Itching to try out writing a character? Then rev up your engines, grab your accounts, and slam your way into this meme! Here is a venue for you to try out whatever character there might be tickling your fancy, from fandom to OC, for as few as one and as many as MANY. Seriously, there's no limit.
How do you partake in this fantastic congregation of character testing? Why, by following these simple steps:
→ Comment with the journal of a character you want to test; put their name and canon in the subject line for added sparkles. → Tag around with everyone! → Profit like you live on a the back of a turtle! → Maybe even RESERVE so you CAN live on the back of a turtle!
But wait, there's more! For the low, low price of $9,999.99, you can even use one of our handy prompts when you tag someone. You could even pick one with a Random Number Generator to help decide which prompt to go with!
Haggling Over Something in the Marketplace! Maybe someone else saw the exact same shiny thing you did at the exact same moment! However shall this be resolved? Remember: blood is extremely hard to scrub off of turtle shell!
Dramatic Chase Sequence! You're running away from something! It could be anything, from a rampaging kirin to a gaggle of overly enthusiastic children! One way or another, you can't stop, and much like a katamari ball, you feel obligated to grab everyone in your path along the way to keep them out of danger! Or perhaps you're more the sort to try and knock them into it as a distraction...?
Where There's A Will, There's A...? The Life and Dreaming Planes have been merged, and sometimes what start out as wishful thinking becomes lured into reality. That slick new motorcycle or pile of kingly treasure you were just daydreaming about? Surprise! Though it may only stay for a short while before it disappears again, so make it count. Hopefully you're not the type to daydream about terrible things befalling people you don't like...
SECRET UNDERCOVER MODE ACTIVATE! The three major kedan families all have their own agendas, and you've chosen to entangle yourselves with one (or more!) of them. Are you hoping to shift the balance of power? Gain some favours? Perhaps you're on a mission to bring a criminal to justice, or maybe you just want to get the cream of the crop from the black market.
WILDCARD! Go nuts. Suddenly your character is fighting dragons! Good God, they've found the Millennium Falcon drifting in the ocean! Do you really feel the need to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Please note, Wildcard options can also be what you can choose to do if you aren't yet comfortable in the Tu Shanshu setting, and would prefer a more 'dear-mun'-esque experience. Please specify in your post!
"That is a shame. Stealth and thievery are important for rogues," he muses, one hand coming up to stroke his beard. He's been practicing beard-stroking ever since he discovered his ability to grow beards. One day, it will be long and voluminous, but right now, it's just sort of there, and stroking it isn't as satisfying (or helpful to the thinking process) as he hoped it would be.
"Well, nevermind. We'll find a use for you. Come along, then. To a tavern! We must confer with the bar wench for local news and possible quests."
"What ho," she says, and gestures dramatically, before pausing.
"Er. I don't think you should call the barmaids 'wenches'. It's not politic'ly correct," she notes, one hand on her chin as she thinks. (She has no beard to stroke in thought, alas. She could probably grow one if she really wanted to, but that's not in the cards right now.)
"What ho where?" he asks, following her gesture in the assumption that she's indicating something off in the distance, but finds himself immediately distracted by her rebuke.
Abashed, he puts his free hand to the back of his head, so that now he seems to be readjusting his neck by gripping both beard and cranium. "My, so many rules to learn. All right. Barmaids, then. That should do well enough, shouldn't it? Yes, yes, I think so." His hands at last release his head, though tomorrow he'll find an inexplicable crick in his neck from these shenanigans.
Careful, Wally, a man could trip and break his neck in that position. Not like Kitty'd know from experience, of course. Perish the thought.
"I should think. Unless the title of 'wench' is one earned through extensive practice and study. Perhaps they're like upper-level barmaids. I never really thought about it before."
"Perhaps 'wenches' are only the particularly busty barmaids. I've always heard them referred to in conjunction with the word 'lusty', so that must be it. Lusty, busty barmaids."
Only Wally the Wizard could say the preceding sentence without a hint of his own lustiness. In fact, he was almost cheerfully clinical in that assessment. "That would seem rather unfair to the less well-endowed girls, though. Maybe that's not it at all. Maybe wenches are ex-pirates."
"I'd ask Alec, but he's not here right now, and these days I think he knows more about wrenches than wenches, anyway." It'd be fair to say it's an evensplit, really.
"Maybe wenchiness is something gained once one reaches a certain level of endowment. Maybe that's like a special card you get once you hit a certain bra size. Like, congrats, you're a sextuple-D, please enjoy this Certificate of Wenchiness and a complimentary bustier."
"Well, as a sextuple-D, she should get something out of it. Poor dear would always be toppling over." With that, he heads off in the direction of a pub, because if there's one thing a mediocre wizard has, it's an innate sense of direction when it comes to seeking out alcohol. There's a dimly-lit, grimy place to drink away his woes nearby: he's sure of it.
"Maybe wenching is a learned trade. A specialization, if you will, like necromancy or tap-dancing. Perhaps it's like the doctorate of barmaiding."
