TEST DRIVE MEME: JUNE + JULY EDITION

Welcome to bravenewworld's test drive meme! This post is designed to help players test out their characters within the setting, as well as give them an opportunity to collect samples for their future application. The prompts below are all optional, and can be used to get a feel for the game, but we encourage players to get creative and use this post however best suits their needs. Players are encouraged to use either first person or third person for their threads.

When creating a thread, it is advised that players give their prospective thread partners a bit of information in the subject line, such as the characters name and canon, or a possible typing and Enlightened ability (if this is applicable). These are not required, but will make it easier for any prospective players to thread with you.

THIS CYCLE'S PROMPTS
#1 Refuge has opened its gates to the people of Union, Caldera and Citadel, in the most hospitable way they feel possible: A party. Some have come to explore the expansive underground city, but mostly, word has spread about how Refuge's brews are on point. They don't seem to discriminate on age, either.

#2 The city of Caldera is starting a major production project and they need workers. The forges are constantly going day and night and the pay's good, but it's hot, hard work that'll leave you tired and achy to say the least.

#3 The Summer Solstice festival has begun in Citadel. The tree is in full bloom, with flowers of every color dot its branches. This week-long celebration brings together the various tribes that call Citadel its home through music, dancing and, of course, fighting. There is a tournament set to begin, boasting some of the strongest Valkyries that Citadel has ever known among the combatants.

#4 The heat has really gotten to the people of Union, and as a result many have moved south for a weekend get-away in the Archipelago and the larger Island. The sand is warm and the water is too, but doesn't the beach seem a bit crowded for a once seemingly deserted area?

#5 Wildcard! Come up with your own prompt!

If you have any setting questions, or want to do some reading before posting a thread, you can find the setting directory here! Happy tagging!

No more than any other Pokémon is. I'm sure this was only an accident.

[ which is to say, it has the potential to be dangerous, just don't provoke it? but— shouldn't this... stranger... know that already? even if he's talking to her, he sure looks like a Pokémon himself. ]

Here, I'll help it back up. [ she steps towards it and pauses, cautious. after a moment's consideration, she activates her Warp Band; she should... probably try to communicate that she doesn't mean any harm before she touches a Pokémon known for self-destruction. ] As long as it doesn't explode on me, that is...

[Well he certainly thinks Elizabeth is rather kind since she's so willing to help the poor Pineco back into the tree, but there was one little fact that Teddie couldn't quite ignore.] It can explode!?

[He starts flailing his arms, still loud as ever.] If it can explode then it's probably best to stay beary far away from it! [Who knows what sort of damage it could cause!]

Co. [The Pineco eyes Elizabeth with uncertainty. No funny business!]
