The aim of this game is to create a story (of any description). There are 2 players, the Describer and the Actor. They take it in turns posting either an action, or a description of an action.
For example:

D: You are face down on a bed.
A: Get up.
D: You are in a small room with a cupboard, a box on the floor and a door. (Feel free to elaborate on the descriptions)
A: Open cupboard.
D: There is a small box, and a white uniform.
etc.

RULES:
1. No explicit randomness. I don't mind humor, but no "you are attacked by a swarm of pink hydrae." or randomness to similar extremes.
2. No decisions of non-player-character actions by the Actor. In other words:
WRONG:
A: I throw a dagger at the rat and it dies.
RIGHT:
A: I throw a dagger at the rat.
D: It dies.
3. Death of the character will be allowed, but should probably be avoided most of the time; it should only be invoked when the player is all-powerful. Be creative with the cause of death, but remember the golden rule: no randomness.
4. No doing impossible things. This should be obvious, but you'd be surprised how much it came up when I played it.
(To clarify, you start the game with no inventory, except clothes.)
IMPORTANT: THE RULES ON DEATH HAVE BEEN CHANGED.



D: You are in darkness.

D. After you drift off to sleep, a pebble falls on your head, waking you up and giving you permanent insomnia.

D. As you stumble about, your flailing arm hits a light switch. You seem to be in a spacious bathroom. The floor is concrete and the only fixtures are a medical style stainless steel sink, amedicine cabinet, and an ornate standing bathtub. There are no windows, but there is a heavy wooden door which seems to be stuck closed.

D: Inside the cabinet is a small container of pills. They look like capsules and are purple in color. The cap is a twist off cap.

D:Your left eye starts twitching uncontrollably. There seems to be no other symptoms.
