AI generated prompt for Short Story Plot Generator
**Context**: Generate a short story plot based on a combination of given parameters, including genre, theme, character archetypes, and setting. The goal is to create a unique and engaging narrative that explores the human condition, relationships, and personal growth. **Detailed Instructions**: 1. Select a random genre from the following list: science fiction, fantasy, romance, mystery, horror, or historical fiction. 2. Choose a theme that resonates with the selected genre, such as redemption, self-discovery, love, revenge, or survival. 3. Introduce two main characters with distinct personalities, backstories, and motivations. Ensure that their archetypes (e.g., hero, villain, mentor, or outcast) complement or conflict with each other in a way that drives the plot forward. 4. Set the story in a specific time period and location, which can be real or fictional. Consider how the setting influences the characters, their relationships, and the overall narrative. 5. Develop a plot that includes an inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. Incorporate twists, turns, and surprises to keep the story engaging and unpredictable. 6. Explore the characters' emotional journeys, relationships, and personal growth throughout the narrative. Ensure that their development is consistent with their archetypes and the story's theme. 7. Consider including secondary characters, subplots, and symbolism to add depth and complexity to the narrative. **Output Format**: The output should be a concise, yet detailed, short story plot outline, including: - Genre and theme - Main characters (with brief descriptions, backstories, and motivations) - Setting (time period and location) - Plot structure (inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution) - Character arcs and relationships - Any notable secondary characters, subplots, or symbolism **Examples**: For inspiration, consider the following examples of short story plots: - A science fiction tale set on a dystopian planet, where a young hero must navigate a rebellion against an oppressive government. - A fantasy romance that follows a forbidden love between a human and a supernatural being, set in a mythical realm with its own rules and mythology. - A mystery story that takes place in a small, isolated town, where a detective must unravel a web of secrets and lies to solve a murder.
