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

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.

Hello.

[Evan doesn't know you young woman but he is a friendly guy. Okay, so he's rather hard to mistake for anyone else, unless you approached from his right side, considering his left arm is missing.

But mistakes happen and he has a face which reminds people of other people so he doesn't mind these cases of mistaken identity.]

Cute cat.

[So, he has to ask...]

Ah... H-Hinata...

Do they... have a baseball diamond? I haven't seen one...

Edited 2012-12-20 21:28 (UTC)

Haha. Not drawing, just attempting.

[He holds out... some very warped images of people and animals. Oh, and huge butterflies. And literally everything has eyelashes.]

See? Attempting. I think the eyelashes give them character...

[The Dark One's hair ruffles a little as a small puff of air comes at him upon Aang's decent. This makes him look up and stare.]

You're the Avatar.

[Excuse him. He's lost his poetic inspiration after having been brought here. He's back to his gloomy old self.]

[Quick dark eyes assess the man approaching, and Alex gives him a cheeky grin.]

Why, advice, of course. Like the sign says. [As he swings his feet off the booth, Alex folds the knife away and plants it in his pocket. With his other hand he reveals what he's been whittling by chasing a wooden nickle over his knuckles. He flips the the nickle up with his thumb, testing the weight, and then catches it.]

I'm not opposed to the receiving as well as the giving. Especially if I get my nickle back.

[Alex rubbed the back of his neck.]

The questions and the advice, usually.

[A little observation would reveal that... despite the stereotype of elves (or elven-looking people) being amazing sharpshooters, Karuika is only average. Not terrible, but not able to shoot a perfect hit each time either.

But he does notice that purple head of hair.]

Is it fun? To watch. [... Huh. That guy has a halberd, doesn't he?]

[Evan was simply admiring the fountain when he spots the dark-haired teen.

Feeling sociable he wanders over, only to over-hear the young man's comment to the journal. (He assumes that's what it was too anyways.) Before thinking that he might just be startling the young man Evan speaks up.]

From what I've learned, no time passes back home once we're here. If that's any consolation?

[Whatever, Noda. It did work.]

[...sort of. She stopped looking like she were about to cry, at least. Hinata was then free to grab Noda by the shoulders and shove him away from the store.]

Time to go..!

[Once they were out of earshot, he'd let Noda go, grinning lazily as he often did.] Ah... You really did a number on that poor girl! What happened, they didn't have what you wanted?

[Yeah, he's like that. He just doesn't really realize (or seem to care).]

Nice? That tells me nothing. No, no, specifics. Is the food greasy and cheap?

Bars are... good for information, usually. How does this one rate?

I have plenty of advice to give. Any subject in particular you need advice in?

[Evan admires the pure showmanship of the wooden nickle reveal. He grins at the comment.]

I don't know. That's a neat nickle.... [He's teasing, mostly. Humor dances in his eyes.]

[Akihisa takes a look at the drawing. Oh, okay, attempting does fit better. Although... What was he drawing? A person? He could vaguely see a face...]

Eyelashes?

[ perhaps the day before you may have noticed a certain canine walking along by himself.. and today, it's the same. same dog and even the same path.

a light grey and white colored shiba inu with a strange headphone-like collar around his neck. he pauses this time in his walk to glance up, staring up at the endless sky with an... almost thoughtful look.

before he gives a sudden sneeze. brrr, it's kinda chilly today huh?]

[And then he see them. OH THERE'S THE EYELASHES]

Oh! Yeah, I think it does too! Ahahah...

[Mmm sudden awkward. Akihisa's already kicking himself mentally for making such an idiotic remark so early in the conversation.]

[After a day of exploring Evan heads to the grocery store to pick up some food. After looking through the dried goods (things he will not ruin out of hand) he heads to fresh produce, basket in hand.

There is a woman looking over the fruit and holding a kiwi. Oooh, kiwi.]

They have kiwi? Nice.

[Evan stands next to her, quite possibly invading her personal space to look over the fruit. He sets the basket down to the side and grabs a kiwi with the same hand. The only hand he has actually.]

[Well. When he sees a bird acting weird, his first impulse is 'Need any help,' not 'Die, Andalite scum.' He probably isn't a Yeerk, so it's probably safe to talk to him.

She turns and gives him a look.]

{Where am I?}

[... Oh, Noda was serious?! Oh no.]

Ahh...

Noda... it's always free. You didn't come at the wrong time.

Or maybe the regular world had enough and shoved you in here. [She doesn't care if that doesn't make sense, teasing is fun.]

Evan's not one to talk, his sense of personal space is rather skewed too. But still, wow. Kinda close.]

Oh, specifics. Foods good and free. They have sandwiches and salads and stuff. Oh and a pretty decent grilled cheese. They also have a selection on non-alcoholic drinks which is nice.

Well, this place isn't exactly swimming in information... I guess it depends on the information you're looking for? For information about Luceti, people are willing to talk. Other stuff, well, I'm sure there are some people who'll talk.

Yep... that's me! [He dissipates the air scooter, undeterred by his grim demeanor. He's not too familiar with The Dark One, if anything primarily getting a brief introduction sometime after the battle.] What's your name again, by the way?

[Talking bird. Right then. What on earth was he expecting when he asked a question? A raptor call and getting attacked in the face? Ouch.

But first, question to answer.]

Oh, uh. This place is called Luceti. It's some sort of bubble universe....[He waves his hand around in a circular gesture.] thing. Oh!

[Evan grabs his journal off the table where he had set it to look through things. He flips it open in an impressive feat of one handed dexterity and turns to the guide.]

There a guide in the journals. Here- [He holds it out towards the eagle then pauses.] Uh... Can you read? [Because eagle.]

[Evan will find Jake at the control panels inside the battle. He just came out of a room after punching up an Ustanak AI and now pondering over upping the difficulty. It's nice that this shithole has a battle dome, but it's still just not the same as fighting the real thing. A real opponent]

[Hey, it's all natural, thank you very much.]

I am, a little. Still, I should be paying better attention!

[Immediately trying to laugh away the troubled look.]

I was planning on giving it a shot, yes.

At least I'm not there anymore.

[Even if she doesn't do the sophisticated and advanced stuff. She doesn't need it, man.]

You and me both. [Don't mind Jake sitting on the bench beside the Dark one, a brown bag on hand. Looks like he had just gone shopping]

Matter of fact, this whole place sucks.
