 This is a page collecting an overview of original stories and narrative-focused settings, which were created via a long-term collaborative process between several members of the AH.com board.
-By "narrative-focused", we mean that these are settings and stories where the storytelling is the foremost element. These //arent't// roleplays like in Shared Worlds, or anything similar. There is no gameplay involved, only an effort to build a story-focused shared universe (either for fun, or as a setting for potential stories).

 By "original", we mean collaborative projects that are not based on existing fiction at all, or are only loosely inspired by an existing work of fiction (i.e. taking one or two basic ideas, but otherwise doing their own thing entirely).

 A collaborative worldbuilding project, trying to imagine what a post-apocalyptic America would be like if it reverted back to a medieval level of technology and society. Originally inspired by Matthew White's somewhat tongue-in-cheek rendition of the idea, in [[http://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/atlas-of-medieval-america.61127/|his work from the early 2000s]], //[[http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/medvam/index.htm|The Atlas of Medieval America]]//. Though the initial "Medieval America Co-op Project" has stalled and gone on hiatus, some people have occassionally (and briefly) revived the idea on a minor scale in recent years.

-The [[Superverse]] was, aptly enough, started by [[offtopic:Superman]] (the board member, not the superhero) as an effort to create a shared, interconnected universe for superhero stories. It contains both realistically geared superheroes and fantastical/supernatural ones, though it's generally not //too fantastical// overall.
