the luceti test flight 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 flight 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.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[For someone who prided himself on being so quiet and skilled when he wanted to be, he sure was being loud and obnoxious as he made his way along the path.

Just as she was going to open her mouth to deride his stealth ability, she noticed the damage to his wings. Truthfully, it was amazing that he was still awake, but then again, the former leader of the Black Brigade was known for his stubbornness and pride. Swallowing any sass she might have given him for later, she stepped silently out of the trees, hands on her daggers to protect herself in case he decided to come out swinging his sword.]

You know, Albel, you could have just asked for help. I wouldn't let even you die out here like a dog.

[Swinging out with his sword was definitely his first thought, and he was only mildly disappointed the pain made him stay his hand. Trying to move his good arm was an exercise in how well he could keep himself from wincing. Besides, he had gotten this far down the path on pure adrenaline and stubbornness; he needed to keep that in reserve if he wanted to make it back to the village.]

Hmph... if I needed help, I would ask someone else.

[Mostly a completely lie; he wouldn't ask for help period.]

[He's far to easy to read. It only makes her shake her head as she steps forward.]

Please save your breath to call me a maggot after I heal you and give me the decency of not lying to my face.

What part of I don't need help did you not understand, fool? I am fine.

[No, no he wasn't, not that he needed to actually say as much, considering as soon as he tried to shuffle off again, he wavered unsteadily on his feet. But he was totally all right. Completely and perfectly normal here.]

[Before he lies to her again, she reaches out and touches the deformed wing. Tutting under her breath, she doesn't give him much choice.]

Healing! You're an idiot and a liar. I don't know why I waste my time with you, Albel Nox.

[Just the touch was enough to shoot pain through the wing and his body. He let out a hiss that might as well have been a scream. He jerked away from her, glaring daggers at her.]

Don't touch me, you fool!

No, the correct words are "thank you", you ungrateful oaf. [She crosses her arms under her breasts and waits for him to realize that he was whole again.] Even Roger knew how to use those words.

[He gave her a dispassionate glare, before he let his gaze drift toward the injured wing. It took a moment for him to focus, using what limited control he had to give it an experimental flex. It still hurt like hell, but at least it was noticeably better as well.]

Tch...

[You didn't actually think you were going to get a thank you, right?]

Again, you're welcome. You can thank me by not being an idiot and needing my assistance again.

[She's not stupid. She's also not sure if Albel knows what the words actually mean.]
