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.

[Albel, really, was more or less just passing through. Okay, not really. The Battle Dome seems like the only place to get any kind of a fight around here, and technology? He and technology aren't the best of friends. Traveling around space and the fourth dimension aside, Albel still hasn't mastered the arts of keyboards.

That said, trying to absorb how to work the simulations from idly milling past people isn't working all that well, either.

So he'll just take the easy route and sneer at Fayt.]

Those monsters hardly constitute a fight, fool.

[Albel would head straight for the first chance to fight things he could, and Fayt can't really say he's at all surprised. Not that he minded much. There was an ease to simulations that was relaxing, even if he'd grown to enjoy the challenge of real combat in different ways.]

You can turn up the difficulty level, if you want. It seems like you can adjust the monsters it produces, too.

[It's fairly obvious to see what he's doing, but he doesn't really feel the need to point it out. The Elicoor natives had adjusted pretty well overall to space travel and their technology in Fayt's opinion, even if there were still a few kinks.]

[At least the technology didn't surprise him anymore, per se. But Albel still isn't any kind of wizard at it, and so he just stashes away this information for future reference. There is a way to turn up the difficulty, and there is a way to change what monsters appear. How, exactly, is the last piece of the puzzle.]

I don't see why you wouldn't have it on the highest level in the first place. What point is there if there isn't any challenge?

I'm just testing it out right now. You have to get a feel for the system first, right?

[Though really, there wasn't much need. The simulator here was vaguely similar to the ones back home, even if the options were staggeringly more then what he'd ever seen before. It was pretty exciting.]

So it was just a warm up. [Assuming Fayt isn't just saying that, which Albel figures is a pretty safe bet. The boy might be a fool, but he also isn't the type to shy away from a proper fight.

Albel folds his arms and gives Fayt an expectant look.]

Well, what are you waiting for, then?

[Get on with the harder battles. :| He'll help.]

here, have another special-made account.

Oh my goodness, two of them?!

It's a party! :D

Party time!
