Task 1: Create a setting.
This would be where it takes place, be it a school, a house, a city, an imaginary world, etc. We want you to be detailed in this. It needs to be 1000 words or more (you will thank us for this later).
The land is barren and dark. Slopes of mud and ash run deep through the earth as a heavy rain has drowned most animals out of their holes. Trees are either cut or burned, only a few young saplings remain, left to fend against the freezing winds. On a broken cliff side there's a barely visible ruin of a castle, occupied by a group of resistance fighters. The world of magic is coming to an end. The war between mages and muds has now lasted for over two decades and left the world in a desolated state. Where it all began, few can remember. The details have become vague overtime and the blame has shifted from one to the other. What is certain, is that the muds have united themselves under one banner. Every town and city now proudly serves under the banner of an individual only known as "The Inquisitor". They preach one simple mission, to eradicate all magic from the face of the earth. Wizards and witches get imprisoned and publicly trialled, blamed for using their dangerous and volatile magic abilities. Most if not all ministries have fallen, the schools that were discovered got burned to the ground. Magical beings were eliminated on sight, children were sent off to special camps for "enlightenment". In response to the mud regime's diabolical actions, a small resistance group still continues to fight. This brittle alliance between mages and beings has secured them an outpost in the northern reaches of the world.

Task 2: Create a main character.
This would be your main protagonist. Tell us about them - what do they look like, where did they come from, what are their strengths and weaknesses and what are their flaws. Why are they in this story and what do you want them to gain from their adventure. Be as detailed as you can regarding this. It needs to be 1000 words or more (you will thank us for this later).
Coming Soon

Task 3: Create a main plot.
This is where you talk about the main story itself. What are they doing? Is this a journey, a coming of age experience, a battle against a terrifying nemesis, etc. Consider doing this in an outline format to make things more organized. It needs to be 1000 words or more (you will thank us for this later).
Coming Soon.

Task 4: Create 2 subplots.
Subplots are other important and relevant stories that are ongoing but are not a part of the main story. Love interests or dealing with a school bully/rival are a few examples of this. Again, consider writing this in an outline format to make things more organized for yourself. It needs to be 1000 words or more (you will thank us for this later).
Coming Soon.

Task 5: Create at least three secondary characters.
Who are they? What is their relationship to the main character? No story is ever only about one character, there's a whole world full of people around your protagonist! Think about why they are important and what their function in the story is. There need to be 300 words per secondary character.
Coming Soon.
