So it has been a while, and the last time we did this was pretty awesome for like a day or so. Let's try again...
-----------------------------------
So, the idea behind this thread is that we are going to construct our own text adventure. What happens is, at the end of each post, a person leaves a prompt with a command, like so:
> look around
The next poster must then write the output of that command, and then write his own command to be answered at the bottom of his post.
There will also be a small set of generally recognized abbreviations:
> i -- > check inventory
> e -- > east (same for all cardinal directions, including stuff like nw)
> l -- > look around
> l <object/person> -- > look at <object/person>
> t <person> <words> -- > tell <person> <words>.
for clarity, please leave a line between your answer and your command.
This is a text adventure, no pictures please.
If two people post an answer at the same time, ignore the second answer and command.
No game overs.
(Regarding realism, this is a mixed bag. A realistic adventure is fun. But so is an adventure filled with cyborgs and random stuff breaking through half of the house. Just try to keep it to one of the extremes. A half realistic adventure is not fun at all.)
(Regarding reseting, try to only do this if the main character dies, or has basically no more options. Do not reset to arbitrarily end a story path you do not like.)
---RULE UPDATE (Triclops200)---
No unneccessary pain/death/injury. This is not "Bad Luck Brian."

Now, let me start this.

You were having a wonderful dream when you suddenly wake up to the screaming of your teacher.
"Wake up!, and pay attention!'
> l
You're in a class-room. To the north there is a door. You are lying in a puddle of blood. It seems to be half-congealed around some object.
> l object
You realize it is not blood, but in fact your spittle on your pencil.
"Hello? I said pay attention!"
> l teacher
You see a goblin ahead. You raise your axe of +2 power and plunge ahead.
>kill goblin
"What the hell are you doing? Why did you throw your backpack at me? Go to the principals office, now!"
> report to principal
You find yourself in chains being dragged to the dragon's lair. You must escape!
>gnaw arm
Look! Listen!
> t "I said shut the hell up!"
Teacher: "Pay attention to where you are walking, and I will not 'shut up'."
>slay dragon.
You cast shinkick on the dragon!
500 damage inflicted!
