Just like the books.
Example:
Person #1 Says...
You enter a dark forest. Which way do you go?
Go left--Page 12 Go Right---Page 5715
Person #2 Says...
You decide to go left. You end up being shot dead.:sad:
Etc.
The point is to make up a random adventure.
And btw.
You can pick any page number :P
I will start.
You notice a dark forest at the end of the road. Do you go left, right, or talk to the mentally retarded owl sitting in a tree between the two directions?
Go Left--Page 2--Mentally Retarded Owl--Page 5--Go Right--Page 6

I'm kinda confused on what is supposed to be done :(
so does the person pick which page and then decides what will happen from there??

You talk to the mentally retarded owl who tells you to give him some mice in exchange for a map. Do you:
Look for some mice (Page 8), Frisk the owl for the map (Page 19), Go left (Page 2) or Go right (Page 6)?

Page 19:
You approach the owl and give it a quick frisk. You are unable to find a map but do find a mysterious silver box tucked under his left wing. You:
Keep trying to find the map (page 77), Take the box and run (113)
Capt_Sparrow
16-07-2008, 11:54 PM
Page 113:
You take the box (which is locked) and run, but in your haste, forgot which direction you took. Do you:
Go back to the owl for directions (Page 2), Look for a key (Page 55) or Smash the box on the ever-so-conveniently placed rock next to you (Page 114)?
Casta_Diva
16-07-2008, 11:58 PM
Page 114:
You look over at the ever-so-conveniently-placed rock next to you, and decide to smash open the silver box. Unfortunately, it is made of seemingly impenetrable (is that a word?) metal and you must find some sort of smithy to help you get into it. You look around and see a sign which posts nearby towns. You look at the town with the closest distance, "Owl's Nest" Do you:
Look down the list for the second closest town (Page 3), Keep trying to smash the box open (Page 35), or Make your way toward "Owl's Nest" (Page 82)
Capt_Sparrow
17-07-2008, 12:37 AM
Page 35:
Being a bit mad, you try the same thing again and expect a different result. While attempting to open the box, you spot a monkey grinning at you. Being slightly peeved, do you:
Throw the box at the monkey (Page 47) or Ask the monkey to help you open it [monkeys do, of course, speak the same language as you] (Page 33)?
Ashiana
17-07-2008, 12:44 AM
page 35:
You do both (of course). you throw the box at the monkey (page 47) whilst shouting" you open it then" (page 35) and watch as the monkey cracks the box open on the conveiniently placed rock, like he was cracking open a coconut! and inside you find a map! (easy :biggrin:)
the map is braile! do you?:
give it to the monkey in hope he is a blind escapee from the local lab (page 24) or go back a few pages to the wise owl? (page 2)?
Capt_Sparrow
17-07-2008, 12:45 AM
psst! carry on the story, what's the next choice? :p
Casta_Diva
17-07-2008, 12:59 AM
Hmmmm.....
Page 24:
You pass the braille map to the monkey in hopes that he can translate for you. Foolishly, you forgot that monkeys have such a mischevious nature, and the monkey climbs the nearest tree and swings away with the map in his hand. You still have the broken silver box. You:
Chase the monkey (Page 74), Give the box a closer examination (Page 16), or Give up on the quest and try to find your way home (Page 91)

Page 74:
The monkey swings from tree to tree and you attempt to do so but fall to the ground at the third branch. As luck would have it, you land right next to a motorbike! Do you:
Hop on the bike and continue your chase (Page 10) or Refuse to mount the bike and walk as you don't have a license (Page 234787)
paintedlady
17-07-2008, 01:46 AM
thats a hard decision :p
page 10...
You hop on the bike and find out that the keys aren't in the ignition. You look up and see the monkey getting farther and farther away. Do you:
Hot wire the bike, to make it start (Page 209) or Forget about the bike and starting running to catch up with the monkey (page 591)
reecer6
17-07-2008, 04:01 AM
209:
being a (trainee) engineer, you get it working in 10 seconds. do you:
follow the monkey on the motorbike (page 131123) ride to town (page 7031) or go back to the owl and then ditch the bike? (page 2)
Casta_Diva
17-07-2008, 05:26 AM
Page 131123:
You revv your engine and start speeding after the monkey. You can see that the monkey is starting to become fatigued, and you accelerate. The monkey suddenly collapses and falls to the forest floor. You:
Snatch the map and hop back on the motorcycle (Page 89), Perform CPR (Page 5), or Sit beside the wheezing monkey while you attempt to read the braille (Page 138)
paintedlady
17-07-2008, 05:41 AM
Page 89:
You hop back on the motorcycle, put the map in a safe place and start moving ahead, but you have a guilty conscience. You feel bad for leaving the monkey there. Do you:
Go back and help out the poor monkey that is dieing (Page 52461), stop and try to attempt to read the map (Page 962) or keep on trucking and worry about the map once you reach a safe place(Page 2387)
Casta_Diva
17-07-2008, 05:44 AM
Page 962:
You slam on the brakes and take the braille map out of your pocket. You attempt to read it, but since it's only just a bunch of raised dots on the page, you get frustrated quickly! You:
Rip it in half and hop back on the motorcycle (Page 51), Put it back in your pocket to attempt later when you're less frustrated (Page 321), or Blink back your tears of rage and keep feeling away, hoping to find some sort of clue (Page 382)
Capt_Sparrow
17-07-2008, 06:46 PM
Page 382:
You keep on feeling away (the map of course!) and you notice that the raised dots are in fact a path! Having located the sun, you line up the map and attempt to follow the path. It leads straight to a swamp, with a rickety old boat moored at the bank. Do you:
Mount the boat and hope it will get you across in one piece (Page 73), Dive in and take your chances swimming across (Page 82) or Walk around the edge of the swamp, hoping it's a small one (Page 40)?
Casta_Diva
17-07-2008, 06:54 PM
Finally you came back to this thread!!!!!
Page 73:
You mount (the boat of course!) with your map in hand. You take another quick look at which direction you should go in the boat...and the map points straight into the eerie green mist at the opposite end of the swamp. You look around for a paddle and realize that there is nothing to be seen. You go to get back out of the boat to look for a stick, and the side of the boat gives way, spilling you into the muddy swamp. You:
Stand up and continue searching for a stick to use as a paddle (Page 281), Sit in the mud and cry because your designer jeans have been ruined (Page 189), or Say "eff it" and swim across the swamp (Page 6)
Capt_Sparrow
17-07-2008, 07:06 PM
Page 189:
You start crying and remember Alice in Wonderland and hope that your tears will turn into a sea and wash your jeans clean. After realising this won't happen, you roll your jeans up (you won't be taking them off because this is a family adventure) and wade through the murky swamp. After swimming a few minutes, you notice a sea monster in the middle of the swamp. Do you:
Dive down and swim around it, hoping it doesn't see you (Page 27) or Swim towards it believing your bedraggled appearance will scare anything off (Page 37)?
Casta_Diva
17-07-2008, 08:12 PM
/me wonders why noone else gets in on this amazing story!!!
Page 37 (of course!):
As soon as you see that there is a sea monster in the middle of the swamp, you adopt your very best breaststroke (the swim, sicko!) and make your way over there. You look so bedraggled that you're sure that the monster will be scared away. You get closer and closer, and then she sinks out of sight! You look frantically into the depths below you, seeing only a frightening shadow. You figure you've got the situation in the bag, and coninue swimming towards that green mist. It starts to rain. You:
Look for cover (Page 19), Don't care because you're already soaking wet, and keep swimming (Page 93)

You are like what the heck, no point of stopping now..Already being soaked, you continue on swimming on.. Your arms get tired, so you turn onto your back and start floating. While you are floating you hear a load, sound close by. Do you:
Go find out where they sound came from and what it is (being the investigator that you are) (Page 567), start swimming as fast as you can to the other side to get out of there (Page 412) or continue floating on your back hoping you will reach the other side of the swamp (Page 792).

You swim across, not caring about the rain and you get to the other side of the swap. you see the green mist was nothing but green dry ice for a movie production 5 miles away from "Owl's Nest". Do you:
stay in the mist and wait a minute for the cast members to come (page 841) or go to "Owl's Nest" (page 82)

Page 841:
You stay in the dry-ice mist, wondering when the cast members are going to come. Then you realize that it is Sunday afternoon and they are likely frolicking about their own town of "Owl's Nest", with no notion of filming their movie today. As you come to this realization, our beloved monkey crawls out of the swamp with weeds trailing behind him. He looks angry. You:
Run as fast as you can, wishing that you didn't leave your motorcycle behind (Page 931), Hide (Page 129), or Attempt to reason with the vengeful monkey (Page 829)

18-07-2008, 12:34 AM
page 829:
You say: "I just wanna go back home to Georgea!" (I don't live there) The monkey still dosen't change emotions and beats you up with a stick. After running around the swamp, losing him. Do you:
get the motorcycle and go to owl's nest, (page 378), go to owl's nest on foot and yell for help, (page 49) or go to owl's nest and get a job at the restaurant? (page 7003)
Capt_Sparrow
18-07-2008, 01:19 AM
Page 49:
You race towards Owl's Nest, and reach there in record time! (You're the only person to ever go there) However, you find that it is a town amongst the trees (if only owls nested on the ground...). You find some rope on the undergrowth (someone must be looking out for you :D), hoist it over a high branch, and slide up the greasy.... tree trunk. When you're part way up the tree, you find yourself face-to-face with a seemingly empty nest. Do you:
Investigate the contents of the nest (Page 93) or carry on climbing up (Page 94)?
Casta_Diva
18-07-2008, 01:31 AM
Page 93 (duh!!)
You hop into the nest (It's about 8 feet around!) and investigate its contents. An old sweaty sock, a piece of shiny jewellery, remnants of a mouse, a mysterious piece of paper, a couple of empty egg shells, a peacock feather, motorcycle keys...whoa what?! A mysterious piece of paper??!?!?! You grab the mysterious piece of paper and unfold it. It's just a bunch of random raised dots on a page!! Grrr, looks just like that other piece of paper that led you to certain doom and a movie set. Well, you pull the other map out of your designer jeans pocket. You put them together and discover that yes, they are just a bunch of raised dots on a page. You then realize that they must be braille and not some sort of mystical sun sign, since owls cannot see very well. You then look around for someone who might be able to decifer them for you. Before you get very far, you see a grinning monkey staring right into your face! Startled, you:
Jump out of the nest and fall to the forest floor (Page 52), Hand him the maps and beg for forgiveness (Page 20), or Distract him with the peacock feather (Page 28)
Capt_Sparrow
18-07-2008, 01:48 AM
Of course, you turn to Page 28:
You once read that monkey's are immensely ticklish to peacock feathers, so you begin to tickle the furry creature. He laughs and laughs and then tells you to stop. You carry on but then realise that he just talked to you in English so you halt in astonishment. You ask him how whether he can read the map for you. The monkey scratches his head, takes out a flea and eats it. Then he offers to do the same to you, so you let him in the spirit of human-ape friendship. He then motions to you to follow him and clambers up the tree. Do you:
Take after your new found friend (Page 41), Think that it's ridiculous to trust a monkey (Page 63) or Look for more fleas in your hair (Page 5)?
Casta_Diva
18-07-2008, 03:59 AM
Well....I'm sure I will flip to Page 41!!!
Page 41:
You race after the monkey, keeping his tail in sight, since he's going pretty fast. "Hurry up!!!!" he exlaims. You keep climbing, but trying to go faster. There is no way you could climb a tree as fast as a monkey but you try anyway. You climb past another nest and then you feel a monkey hand on your shoulder, dragging you back. He had stopped at the nest and you didn't see him! So you enter the second nest which looks much like the first nest, except there is no peacock feather this time. The monkey (let's call him Jim) attacks your hair again and pulls out a few more fleas. Then he sits down cross-legged and begins to hum. He is meditating. You:
Sneakily grab the maps and slowly back out of the nest (Page 192), Wait for Jim to be done his meditation (Page 14), or Attempt to shake him out of his trance (Page 153)
/me is thinking that this thread needs more action! Is it really that confusing?
reecer6
18-07-2008, 04:23 PM
Page 14:
being a nice person, you wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait. Jim's finaly done meditating for an hour! Jim says, "I sence supernatural creatures are looking for you." You say, "thanks for the info" and then you get out of the nest. the monkey gave you physic powers (the power to see ghosts other than those ones that haunt places) so you see a friendly ghost infront of you. the ghost says: "Hi, my name's Mildred" do you:
Run away (page 1741) make friends with her (page 51) or say to her "I've heard of you in a book I've read! (page 60113)
P.S. the book is called "Golden and Grey

Page 1741 (because I've never read that book....):
Your eyes open very wide upon hearing her speak, and her name itself is so frightening that you flee in terror! You trip over a tree root and tumble down a slope, finding yourself in the midst of a large cult meeting. Trouble is, this isn't a human cult...it is a huge gathering of....butterflies!!! Of course, the cult leader is the monarch butterfly (har har, I'm funny) which also frightens you. You:
Decide to take your chances with Mildred (Page 781), Use your psychic powers to understand the butterfly language (Page 912), or Get out your fly swatter and start swinging for broke (Page 6)
melon
18-07-2008, 07:20 PM
You draw your fly swatter suddenly, swiping at the colourful oncoming butterfly battalions, putting on your most agressive face.
The butterflies mistake your attack for a Godly act, and raise you up as a deity. You:
Wish to bathe in butterfly luxury for many moons to come (Page 54)
Formulate a secret plan in which to use the butterflies for your own warped plans (Page 97)
Die due to poisons accidentally transferred spores from their butterfly fur (Page 67)
Capt_Sparrow
19-07-2008, 12:00 AM
Page 97:
You conscript the Butterfly Battalion for your own secret, warped, twisted, macabre plan :twisted: You give out a shriek of maniacal laughter which tears through the sombre sky - muahahahahaaaa! (Back to the plot:) You lead your winged warriors back to Owl's Nest for a showdown with those that dwell there. Tonight, the trees will be yours! Do you:
Charge right in, antennae first (Page 743), Lay siege to the tree-dwellers (Page 99) or Use yourself as bait to lull the dwellers out, then maul them with your army (Page 100)?
Casta_Diva
19-07-2008, 12:11 AM
Page 743:
You use your psychic powers to direct the butterflies straight for the trees in question. They charge as quickly as their little wings can take them. However it seems as though the owls have returned home to sleep for the day (because they are nocturnal, silly). The thought had not crossed your mind for even a second that owls like to eat bugs, especially of the monarch variety (they have expensive taste). The owls figure they don't need to sleep quite yet, and charge your Butterfly Battalion. Needless to say, the butterflies don't put up much of a fight against those nasty birds. Well, they were cult followers anyway...
You:
Stand there like a dummy while the owls shift their gaze to you (Page 27), Run as fast as you can, right through Mildred (Page 237), or Play dead and hope the owls just go to sleep (Page 56)
Capt_Sparrow
19-07-2008, 12:24 AM
Page 56:
You play dead, these owls need their sleep after all and shouldn't bother you. Alas, you haven't thought of the wisdom of the owls. They all swoop down and land, silently, in a circle around you. You can feel their piercing gazes on the back of your neck and you can stay still no longer, so you sit up and face your fate. The largest owl steps forward, offers you a wing, and introduces himself as Quentin, Mayor of Owl's Nest. He tells you that he is prepared to overlook your unprovoked attack on his community if you swear never to take up arms against him again. Naturally you agree, and to your surprise, he invites you up for tea and cakes. He seems a nice enough fellow (after all he did spare your life) and as you stand up to follow him, you notice a golden key hanging around his neck. Do you:
Take up Quentin's cordial invitation [you're famished] (Page 30) or Grab the key from his neck, threaten to swallow it, and use this to make your escape (Page 273)?
Casta_Diva
19-07-2008, 12:56 AM
Page 30:
You decide to take Quentin up on his cordial invitation, and follow him up a tree and into one of the huge nests. It seems as though Quentin takes you right to the very first nest that you had visited, the one with the other half of the map. Which calls a question to mind: "What happened to that map anyway?!" You think back, and seem to recall dropping it on the ground in your flight to get away from Mildred the Ghost. You shrug, remembering your frustration at trying to read the braille, and bring your mind back to the task at hand -- the golden key. You concentrate on eating your mouse cake with proper owl manners, so as to not offend Quentin. However you cannot even choke down the tea as it has a taste only owls could love :eek: After the small talk has gone on long enough, you say to Quentin:
"Well, it's been nice but I had better get going...cheerio!" (Page 57), "GIVE ME THAT KEY!!!!" (Page 923), or "So tell me, where did you get that beautiful peacock feather?" (Page 265)
Capt_Sparrow
19-07-2008, 01:13 AM
Page 265:
You just don't have the heart to grab the key off the neck of your host, so you begin to talk about the peacock feather, which had also caught your attention (it must have come from such a large co.. peacock). It transpires that this feather has been handed down for generations of mayors in Owl's Nest and it is thought that it contains mystical powers. Being curious, you probe further and Quentin tells you of the legend of the "Coming of the Two Legs" who will unite the feather, the key and one other object which is unknown to the owls. Quentin then admits that he brought you up here to ask you to be the bearer of these objects and to fulfil the legend. Do you:
Accept the task as it makes you feel important [you'll also get your mitts on those two precious objects] (Page 49) or Run, run awaaaay from this mad avian fool! (Page 88)?
Casta_Diva
19-07-2008, 01:35 AM
Page 49:
You eagerly accept Quentin's task and he hands you over the feather and hangs the key around your neck (using his slippery feather hands, of course). You put the feather behind your ear, and jump out of the nest to fall 20 feet down onto an ever-so-conveniently-placed trampoline. You chuckle at the convenience of the placing, and hop off of the trampoline. Then you remember that you forgot to ask about any hints for the third item! Shrugging, you set off to find Jim since he might be able to help you. You find him swimming in the swamp with the sea monster -- and then the thought dawns on you! The third item must be being guarded by the monster, in the dark muddy depths of the swamp. You:
Take the peeeeecock feather off of your ear and tickle your nose with it, because sneezing helps you think (Page 983), Roll up your designer jeans and start swimming towards the sea monster (Page 72), or Run back to Owl's Nest to tell Quentin of your idea (Page 43)
reecer6
19-07-2008, 02:15 AM
page 72:
you follow the sea monster a get a glimpse of what the third item is. it's a necklace with 10 purple diamonds! you sneak up to the sea monster and get on him. you climb up his neck and grab the necklace tangled in it's ears. apparently the sea monster either liked the necklace, his/her ears in a tangle, or both because he through you back to the roof of the highest skyscraper in Owl's nest. you see that teampoline AGAIN and jump off the roof. when you get to the ground you think. should you...
run away with the 3 items (page 333) or give the items to Quentin (page 3210)
Casta_Diva
19-07-2008, 06:53 AM
You have a very tough decision on your hands....but you are curious as to what these three items may do in conjunction with each other. So.....
Page 3210:
You climb up that greasy tree trunk for what seems like it might be the last time. You savour everything on your way up because you are very unsure as to what Quentin might do with you once your quest has been completed - will he shower you with praise, or will he dump you out of the nest on the side where there is no conveniently placed trampoline? Either way, you feel as though you are doing the right thing, as a martyr perhaps. You reach Quentin's nest and see an assembly line of owls (who all look basically the same). Seated on the far right of the assembly line is our good friend, the mentally retarded owl (remember from the beginning?). You hope that he doesn't recognize you since you attacked him and stole his silver box. You:
Take your tiems and leave the nest for fear of being recognized (Page 83), Stand proudly and present the three items to Quentin (Page 77), or Charge and push the mentally retarded owl out of the nest, hoping that he can't fly (Page 40)
Capt_Sparrow
19-07-2008, 06:09 PM
Page 77:
Having come this far, your curiosity gets the better of you and you march across the nest, placing the items at Quentin's feet. He gives you a resounding hoot of approval which knocks you back a few steps. He then takes flight along with all the other owls.... except mentally retarded one. He offers a wing, indicating he is offering you a ride to follow the other owls. You're unsure whether this would be safe or not (can he even fly??). Do you:
Go for the safe option and refuse to fly with him (Page 11) or What the hell! Let's go and fly! (Page 66)?
(I hope I do this right)
Page 66:
You're unsure whether it's safe or not, but you decide to go for it. You mumble "What the hell" and accept his offer. The mentally retarded owl leaps into the sky and starts flying. You cannot see the other owls until you look behind you and notice that the mentally retarded owl is flying the opposite direction. You:
Say "Uh.....you're going the wrong way!" (page 14) Just go along for the ride and see where he takes you (page 78) or Try to steer him the way you want to go (page 45)
Casta_Diva
20-07-2008, 08:18 AM
Yep, you did it perfectly, Nyna! Warning: Casta_Diva is a wee bit tipsy and will not be held responsible for any irrational directions this tale may turn.
Page 45:
You have far too much to lose now due to a mentally retarded owl who can't even fly in the right direction. You're not about to try reasoning with him because you have no idea just the level of his mental retardation....so you begin to steer him around to try and catch Quentin and his crew (Lets call them the...Quentin Quintuplets). They're at least two km ahead of you, but you lean into the mentally retarded owl and eventually he picks up speed. You reach the Quentin Quintuplets in record time, and ask them where they are going. They look at you inquisitively, and Quentin says "Why we're going mouse hunting, of course! Who are you?" Absolutely stunned, you:
Shout at him, explaining the quest he had given you (Page 8319), Say "Cool, I like eating mice!" (Page 3817), or Just steer your owl down to the ground and you set of in search of the way home (Page 82149)
storm
20-07-2008, 05:19 PM
I love this story! It would make such a cool movie! :biggrin: hehe.
Page 82149
Shocked that Quentin has forgotten you already, you steer your mentally retarded owl to the ground, because you're so exasperated and fed up with these owls and their lousy memories.
You see a bunch of monkeys having a huge party. There's a sign on a rock that says "couples only". You notice Jim hanging around outside. He gives you a wink and waves his tail at you. Suddenly you notice a female monkey with Jim.
Do you: try to flirt with Jim anyway by offering to eat a flea off his head so he takes you to the party (page 294), say your mentally retarded owl is your date (page 507), or stare longingly at the party then leave because you haven't got a date (page 934)
page 934
You stare longingly at the party then decide to leave because you haven't got a date. You start off on your way home a bit disappointed that you couldn't attend the party and a bit confused at your whole ordeal with the owls when suddenly a dark figure on a strange looking beast appears ahead of you in the path. You
Scream and run back the way you came towards the monkey's couples only party (pg 87) Jump into the bushes and try to hide (pg 34) or Cautiously approach the figure and question who he is (pg 16)
bumping this because I wanna know what comes next in the story!
