I think this is legitimately the most stupid video I've put up since the Bug Fables LP. Writing isn't exactly my specialty, so I hope you like watching train wrecks!

Here are the rules so far (Prone to change, I was still figuring out these rules in the video, if I do this again this will be the ruleset I follow.):

1. I must write a cohesive story based on randomly determined genres and characters. When switching between genres or adding new elements due to the random nature of this game, I must figure out how to most naturally implement it into the story so it makes sense. (To the best of my ability and limitations.)

2. Every 15 minutes, I must switch genres. The genre I'm given will be random, and I cannot reroll it unless it is nearly impossible for it to make sense within the context. (Ex: Space Opera genre gets rolled when everybody is in a fantasy world.) A genre can be used multiple times in a row. While there is a time limit imposed on this, it's a bit more of a suggestion because the time can come up at inconvenient times where it's difficult to hard switch from one genre to another. In instances like these, I may prolong the time a bit to finish my train of thought, or at least write a transition from one genre to another, but I can't skip out on the genre that I rolled, I must eventually write the story with the rolled genre in mind. Once I start writing in a new genre, the 15 minute time limit gets reset.

3. Every time I introduce a character, I must roll to determine who it is. There is no time limit on when I have to introduce characters, I introduce characters at my own pace. That being said, I can't completely neglect introducing new characters, if I can introduce a new character without it feeling unnatural, I will introduce a new character into the story. The same character cannot be rolled twice unless there is a logical story reason why. If I roll the same character again, I reroll until I get a new one.

4. I keep writing until one of these things happen:
a. I make a conclusive ending to the story.
b. I have to reroll genre and I feel the video is a good enough length.
c. I write myself into a corner and I have no idea what to write anymore.
d. My mental energy is exhausted and I need to stop.
