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.

[WAIT WHAT OH NO gurlfran this is Pao-Lin's favorite tracksuit, whhhhyyyyy]

Eugh! [She flinches away with a frown after Pascal wipes the gunk on her clothes, looking down on it with disgust. She can take a lot of things that maybe "typical" girls can't, but this is pretty damn disgusting. Plus, her favorite tracksuit fglakjflkdajlfkjadlkgjadgdag. She can't even wipe it off with water from the fountain because Pascal replaced the water with chocolate.] This is pretty gross...is it going to come off? [It damn well better, sob.]

[technobabbling]

[Whaaat guuurl you don't like it? But it goes so well with your hair!]

You really think so? It's pretty neat if you ask me, and it smells so cool! If you really don't like it though I don't mind takin' it back.

[And so she does take it back, grabbing the blob of goo and yanking it away. There's still a few green spots here and there, and of course the smell, but at least there isn't a giant gooey gross blob of who knows what there anymore!]

Ta-da, just like that!

[i_am_not_cute]

[MY HAIR IS PRETTIER THAN THAT

I mean. Not that I. Care if my hair is pretty or anything.

BUT MY POINT STILL STANDS

Pao-Lin stares at the green gunk in Pascal's hand, wrinkling her nose. Geez, the smell's almost bad enough to make her eyes tear up. Isn't the other girl bothered by the smell...?]

Th-thanks. You should probably throw that away... [Or bury it six feet under.]

[technobabbling]

Yeah, probably! [HAHA no, back into her pocket it goes.

BUT GURL your hair would be like.

20% cooler.

If you had white streaks in it. JSYK.]

Who knows what sorta stuff this gloop can do. Maybe I can use it to burn holes through things! Or leave it in Cheria's bed and hide until she finds it and freaks out all over the place.

[Cheria would love this. No doubt about it.]

Anyhoo, it's probably time to test this chocolate. No point in going through all the trouble of making a choco-fountain if it tastes like bleh!

[i_am_not_cute]

[you're planning to bleach Pao-Lin's hair with that moldy gunk from hell aren't you

aren't you]

Ah, you know Cheria? [Yeah, that's the thing Pao-Lin's fixating on at the moment, which is weird because HOLY FRIG A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN. Then again, she can't taste anything at the moment (hello death penalty), so it might be useless to her. But maybe it's magical and she might actually be able to taste it! IDK, hope springs eternal, sob.]

[technobabbling]

[... nnnnooooooo that would be silly.

andnowyouknowsotheplanisruined GURL SAY WHAAAT--]

Yuh-huh, I know her! She makes the most killer banana pies ever. She's also a liiittle on the chubby side. [But shhh don't tell her that.]

[i_am_not_cute]

[actually the timing of your comment is hilarious because I'd been recently contemplating doodling Amarcian Pao-Lin for reasons unrelated to this thread]

Really? She didn't seem chubby to me. [Not that Pao-Lin cares much about that sort of thing. She thinks Cheria's really pretty, at any rate.] Is she from your world, then?

[technobabbling]

[well obviously that is a fantastic idea and you should totally go through with it.]

Y'sure? Take a good long look at those love handles of hers the next time you see her, you can't miss 'em. [Sorry Cheria. You still look great, really.] Mmhm, we're both Ephinean girls. If you know that Asbel guy who wants to protect everyone then he's from there too!

[i_am_not_cute]

[Love handles? Pao-Lin knows not what these are, but with a name like that, surely they can't be bad, right?]

Yeah, I know Asbel! And Richard and Hubert, too. [because it's totally not like I've been obsessively throwing her at the Graces cast or anything, nope]

[technobabbling]

[Oh yeaaah totally, they're good things. They also seem to go great with fried chicken and other friend stuff Cheria likes.]

Sounds like you know the whole crew then, even Little Bro! But... [And here's the real test right here.] Do you know Sophie? Bonus points if you know the Captain too!

[i_am_not_cute]

Um, well, I know a Sophie, but she's not from Ephinea. And I don't think I know anyone who's just "the Captain".

[Oh, no, is Professor Pascal going to fail Pao-Lin? BUT SHE NEEDS THE CREDIT FROM THIS CLASS TO GRADUATE]

[technobabbling]

Bzzzt!! Ooh, it's all over at the last hurdle. Thanks for playing, hope you had a blast!

[Oh please, no one fails when they're with Prof. Pascal! Or wins... Or really achieves anything, who would want to learn from Pascal of all people?] The Sophie I know has these two pigtails and she can really pack a mean punch. The Captain, AKA Malik, is this guy who throws a sword like a boomerang and his cryas artes are way less flashy and kaboom like than mine!

[i_am_not_cute]

[Fair enough, Professor Pascal would be a nightmare. not that that would stop Hubert from taking all her classes ever]

The Captain really has a boomerang sword?

[Wow, Pao-Lin doesn't even care about the "less flashy" part, the Captain has a boomerang sword. Why does everyone from Ephinea seem to get badass weapons? SHE IS SO JELLY.]

[technobabbling]

[Oh please Hubert has already signed up for all her classes, even the summer ones. That kid must be really eager to learn!]

Well yeah, but I totally have this staff that can fold over into a rifle! Isn't that way cooler?

[Even in another world she isn't going to lose to you in a contest between who is cooler and flashier Cap'n, no way no how.]

1/2

[i_am_not_cute]

[Yeah, Inner Pao-Lin is impressed.]

2/2

[i_am_not_cute]

[...well, so is Outer Pao-Lin, for that matter.]

Seriously? I wish my Hero staff could turn into a rifle too...

[Never mind that with her lightning powers, Pao-Lin's already a long-range fighter. Fuck facts, COOL IS THE RULE HERE.]
