I train neural networks to write humor by giving them datasets that they have to mimic. You can check out my work at lewisandquark.tumblr.com Recently I trained a neural network to write Dungeons and Dragons spells, and got fun results such as "Hail to the Dave", "Charm of the Cods", and "Curse Clam".
Recently I asked for readers to submit the names of their D&D characters so we could find out what happens when the neural network tries to generate character names. The response was great, a few thousand submitted within the first day - I'll definitely be using this dataset! (If you want to contribute to the character names project, go to this form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSerLszjv3H5ER4-mrV-0RO9beOAvfC2eqtqGU_izcYpNe5boA/viewform )
We're going to build a dataset of D&D character backstories. If we get enough, researchers will be able to use them for training a new generation of storytelling AI.
So, use the form below to tell the neural networks about your character's backstory. Or about your friend's character's backstory. You can submit as many of these as you want. No length limit - in fact, details are encouraged. For science!
Gillsing: Interesting fact about a movie that put me to sleep the first two times I tried to watch it at RPG cons. The third time I managed to stay awake, and was disappointed. Everyone seemed to like it so much. But apparently it was not for me. Story of my life.

Provinto: I was thinking about asking something about GLOG, but then I realized something: It says OSR on the can, but it tastes like Hippy Game

akavidar: And it's so hard to get rid of the taste of hippy.
