Splinter, written by me :)

do you have a scary story to tell.
tell now.
hey guys,
you have a copy&paste mistake in your text under "Story Format Rules For Submission". There's still the pirate captain named, but I think it should be Rexxie :) Confused me a little bit.
