there is no place quite like this place if we get it on the go

[herotypical]

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. Oh. And don't forget to RESERVE your characters.

[Thank you for your consideration. 8|]

There was a giant wolf god who would ferociously guard these parts, until her departure some months ago.

[greenjacketed]

Gibraltar! [ he responds with such enthusiasm. ] Never been so far south on the peninsula. Never by land, at least. I've spent far longer with my feet on the Spanish and Portuguese portions.

[ he made a vague wave at the bar, hoping to call the server forth for more drinks. only afterwards did he realize he should have checked with the lady.

ah well.

in the meantime: ] Though, I confess I was last in England the moment they brought me to this place. Still -- it had been my first trip back in...[ christ ] years.

[medicalpunch]

... Ah. Well, I'm glad she's not about any more, then.

[Because it's not like populated areas are a good place for her to cut loose 8|a]

Evan Brown | Original Character

[onearmedexmerc]

[Evan's been taking the sudden relocation to Luceti with minimal fuss. Once he learned time doesn't pass the same way back home he's taken to enjoying himself even. So many new and different people to meet and no work! It's kinda cool.

Even if his one-armed state does seem to draw attention. That's not too unusual though, especially when he went around without his prosthetic back home. You would think they had never seen a man without his left arm before! ...Point in fact, they probably hadn't, but still.

Today Evan is:

apple) Looking around the item shop (For his prosthetic arm)
bear) Checking out the weapon shop. Contemplating the knives, mainly.
cherry) Exploring the battle dome, maybe offering to spar anyone who looks free.
dog) Randomly starting conversations with strangers on bizarre subjects. Ignore him or answer him.
epic) Ending his day at Good Spirits, enjoying his milkshake.

Meet, talk, side-eye at Evan at will.]

going to test an earlier point on you because I know you're cool!

[trainwrecking]

[So there is a redhead walking along, minding his own business, and then suddenly a wild Hinata appears!

He only looks surprised for about half a second.]

Uhh... catch? Where? [Because said redhead still does not quite know his way around.]

[endgames]

She was surprisingly wise, actually. Just protective.

[He waves a hand.] But it's neither here nor there now, I suppose. Are you adjusting to the power cap?

[niceguypose]

[Have a bushy-browed ninja rushing to greet you familiarly.]

Sora-kun! That is quite the daring makeover you've undergone!

[vainvoid]

[Vanitas turns to face the ninja, his expression puzzled.]

Who the hell are you?

oh hello~

[hatesguns]

[NEVER FOR HIM. WHAT'S COMMON SENSE]

Then perhaps this store should work on restocking it faster!

[He points at Otonashi with his halberd blade.] How would you feel when the items you specifically want are out of stock?!

[What is making any sense??]

hello \o i'm here too please accept me

[trainwrecking]

[Instinctively, he holds his hands up to defend himself.]

Wh―?! I would just deal with it, not swing a polearm around and make an idiot out of myself!

The store employee can't make them stock faster. Leave them alone!

How about a little C + maybe D if it suits you?

[medicalpunch]

[Sakura's heading into the Battle Dome to play with it some more. Her first impression was fairly mixed, but she's curious enough to give it another go and see how it does for her.]

[On the way in, she nearly bumps into Evan, lost in some troubling thoughts about this place.]

Oh! I'm sorry, I almost didn't see you!

[avaricious]

Maybe you need someone to warm you up, darling.

[So says the guy who doesn't look any older than her, but has a voice a wee bit too masculine for his age.]

[frequent_flyer]

[Hinata is used to the sound of chaos, so he nonchalantly walks up behind Noda, patting him on the shoulder.]

Oi, oi... Leave the poor girl alone! I'll handle this...

[He tugs Noda back a little, skirting around to stand in front of him, feeling the need to calm the poor grocery store employee down.]

Sorry about him, he's an idiot. He should know better than to... [Cue slow-motion hair-toss and heart-melting grin, complete with cherry blossom petals floating on the breeze and maybe some sparkles.] ...trouble a pretty girl like you.

Greedling | Fullmetal Alchemist

[avaricious]

[Luceti isn't a bad place for someone who wants everything. After all, everything is just within reach. Somehow it doesn't seem as good when anyone else can have it too. Nobody ever said life is perfect.

Of course, life here is odd. Everyone recognizes him as Ling. And they expect Greed to look different. However he's not so inclined to just let Ling out to play. So when anyone runs into Greed today, they won't be getting a chance to speak to the Ling down under. Just the homunculus.

As it is, he's in the smithy. He has a wheelbarrow he stole borrowed from someone and he's loading it up with weapons while no one is watching the shop. If he's going to load up on possessions, he might as well have the ones most valuable in Luceti.]

[frequent_flyer]

At the baseball diamond, of course!

[Because what kind of savage, backwater place wouldn't have a baseball diamond, I mean really. Baseball is the international passtime.]

[Hinata may or may not be slightly delusional about his physical hobby of choice.]

Do you know where it is, Otonashi-kun?

[doneforherself]

[Of course, Anne notices her hair and wings. The hair is hideously garish, as far as she is concerned, but the wings are stunning.

Ever the proper lady, she curtsies, bowing her head politely.]

Good afternoon, ma'am.

Karuika Mirel | OC

[hushedpenance]

[There is a single, small, pointy-eared blonde boy wandering around either

A: Trying to decide if his journal works by drawing horrible artwork in it. Be prepared for THAT onslaught, Luceti, he's really bad at art.

or

B: Target practice with a shortbow! Because maybe he'll go hunting later. LOOK OUT, BAMBI and other forest creatures...

or!!

C: Stalking around outside the bar. Not really stalking, exactly, but when he sees you he might bound up to you and get a little too close. What are social norms???]

How is it in there?

I can't brain a silly question. Going for option cherry

[onearmedexmerc]

[Evan gives Sakura a smile, even as he considers the weirdness that is her cotton candy pink hair.]

Eh, no harm no foul. You look distracted.

[And troubled.]

Are you doing to be using the battle dome?

[Say yes. He wants to spar.]

[medicalpunch]

I am. [She nods, frowning a little at her fist and at the destruction she's wrought.]

It isn't as though I had much to start with.

[friendshipfirst]

So... y' a monster made of data that can talk? That's pretty cool!

[ Though most things are cool to Ash. He glaces at Pikachu before smiling. ]

Yeah! This is Pikachu!

[ Pikachu waves while squealing it's name as a greeting to Guilmon. ]

[niceguypose]

It is me, Rock Lee, your dear friend! Konoha's Beautiful Green Wild Beast! Could you... not be Sora-kun?

[makethembelieve]

[She beams.]

Oh, how wonderful. I mean, of course, the reasons could not have been truly pleasant, but I should think it would be so wonderful, getting to see Spain and such.

Is it as beautiful there as it sounds? I've heard men describe Spain before, and it always sounds so very breathtaking.

[When the server brings drinks, she delicately takes one without batting an eye, sipping at it.]

[oftheyin]

[Sensing the stone once more made Ran Fan so happy, and she hoped that it would be Ling's. Having Ling back meant the world to her, but it wasn't Ling that she found. He certainly looked like him, but she knew better. A short interaction was all she needed to figure out who he really was. And that interaction was all she needed to feel that heartache again. Right when she was getting over it.

She needed some time alone for a bit, but once she got a handle over her emotions, she went to find him again, which was an easy task to do.]

What are you doing?

[Her mask is on, and she's going to try her best and act like nothing is wrong. Though she did slip up earlier and showed up without her mask, and when she found out it was Ling that crushed feeling showed up on her face.]

[niceguypose]

It is. But us ninja of Konoha... We live to clean such messes, do we not? Now that you're here... I think our fighting chances have multiplied!

[And he jabs at the air to the side to express his point. Because clearly these motions are necessary.]

[endgames]

Tch, thankfully. You were in the bottom of taijutsu classes right along with me, back in the day. But what does that tell you?
