You are in The Central Library… anything can happen here. In fact, the possible can become actuality while you stay here. Things are always changing. Some for the better, some for the worst… it really all depends on one thing. You.
Take a look around, visit the worlds through the book portals, and slowly bring it back to life. The more you do, the better life will get. But be wary, not everything is a fun story and not everything is harmless. Sometimes you will have your life at stake and others you will simply have to enjoy your stay.
You can use RNG to pick a scenario below… or you can pick your own! Whatever delights your fancy and makes you feel at home within the walls of The Central Library.
1. Arrival – You wake up in the main hall. The reception desk is behind you and you know you heard someone whispering “Save us” in your ear… but where are you? The hall gleams and there are many doors amongst the shelves of books. It is rather huge and a walkway circles a second floor… where are you? Well… you might want to ask.
2. Market Place – The Central Library has turned the large conference room into an open gateway to a market place. It shifts and changes along with the Library, but food is always available to those living there as long as the portal is open. Step into a Parisian market of modern day, an open market of the Dark Ages, or even a trading post in the Old West. Go shopping, take a stroll… your imagination is your only limit.
3. Go Out to Dinner – There aren’t many places to go out to eat in The Central Library, in fact, it is best to keep food to the living quarters. But when you go through portals in events, you experience whole new worlds from every era and every place. Possibly you may sit in at the Mad Tea Party or even dine in the Great Hall at Hogwarts. You pick. You decide…
4. Non-Fiction Immersion – It’s raining. Inside. You’ll find that Non-fiction has a way of ruining your day to day life in the Library. Some book in the Non-fiction section has burst open letting out a monsoon of types that only gets worse as you get to that section. Find it, close it… or we all just might float away.
5. Fiction Invasion – Sometimes things slip through. Little things or big things. After all, monsters do hide in the dark corners and in some sections of the grand structure. But this time… the problem is small, small size that is. Pixies have invaded. They are troublesome things… they love to cause problems and make life a little miserable. You need to catch them before they steal you blind… and possibly cause you too much mischief. You may need a net… but please, try not to kill them.
6. Cleaning is Necessary – You are stuck here, you might want to make it home. Being in such disrepair, it needs a little love and care. I’m sure the janitor’s closets have some tools and no harm in trying to pick up books and shelve them. Just be careful… they are rather testy about where they go.
7. A posse ad esse – Anything is possible. This is your Wild Card. Have fun with it!

Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Harry was a good guy...I hope he'll be okay without me.
[Bob chuckles.]
Beside's your work...romance novels, the sexier the better.

[A hint of color will cross his cheekbones and he'll look away modestly.]
I hope, then, that my works have pleased you, though I would be the first to admit, that I have only hinted at... the more intimate aspects of human nature.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
[Bob chuckles slightly.]
You have have just hinted at it but other people decided to take the ideas and run with them....and run...and run. I've read quite a few stories that make me wonder what tentacles could really do given the chance.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Yeah they do say that. And you should be very flattered. I would be if people were writing monster sex stories.

Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Different strokes for different folks I suppose. Sorry if I've made you uncomfortable, but when you get to be my age you don't worry about what people think.

Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
People need to loosen up a little more. Trying fit things in neat little boxes only leads to trouble.

Boy howdy do I know what that's like. My boss is the secret keeping king.

Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
My boss he's a wizard named Harry Dresden. I help him make potions, provide magical information, scout places for him once and a while when he lets me out.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Yeah you'd be right on that one. Familiars are almost always animals. I'm more like a magical Google or computer.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Oh right...sorry time is a weird thing for me. I'm like a magical notebook filled with every type of writing you can think of.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Ahhh.... that makes things all the more transparent...
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
You ask me and I can help you write new stories. The things my boss has had to deal with would make an awesome novel.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Well, my well has zombie dinosaurs in it so pick my brain all you want Mr.Lovecraft. It would be an honor.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Yep and it's all true. Helped my boss with the spell myself and he told me all about how it ended up working out.
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Re: Bob the Skull l the Dresden Files l
Warlocks were trying to raise the dead in Grant Park and he kinda figured it's better to fight zombies with zombies. Actually ended up working out better and worse then he thought.
