The Final Test Flight Meme

[lucetimods]

the (final?) 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.

[ A grin tugging at the corner of his lips, Sailor eyes Ivan. ]

Stage art is a natural extension of the practitioner. It requires little to no effort.

[bemyused]

[Hit a target from very far away, you say? Pommy thinks on what he'd just been watching Ivan do for the past several minutes.]

...

Does that mean you're a ninja?

Also A!

[cursedchosen]

[Truth be told, Zelos wasn't having the best of days. He'd woken up who knows where, with an extra pair of wings he didn't remember having, and now there was some weird spirit (maybe?) demanding answers from him.]

[Yeah, no. He's gonna pass on this.]

Hey, listen, weird glowing fish thing.

[What was this thing, anyway?]

I'd love to help you out. Really, I would! But I'm not sure where this is either, so I think'd be best if we each tried to find our own answers, ya?

Karla

[cursedchosen]

[As it just so happened, Zelos was also walking through the forest.]

[Except, he was significantly less familiar with the forest than Karla and had actually been trying to find his way out for the last few hours. But, at long last, he had come upon a village! ...And it was one he didn't recognize at all. Great.]

[But, hey! There was also somebody standing outside of the village. Maybe she knew something?]

Hey, beautiful, do you happen to know where this place is?

[Look at this face? Can you resist this face?]

[swordprincess]

[At the moment, Karla's too busy staring at the village and trying to remember it to notice the face of the man approaching her. But she does hear him.]

Um...I think I've seen it before...

[She breaks her concentration for a moment to look at the guy. And yes, that same familiar feeling comes back.]

...Have I met you before?

[cursedchosen]

Nah, I don't think so. I'd definitely remember meeting someone as beautiful as you.

[;D]

But you said you know this village?

[swordprincess]

Perhaps if I think hard enough, it'll come to me...

[But looking down, she spots a journal with her name on the ground at her feet. She picks it up curiously.]

What's this? Maybe it'll say something...

[And yes, she vaguely remembers having a journal before. It would surely reveal clues. So she looks back at her previous entries. And then the name comes to her.]

Luceti...

[cursedchosen]

Luceti? Can't say I've ever heard of place named that before.

[Maybe on Sylvarant before the worlds were united? But even that felt like it was pushing it.]

[swordprincess]

[Her face gradually brightens as she sees the people she's talked to on her journal, the memory of her experience gradually returning.]

Yes...I remember now. Luceti...where the Malnosso perform experiments on us.

"Y, y-yes." He rubs the back of his neck. "It... is confusing."

And then he gazes down at the cookies in his arms - he had been distracted by Usagi to almost forget they were there! Well, he's bound to like them so he'll take one in his paws and sink a large bite into it...

Note to self: get old icons back when accepted to Luceti

[tailasoldastime]

... And then his eyes bulge out. He winces. And soon he cannot hold back any longer and he urgently puts a paw over his mouth, sending the rest of the cookies spilling out onto the ground.

[gonnawreckit]

"Yeah, right," he scoffs and grimaces at her. "Let's see you be so upbeat when it's sugar crash time. What's in this cookie, anyway?"

[gonnawreckit]

Ralph rolls his eyes.

"And that makes them special... how?"

[tailasoldastime]

"She... they're a gift. From a friend."

Well, an Usagi had been his friend before, but this one seems quite welcome to the idea.

[cursedchosen]

[Option 1 - Wing Injury]!

[As far as Zelos was concerned, the whole "mandatory wings" thing was a giant pain in the ass. He hadn't even wanted the first pair, and now he was stuck with two.]

[To top it off, the second pair, or the ones that had suddenly grown in when he'd showed up in this hell hole, were pretty damn fragile. All it had taken was one bear encounter gone wrong, and suddenly the wing was all but useless. It hurt like hell, too.]

[He's still stuck in the middle of the forest, and the most he can really do at this point is wobble, so he'll try to flag down the first person he sees.]

Hey, a little help here?

[Option 2 - Good Spirits!]

[If it's after dark, there's only one place that Zelos is likely to be - Good Spirits.]

[He's taken a seat at the counter, and is chatting up all of the wonderful hunnies around him. What will your character do? Join in the conversation? Interrupt? Punch Zelos in the face? The possibilities are endless.]

[Option 3 - Choose Your Own Adventure!]

[Anything is okay!]

Option 2!

[bubblywishes]

[Unfortunately, one of the wonderful hunnies around the bar is busy working, flitting from table to table and taking orders. It's kind of a bizarre feeling Norma gets - that she can get back into the swing of things at the bar so quickly after being gone. Is that because her memory was impeccable? She is a scholar at heart, after all...or was it because some memories just don't easily fade?

Either way, after she unloads a plate of food and beverage to another table of patrons, she stops by Zelos' table with a smile and her pad of paper.]

Yo, ready to order?

[cursedchosen]

[Zelos hadn't taken long to get into the swing of things, either. Sure, the place was crazy and the residents were pretty strange, but it still beat the stupid Chosen shit that he had going on in Meltokio. The bar here wasn't as nice, but that was a sacrifice he was willing to make.]

[He puts on his best smile as he orders.]

Hey beautiful, anything you recommend?

[bubblywishes]

[Oh lord, one of those types. Norma's always a fan of compliments, and she can play along like the best of them, but if the line gets crossed, she's gonna nail this Pretty Boy right in the nose. Best part is she can do it and not risk any actual penalties to her job - it's not like she's getting paid or anything.]

That'd be the house specialty! The Going Merry's the favorite of most people here.

Cless Alvein | Tales of Phantasia

[cless]

Scenario A

[ Some crazy event is going on right about now and he's fighting viciously, cutting through everything that is lashing at him like it's nobody's business. He's obviously found his sword and is looking like he is not having too much of an issue. But really... he can't believe that for some reason he's getting attacked by plants. ]

This place is starting to really get on my nerves!

Scenario B

[ He just bumped his wings somehow into something hard enough that he is lying against the wall of some house, squeezing his eyes in pain. ]

Ow...why, why, why?

Scenario C

[ Cless has just gotten up early for those practicing strikes, swinging his blade around until he is working up a sweat and then some. He's probably yelling or something a few times with every strike. Also, it's really, really early in the morning. He's probably accidentally disturbing someone. ]

Scenario D

[ The blond swordsman is tired after a bit of some miscellaneous strenuous events and he does mean to go to where he lives, he does. But he probably ends up collapsing in front of someone else's door and then falls asleep there by accident because he overdid it. Just five more minutes. ]

a.......

[trustcoon]

[In the middle of all the fighting is a foot-tall chubby raccoon, apparently having failed to escape the killer plants--it's currently totally tangled in vines and hanging from somewhere above Cless's head.]

Heelllppp meeeeeeeee!!

[cless]

[ He immediately whips around at the sound of distress, before realizing a beat later the sound came from above him. Okay well, he bends his legs, leaping up onto a lower branch. This also helps him to avoid another attack from some rabid plant.

Then following that he aims a careful slice at the vines... in such a way he doesn't also end up hurting the poor raccoon.

Somewhere in his mind it occurred to him this might be a fever dream, but-- ]

Don't worry, I've got this!

[trustcoon]

[That careful slice did the trick, it seems. Freedom! The raccoon, no longer tangled, falls onto the branch below--

--and proceeds to bounce off of it, accidentally headbutting a maneating flower in its....flowery....face(?) and landing on the ground. At least it doesn't seem to be hurt?]

.....I made it!
