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 uncontrollable urge to polish every paving stone in the Earth Sector? Anything goes!

Makoto Konno | The Girl Who Leapt Through Time
No! No I need that! Give that back!
[She should of known better than to flash her cellphone about in such a strange place. Now some curious, and rather tall Kedan are in possession of the device and don't seem to be in any hurry to give it back. In fact, it's something of a game to them, watching the young girl dash about and try to snag it from their hands.]
Joke's over, c'mon!
[For someone so small, she's definitely got fight in her.]
[6]
[There's so much food. So. Much. Food. Makoto doesn't know where to start. Sure there are important things she should be dealing with and trying to figure out, but the constant growling in her stomach is all the reason she needs to call an intermission and grab a bite to eat.
Only the marketplace is filled with fresh smells and aromas and try as she might, she can't decide just what she wants to eat first. Or rather what she can afford.
And so there's a short, petite Japanese girl standing in the street between a bunch of food vendors trying to count the money she has in her pouch without making it too obvious what she's doing. She's failing miserably. Subtle isn't one of Makoto's skills.
Just the same, she's failing to have enough money for what she wants to buy. Why do the best things have the cost the most? Why is her life so hard. Realizing she's lacking in funds for that big, steaming leg of some kind of bird, Makoto breathes a somewhat overdone sigh.]
Whyyyy...
[Whine.]
6
They do look appetizing, don't they?
no subject
Oh uh! They do but... It's okay, really. I can't.
[And she's doing all she can to try and pass the money back.]
Thank you though. I really mean it.
no subject
It's really no trouble. How about we get one and share it, then?
no subject
[Now hang on a second. That's not a bad idea. And definitely better for Makoto's guilt to handle.]
I guess so.
[Right on cue, her stomach gives a growl. Mako cringes.]
Uh, I'm Makoto. Makoto Konno.
[The more she looks at Euphie, the more she notices how incredibly pink the woman is.]
no subject
I'm Euphemia... but you can call me Euphie! It's a pleasure to meet you, Makoto.
[ Who is definitely Japanese, by the name
so let's all be very glad that this Euphie is pre-Geassed. ]Have you been here very long?
no subject
Not really. I've only been here for a few days, so I guess I'm still kinda the new kid. How about you?
[And how about that food?]
no subject
[ They'll purchase some of the food that Makoto was eyeing so hungrily! And find a seat at an outdoor table where they can sit. Euphie even manages to make that poofy dress look comfortable and natural. ]
You're from Japan, aren't you? Your name, I mean...
5
Now, you guys should know by now that that's no way to treat a lady.
no subject
The sight of Chat is another surprise. Is he some kind of super hero? What is even going on here? Makoto's never seen anything like this before. At least not in real life.]
Um. Yeah! What he said!
[Might as well play along.]
no subject
So. How about you give her her property back, and we can all walk out of here happy? I know I'd prefer that. I'm sure she'd prefer that, so would you prefer that?"
5
I believe the young lady wants you to stop boys.
[The command holds an electronic twang to his voice as it comes out of the helmet.]
So I suggest that you give her the phone back.
[It's not a threat but definitely a firm command.]
no subject
She doesn't know quite how to react, and so all Mako does right away is stare, one hand still outstretched from where she was reaching for the phone. The kedan recover quicker than her, pausing just the same but making the call to throw the phone and run before something more comes from this armored stranger.
The thrown phone hits Makoto fair in the stomach. It's only then that she moves. With an 'oof' and a hand to her torso, Makoto comes to her senses and turns to face the retreating Kedan.]
Yeah, you better run! Jerks!
no subject
Are you okay miss? They didn't hurt you any?
[The girl doesn't look hurt but he still asks to make sure.]
no subject
No! No I'm fine. Thank you Mr... Suit... Man.
[Have yourself an awkward laugh, Gabe. Also, she's left her phone on the floor.]
no subject
Call me Guardian, and really you don't need to thank me. It's my job to help people.
[He takes a step forward and lifts her phone off the ground before offering it to her.]
Don't think you want to forget this.
5
[The voice comes from a man, accented, Irish, if Makoto can tell the difference. He's not as tall as the kedan, either, but there's a definite confidence to his stance there.]
Alternatively, we could skip the formalities and I send you off with a few bumps and bruises. Yunxu or black eyes, boys, you pick.
no subject
She stands back, waiting to see how things play out and waiting for the right moment to act. Maybe it's that she's not alone in this anymore, or maybe it's just that the chance arises, but when Shay speaks the kedan pause in their game to look at him and the phone is brought into reach.
Makoto silently counts to three and makes a dash for it, moving to snatch the phone from the offending kedans hand and shuffle her way back out of reach.]
Hah! There, I've got it back so... no one needs to get hurt!
[She wanted justice and her phone returned, but physical threats are a little much for her to handle.]
Why don't we all just go on our way and--
[It's then that she notices her coin purse is in the hand of one of the other kedan. That is definitely not okay.]
My money!
no subject
Give the lady back her purse.
[He's not going to bother threatening any more. The order is plain and simple. If not followed, someone's going to have something taken from them, alright.]
no subject
Almost immediately Makoto makes a beeline for the purse, picks it up and checks the contents. Seeing that everything is still there, she breathes a sigh of relief.]
Oh thank god. I was really worried for a second there.
[If she has no money, she can't buy food and food is a priority in her life. Seriously, the girl can eat. Remembering that Shay is there and came to her aid, Mako looks his way and shoots him a nervous smile.]
Um. Thank you!
