From 2004 to 2019, my friends & I played the rpg "Keep the Dream Alive." The world was devastated by a virus that killed adults & left the kids to rebuild society. The game is based on the New Zealand show "The Tribe"--and we've taken its parameters to new heights. CHYNA'S CLOSET has ideas, thoughts & moments from game, show & life. All are welcome to our memories here. The Tribe still lives in our hearts!

Fun 'n Games! Part-1
A recent game poll asked an interesting question: "If you werethe Master Plotter, how would you guide the game-story?" Then a variety of wild, crazy, maybe impossible scenarios were laid out for people to choose. The answers were interesting, to say the least. Power & Chaos were very much in evidence. Here's part-one of how our players voted. The Grimms challenge the Misfits -- tribal war!This scenario was VERY popular, kind of dissing the idea that our players are tired of war & want a bout of peace for a change. So you know, the Grimms are a new tribe on the scene. They run a gambling den off Industrial Way. And the Misfits? Ah, popular tribe, this one. The game's first tribe & still its most well-drawn and interactive.
Prince uses his deputies to control the city. Some definite interest here. Prince is one of the game's 1st characters. He's been through a lot of changes through 4-1/2 seasons, including being popularly elected as Fort River's 1st Sheriff.He's also a "tributary" of the Warlord Seth, who contributed to his deputy force.
Hawk becomes the new River Rat leader.This seems to be a popular favorite. In-game, the River Rats tribe has been led by NPCs (non-player characters) since its first leader Chyna died at the end of Season-1. Now that the tribe is remaining in Fort River -- and since its current leader Jean has just been killed -- the election of a new strong leader seems to be in order.
Arianna & Scarecrow get married. Ah, this ranks among THE MOST POPULAR of the scenarios. Guess if you have war, you gotta have chaos! Haha! Lady Arianna has been the de facto leader of the Misfits almost since the beginning. Her lover died during the last AK battle. She's mourned him, carried on, and recently delivered his baby girl to the game. Now Scarecrow's come on the scene -- sensitive, quasi-mysterious, and apparently totally devoted to our lovely Misfit. Chyna adds her vote to this one -- our gameworld hasn't had it's first wedding yet. Maybe it's time?
