Test Drive - July Edition

[rekindlemods]

The July Test Drive! Trying to see if a character will fit or work in the setting? Need some interaction samples? Well this meme is for you! Make a post, tag around, and most importantly, have fun! Here's the setting page for those who want to learn a little more about the city itself. And don't forget to go reserve your character, GO GO GO.......

Here's some prompts to help you get started, if you need it:

Option 1

[ It looks like there are preparations underway for some sort of festival or fair. There are various stands and booths being erected along sectioned-off streets and the riverbank, and decorations are slowly but surely being hanged. Fireflies seem to be appearing all along the riverbank as the sun sets, with a few stands set up with mason jars of various sizes as well as paper lanterns, possibly as further decorations. Whatever the case, it looks like those setting up could use some help! ]

Option 2

[ Though most of the stands are being set up, that doesn't mean that there aren't a few vendors looking to help those out and about beat the heat in some fashion. There are some selling shaved ice with various flavors, and others that appear to be handing out water-filled balloons or squirt guns. However, like in the market district, there's a catch – the items are free, so long as you arrive at the stall in pairs or groups larger than two. ]

Option 3

[ Whoops. Looks like you haven't taken the cautionary words of the other NPCs to heart, or maybe you just wanted to take your chances. Either way, the withdrawal symptoms have started and you need to find someone to hug quickly before you get even more sick.]

Option 4

[If there's something else you wanted to play with, that you didn't see here, then have fun with that. You've just arrived in a strange city, after all. There's got to be plenty to explore out and about, not to mention people to meet.]

"Nice to meet you, Drax. So how are you liking Saeng Seong so far?"

[willcatchmetaphors]

Drax looks thoughtful. "It is a pleasant prison-city. I have been in worse. I don't understand why they put me here."

Some planets like to do penal cities, so their criminals are accomplishing something and maybe reforming. This is a city he arrived in unconscious, without his friends, and with no way back to the Milano. He can't leave and all the exits are guarded.

But do those other planets have kangaroos in theirs?

"Yeah, it's the nicest prison I've been in, but a prison nonetheless. Supposedly each time we non-natives touch it generates energy that they're using to restore their world, but I'm almost certain they're not telling us the whole story."

Also: the exits are guarded? That's going to stop him?
