  yeah, do a blog, not a chat room. blogs are more permanent & easier to find. plus if you do it dictionary style, you can add more entries later -- you just have to put the new entries in the alphabetical table of contents and link them. I think you should do 2 blogs. One: what people need to do to join the story and go into the story -- like make a character full length image and backstory so they can be added. 2. The dictionary. Maybe 3 a character dictionary that links the name back to their original character post where they give a backstory. Start simple. Do the easiest blog first or do a practice blog first. My first blog was very simple: just a title, a picture, an cover image, a video link, a little text. It was to see how to do stuff. Same with the dictionary, start small. Just do one or two item: like Vampire -- how Amalia is like most vampires and how she is different from most vampires. The green drink: why is it green, what was it originally, how it can change people/stuf

  1) At the heart of the Zone, in the Chernoblyl plant Nuclear reactor lies the nexus of if all. The Monolith. Periodiacaly, waves of weird exotic energy emanet off it: What we call Emissions. These interact with Anomalies (areas, usually very small - but not always, wherin Reality breaks down ). Most Anomalies are already existant, but each Emission creates more. That interaction, very often results in the creation of Artifacts. Objects mostly small in size, most time resembling very strange rocks. Artifacts have strange, exotic, sometimes miraculous, properties. They are extremely valuable, very much sought for. Smuggling Artifacts outside the Zone is the main source of income for Stalkers. It attracts many people to come in the Zone and make their fortunes in that trade. Stalkers also use Artifacts in various ways For instance, the ammunition they use, (ARENA -ARtifact Enhanced Ammunition) is produced localy in the Zone by the proccesing of a certain type of Artifact.

  The chat room sounds like a good idea actually so it's easier to discuss or inspire group story ideas. The blog is more for information source, not discussion or collaboration. Well it coulbe collaboration but it's limited because "reply" stops showing after only a few reply. Chatrooms can reply a lot. The back story of Amalia sounds great especially because then you can bring ovr the NC images. The origin of the Zone is good too. If it's based on a game but also how it has evolved to be different from the game. Also a chronological link blog would be nice -- just a link and the date, maybe no explanation because that would mean a lot of work. Maybe character name. Oh never mind, I just realize you have so many links and now other people too, that it would be a lot of work to keep a link blog up to date.

  I can understand . It feels different because it's more permanent but it's very like putting up a feed post. It's mostly the same interface plus a little bit extra. I did a blog on how to do a blog and tried to break down the steps as much as possible. If you are still a little worried, you can do a simple first one when we are on at the same time so its easy for you to ask questions if you have any.

  This idea eeps getting bigger, in my mind. Especially as people start to create zone images, trying to piece together what's happenning there from a few images I've posted. Most of it is in my mind. I even take it for granted that everyone - for instance - has deduced what's happening with Stagazer, Amalia and green-glowing vodka, while it's just you that does know, becouse - well, it has been created in our commentary exchange 😄

  @CaylaCatz ....you know.... i think you have a point here.... Actually... Lately, on recon-missions in the streets of Pripyat, I may have been... checking out stores.... jewelry stores.... looking for a certain...uh.. object. DON"T tell my wizard kid cousin!! I've already told you.... the next instant, my mom will know all about it! I swear, they are connected telepathically, those two!! (I just added my answer about artifatcs to the Bard's chatroom for the Zone as a tryout)

• @CaylaCatz · Apr 30, 2026

  very cool explanation. Keep it. If you make a dictionary blog of Zone terms, you can use it. We can do jump links now so you can put all the words alphabetically up top. People can click and go to the definition.

• @CaylaCatz · Apr 30, 2026

  cool! hope you find a nice certain object that will make a certain person very happy. That's a good idea about dropping it into the chatroom for eveyone. I'm sure you're going to get another sone soon. Going on some errands. See you

  Holt's not that kind of stalker! He's just really good at showing up where he might be needed. Plus, he really likes killing things that need killing. And the Exclusion Zone is a target-rich environment! Thanks for including me!
