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.

[Aang manages to cross paths with her while on his way to take a look at the stables himself. He greets her with a friendly smile.]

Hi there! I like your dog.

[...Really, really big dog.]

[aryaunderfoot]

[Nymeria's ears pin back at "dog." Arya reaches a hand up to curl it in the scruff on the back of the wolf's neck to steady her.]

She's a direwolf, not a dog. [Wolves and dogs never go together in her mind anymore after the Hound's remarks.] Her name's Nymeria.

[The second part is offered as something like a thanks. Not that she's too concerned if people like Nymeria or not, but it's nice not to have someone flinching at the sight of a five foot wolf.]

[savedtheworld]

Oh, I'm sorry. I never seen a direwolf before. I still like her. [It would just make more sense for a kid to walk around with a big dog rather than a big wolf. Clearly Aang's been reading some Clifford the Red Dog. He still looks at the direwolf with a fearless smile.] It's nice to meet you, Nymeria. My name's Aang.

[aryaunderfoot]

[Nymeria tilts her head slightly to one side, but stays very still otherwise. Arya tightens her hold on the wolf's scruff, just in case, but she doesn't seem inclined to attack at all.]

It's fine. Most people haven't ever seen one before, even back home. [Arya eyes Aang, decides he's one of those open and friendly types that are all over the place here, and decides not to lie about her name.] Nice to meet you, too, Aang. I'm Arya.

[savedtheworld]

Hi Arya - it's definitely nice to meet you, too! [He says with a slight laugh. Yep, epitome of the open and friendly types.] And that sounds really neat. I always like meeting all kinds of new animals. [But something tells him he shouldn't try to ride this one.]

[aryaunderfoot]

[Yeah, even Arya hasn't tried riding on Nymeria yet. She's thought about it, but that's. Probably not a good idea. Still, she grins.]

Maybe you can meet my brothers' direwolves too, if they come here. Ghost is all white and never makes any sound. And Summer's always been the most friendly. [Aside from Lady, but thinking about what happened to Lady still hurts, even for her.] They're probably even bigger than Nymeria by now.
