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!

Down went the foot, the apple crnching underneath. Another few steps and she'd managed to get close enough to speak without shouting, one arm raising to salute.
"Sir."
Military professionalism kept her from betraying her relief. Maybe now she'd get some real answers.
no subject
He crossed his hands behind his back as he covertly sized up the Captain's less than immaculate state of dress. There was a distinct smell to her armour, too, but he wasn't going to embarrass by commenting on it. "You seem to have run into some trouble, Captain. I assume it has been taken care of?"
He had every trust that it was taken care of, you didn't make Captain Phasma look like she had rolled around in garbage and got away with it.
no subject
...though, the source of it wasn't exactly any better. No, I was trapped in the trash compactor and now I'm here. Also, I lowered the Starkiller shields. She pushed this to the side, speaking slowly and carefully. "Unfortunately, I wasn't presented the opportunity before finding myself elsewhere. From what I understand, this is...not uncommon."
no subject
"From when were you taken?" he asked bluntly. "Do you know what became of Starkiller Base? I have been taken from several days after." If she didn't know, he would rather not be the one to tell her what had become of the weapon.
no subject
Not for the first time, she curses herself for lowering her guard. Something happened, and she had played a part in it.
"It was being assaulted. The shields...had just been lowered." If need be, she'll debrief her particular involvement in that later, but...not here. Not now.
no subject
"As you can imagine, the Resistance pilots made good use of the shields being lowered," he began, deciding to go about this as delicately as he could. Many Stormtroopers had been lost that day, and while their lives meant little to him, Phasma might feel differently. "We were able to evacuate key personnel, and escape with the Finalizer."
no subject
So as she walked with him, that surge of guilt and frustration swelling within her did not cause a single slip in her pace. She was silent for a few moments, ensuring that it was held tightly, but such could easily be chalked off to her digesting this news.
"I see," she finally said. "Was anything salvageable?"
no subject
There was a niggling of curiosity within him, wondering what was hidden beneath Phasma's iron control. Nobody he knew was as controlled as her, and yet he was certain even she had to be hiding something more. But he had never satisfied his curiosity, and he didn't plan to do so now. To keep your thoughts and feelings your own was a privilege, and she had certainly earned it.
Kylo Ren pulled himself back together, lips pressed into a thin line. "No," he finally said. "The weapon is lost." He didn't quite manage to sound properly crushed. "Weapons are fragile."

She greived...and then moved on. Losses had been had before. There would be more. And though she had played a part in this one, more important was her part in the recovery. "Weapons are replaceable," came her counterpoint. "We will rebuild. And we will have our vengeance."
She would have vengeance for the one who had caused all this.
"I expect the Supreme Leader is already planning the next moves," Phasma continued. "What are ours, here? "
no subject
But complaining about that wouldn't get him anywhere, and he'd already resigned himself to the inevitability of his current fate. It helped that this place offered certain opportunities.
"You'll have to speak to General Hux about his plans in detail, he has plans for the local gangs which hold the power around here. This place is currently lacking in the necessary order. I'm trying to gain information as well, but my focus is on furthering my training as well as I can here." He gave her a pointed look, adding, "I believe we can agree I'm more use as a Force user than as a diplomat."
no subject
"You are an Enforcer, Ren. If I understand the situation, then your skills would be better suited towards encouraging that order, whether through Hux's gangs or more direct means." Such as, you know. Violence. The sort of things Phasma was also good at, though not nearly as well as a Force user. But considering such...
"What are the threats?"
no subject
"Several of the First Order's enemies are here, and more enemies of mine... Jedi." And family. "The people from our world are solely supporters of the Resistance or its predecessor, with a few loyalists to the Old Republic. As you can see, my training takes precedence to Hux's plans."
no subject
"How, then, could those plans assist your training?"
And if it's at all possible, can you two at least try to get along?
no subject
Which was, actually, a sobering thought. Damn. "We no longer have the luxury of having quarters and meals provided," he said, more solemn now, "and as you might have noticed this place lacks a First Order garrison. Right now most of our plans revolve on securing the basics"
no subject
Quarters and meals would certainly help with that. "I did notice," she dryly confirmed. "What do you require from me?"
