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 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...
- Let's play cops and robbers!
Local law enforcement is handled by the Keeliai Police Department, an organization of both Foreigners and kedan dedicated to keeping the peace in the turtle... and they're about to make a raid on a large, illegal gambling ring! Are you going to collar the nearest bad guy, or are you one of the high rollers now looking to make a quick escape? Or a bookie who's now getting booked downtown?
- 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.
- Bribery will get you everywhere!
With the city's leadership structure built around 9 Guilds, newly arriving Foreigners can be seen a high-value commodity. Each of the Guilds wants to attract new members, and they're willing to sweeten the deal if they think it will swing a choice their way! The Merchant's Guild might offer city-wide discounts in shops, or Natural Resources guild might promise first pick from food deliveries. Of course, enterprising Foreigners are welcome to try and haggle for their own deals!
- 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??
(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.)
- 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!

Alec Trevelyan | uhhh he's probably an OC these days
[The man with the phoenix mark over the burn scar on the right side of his face looks more...exasperated than anything, which is kinda weird for a newbie. He sounds exasperated, too.]
Has anyone seen a girl, answers to Callahan, about this tall [he holds his hand about 5'4" off the ground], wears a cat-ear headband with bells, extremely annoying? I believe we've been separated.
video; eheheh
Maybe you should consider the separation a good thing, if she's so annoying.
[Devin, no.]
video; quick, throw aly at him and run away
...if I say I'm "responsible" for her, does that make me liable for anything she does?
that's not a bad plan
Are you her guardian or something else?
no subject
[Devin, don't make him wince. He still feels bad about that. At least his poker face is good.]
no subject
[He's taking this in the literal sense, as in not an adult, though he's aware this is not universally true.]
Who or what do you work for that would allow that?
no subject
Although she is quite handy in combat. [This isn't really a Big Daddy and Hit-Girl situation, but man, how kickass would that be? PUN NOT INTENDED.
He sighs.] Sadists. I work for bloody sadists.
no subject
What is it with children getting drawn into fighting? There's a number of teenagers here that really ought to be living their lives.
She's probably able to take care of herself, if she's decent in combat.
no subject
[But who does?]
She probably is, but she's also got the common sense of your average piece of granite. I wouldn't be surprised if she's getting into trouble.
no subject
[He chuckles lightly at the last.]
If that's the case, run towards the nearest emergency, I imagine.
no subject
As I said. Sadists.
[Then he sighs.] I suppose that is my job, for better or worse. Though whether she's causing the emergency or responding to it is anyone's guess.
no subject
It sounds as though you'll find her either way by that method. What will you do if you locate her?
Nina Zenik - Six of Crows
Marketplaces were always the choice places to find a steal, especially for someone as good at haggling as Miss Nina Zenik. She had a way with words.
And when words failed her, batting her eyelashes a few times would usually do the trick.
When she saw it--the shiny gold bracelet adorned with red gemstones--she knew that one day it would be hers. "Oh my gosh!" She said, bounding up to the stall. "I think I have one just like this!" ..Nothing like a little white lie to decrease the value of said item to a merchant, hm?
Enjolras / Les Miserables / wild card / just arrived
Grantaire?
YOU GET BUCKY
You alright?
Woo!
no subject
My name is Bucky Barnes. You're on Tu Vishan. I don't know anyone named Grantaire.
no subject
[He sinks to his knees.]
Where are the others?
no subject
[ Bucky is not the most comforting. ]
Not here.
no subject
no subject
Welcome center is that way. They'll set you up with transportation to the head, if you don't believe me. And no one's figured out a way back. Not yet.
[ His voice hardens. ]
I don't toy with anyone.
no subject
no subject
You need to calm down. Your friends are not here, as far as I know. The Welcome Center would know better.
no subject
no subject
Then get up and I'll take you. But Zatana will tell you the same thing: There's no way to get back. Not yet.
no subject
no subject
Zatanna runs the Welcome Center. She's been here about the longest out of anyone.
no subject
no subject
She's not the only one. But there's magic involved, and I don't pretend to understand it.
no subject
no subject
I said, I don't understand it. Someone cast a spell to drag people here, it works, the caster is dead, and it still works. That's all I know.
The irony is lost on him
no subject
If there is, I haven't heard it yet. C'mon. The Welcome Center is this way.
