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!

Giselle | Enchanted
[It's earlier in the day just after her arrival, and after a bout of confusion and feeling sorry for herself that lasted entirely too long, Giselle has decided that she's determined to make the best of this. Robert will come for her--no, Edward will come for her. Someone will come for her, surely. In the meantime, she has a wonderful opportunity to explore this new city and learn about all the new things it has to offer. Just like New York!
She's not too sure about the food just yet. New York food smelled a lot better, and it didn't move quite so much.
After smiling at yet another friendly merchant trying to get her to buy something, Giselle feels a tap on her arm and turns to face an older kedanese woman. The old woman's accent is a little hard to understand, but after a moment Giselle thinks she has the gist of it.]
Oh, you like my dress? [She smiles brilliantly] That's so kind of you, thank you. I can't tell you how much I needed to hear something like--
[But the old woman is shaking her head, and saying something else. Slowly Giselle's smile fades.]
You... you want my dress? I... well, I'm flattered of course, but I-- I mean, I don't have anything else to-- Maybe I could make one for you?
[The old woman puts a hand on Giselle's arm again, and the redhead blanches.]
I'm sorry, I don't--
8. Illicit substances + Disney princess
[Giselle has been wandering Keeliai all day, and she's no closer to discovering why she's meant to be here. Robert isn't here. Neither is Morgan, or Edward, or Pip. So she's lost and alone, again, and more confused than ever.
She's also never heard of illegal substances. So when the friendly kedan offers her a packet of colorful crystal and explains that it will help make her smile again, her natural inclination is toward enthusiasm. She could use a smile. She's so tired of being unhappy. Lost. Confused. Angry.
The kedan has explained how one is meant to use the crystal and then beat a hasty retreat, so now Giselle is standing in an alley in Keeliai with Lucid in her palm. Please someone stop her.]
[can do brackets or prose, whichever is preferred]
8!
[Normally he just let these things play out but she seems to have no idea what she's getting into. People really were funny things, weren't they...?]
One might find the promise of happiness so easily obtained -
[He paused. He drew it out for as long as it was dramatically convenient.]
- suspicious.
5
[The voice comes from a man, leaning against a nearby stall, grin on his face.]
I mean, I know you're out to make a few bob, but really? Maybe next time you need someone to check your back, we might ask for something a bit more in return, eh?
[The kedan, known as Shufen, gives the man a glare, before removing her hand from Giselle's shoulder and backing off, mumbling apologies in Kedanese and bowing her head as she retreats.
Once she's gone, the man pushes himself up from the wooden support.]
You okay, love?
5.
Sorry to disappoint you, ma'am, but I'm afraid this pretty lady needs her dress for an upcoming dance. Besides, some treasures are best admired when they're out of reach.
[ and then to Giselle with a sweeping bow ]
Shall we, my lady?
