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.

So very hard

[knowsofloss]

Straight out of the academy and I was actually on my first expedition.

[Until she found herself stranded on an island with crazy people, but details.]

[blokeraider]

Academy? Nice. I thought about going to one of those, but never really made the time.

[It's a hard knock life being a kid history buff and all you want to do is steal things.]

[knowsofloss]

Really? So, you're self taught than?

[Lara was sort of the same. Went on expedition with her parents and all that.]

[blokeraider]

I've got the scars to prove it.

[Because you know libraries. Dangerous places, those.]

[knowsofloss]

You're an explorer too than?

[Here let her show you one of hers.]

[blokeraider]

I've been to known to catch a flight or two, usually with permission.

[First rule of being a thief. Don't admit you're a thief.]

[knowsofloss]

'Usually?'

[No judging here, man. After what she's been through, kind of hard to see the world in black and white.]

[blokeraider]

Usually. I'm a very reputable man. And you know how airport security is.

[He assumes. She looks, to his estimation, like your typical modern woman with a keen interest in history.]

[knowsofloss]

What makes me think that's not the only way you get around?

[Oh, Nathan. If only you knew. But, the same could be said about this man and Lara's thoughts on him so far.]

[blokeraider]

Sometimes I use boats.

[knowsofloss]

Hopefully you weren't shipwrecked.

[blokeraider]

[Wistfully he finds himself thinking about that Nazi submarine he found in the middle of the Amazon. Now that was a shipwreck.]

I have a better sense of direction than that.
