Collaborative Carnage

Introduction

The true origins of this seemingly endless yarn are lost in the misty cyberdepths of Google Groups. Basically, somebody on alt.games.diablo / alt.roundtable, possibly TheRealJay, posted a message along the lines of "wouldn't it be great if AGD's best fanfic authors collaborated on a fanfic?" We all agreed that it would be great, but instead, Rob (aka the Sultan of Swing), Stephen van Ham, and I wrote this, dubbed "Collaborative Carnage" by SvH. The mysterious Purple also contributed a chapter before coming to his senses and washing his hands of the whole ugly matter.

In addition, you'll find a series of chapters called "Just Plain Carnage" wherein I bring the "Collaborative Carnage" story to a conclusion. Also, you'll find "Collaborative Carnage: The Next Generation," featuring the fanfic stylings of tempus fugit, Rob and yours truly.
