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.

[Flynn is new enough in town and hungry enough that he's not above a little petty theft. Sure, he'd been told that his captors would provide him with food, but he knew how this game worked. A few prisoners band together and control the supply and rule the rest of the prisoners like that. Well, Flynn Rider was no follower. He was a survivor.

And he was surviving by stuffing ice cream pops in his inner pockets, not suspecting how this could backfire.]

[Anya is patrolling the aisles, checking for merchandise she hasn't yet marked and looking at books to try and calculate prices, when she notices this man - from the back, at least, though she doesn't catch just what he's up to.]

Are you going to buy anything, or are you just going to stand around?

[This place has really been trying her people skills.]

I'm a picky eater.

[He lifts up a box of cereal and makes a great production out of reading the list of nutritional value and ingredients on the side. None of it makes a lick of sense to him.]

What do you like to eat? If you're picky, that means you have some preference.

I like my meals already prepared. It's less work.

There's a restaurant not far from here. You can try that.

I'm hurt. It's like you're trying to get rid of me.

What? I'm helping. You said you don't like unprepared food. There's a place that serves prepared food.

And gain the reputation of a mooch? Perish the thought.

Isn't that the point of restaurants? Especially since they just give it away, instead of making you pay. Just think of all the food that must go to waste there. It's practically a crime.
