Test run meme!

[bravenewmods]

This meme is for people to test out new characters in the Brave New World setting! All threads within this meme can be used for the application sample requirements, a thread with one character with at least 10 comments from your character can be used in place of a first person sample, and two threads with two different characters with at least 10 comments from your character can be used in place of a third person sample. Both samples may be negated in this fashion. Here are a few prompts, feel free to make your own if need be! Have fun!

1. A Wild Pokémon appears! But not just any Pokémon, this one is different. Bigger. Stronger. Angrier. More bizarre? This can be anything from an Aggron to a Lickilicky but it should be fully evolved, big, and not something you can handle alone.

2. You and your fellow trainers have discovered a peaceful field that looks like a sanctuary for Grass Pokémon. Do they leave it in peace, observe, or aggressively Befriend everything?

3. The Old City is spitting up tons of Grimer that are infesting Union. It's nasty and there is panic (and slime) in the streets! What do you do?

4. The Habitat Tower is desperately in need of help for taking care of Fire Pokemon - they need volunteers! You've been provided with some oven mitts. Good luck!

5. Oh god there's a swarm of angry Pokémon and they're all bearing down on you run away!

6. You just passed through a cave and found something marvelous. Perhaps it's a room full of brilliant crystal formations. Perhaps it's a cove to a secluded beach. Perhaps it's a large pre-war mansion buried underground but still mostly intact. What is it and what do you do?

7. Wildcard! Create your own prompt!

Imogen Moreno | Degrassi | Dark/Fairy | Prompt 6

[for_realsies]

*Imogen wasn't entirely sure why a Delver was needed this far outside the city. The Old City was more her thing... while the forests were really nice to look at they didn't have the stuff she usually worked in. Like... elaborate broken transport systems or weird teleporty things.*

Oh wooooow. This is amazing!

*Imogen dashed forward, blurring and fading slightly in her excitement. A proper lab, like... one of the ones from the old days. It wasn't completely intact, but so much of it seemed to have slipped underground that there had to be some stuff still working down there. Imogen was already trying to figure out the best way down.*

Definitely glad I got out bed for this! There has to be something good down there! Help me find a way in!!!

[indy_wannabe]

No problem! We should clear some of this rubble out, it looks like this area right here is relatively safe.

[for_realsies]

But that's way too much work!

Plus there are so many mysteries in there, don't you want to know now!?

[indy_wannabe]

Well yeah, but I also don't want several tons of rock dumped on my head.

[for_realsies]

That almost never happens.

*Imogen makes a face to try and be very convincing she's right. How can you say no to these big sad eyes?*

Besides, upsetting the rocks is usually what causes cave ins. Either because that was a load baring pile of Geo Dude or it was an Onix that values his beauty sleep.

[indy_wannabe]

And that's why I'm saying we should be at least a little bit careful! If we clear the rocks here, we can step back and trigger a small blast. That should cause those rocks over there to slide down and open up an entrance.

[for_realsies]

What makes you think that's a good idea, it'll definitely wake up any napping Onix- um, what's the plural for Onix?

*Imogen stop getting distracted so easily, get back to the point!*

Right, not the point, the point is blowing things up is bad, we might damage some of the loot! And we like loot, it's cool stuff for eggheads to play with!

[indy_wannabe]

Hey, I've got a water type or two. Fact is, this thing's blocked by a crapload of rubble, how do you expect we're gonna get in?

[for_realsies]

Well, if this was the old days, and this place were still up and running, we'd go in through a window!

*We just need to climb to one that opens up. That won't be so hard. Then we smash it and get going.*

I mean, it isn't like anyone will complain about us being uncivilized.

[fellowtraveler]

[For Margot, being a delver was just something to pass the time until she felt her team strong enough to make it in the real world. Being an explorer, out on the open road, so to speak, is far more interesting to her.

She follows along after the girl, hands jammed into her coat pockets, and peers down into the deep ravine that the lab seems to have sunk in. She lets out a low whistle.]

We could always jump.

[A joke. Even Margot isn't that stupid.]

We're delvers, we'll get down there the same way we get down into anything else; climb. That exposed pipe there looks strong enough to hold our weight and there's some roots over there...

[for_realsies]

*Imogen stands on the edge of the pit. Then up towards the sky. There was too much above them to see the sky, and she could feel that daylight was still in the air. It was a fairy thing. On the one hand climbing down seems safest... on the other hand...*

I have a better idea, we could always jump!

*Imogen took four big steps back, then two tiny steps to the left, and dashed off the edge leaping straight for a closed window. Pink spirals of wind danced beneath her feet to carry her just a bit forward before her body oozed dark energy. Which she gathered into her arms and blasted into the window, destroying it and letting her roll into whichever floor she'd crashed into. As usual, Imogen didn't think about what might be in that floor, if that section of building had a floor, if her dark pulse could take out that window, or what she'd do if it couldn't.*

Sometimes you just have to go for it!

[fellowtraveler]

[This is why Margot liked hanging around Immy. She's nuts.

With a grumble, she calls out.] Some of us haven't gotten our flying in yet, you know!

[Beneath her coat were a small pair of wings, nothing to write home about. One day, she would level up and be a flying badass, but that day isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Thankfully the distance between the window and the ravine isn't too far. Giving it no further thought beyond that, Margot dashes forward, tuck-rolling through the broken window.

Shaking glass out of her feather-speckled hair, she looks around, then snaps a small flame into existence.]

One day, you're gonna die and I'm not gonna go to your funeral. Just saying.

[for_realsies]

I don't fly, I just know how to tell gravity to stop bothering me.

*Imogen is already looking at and touching things in the lab space she's found. It doesn't look very promising this seems to be mostly accounting and boring math things. She picks through debris, finding shattered Pokeballs and other oddities from the old world.*

Yes you will, they'll serve little tiny cakes. Nobody can say no to little tiny cakes.

[fellowtraveler]

I can easily say no to cake.

[Margot busies herself going through the drawers of a broken desk. Nothing interesting: some files with the ink worn away, a broken pen, a stapler.]

Have you ever noticed that scientists are kind of boring sometimes?

[for_realsies]

Not just cake, little tiny cakes. They are so much cuter and you can't say no to them!

*Imogen's logic is flawless and you will respect it.*

Well, yeah, have you seen the boring clothes they wear? Those coat thingies they wear in the lab, they do nothing for anyone's figure, and they never highlight the poor soul's eyes. But this looks like office space more than a proper lab.

Clearly we need to try another room!

[fellowtraveler]

But if I'm allergic to cake. I'm totally allergic to cake.

[She snorts a laugh, heading into the next room through a crumbling doorway. It doesn't seem to be much better than the first, but there has to be stairs or some other way down or something.

Maybe there's a sign or -- aha! There's a faded map crumpled up on a desk, torn in places.]

Like, I'm not a fashionista or anything, but their coats are pretty awesome, I don't know what you're talking about. [Coming from the person that always has on a coat of some sort.]

[for_realsies]

*Imogen starts getting teary eyed at the idea that Margot will not eat cake at her funeral.* But... nobody could say no to little tiny cakes at my funeral?

*Imogen now is not the time to use fake tears to make Margot feel extra guilty. Of course once they have a map, there are more important things than fake tears.*

Hmm... *Don't mind the yellow glow to Imogen's eyes as she studies the faded paper.* Fiddlesticks! This place uses teleport panels.

Unlike some of the other places, some of those rooms don't even have doors. We'd need a demolition team, a phantom, or someone who can repower the whole building.

[comparative_insanity]

Whatever my mistress demands~. Hold onto your knickers!

[Look, okay, he hasn't managed the whole "wings" part yet, but you know what he most definitely knows? Telekinesis. Meaning he'll grab her under her arms from behind and then take a flying leap off the ledge, floating towards an open window relatively comfortably. He is also aided a little bit by his Woobat biting on to the back of his shirt and fluttering its tiny wings helpfully.

He creates a barrier outside the window and lands them on it, swinging it open all the way and bowing exaggeratedly with a grin.]

After you, of course.

[for_realsies]

*Imogen smiled and gave Fai a little kiss on the cheek.*

Who said I was wearing any~?

*Okay, so she was actually wearing panties, but it was fun to tease. She held out a hand and a dazzling light shown from her palm to help them explore this place. There didn't seem to be anything on this floor though.*

[comparative_insanity]

Well, I wouldn't dream to just presume such a thing...

[He lowers his eyelashes modestly, which fools absolutely no one, and follows her inside. He blinks a bit in the sudden light, but looks grateful.]

Thank you, not all of us are predisposed to see in the dark. Soooo... how about we work our way down? It looks pretty empty here. [He waves his woobat to him, and it immediately attaches itself to his arm. He barely even flinches.]

[for_realsies]

So you'd dream to verify such a thing~?

*Imogen acts so sweet and innocent when she says such obviously not-so-innocent things.*

I know, not everyone is as fantabulous as I am! Now let's explore this place and find all it's dark hidden secrets! *Imogen was partnerless, but she had a lot more practice with her powers. Plus her Eevee was a baby still.*

[comparative_insanity]

Right now? There is a time and a place, Immy.

[Well, it's not like she's the only one who can say horrid and indecent things with the most seraphic expression. Which is probably why they get along so well, to be honest.]

And I'm all for dark and hidden secrets. We should probably keep an eye open, though, I imagine an old building like this has probably been colonized. [Though by what is still uncertain. He shrugs lightly, grinning.] Then again, that's half the fun. [Onward they go!]

[for_realsies]

I knoooooow. Work first, play when there's less chance of Pokemon attacks. You'll just have to use your imagination for now.

*She really is the sweetest little terror you will ever meet. Imogen practically skips to the door to start looking around the rest of the floor of this building.*

We could start at the first floor, there should be a directory down there. Shame most of the building has sunk and we're about... twelve floors up. All those staaaaiiiirs.

[comparative_insanity]

Luckily my imagination is excellent~.

[I'm sorry, did you say she is a delight and a joy to be around? Because that is definitely Fai's assessment of the situation. He saunters up to a pair of double metal doors that look promising and pummels them with Air Slash until they yield a bit, and then he pushes them open, making a delighted little sound.]

How about taking the elevator? I mean, obviously it's not running, but the steel wire looks pretty intact, we could get down that way. [Jumping headlong down a dark elevator shaft? SOUNDS LEGIT.]

[for_realsies]

It's a highly undervalued skill to have.

*Imogen bounces over to the elevator shaft. She doesn't bother with her light down the shaft. Eyes flashing gold as she looks down into the darkness.*

The elevator is about four floors down and... the break seems to be broken on the left side. But....

*Imogen passes her eyes up the shaft... she can't see to the top, but she sees enough.*

The cable is secure! At least it looks it! I haven't used an elevator shaft in forever, most of the ones in the underground are filled with rocks or monsters. Or both! There's always the ones with both.
