I could ask you to TELL me a story, but this time I want you to TERM me a story!
That's right, "term" a story- write a story using as many City of Heroes/Villains terms as you possibly can.
Details
It's storytelling time, but with a twist. All of you creative authors are being challenged to put your skills to the test! Write the most creative story you can utilizing the ever familiar terminology found within the City of Heroes/Villains universe.
Rules
All stories must be entered by Sunday November 21st at 11:59 PST.
COH/COV terms that may be used include the following: badge titles, power(set) names, archetype names, base/invention salvage names, enemy groups, recipes/enhancement names, etc.
Proper names may not be used unless they are being used as a noun and not a name. For example, "SYNAPSE and NEURON fought against each other" would NOT be allowed, but "In the nervous system, a SYNAPSE is a structure that permits a NEURON to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another cell" would be allowed.
All words that are COH/COV terms must be capitalized within the story and entrants should put a total of the number of terms used (count each once).
