Okay, so I got this idea. What if we all wrote short novellas and combine into a, per say, compilation book? We could all write 16,000 character or more stories, and compile them into one compilation book.

Though it would be cool to actually release this book and sell in stores, and even advertise the Wiki, it wouldn't actually be published. Jagex's copyright of RuneScape and all. Our hiney's would be sued so bad if we actually tried to sell a book on a copyrighted subject.

I was thinking that if this underwent, we could all decide on a cover page for it, just because.

Anyone interested? 03:40, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * This sounds like a pretty cool idea. I can do a cover page for the "compilation". --21:35, 29 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Like the sound of it. Mr. Garrison 22:33, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

I was thinking that we could have the title be something like "RuneScape Fan Fiction Compilation 1: <Insert a title here (e.g.: 'Dark Times', 'All's Well in Gielinor')", assuming we have another collaboration. If we don't, we'd probably take out the "1". 00:08, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Isn't Special:Allpages easier to use? 00:22, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, yes, but that lists redirects, articles, stories and everything. This is going to have stories only. 01:26, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Here's something I worked up in Photoshop. We don't have to have the title be "Chronicles from Gielinor". I just added that as an example. Any comments? 05:52, 1 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Nice cover, shame I don't have paintshop pro (or the money to get it). Anyway, a compilation would be a great idea, i would pitch in. Once i was bored, so i planned all the role plays on the wiki as movies, and Time Fractures as TV show. I also planned an information book called Planet of the Lost about the various stories on RuneScape Fan Fiction. Arnie 10:01, 1 March 2008 (UTC)


 * That cover looks great! Is that cover sized for Letter size paper, A4, or did the size just look right? I can scale it to A4/Letter if needed. --17:40, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I had a paperback "Star Wars: Missions" book that seemed to be the right size for children/pre-teen/teen paperback books. It measured out at 7.5x5 inches, I think it was. I don't know the dimensions for "A4" size, so I can't answer that for you.
 * On another note, I think we should all say what we're going to write (if you are). I'm going to write Freneskae: The Fifth Empire. 02:12, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * A4 is 210x297 millimeters, Letter is 8.5x11 inches. One inch is 25.4 millimeters. Perhaps A5 (148x210 millimeters) is rather suitable. (A5 is rather similar to a US Half Letter, which is 5.5x8.5 inches.)
 * Also, perhaps a theme for the compilation could be defined. This would be helpful in too many ways to list. :-) --17:47, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully, we've all seen the new JaGx RuneScape shop, with a RuneScape book. If we do a good enough compilation, perhaps we could submit it! Of course, we'd have to be careful about the material we put in - JaGex would probably not publish the Science Fantasy Runiverse stories.

 * I agree. We actually have a plethora of Science Fiction pages based on ideas from Doctor Who (British television show), thanks to The Evil Dude (no offence intended). --
