A robust collaborative writing bot and story relay game.
Round Robin StoryBot runs collaborative relay-style stories where writers take turns contributing entries. When one writer finalizes their turn, the next participant is automatically selected and notified.
Multiple stories can be run concurrently, and there are many configuration options available:
Turn Order
- 🎲 Random — Next writer chosen completely at random each turn.
- 🔄 Round Robin — Rotates randomly, but no one repeats until everyone has had a turn.
- 📋 Fixed Order — Writers take turns in a fixed sequence based on join order.
Turn Settings
- Set turn length in hours, as well as the timing for when a reminder will be sent via DM or mention, depending on the user's preference. When their time is up, the turn moves on to the next writer automatically (unless the story is in Slow Mode).
Story Mode
- 🟢 Normal — Writers get a private or public thread for each turn with no limit to entry length. Images can be uploaded to include with the story.
- 🟣 Quick — Writers submit entries, up to 4,000 characters, via
/story write. - 🔵 Slow - Like Normal mode, but with no time limit on turns, just optional reminders to keep the story going.
Control Panels
- Admins and story creators can change story settings, add metadata like rating or tags, and review suggested tags that writers have submitted.
- Users can easily view and manage their stories, and the output can be read in Discord or exported in an HTML format suitable for posting on sites like Archive of Our Own.
Run /storyadmin setup after install to configure your story feed channel ID, private media channel ID, and Round Robin Admin role name. Restricted channels for NSFW stories and images can also be configured for non-18+ servers.
