Create 'em. Also, in order to avoid hypocrisy on this point, I've now named two characters in my new update, and one of them even has a physical description. Also an organisation is described. A veritable riot of infodump.

Cataclysm:
So we just make up a random story?

Sixth Monarchist:
Yes. It's like one of those chain novels, only you don't have to take up where someone else left off, or even, for that matter, where you left off. It does mean having the mother of all editing tasks to yank it all into continuity, but that's part of the plan.

Basically, I'm taking the opposite approach to the Shifting World project, which sorta just died in large part because people couldn't agree on things such as magic systems and mythical creatures, et cetera. Rather than imposing a framework and then writing a story, the idea is to write a story and then impose a framework.
