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 starts out as wishful thinking becomes lured into reality. That slick new motorcycle or pile of kingly treasure you were just daydreaming about? Surprise! It's just appeared in front of you. 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. Maybe you haven't been hired by them at all, but are using their name for your own goals... as long as no one discovers the lie!
- Wait... you want my what now?!
The kedan are a curious folk, and the Foreigners are entertainment in conveniently arriving packages, especially when they come along with unique items that the kedan might not have seen before. Maybe it's your cellphone... or maybe it's your knickers! How badly do you want to keep your stuff from some overeager native shapeshifters who want to buy, bribe, or burglarize it right off your person?
- Sea prunes, get your sea prunes right here!
Life in Keeliai can take a little getting used to: the chickens have scales, the cows have feathers, and the fruits come in more colour and pattern combinations than your average tye-dye shirt. Not to mention that meal you just ordered from the food vendor? Has arrived on the plate, and you're pretty sure you just saw it move.
- Everybody needs a little darkness...
The Great Enemy may have been defeated over two years ago, and people are even willing to speak Malicant's name aloud now, but there remains a taint in the city never fully purged. Those who consider Malicant a dark god whose end was unjust are the cultists of Keeliai, and they aren't always so easy to identify as one might think. Sometimes their presence is felt in the growing urge to give into one's darker instincts, especially in such a foreign place...
- Illicit substances, anyone?
Every city has its vices, and Keeliai is no different. Perhaps you actively sought it out, or perhaps an opportunistic dealer saw you as a potential customer needing a free sample, but you're now in possession of a packet of Lucid, an emotion-enhancing drug. Interested in finding out what happens when you crush that colourful crystal and ingest it?
- Incoming!
Tu Vishan's latest landfall stop has brought an unwelcome problem to its residents: enormous, toothy creatures who look more like pterosaurs than most people are comfortable with! With a twenty-foot wingspan, these aren't exactly harmless local wildlife, and they have a nasty habit of swooping down on targets both Foreigner and kedan! How are you going to fend them off, or help someone who might have been injured by the latest dive bombing??
- 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? Anything goes!

Incoming!
So he helps out, because that's a good plan! Two is better than one! Inky black hands seem to be his main form of attack, the shadowy claws flying in straight lines for flying things.
And it works out. Until the weird elementalist kicks one down and its on fire and a little too close to him. Because guess who forgot that he is, in fact, not a normal plant and thus a bit more resistant to fire than he looks?
"AAAAaahhh fire and dragons, bad bad bad!" The purple plant man running in circles flicking shadowy hands at other flying dragon things.
no subject
But then there's screaming and someone running around in circles. That's enough to distract him and stare for a moment in the direction of some weird looking person. Not that he's not used to seeing weird things back in Luceti but this is new. Zuko then ducks as one of the shadowy hands shoots just over his head and strikes another creature.
"Hey! Watch it!"
no subject
"We should run." He's made of plants, he's wearing plants, it's very plant-y here now. It's a different hand-flick this time, and a green-blue mist sits on the ground in a circle about them.
"... I can make them run so we can run?" The next flying thing that gets close hits that circle of magic. If Zuko had any scratches, they're starting to heal - while the creature shrieks, bleeding from the magic.
no subject
That is until some magic surrounds them, healing the minor scratches from the scuffle and then apparently hurting one of the creatures. Whoa.
Taking that opportunity, Zuko sounds out a fire blast at the already ailing monster. Their combined efforts causing it to scream and crumple to the ground. But there was still more coming.
"Come on, hurry!" This said to his new plant friend as he decides to take the advise after all and makes a retreat.
no subject
Asteffiel follows along right behind Zuko, dropping one more circle of magic. This one doesn't seem to do anything, just shimmers faintly on the ground like some sort of trap.
Trap is probably an accurate way to describe these kind of spells, because any of the monsters that come after them abruptly give shrieks of terror and fly in the other direction. He did say he could make them run away-
no subject
Once they were far enough away, Zuko ducked into an alley and slowed down to catch his breath. Even though he could breathe easier next to the plant guy, he still got tired.
"What were those things?" he voices to nobody in particular.
no subject
And Asteffiel follows, although he stays standing. He peeks around the corner, before offering extra helpfully:
"Big and mean?"
All the helpfulness of a small child, really.
no subject
After a moment he stands up again and looks at the skies. Of course, things like this weren't exactly uncommon in Luceti either. It could be worse after all. Shift hunters were pretty nasty. At least these things weren't looking to rip off his wings or sacrifice him or something.
"They'll probably be back eventually, we should find shelter."
no subject
"The small dragons serve the elder dragons. But usually they look a little alike. ... I don't want to think about a new elder dragon." That's at least how it worked at home.
And this wasn't home. But he really doesn't want to find elder dragons here. Trahearne would be far better suited for anything like that! He was a Firstborn! And actually organized taking down one!
He's.. just going to stare look up and down the alley. Which way, new friend?
no subject
Zuko huffs, because those creatures aren't the majestic and powerful creatures he had learned firebending from. Calling those things dragons was like an insult to the real ones.
no subject
He'll discover that dragons are very different in a moment, okay.
no subject
Zuko is very insistent about this!
"Dragons breathe fire and are longer and not that ugly!"
