TEST DRIVE MEME JULY 2012

Test Drive Meme

For the reserves period between June 22, 2012 to September 13, 2012.
[App Form] [Reserves Page]

This meme is here to let prospective characters mingle ICly with the characters already in the game and each other. It helps us introduce various scenarios that you're likely to encounter in Soul Campaign and the different places used in the game. Hopefully, this helps you figure out if the game is really suited to your needs or not -- otherwise, just have fun!

The scenarios for this cycle are:
1. The BREW summons you into the Kishin Chamber during a power outage, along with a bunch of other strangers.
2. You're trapped in a blizzard during a mission to Greenland, and must now huddle with your partner for warmth. Your partner may or may not be someone you know.
3. You've intercepted an important piece of intel about the way to enter the witches' realm. It's kind of really embarrassing, however. Maybe you should try it out first to see if it's true?
4. Shortages are not uncommon during wars, and this time around the entire city has run out of coffee/tea/[insert character's favorite substance]. What lengths will you go to to get your fix?
5. There's a perfect mission for you on the mission bulletin board! The problem is, you're required to crossdress as your opposite gender.

Just choose any one randomly, or make up your own, we don't mind! To make things simpler, please follow this subject line:

[CHARACTER NAME | CANON or FANDOM CHARACTER IS FROM | MEISTER OR WEAPON | SCENARIO# (or indicate if it's a new scenario)]

For example: [SPIRIT ALBARN | SOUL EATER | WEAPON | #1]

For OOC discussions and generally just chatting around, please head over here.

Here's the Soul Campaign Navigation Page for all the other information you need.

As an extra note, you may add your TD threads to your application although it is not a requirement to do so and will not count towards activity checks. Please place it under the Notes section if you do.

[Six is quiet, trying to find a way to recover the situation. In the end, he nods questioningly to the coffee. It's not just an offering of a refill. It's an apology.]

[incinerare]

[Roy nodded and extended the mug back toward the other man.]

Thanks. [For both things, though he doesn't really blame the man for the mood killing. He'll have to deal with the issue eventually, but for now he can possibly put it away to be dealt with later. For now let's try changing the topic.]

You said earlier you weren't sure if I was a Weapon or a Meister... from what I've been told, I'm apparently a Meister. What are you, if you don't my asking?

[sixthdeadliest]

A Meister. [After refilling both mugs, he walks back and holds out the other man's mug.] I've actually been working with Hughes off and on, but it's not an ideal situation. We can work together, but I generally don't use firearms. It's a rather large adjustment.

[incinerare]

[He takes the mug with a nod of thanks. That's another thing which is something to get used to, the fact that people actually turn into weapons, literally here.]

What do you usually work with?

[sixthdeadliest]

[Oddly enough, Six was used to that. Or at least he was used to partial transformations.]

Traditional weaponry, largely swords.

[Old school. Very old school.]

[incinerare]

[Roy's only experience with a person changing their appearance was a rather bad one, involving a monster he'd rather not think of currently if ever again.]

Ah. I've used a sword before, but mostly I'm more familiar with guns and alchemy.

[Though he's largely limited to guns and what abilities this world has given him, since he couldn't actually use his alchemy here.]

[sixthdeadliest]

Guns I can understand, but alchemy?

[Pardon the skeptical eyebrow.]

[incinerare]

[Considering what he thinks of things in this place, he can understand the skeptical eyebrow. If he'd still been home and merely heard of these things, he'd be skeptical too.]

Yes. It's rather common for the most part where I'm from, though while anyone could study it, you need an aptitude for it to actually use it. Most alchemists can use it to create simple things ranging from making small figurines, toys, repairing things, some can even use it for healing. While I could do that, my specialty was more combat based for the most part. I could produce fire...provided it wasn't raining.

[He paused and considered continuing but decided he'd make sure he hadn't lost the man or rather to make certain that the man actually wanted to hear more about it.]

I can explain how it works to a degree if you want. It's largely science based despite it's looks...though a number of people back home seem to think it magic due to everything it's capable of.

[sixthdeadliest]

Please do.
