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!

AND REMEMBER, RESERVES OPEN AUGUST 3RD!


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

When Cerxis' explanation first began, Joss imagined a circle of pre-Colombian Sioux women around a fire knitting their way through calculations, even though she didn't know for sure that Sioux women did so. When it was done she felt disconnected like she had gone back one thousand years in the past, yet connected to something else.

She shook her head a little so she could speak again.

"Wow. That's mighty sophisticated fer somethin that's got no electricity.I guess tech comes in all forms." Joss looked up to Cerxis.

"Can ya show me more?"

"You can learn," agreed Xat-Cerxis. "Hold some string! Watch my fingers. Watch shape. I will tie and you will follow." Slowly, Xat-Cerxis made some loops and then tightened them up by pulling on the edge of the thread. They made a simple knot. "One, two, three, four, five!" she counted as more tiny knots appeared. "Imagine every knot is a llama! We have five llamas! It is good to keep track," she said as if that explained everything about her counting system.

"Dam right it's good ta keep track of them llamas. There always tryin ta get out of their fence and cause all sorts a rucks. Dang those thangs bite."

Joss smiled after her statement to show she ment no offence. She then brought her gaze back to Cerxis' work.

"Can I try now?"
