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! Don't have one? Just dance your butt off.
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.

[Giant talking owls? No big deal, not really. The vastly different lifeforms in the galaxy she grew up in were so numerous that it wouldn't have surprised her in the least if he said he was from some minor planet or moon.

Although, he'd have to be from one that wasn't really that known or explored.

She merely looked up from the novel and peered at the creature calmly.]


Simply because something is fictional doesn't negate the fact that there is knowledge that can be gained from it.

Hm. Perhaps. However, I find fiction to be much less reliable as it is mostly contrived from the imagination.

[Still, he is curious.]

Tell me. What have you learned from this book?
borntorebel: (I am trying not to smile.)

Sometimes, stirring up another person's imagination is a worthwhile process. Dealing with nothing but facts, with the dryness of what is or has been, leaves a person with a...

[She paused as she thought over her words carefully. She could remember many men who seemed so...]

To be honest, I find them quite dull and not at all worth talking to. I'd much rather talk to a person about the ideas and passions behind a good fictional novel than to someone who has no real life in them.

As for what I've learned in this book, there is a planet called Earth. The setting for this novel is a city called Chicago. It's a moderately technologically advanced city and it is filled with things I've never seen. I would like to meet a...wizard one day. It sounds an awful lot like some people I know from my own...world.
