Test Drive Meme | #44


TEST DRIVE MEME - TU SHANSHU EDITION!

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!
  1. 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!

  2. 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...?

  3. 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...

  4. 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!

  5. 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?

  6. 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.

  7. 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...

  8. 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?

  9. 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??

    (Please note: This scenario isn't applicable to becoming game canon if you choose to app your character, as an alien pterosaur attack is a major event.)

  10. 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!

Peter knew trouble when he heard it, like a storm rumbling in the distance of the Rockies. He'd been out in the market, trying to get himself some local clothing to help himself blend in and getting nowhere. He looked up from a silk shirt he was contemplating at a stall when he heard Let go of me in a really harsh way.

It was instinct. Peter dropped the shirt and ran off in the direction of the commotion, slipping out of his red ocher jacket along the way. He slid to a stop by what was very clearly an angry biker and the Kedan, holding the jacket out.

"Hey, hey. Take a look at this. Thing's completely fire, water, and windproof. I've only had the thing for a month and it's gotten hit with at least three blasts of laser fire." Peter grinned, though internally he was already regretting this; all he had been wearing under the jacket was a white a-shirt, and then the silver armband holding his soul gem was now bare too.

"I'll sell it to you for 300." The Kedan was eyeing him up, at first as if he were crazy, but then he was letting go of the other guy's jacket and going back to his stall to seemingly get the juulan without haggling. Peter breathed a sigh of relief.

Jax glares at the retreating back of the kedan, before looking at his rescuer.

"Thanks." He mumbles, before nudging Peter's shoulder with his. "Let's get outta here. I won't let ya sell your coat to save mine."

He's nodding further into the crowds.

Peter shifts a wary look from the kedan to the biker and back again. He hates to cut out on a deal, but this jacket has become something of a favorite item of his lately. He'll have to remember this place and make it up to the shop owner.

"Yeah, right. Drink? Looks like it's been a rough day all around." Peter quickly slips his jacket back on and starts moving.

"Yeah. Drink." Jax agrees, shifting, settling his kutte back on his shoulders a bit more squarely. Just because he was dead and, technically, excommunicated doesn't mean anyone gets a hold of the club's color.

"You know a place? I just got here." He moves to follow. "Name's Jax, by the way. Thanks for that."
