THE TEST DRIVE MEME




Hello, True Believers!

This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the applications open, see what clicks. Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun!


Be sure to read up on all game information and the "!event" tag to make sure you have all your ducks in a row.

[Such brazen use of powers is unusual for her, so she narrows her eyes as first the window, then the shoelace changes. Transformative powers of some sort, that much was obvious, but what was the catalyst? Did this boy even need one?

When Feliks turns back, Grell is all smiles, clapping softly.

Much better.

And that is quite the interesting little trick you have. May I ask how?

Huh?

[Oh, right, his power. He's been at the school for years, which means he knows most people, so most of them don't ask these days.]

Oh, that? Um, how... Basically, like, I just... look at a thing, and imagine it's different? And then I'm like, "yeah, let's do that!" and the thing does that, at least until I go away or forget about it.

[He's a mild reality warper, is basically what he's saying. He seems pretty blase about it.]

Fascinating. [And she actually means that for once. Sarcasm is replaced with genuine interest as she inspects Feliks's handiwork. Someone who didn't have to train nearly as hard at mastering their power is someone good to know for one reason or another.]

So you can do just about anything, then?

Pretty much!

[Well, there are limitations -- he needs something to work with, and it has to be something he can imagine, and it's harder when someone else is touching the thing he wants to change and doesn't want it changed, and he's got to be physically present with it and able to see or envision it... But why go adding caveats into the explanation? They're unlikely to come up, and anyway, he's enjoying showing off. He grins, bouncing from one foot to the other in heels that would be sort of precarious for most.]

Like, it's easier to use for defense or just doing cool stuff, but I can fight with it, too, in a pinch!

[You know. Because he can think a broom into a spear.]
