I decided that it might be fun to “continue” the stories of Jane Austen’s books (consider this like my fanfiction). You don’t need to have read any Austen to play, just follow the instructions given. I’ve done five out of the six completed novels. I’ve left out Pride and Prejudice as, between britto08’s Continue the Story Congrats and one of Nyx’s previous NTNBs, it’s been done.

Naming rules for each story will be found before the line of 10 asterisks. Feel free to ask questions if you’ve got them (or to point out mistakes). And remember that these are taking place from the early- to mid-1800s.

---

Happy naming! :)
