Creating Simultaneous Story Arcs Using Constraint Based Narrative Structure

A nonlinear story can be generated by the interactivities between story and an author using the interactive storytelling system. Unlike a play or movie in which audiences can watch one scene at a time and then watch next scene, various events can simultaneously happen at different places in the real world, and even those events performed by characters may dramatically affect the flow of the story. This paper suggests Constraint Based narrative structure to create such story, known as “Simultaneous Story Arcs”, and “Multi Viewpoint” to simultaneously lead the direction of the stories in each place.
