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.

Hey, I'm already teaching Twinkletoes. What's one more student to take on?

It's in the center of the village square, there should be a map in the journal if you need it.

[i_am_not_cute]

[That stops Pao-Lin in her tracks, and the smile instantly drops from her face. Suddenly she feels a little stupid for just rushing at him like that.]

Oh. You...really don't remember being here before, at all?

[She got lucky with Toph, really.]

B!

[hastheknowhow]

[Why hello fellow Brit - have a witch sitting nearby who is very, very interested in that specimen on your table. In fact, it looks just like the kind of thing that might contain something she's interested in.]

Excuse me, but, what is that book you have there?

[luredbypower]

[Hugo still looks somewhat wary. Only friendly demon he knew of were the Roos, but they were transformed, though this Prinny creature does have the similar cuteness rather than being creepy.]

Only if attacked. I have only seen creatures summoned to try and kill me and one of those creatures turned on its summoner.

[admiralpellew]

[have a scoff.

Horatio Hornblower. Proud. Defensive. Brave. All too gullible.]

It certainly is.

And yet, it seems you've handled it as admirably as could be expected. [he cast a sideways glance at the captain] At least you haven't chosen to dress like a pirate.

[doubleblades]

[Now he's questioning this girl's sanity. Had he been here before? Then again he had heard mentions of it, though he didn't quite believe it. But it would also explain why this girl knows him. Taking some time to think, he pieces the puzzle together. Well, he doesn't think he could be mistaken for anyone else, so he decides to answer her question.]

No, I'm afraid not. This is the first time I have ever come to such a place, at least in my memories.

[lostinmyway]

[This is okay! A surprising number of her friends are perma-linefaced, so she's used to it. They do have their hormones under control, however, so that would be new.]

Yes, that's right. I'm getting groceries for Fenimore!

[captainhornblower]

[He gives the faintest of smiles but tries to hide it.]

No, sir. I wouldn't dream of it.

[hastheknowhow]

[Why yes that floating does attract Miss Price.

But she is not saying anything right now. Not yet. Saying something immediately would be rude, and she's already done that once.

No, instead she is just observing you out of the corner of her very wide-open eye... taking a longer look the more the does.]

[luredbypower]

[Bluntness is fine, Hugo prefers to get to the point as well when dealing with people. Though it is odd to him to see such a reaction to magic. It's pretty much a part of everyday life for him. Not having the ability if the oddity.]

It was just a use of magic, a rather simple one at that.

[losthorn]

Yes, he would. I wonder if he's here somewhere...

[luredbypower]

[He's definitely sick of getting soaked, wasn't all that long ago when he had to trudge through those flooded floors of a tower.] Either that or sitting by a fountain here is a hazard for those who wish to remain dry.

[powdersup]

[Taking the bottle - sweet. She'll take that and smile, great .

Okay, outside is good. She nods and follows the other girl out there]

Alright.

[zumo]

[The reason for this is Soujis aren't the only ones with thick skulls. And right now the thoughts bouncing around this particular thick skull sound something like this:

Fuck. No. No. No. Fuck NO. Goddammit!

Basically, apologies to those of you in the store who can read minds because Hijikata is insanely uncomfortable right now. And this new Souji being like this close to his face is not helping matters at all. Not even bothering to hide his disgust as he takes a couple steps back.

Now for the clearly logical response: Lash out. Yes.]

You'd better not be trying to fuck with me.

[Or Souji may find out exactly how "adorable" this Toshizo can be when he's mutilating someone, if you catch the drift.]

[i_am_not_cute]

Mmm...I see. [Well, there's nothing to be done about the matter but keep moving forward. This news isn't going to change that she's a friendly person towards nearly anyone. Pao-Lin brightens with a smile.] I guess this must be weird for you then, huh? I'm Pao-Lin -- we were friends here before.

we finally thread!!

[wan]

[ as much as he wants to pick up nekoshizo, Saitou will refrain from doing so in the face of the actual vice-commander.

he spares the cat a single glance, before returning his gaze to Hijikata. ]

Do you require assistance? [ you look like you're having troubles... ]

[scarfed]

[She smiled. It seems genuine as well. Maybe things weren't as bad as he was assuming. He clears his throat as he puts the rack back where it was, taking the hat from it and then walks over to her.]

You could use something nice from me once in a while too. And I can actually afford this. [He tries to keep things light, attempted humor to test the waters. Because he still wasn't sure what was up with Asami the last few weeks.]

[action]

[losthorn]

Yes, I did. I'm still adjusting to everything. How about you, Eiko?

Abel Ramos //OC

[inburningshadows]

[He's toying somewhat with a drink, running a large finger around the rim idly as his gaze drifts across his surroundings. He picked out a table in the corner, ever the curious one as he is content to just watch people mill by.

Abel is hard to really miss, even with his chosen location. He's broad shouldered, donning a cassock one would see on a priest and wearing his long hair in a braid.]

[niceguypose]

[Within the next few minutes, however, he starts to open his eyes, greeted by a pounded headache.]

Ugh. [Pause] S-Sakura...san?

[hastheknowhow]

[Basil, you say? Pff, easy stuff.]

Basil is a dry, strong-scented herb that can be cooked, albeit carefully, for many dishes. You can use it either fresh or dry, but it loses most of its sweet flavour once it's cooked. It's primarily used for pesto.

[hastheknowhow]

I am one who can use magic. [Not very well, but nonetheless...] Summoning is something I have practiced, though it is not my forte. But I am afraid I haven't heard of "eidolons". What are those, may I ask?

[admiralpellew]

I'm glad to see all has not fallen to insanity.

[His chin raised slightly] Though I must admit, Captain, your hospitality leaves much to be desired...unless you've a purpose in having me stand here in less than my underthings for the whole day.

[deathsdoctor]

[Correction. Very difficult. ... and British. The man was British - that accent. Oh joy. Not another Navy man from that world and era. Law's brow creases, perplexed. What the hell was he doing that got their noses out of joint at the slightest comment? Because it seemed to happen often during the very rare times he spoke with them, save for Admiral Norrington.

That lot he just did not understand.

However he would stay calm and polite. The other man would do and respond as he pleased; Law was his own master and he would keep his dignity in this.]

I apologize, Admiral, for any offense I caused. [He is only trying to help, and he is most certainly not obligated to that, no? He could very well leave the other man high and dry on the sands.] ... I only ask because I know the sailors here and might be able to direct you to the people you seek.

[Hopefully that was respectful enough for the other man. As it was, Law figured he had gone far beyond what a typical Grand Line captain, pirate or Marine, would be willing to extend in courtesy.

The man wasn't Grand Line though. Did not know anything about their customs. And that he would keep in mind.]
