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.

Actually? You do, at some point. Assuming we're from the same Earth. I think I'm from your future.

[Which... might be a stretch, but hey, he can hope for the best. Spiderman makes a pretty badass Avenger.]

[airbound]

Alchemy? What's that?

[snikting]

Easy, bub.

[Fair warning. Wolverine is not someone you want to see in a blind rage.]

[airbound]

Yeah, this one has a lot of books that we didn't have on the island.

(sorry about the lateness! i lost this tag)

Sometimes I forget you're a boy.

[Yes, she's going to heat up her pizza. That's the girl way to do it, apparently.]

[markofthewise]

It's a type of science built on the concept of equivalent exchange. Sort of a magic in its own ways. Through the use of a transmutation circle, an alchemist can rapidly change raw materials into another shape. This can be for simple things like, say, turning a bunch of boards and nails into a house. Or if you're really good, you can use it to rapidly change the environment around you to attack. Almost like bending, kind of. Only it's all based on science.

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

[ maybe. she also reads other stuff... but it's not something she'd admit to cyborg. better take that than the alternative. ]

Yeah, okay. Have fun with your boy game.

...You know, Cyborg. Doesn't ordinary stankball seem a little low-tech to you?

[crabletteer]

[that of course gets a good reaction.]

Yes, I'd love to meet them, Richard.

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

That's fair. Most civilians in my world probably aren't quite, either.

[azarathmetrionzinthos]

... Yes.

[ "but what it really is is personal," she means to convey. standoffish as she is. ]

[thebellthatbinds]

A Night Arrow... [The term is unfamiliar, and the description doesn't exactly clarify things all that much either.]

You don't feel Dead to me. How can you be from the land of the Dead and yet be alive?

[nikori]

[He gives her an enthusiastic nod. Tea and a bite to eat is always nice, and seeing as how Chizuru's been cleaning for who-knows-how-long, it could serve well for her too.]

If it's fine by you, then yeah, sure! That'd be great.

[alloys]

I'm not saying I won't--exactly. Just let me have a little free reign over their design, and we're in business.

[Come on. They'd be customizable to a tee.]

Except for the part where it just keeps going. And never stops. I don't need a desk toy to remind me of Newton's Laws.

[quippage]

[Ah, right. The whole taunting bit is for the baddies, not the guys with metal claws that aren't going to attack.]

I hear you, I hear you.

[quippage]

The future? [That's kind of a stretch, and Spider-Man's definitely taking that with a grain of salt. But it's a cool thought.] ... Do I get a Spider-Jetpack?

[echotaker]

[He feels his cheeks heat up.]

Oh, come on. We barely know each other. Let's not start by talking about romping, as fun as it is. What kinds of stuff do you do here when you're not getting barcoded and poked?

[fleurdesel]

It's purely a speculative discussion about romping. Hypothetical. Made entirely without true intent to romp.

[She snorts a soft laugh and settles back into the grass.]

I work. At the clinic, or the nightclub at the end of the day. We've a library, a school, and there is always the battle dome.

[heardyoucall]

[Sanzo pauses, then breaks the flow of conversation.]

...you really do look like a chimp, you know. Is that on purpose?

[ps3pirate]

[Powerless or not, Patty is determined to go down with a fight! If... she is indeed going down. Alexei is being suspiciously docile right now. Either way, she scoffs loudly.]

That's none of your business, ya know! You're supposed to be dead as a doornail! [And flat as a flapjack, but that one's a little too morbid. Let's not say that out loud.]

[echotaker]

Because I'm not from there, originally. It's just where I work. It's my job.

[relations]

Afuu.. Miki's much too tired for this..

[ Miki grumbles a bit and rubs her eyes as she wanders into the tiny little village, her (former) clothing and journal thing in hand, being dragged along.

She walks slower and slower each step, transitioning into a trudge, and eventually just halting. She's near a building now, so she leans against it and lowers herself down to the floor, covering herself lightly with her clothes. Within seconds, she's snoring.. Could this house possibly be yours? ]

[thebellthatbinds]

[Now that she can understand. With a sigh she relaxes, sitting back a little.]

Ah...so you are like me then.

[handing]

Free reign. You're...well. You're you, and you expect me to give you free reign over something I need to be stable, and not break, and not break everything I put on it when it does whatever you make it do, which will probably be completely unnecessary.

[You see her concern here, Tony. Mostly it's that last bit.]

It's not a toy, it's a kinetic sculpture. And the fact that it is kinetic is what makes it soothing.

[redjacketthief]

[deadpan:]

...why does everyone default to monkeys?

[heardyoucall]

Your hairstyle. You can't deny it gives your a distinctly monkey-like look.
