the luceti test drive meme

Reserves have just opened and apps are right around the corner. But are you still on the fence about any of your would-be characters? Well -- here is your chance to take them out for a spin!

▣ TAG IN or reply to others with characters you would like to test drive for Luceti.
▣ ONLY add top-level comments for characters who are not yet in the game. You're free to reply to others with Luceti characters (because that's half the fun) but remember that the whole point of this meme is for potential characters.
▣ PLEASE do not post duplicates of characters already in Luceti.
▣ GO AHEAD and give us a brief description of your character in the top-level comment, along with one or two possible ways to run into your test-driven character around town.
▣ YOU MAY use these threads for your first person samples on your app -- just make sure that you link threads of a goodly length (i.e., threads with at least ten comments from your character).

Need a little help getting started? Remember, you needn't post here as though your character is still brand-spankin' new. It'll probably be more fun for all involved if this isn't a simple dress rehearsal for showing up. Here are a few scenario ideas:

o1. The grocery store is out of food. What do you do?
o2. Wing injury! Call for help or stagger your way to one of our fine clinics.
o3. It's a busy evening at Good Spirits, one of Luceti's local bars. Do you dare try the drink specials?
o4. Have a talent for playing music? Try Cloud Nine's open mic night!
o5. Beach party? Snow party? Leaf-raking party? Gardening party? YOU DECIDE.

Okay. So my examples are pretty non-exciting. But they're really just suggestions. I'm POSITIVE you kids can come up with more creative things.

Above all? HAVE FUN.

--!!! Lee!!


Lee uh... ((bends over to look at him; oh god don't tell me he's dead!?!??!))

[maldoran]

To...to privacy! And to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. You lot did get that one correct. I quite like it. But my point is that the pursuit of this happiness most often requires a certain...lack of interference.

[ it all boils down to: ] It's simply not fair to get between a girl and her gains, no matter how ill-gotten!

It's fiiiine XD

[thebellthatbinds]

It's nice to meet you Raz. You are...new here, right?

:3

[happygokori]

Cyborg! [:D :D :D :D :D ]

This food is not for us to consume alone! I wish to create something for my dear friends- both new and old! While I could not locate Tamaranian ingredients, I believe this unique combination of earth flavors will result in a similar taste!

[and come on, SHE'S SO EXCITED how can you say no :3]

[keyandstar]

Oh! Well, King Touchstone is the first to sit on the throne for... well, two hundred years. He regained it after you... Well, after someone called Sabriel defeated one of the greater dead. Kerrigor.

[ Why doesn't she know this? Perhaps this Sabriel is the one who os from the past. Or maybe she's from the future, though it is disheartening to think that the kingdom will be without ruler once more. ]

[niceguypose]

[Lee rolls over on the bench. His eyes are closed, but there are visible signs that he is breathing. He could be asleep... or is he?]

[arcadianvampire]

[Reluctantly, Val inevitably makes it worse by gently, and hesitantly, consoling the poor girl by stroking the back of her head. It's rare he'd feel such sympathy for a human, but whomever this Hom person was must've been very, very important to her.

But he can't give the girl false hope. It wouldn't be right.]

...I believe you have mistaken me for someone else.

[admiralpellew]

[he frowned at the torrent of words. The stranger was right about that, at least. It was a lot to take in, and he wasn't truly inclined to believe most of what had just rushed out. Really, this following his unusual arrival was enough to truly make him question the reality of the whole mess.

He can't process it all, but his mind filed away the details for future reference. Wings and pants, apparently common. Not dead. Luceti. Branded. Trapped. It would be sorted through later, if a moment of relative peace could be found. Meanwhile, his jaw juts slightly before he addresses the approaching man]

You imagine correctly, sir, but you'll forgive me if I'm not yet inclined to leave this place. Particularly not before I know the whereabouts of my men.

[sthenic]

((Unsure stare.... But eventually she straightens up, sighs, looks around, and mumbles to herself.))

Geez, wish I had a way to snap him out of this... ((She leans backward a moment, unsure if MAYBE she saw one of their sensei, but by the looks of things.... no... alas.

So she finds herself a seat near Lee and sits until he's awake again. Maybe.... Neji... or Tenten.... will walk up and know what to do. Yeah that's something that could happen.

Eyes Lee a second.)) I shouldn't be surprised though, huh?

[howsmashing]

[Well. THAT is going to ping a certain giant green man's interest.]

...you any good? [At cooking he means.]

[admiralpellew]

[The admiral could remain calm in the face of many things. It was a necessary attribute, after all, in a time of war and one he was quite adept at.

So far, he was managing admirably well with the wings and clothes and the bewildering nonsensical explanations he was hearing.

He did, however, draw the line at ghosts.

His eyes widen as he turns to face the shout, only to spot a familiar face. A familiar face that he would never expect to see again, this side of death.]

Kennedy?!

[there's a muttered oath before he takes a single step back, instantly defensive] What trickery is this?

[piealchemist]

H-Huh?

[... Wait, that's not Hom's voice. Not at all. So, Rorona does the one thing she should've done in the first place.

Actually gets a good look at him.]

Oh ... [Wait, she's hugging a guy she doesn't know who--] AHH!

[She immediately lets go and takes a step back.]

S-sorry! Um, it ... seems I really did mistaken you for someone else. So um ... sorry for that! Now I'm really embarrassed ...

[She's trying to keep an upbeat tone about it, but she does seem pretty disappointed anyway. More disappointed than sorry, at least. This guy doesn't seem to mind much, anyway.]

[Video]

[thebellthatbinds]

[Ah hah, please don't mind while Sabriel stares at you in silence for a good moment or two. Thanks to Luke Skywalker, Sabriel had become aware that her endeavor to defeat Kerrigor would succeed but she didn't know anything about what would happen in the world after that.]

Touchstone reclaimed his throne? And I really...Kerrigor has been banished?

[simplestgift]

[That makes Archie clench and unclench his hands, taking in a breath he doesn't use for several seconds as he trips over the words, eyes blinking quickly.]

I should...should very much like to learn that myself, sir.

[niceguypose]

[No response yet; Lee just stirs slightly.]

[arcadianvampire]

It's nothing.

[Well, except the tears on his clothes. Well, those will dry eventually. He crouches down to take his sword back up and sheathes it for the moment.]

I heard an explosion. I see you're not hurt, but what happened here?

Good. Excellent. Now I have all of you.

[cannoneer]

[His heart says yes, but his stomach says "Oh god why?"]

Uh huh. Most people couldn't try combining tomatoes, cinnamon, and eggs together.

/o/

[useful_goggles]

Yeah. I've only been here a couple of days or so. Still getting the hang of things.

What about you? Are you new, too?

[piealchemist]

Explosion?

[What explo-- OH.]

Ohhh, that explosion. Well, you see, I was just doing my alchemy synthesis, as usual, when I thought I saw something outside the window! So when I looked, I might have put a little too much powder into my cauldron, and ...

[She trails off, looking around the room. Nothing's on fire or anything, but even the ceiling is stained with soot.]

This is going to take forever to clean again.

[Video]

[keyandstar]

He's been gone for... something like nineteen years now.

[ So not from the past then. Or the future. This has to be Sabriel. Ergo, this... has to be her sister. Oh my. Lirael... isn't sure if she should mention that or not. ]

[admiralpellew]

[his eyes narrowed uncertainly. It sounded like Kennedy. Looked like Kennedy. But that surely meant nothing.

He suddenly couldn't help wondering if the wings truly did mean he'd reached an afterlife of some sort, though he couldn't imagine how that would have come about. There'd been no battle that he could remember that could result in such a thing.

There's a moment of silence where he considers his options, before giving the boy a curt nod]

Very well, Lieutenant. Suppose we skip the part where this is impossible and attempt to make some sense of the situation?

[arcadianvampire]

Alchemy? A human performing alchemy? ...I thought that practice fell out of favor centuries ago.

[...Humans practicing Alchemy. That was a better time. A lot better than the modern era where they create their own monsters...]

[simplestgift]

It...clearly isn't impossible, sir. I've been here a year and a half now, and quite alive.

[He knows, because he's died once since then. And come back. Again.]

[admiralpellew]

Indeed.

[that frown deepens as he clasps his hands behind his back, solemnly considering] A year and a half, you say?

[simplestgift]

...Yes, sir. [This is...sort of embarrassing, with Pellew half-naked and all. He sweeps his own jacket off his shoulders.] Here, sir.

[Not that it will close, but it's something.]
