Spinning Compass

Sometimes the world you create on the page seems more friendly and alive than the world you actually live in.

Since the dawn of time, storytellers have enchanted audiences with their words. But there is an even rarer gift. There are those who, by reading out loud, can bring characters to life. Out of books and into our world. Most of these people prefer to keep their skills a secret but some do not even know this gift is theirs, until it is too late.

You know how your story begins, do you know how it ends?


Have you ever invested weeks, months, or perhaps years into character development only for a game to suddenly lose interest? For things to go awry and you choose to part ways? Are you sitting in a game that you've lost interest in simply because you don't wish to lose all that character development?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then Spinning Compass is for you!

We at Spinning Compass allow character development from any game. From Insane Journal? Approved! From Live Journal? Approved! From Dreamwidth? Approved! It doesn't matter what journal format they come from, your character will be approved!

We also accept Original Characters, and any canon fandom characters.

Character approval pending application acceptability.

Books are adventure! They contain murder and mayhem and passion. They love anyone who opens them.

The Dome

Every survivor has a story if you ask; a tale of hardship that happened when the world changed. When the dead came back. Catch a crowd here in dome 4, Delphi to the locals, and you can find every story imaginable. The pack of kids who stuck together to raise each other, the brothers who never stopped moving, the soldier on a mission with no end, the coroner stuck caring for the living... everyone here has seen something, and the sum of it all is that each of us had seen enough.

Maybe that was the inspiration for the domes, the idea that a thousand survivor’s stories could become one; a unified narrative that echoed the one we’d lost, that said clearly that we weren’t going any-fucking-where even if the whole world we’d known already had.

Sure is the case now. We couldn’t leave if our lives depended on it. And it’s starting to look like they do.

The doors to Delphi sealed tight over a week ago, and the lot of us inside? All we can do is wait for them to open and try to survive the changes happening all around us. Strange attacks, unexplained deaths, and all the paranoia they bring to the people who survive them? They make things like starving to death seem downright boring. Every night’s a gamble now, because there’s things in the dark that outrank us on the food chain.

The best we can do is make them earn the meal, and maybe leave a story with whoever lasts the longest...
