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.

Jinora | Legend of Korra | /so nervous

[airbound]

[Jinora's been here for a while. This place reminds her a lot of Air Temple Island. So quiet and peaceful, for the most part.

She's found her favorite place in the little town, though. The library. All these books, and stories waiting to be read. The ten year old's currently sitting at one of the tables reading a book. There's also a small stack of books sitting on the table.]

/edits this for bad uncling

[markofthewise]

[Sokka was here for his usual alchemy research. And while yes, he was getting used to all these people from his future, it was still weird. Jinora was no exception. After all. He was like... her uncle or something. Great uncle. So as much as he felt like he had to be friendly and doting, it was really weird.]

Uh. Hey Ikki. What are you reading?

[Okay so maybe he hadn't got their names straight yet.]

Oh Sokka. xD

[airbound]

[Jinora has found it strange, to meet younger versions of the people she's been told about. But meeting them in person? Is even better than the stories.

Jinora looks up from her book. Oh hey, it's uncle Sokka.]

I'm Jinora. Ikki's my sister.

[markofthewise]

[... oh right. Okay. Ikki was the loud one. Check.]

Uh, right. Sorry about that.

[airbound]

[Right, Jinora's the quieter one. Unless it's talking about cute guys.

She nods to his apology, and lowers the book, leaving it open.]

It's fine. [Oh right, what she was reading.]

It's about these people in an air ship, [Hot air balloon] and they're going around the world in it.

[markofthewise]

Really? What's it called?

[It's an interesting subject. Since, you know, he helped invent those.]

[savedtheworld]

[Aang makes sure to check in on his granddaughter at the library around the same time every afternoon. He looks over towards her table with a bright grin.]

Hey Jinora! What're you reading today?

/picks random book that popped into head.

[airbound]

[Oh hey, it's young Grandpa Aang!]

Hi Grandpa Aang. [She grins, and closes the book she was reading.]

Oh it's a great story. It's about these people who are traveling around the world in an air ship. [Hot air balloon, but close enough]

[savedtheworld]

[He smiles brightly at being called Grandpa. It was an easy adjustment, considering how any weirdness about having a granddaughter a few years younger than him was instantly overwhelmed by his joy of... well, having an Airbending granddfaughter. He steps closer to take a look.]

Really? That sounds real interesting! It's like how we traveled around the world on Appa!

[airbound]

[It's definitely strange calling a guy, not much older than yourself, grandpa. She's heard stories from her dad of Aang. But to actually meet him is something she'll never forget.]

Yeah. We have Oogi, but usually only daddy flies with him and not very far. [Usually to Republic city and back] We did go to the Southern Water tribe, though.

[savedtheworld]

[Aang wonders why a bison's name sounds oddly like the word Sokka uses when disgusted by his closeness with Katara.]

I'm sure you'll fly around a lot more when you get older! You can have lots of great adventures.

idk whether you want to play them out as knowing the relationship or not so have a neutral tag!

[markofthebrave]

[So the library is not a place where Katara usually goes, but she's in need a of a certain book for a certain someone...]

Works for me! I can be flexable. o/

[airbound]

[And man are there ever so many books to look at here. But right now, Jinora's not looking at a book. Well, she has one with her. But at the moment Katara's got her attention.

She looks vaguely familiar.]

\o/

[markofthebrave]

[...that sense when someone is s t a r i n g.

Katara glances over her shoulder.

...Are those... no.]

Hello, can I help you?

[airbound]

[Oops, she was caught. She'll look back to her book, at least until Katara addresses her. Then she'll look up, looking a little apologetic.]

Oh, you just reminded me of someone I know.

[airmentor]

[Oh there she is. She seems to be spending more and more time at the library these days. Guess he shouldn't discourage her from reading, but he does wish she would go socialize more.]

Someone is getting a lot of reading done today.

[Oh and he isn't using his inside library voice. Oops.]

[airbound]

[But so many books.

But hey, it's daddy, he gets her full attention. She'll give him a smile, keeping her own voice quiet while loud enough to hear.]

Hi daddy. I found a really good story.

[She's not late for dinner, is she?]

[hastheknowhow]

[Turns out someone much older but just as literary is settling herself on that same table with a much larger pile of books. She is wasting no time in getting started on her reading, snatching the first book from the top and enthusiastically poring through the pages.]

[airbound]

[Jinora's stack would be larger, but she's ten and can carry only so many.

She looks up as someone else sits at her table. She eyes the stack the woman has, plus the first one she picks up.]

Is it good?

[hastheknowhow]

[She looks up - oh my, there is a child at her seat and she didn't even notice. Well... she guesses there's no harm in answering.]

Yes, very interesting; this library has quite the vast array of knowledge.

[airbound]

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

/also nervous

[breezing]

[ Quiet? Welp, can't be having that, Jinora. As it happens, Ikki was looking for her sister - and breezes in, automatically throwing her arms around Jinora's neck and hanging off her back while nosily leaning over her shoulder. PERSONAL SPACE WHAT PERSONAL SPACE? ]

Jinoraaaaaa, come play!

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!

\o/

[airbound]

[And here goes the ear plugging at the squealing.]

Let's go exploring. They have lots of places here.
