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!

Naboo, that's where I'm from. [What harm is there in telling him that, since it was very unlikely that he's ever heard of it. An opinion she quickly changes when he hands her the blaster.]
If you had this, why didn't you use it? [She waits for him to do whatever with the rock and she freezes for a half-second when she realizes what she's seen. A Jedi. A Jedi without a lightsaber, but a Jedi nonetheless.
More important things! When the creature turns around, she aims the blaster at the foot holding its victim.]
Catch the woman! [That's all the warning he's getting before she shoots.]
no subject
But ending up nearly underneath the creature makes it far easier, and he can make sure the woman ends up safely on the ground, on her feet and unharmed. Well, aside from ripped clothing and scratches.]
You can---
[The scream from the woman beside him and the angry shrieking from the creature above are both ample warning, though Luke has a third one too, so he's pushing the woman and himself out of the way of the creature's swoop before either really have the chance to scream.
Luke's already reaching for a stone to hurl at the creature again, but hopefully his blaster's being put to good use now that they don't need to be careful about the creature dropping its 'prey'.]
no subject
[It's so nice to just do things and not have to worry about appearances to an entire galaxy. And once the the woman is out of the creature's grasp and falling, she shoots the lizard again, between the eyes as it whirls around. She fires a second time and hits a wing.
Which means that now the lizard is falling right towards her.]
KRIFF!
[She tucks the blaster close and dives to the side as quickly as she can. She manages to clear her body almost all of the way, but gets clipped with the beast's wing as it hits the ground.]
no subject
No use wasting clips on something that's too far away for a short-range blaster. Are you all right?
[At least the thing's dead, now.]
no subject
However, she's not going to deny the hand to help her up either.]
I'm fine. Although I'm sure my ego is a little bruised. Nothing I can't manage.
[She turns her attention to more important matters.]
Are the people okay? Was anyone else hurt?
no subject
Looks like it. It didn't get anyone before it grabbed that woman, and you were the only one close by when it fell to the ground after you shot it.
[Glancing around, Luke frowned.]
I guess there could be more around, but that one won't be doing anything else.
[It's strange, really; now that he actually can spare the attention, it feels like he should recognise her, but Luke knows he's never seen this woman before in his life. Maybe it's just because she reminds him a little of Leia.]
no subject
I'll admit that I didn't think to look up when I considered where the attack would come from. Not until the creature shrieked.
[She looks at it, considering just want it was. Part of it looked like a krayt dragon, but not as big. There weren't many creatures that she actually had experience with so her frame of practical reference was sadly small.]
I'm just glad that everyone appears to be safe now. Although, we should try and figure out if there are more. It would be horrible if someone was to get injured at a time like this.
no subject
Wouldn't surprise me if there's more of them, unless they're solitary and rare like krayt dragons... [Unintentionally talking about the similarities (however vague) of these things to krayt dragons, even if Luke doesn't have a clue that's what she's thinking of.]
Am I going to have to wrestle you for my blaster? [He grins, then pauses thoughtfully.] Though if we're going to look for more of them, maybe you should keep it for now.
[While throwing rocks at the things with the Force wasn't quite as practical a weapon as a blaster, it wasn't all he could do, after all.]
no subject
It's hard to say without more information. Perhaps we can ask the natives to this planet as as we look.
[She laughs a little guiltily before handing him the weapon back.] Forgive me. Normally, I don't reach for a blaster first, but I don't think that diplomacy would have worked quite so well with the flying lizard as it does with Wookiees. [Not that it works that well with Wookiees either.]
no subject
[Luke frowns, hesitating at his word choice because he's frankly unsure what else to call it, though he shrugs and grins as he takes the blaster back.]
Better share what weapons we've got. Increased our effectiveness than anything else.
[Snorting, he looks down at the creature, squatting down to run a hand down the edge of the wing.]
Since it didn't seem to be anything more than an animal, and a hungry one at that and we didn't have any alternative food... not much to negotiate with, no.
no subject
[Luke, you're totally not the only one unsure about the Turtle-boat thing.]
I think for now, the fewer of us they see armed, the more likely they are to talk to us.
[She holds out her hands and nods her head forward.]
I'm Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo, Jedi Knight. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
no subject
And then he can't hide his guilty wince, even as he takes her hand. Once, he ended up mostly annoyed everybody kept calling him a Jedi even (especially) when he wasn't one, but now... he mostly feels guilty over leaving Yoda.]
Ah... I'm not a Jedi. Not yet, anyway. [Shaking his head, Luke smiles faintly. Wonders if she, like Obi-Wan, is from the past, since she's calling herself a senator.]
Luke Skywalker. I'd say something about it being nice to meet you, Senator, but the situation's... [he trails off, eyeing the creature on the ground.]
