Test Flight Meme

the luceti test flight meme

Reserves are open 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 music? Try playing DJ at HQ, the new nightclub!
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.

[Scenario One - Video]

[If you open your journal on this fine day, you'll be greeted with this imposing visage. Even though Doom does not have access to his usual armour in Luceti, given that it's basically considered a weapon of mass destruction on its own, he's allowed to keep the helmet. On its own, it's comparatively useless, but it prevents the rest of Luceti from seeing his horribly scarred face, for which they are no doubt grateful.]

Greetings, citizens - I am Doctor Victor von Doom. It has come to my attention that there is no system of government in place in this enclosure. This simply will not stand. Anarchy may have served in the past, but it shall crumble under the threat of a true emergency and devolve into pure chaos.

While I am certain that there are others here who are capable of leading, they are clearly unwilling to bear such responsibilities in this place. As such, the burden of power must fall to Doom.

Fear not, for I am no unseasoned monarch. Under my guidance, the nation of Latveria entered a new golden age of peace and prosperity [grasped in his iron fist] and remained neutral during a bitter conflict of ideologies where both sides were armed with city-destroying bombs, despite its vast resources which both nations desired. [If only because those bombs were spitballs compared to the weapons that Doom possesses.]

However, one man, even one as intelligent and skilled as I, cannot run a city on his own, even one so small as this, [At least, not until he's finished building his Doombots - once that happens, his recruits will suddenly find that their positions have become "redundant".] so I shall require volunteers to fill key positions within the infrastructure. Describe your qualifications, and if you are deemed worthy, you shall be allowed to move to the next phase of the interview process.

[tl;dr: he's taking over. Any objections?]

[Scenario Two - Action]

[Even mad scientists/dictators/sorcerers get hungry from time to time. Though he is entirely capable of making food for himself, Doom is used to having servants waiting on him hand and foot. As he is still working on creating Doombots out of the limited materials he has on hand, Doom has decided to sample some of the cuisine that Luceti has to offer.

While he is certain that it will be inferior to anything that he could attain in Latveria, he considers it a study to see how these people can make due with such inferior ingredients. So, if you're working or eating at one of Luceti's restaurants (or even if you're across the street, in all likelihood), you'll hear this bellowed at the entrance to the building:]

Behold! The scion of Latveria, Doctor Doom, has arrived! And Doom demands brunch! [He would have broken down a wall to make his entrance, but that might have made it marginally less likely for him to be served.]

Scenario two

[the_dead_pool2]

[Deadpool has somehow found himself in a waitress outfit. Not a waiter outfit, that was too passe, why? Well there are certain mysteries that are best left unsolved. When Doom makes his entrance Deadpool has a pencil and pad out]

So that's one Doom brunch, coffee, omelet, and some fruit, hun?

[Just kind of giving him an eyebrow raise there.]

Re: Scenario two

[bowbeforedoom]

[Dozens of questions run through Doom's mind, but most of them involve having Deadpool explain what he's doing. As Deadpool and logic rarely reside in the same time zone, he decides to stick with a rhetorical question instead.]

You dare to presume what Doom shall be having for brunch? [He knows he'll get an answer regardless, but he walks to the nearest empty table and takes a seat. He would not normally trust a maniac like Deadpool with his food, but he appears to have no other option at this time.]

I shall start with scrambled dodo eggs and genuine Columbian coffee. If these can be prepared adequately, then I shall continue to grace this place with my presence. [The demands may be unreasonable given the circumstances, but since when has Doom ever been reasonable?]

[the_dead_pool2]

[Deadpool chews on what one can only assume to be gum for a moment there]

Right.

Considering there is no money here, which means no tip, would you mind keeping the monologuing down to a minimum? I mean, I realize that it is sort of your thing, but maybe just take a chill pill, sit back, complete the crossword there? Just saying, I mean unless you find it overly challenging or something.

[He'll then just walk off and proceed to go get him whatever was on hand]
