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.
Hugo Fact | Ys Origin
a: Hugo is in the grocery store trying to get something to eat, but is instead staring at all the packages as if he has no idea what any of this is. He really doesn't. Or feel free to catch him using some magic to grab something off the top shelf that is out of reach.
b: At a different point in time he's just sitting on a bench in the plaza oddly staring at his wings. The way he is looking at them, one would think he finds them absolutely hideous, though they seem to just be normal black wings and from his outfit, that seems to be a color he likes. Though if your character can sense demonic powers/energy of any sort they would appear to be a garish swirl of black, red, pink, and blue and truly are indeed hideous looking.]
Scenario A
This is absolute madness! Where are they?!
no subject
Must you yell so loudly? Now I dropped these... pickle things.
[Though at least he figured out one way to open the jar.]
no subject
[He stops, and then turns to face Hugo, throwing a hand out to his side, flinging his bat wing-like cape out dramatically.]
There is not a single sardine to be had in this store!
no subject
But excuse Hugo here for not knowing what a sardine is, boy does live on a floating island basically and there's no fish, much less sardines.]
...Sardine?
1/2
[The question is almost startled. How could anyone not know about them?]
Poor soul.
no subject
Then allow me to tell you the value of this super-food!
no subject
Just a simple what a sardine is would suffice. I don't need some long winded crazy monologue.
[And just excuse Hugo while he goes ahead and uses magic to pick up the shards of glass from the broken jar.]
no subject
[He watches as the shards of glass float up with magic, but he doesn't seem bothered by this.]
Do not bother with the rest of it. Prinny! [A squat, blue demonic looking penguin looks over from one of the other isles when he's called for.] Scrub up this mess right away.
[The bird-like demon throws him a salute and quickly moves to mop up the pickle juice with a rag produced from its pouch.]
no subject
But when the prinny appears, Hugo starts looking wary. It's like he expects it to attack him. He calms a bit when he sees it is just cleaning the mess up, but still seems to be wary.]
...That's not going to try to attack either of us, is it?
no subject
[The Prinny immediately drops what it was doing and salutes, looking quite terrified.]
Y-y-yes sir, Lord Val, dood!
[And with that, he smiles.]
Glad to hear it. And Prinny, leave this man alone. ...He'd probably kill you anyway, looking at him.
no subject
Only if attacked. I have only seen creatures summoned to try and kill me and one of those creatures turned on its summoner.
no subject
Hmm. That sounds like your typical arrogant human who vastly underestimates what they are getting themselves into by messing with the darkness.
no subject
They most definitely were all oddballs.
no subject
Oddball isn't the term I would use, but I suppose it is fitting enough. ...But the look on your face tells me you've made some mistakes of your own.
[His tone is actually not... that accusatory. Simply matter-of-fact.]
no subject
N-No, nothing like that!
aaaaaa
How on earth did you do that?!
no subject
It was just a use of magic, a rather simple one at that.
no subject
no subject
Words aren't needed for the magic I use. I merely focus on what I intend and use my power.
no subject
no subject
no subject
How did you learn it? What was your method?
no subject
For us it is a skill that comes naturally. To us it is no different than learning to wield a sword. Or to read a book. Father is the one who trained me.
no subject
I had to acquire most of the magic I know. Of course, it requires a natural skill of magic - [She shrugs her shoulders in a sense of pride.] - but it means little without the proper lessons and guidelines.
