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, Ralph! [A proper greeting is always in order!] I'm just helping the good people of this village out by giving them a hand with their groceries. I just love to see the thankful smiles on their faces.

[It's all part of fixing people's days, bro.]

You know, I'll bet my hammer you'd be a natural at this.

[gonnawreckit]

[He cups his head in a sigh. Why did he miss this feeling of exasperation?]

Oh, yeah, sure. A real natural alright. I bet I'd also be a real natural at slamming my head into a wall until I pass out. I wonder which'll happen first.

[gonnafixit]

[Now, that attitude just won't do. Felix holds out one of the bags towards Ralph.]

Come on, Ralph! Give it the old-school try.

[gonnawreckit]

[He silently grabs the bag. Holds it up for a few moments. And then drops it on the ground.

All with a pout on his face.]

[gonnafixit]

[Oh so it's gonna be like that huh.]

Now, Ralph. Is that any way to be helping your fellow villagers?

[gonnawreckit]

Nope. But it's a heck of a great way to help me!

[He says with a smiling sneer.]

[gonnafixit]

[Ralph plz. He picks the dropped bag back up again.]

But when you help others, you help yourself! You'll be surprised how good it makes you feel.

[gonnawreckit]

I know how good it makes me feel. [He snatches the bag right out of Felix's hands.] Doesn't mean I'll do something for every Larry, Sue and Joe who asks something of me.
