We're only a few posts in. The basics are that it starts mostly like the books; all of the characters meet and form a group, mostly by chance, at the mall. Because they live in a small town and mostly grew up together, most characters have pre-existing relationships, which Dot and I encourage. Friends, enemies, crushes/lovers, exes, family, whatever. Please keep such relationships in mind when making your character. Anyways, they've only just really started meeting up. Once they leave, they will decide to take a short cut through an old construction site, where they will see a UFO and the fun will really begin. :)
