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.

Only irritated for Bogie's sake. He deserves better.

[heardyoucall]

...Bogie?

he is a little hard to get along with though

[dissonates]

[Her request makes him hesitate again, and for a moment he can't figure out whether he'd wanted to stay by her side or flee in panicked desperation. He's not ready for this. He is completely, unquestionably not ready for this conversation.

No matter what it might be, he really isn't.

But he sits.]

[redjacketthief]

Humphrey Bogart. It was sixty years ago, and media casters back then liked to give people nicknames. Bogie was his.

[heardyoucall]

[Sanzo realizes he no longer cares.]

Where am I to sleep? I believe I asked this before.

[redjacketthief]

Any one of these buildings here, as long as they're not all ready occupied. I room on the sixth floor of this one, but everyone's a little loud in here. If you like quiet? There's some empty houses around here.

I think.

[heardyoucall]

[He stands there. Surely you don't expect him to escort himself there.]

[redjacketthief]

[...he did. Sanzo seems like a smart man.]

Come on--I have to drop this stuff off anyway, but you can get an idea of how the community houses are built too.

[heardyoucall]

[He moves to follow the other, taking out another cigarette and lighting it.]

[redjacketthief]

[Lupin leads the way, chattering the entire time since the man doesn't seem like a talker.] It's six floors up, so it's a bit of a hike if you're not used to it. Fortunately, my girlfriend from home is also in this building, and I've met lots of cool people in here during my stay so far. A few of them are kiiind of warrior monks from space. You might like them.

There's also a lady on the floor above me who has some very impressive fighting skills and some really nifty armor, and some chill people on the lower levels.

[heardyoucall]

Too many stairs. I'd rather sleep on the ground floor.

[Irritated, he slowly his pace slightly, not sure at all about this.]

[redjacketthief]

[Lupin slows up in kind.] You can do that too. The apartments here are nice; three bedrooms, a sitting room, full bath. The kitchens need to be shared on every floor, but there's enough restaurants to eat out a lot of you're not much of a cook.

[He shrugs.] It's your call. No one cares where you pick as long as it's not all ready taken. Nothing wierder than walking in to a stranger making himself at home.

[heardyoucall]

[He sighs in frustration.]

Is there one on the ground floor or not, Lupin?

[turnbacktime]

Then I shall hopefully see you very soon! Where is it that you reside? What house or building and room number?

We can be nervous together! \o/

[airbound]

[She was starting to wonder when her peace and quiet would be disturbed. She shakes her head at her excited sister. She smiles, though, and shuts the book she was reading.]

Alright!

i accept your offer!

[breezing]

[ Ikki was about to take a breath to list off all the reasons why Jinora should go play with her, so instant capitulation? Totally stopped that. ]

Really? [ SQUEALING GOES HERE ] What do you want to play? Pai Sho? Oh oh oh maybe we can go find some people for air ball except there isn't a place to play I guess so maybe not that. Maybe we could play tag? I bet we could find people to play tag! Or we can be explorers and explore have you seen anything but the library I bet you haven't!

[selfhelp]

Not... that I know of? But you do get a robotic spider-suit. That's pretty cool, I think.

ikki | the legend of korra

[breezing]

[ Ikki has been in Luceti for about a week. To be honest, even a week hasn't really gotten her Up To Date on what's going on, but she's not too worried about it. There are, after all, people around to look out for her who seem to know what's going on, i.e. her elder family members. Anyway, her wings are cute and she can still airbend and life is all sunshine and flowers until further notice, okay.

Ikki's favourite place to hang out is, predictably, the playground. She's on the swingset now, and airbender kids? Can go pretty damn high on swings. ]

I'm going to go over the top!

[ aaaaaaand she does. And is thrown off the swingset. Whoops. No worries, bystanders, Ikki drifts down from the sky and lands on her feet, throwing her arms out in a ta-da! sort of way. Feel free to applaud.

Unless she landed on you, that is. ]

[breezing]

[ Ikki's giggles come out of the dark, since she was nearby playing skee-ball ("playing" meaning she was airbending the balls into the holes. Cheating what cheating?). ]

You're gonna be in trou-ble! [ Yeah, that was in sing-song. Ikki reaches up to start hanging off of Korra's arm, unless Korra dodges. ] Did you win? I think you lost! How do you win anyway, what's this game called? Have you played it before? Can I play it with you?

[spiritblocked]

I broke it, Ikki. Now no one can play. It was a stupid game anyway.

[breezing]

Can we play something else then? Can we can we can we? [ you know, once the lights come on. Uh. ] Hey, are there police here? Are you going to get arrested again? Do you like being arrested, that happens a lot. [ EXAGGERATION maybe. ]

[toosmalltoeat]

Thank you. [Vivi has to jog to keep up with Zack's long strides, and generally takes twice as long to climb over any large obstacles.]

U-um- my name's Vivi.

[spiritblocked]

No, it doesn't. I'm not, and I don't!

[breezing]

Are you suuuuuuuure? If there aren't police, are you going to blow more stuff up? [ she looks way, way too excited about this possibility. ]

[spiritblocked]

I-

I didn't blow anything up!
