The Mountain Pass ⛰️The climb grows steeper, and the ruins carved into the cliffs call to you. In the cold wind, two paths open: one leading into darkness, the other into danger.
The Forgotten Mines ⛏️
Prompt: Read a book published more than 10 years ago.
Outcome: You descend into the mines, where treasures — and monsters — lie in wait.
The Storm Peak ⚡

Another UpdateI just now saw that my calendar reading skills are really bad, the challenge ends on October 6th 10 am CEST, not October 5th :)
Team Update – Round Two Begins! 🎉📚We’ve officially reached the point where all Round 1 tasks have been claimed. Amazing work, everyone! 🙌 That means it’s time to kick off Round 2, even if we don't have much time left.
Here’s how it will work:
You can start claiming Round 2 tasks once you’ve finished all of your Round 1 tasks.
If you claim a task in Round 2 and finish it before the Round 1 version of that task is completed, your book will count for Round 1 and the other person’s book will be shifted to Round 2.
This way, we keep Round 1 moving forward while still making progress into Round 2.

Dungeons & Dragons Challenge
Sign-ups are open until February 28th.
The challenge is open-ended.
The Challenge
1. Comment here to sign up, and I will create a personal challenge thread for you.
2. You will create your adventurer step by step: first by reading for a race/class, then a weapon, then a companion. Each of these will come with a one-time-use advantage to help you later in the challenge.
3. After your character is ready, you will begin the journey. At each stage, you will face a short story and a choice of tasks. The book you choose to read will determine the path your story takes.
4. To move forward, you must read for at least one of the tasks presented. You can only choose one task per branch — but you may use your earned advantages to skip or bend a rule if you wish.
5. Please make a completion post in your thread using this template:

🌄 The First Quest: The Call to AdventureThe air is crisp as dawn breaks over your quiet village. Life has always been simple here — until today. A mysterious figure in a dark cloak arrives at the village gates, carrying a scroll sealed with an unfamiliar crest. They call for brave souls to leave the safety of the village and journey into the unknown.
As you step forward, the figure hands you the scroll. Inside, it reads:
“Choose your first step wisely, for your path will shape the fate of your journey…”
⚔️ Choose Your Path (Read one book):
The Forest Path 🌲
Prompt: Read a book with green on the cover.
Outcome: You follow winding trails into the forest. Strange whispers echo among the trees — something magical is watching.
The Mountain Pass ⛰️
Prompt: Read a book over 400 pages.
Outcome: The climb is harsh, but the view is breathtaking. High above the world, you find ruins carved into the cliffs — but they’re not abandoned.
The River Road 🌊
Prompt: Read a book set in another country.
Outcome: You journey along rushing waters, where merchants and wanderers trade stories. Yet rumors of bandits make every crossing dangerous.
The Shadowed Alley 🌑
Prompt: Read a book with "shadow" or "alley" in the title.
Outcome: You slip into the backstreets of a crumbling city. Eyes follow you from the shadows, and a dangerous secret is about to be uncovered.
Stag 🦌Noble and guiding.
Advantage: “Guiding Horns” – Once, push a prompt into the future (postpone it).
