Age of fable is an online gamebook style adventure which roles all it's own
stats.
You can find it at http://www.apolitical.info/webgame/index.php?mode=0
The Chronicles of Arborell is an attempt by someone to do online something
similar to what Tokeen did, create an entire world with it's unique history,
races and magic.
thus far there are several gamebooks, as well as quite a lot of background
material to read. You do need to use the gma dice program, but as I said,
it's imho well worth it for the quality of the writing and the games.
Oh, and there's a special new random dungeon gamebook in developement as
well.
You can find the chronicles at
http://www.arborell.com/
Oh Btw, I've been updating audiogames.net with entries for online gamebooks
which use html, ---- so it's always worth looking there in the gamebooks
catagory as well.

One thing about age of fable is the more you play, the better you get.
I've got a saved game now with a character who started out with 10-15 in
all stats accept roguery, with extra points in streetwise, heroism and
healing.
After finishing all game quests with her (particularly visiting the desert
temple with the many shells), I've got all her stats up to 18 pluss, ----
accept roguery.
As I said, I disagree about requiring a program for stat management, ----
afterall, back in the 80's when gamebooks were most popular, people just
used dice and paper.
I have in fact got a friend who collects old gamebooks, and have played
through a couple with him using the Gma dice program and a word document
to keep stats.
While I agree it's less convenient, imho it's worth it, ----- especially
for gamebooks like project.aon and the chronicles of arborell.
Just my thoughts.
