All anyone needs to write a story is a ink and an idea. What's hard is creating a character.

The Storyteller spends his life creating characters. He's one of the few who can Read characters into the world, making them real and in turn changing their source material so that they can peaceably exist in our world. Since 1990 he has been Reading characters at random- from books, comics, movies and songs. If a character has a name, they can be Read. They wind up in Boston, histories just a memory and new lives ahead of them.

OUR MOST WANTED: Nightwing, Robin and Spoiler seek Batman, Batgirl, Jason Todd, Supergirl, and just about everyone else to have ever shown their face in DC Comics; Tony Stark seeks Pepper Potts and Commander Nick Fury; Chance and Guererro of Human Target seek Winston and Ames; the Firefly crew seek Inara and Zoe, Crowley from Good Omens seeks Aziraphale.

The Fountain is a panfandom game with origins in Inkheart and Vertigo's Fables. Any character who has a name and a fictional backstory is available for play- books, movies, television, song essences, folklore, etc. We're a low-key game- that means the hammer doesn't drop if activity slows, judgment isn't passed on creative content, and nobody's going to hate you if you miss a night or two to catch up on sleep. All levels of RP experience are welcome!

The Fountain opens for game-wide plot on April 1st. Applications submitted before that time will be reviewed for pre-play.
