Test Drive for August 2014 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for high_seas! Here is where new players can test out their characters' voices, old players can try out new muses, and everyone can help each other get some threads for their applications! Feel free to use one of the prompts below, or come up with something on your own! Comment around, have fun, and remember that any CR formed here does not carry over to the game!

See you during the application round!

♦ So you're new to this world and have just woken up in the Town Square. How do you react? What do you do?

♦ You're lost at sea. Maybe you got separated from your crew. Or perhaps you're on an abandoned island. You need help!

♦ "Pirates off the starboard bow!" It's an enemy ship! Attack!!

♦ You and your crew are hanging out on your ship. Just another day at sea!

♦ "LAND, HO!" Hey look, a new island! How about you go explore it? Tell us what you find!

♦ Arrr, here be buried treasure, but not all that glitters is gold! Will ye be telling your mateys what ye found, or keeping it for yourselves?

Almaz von Almandine Adamant - Disgaea 3

[abravelikehero]

A: Abandoned Island; Journal Voice]

HELP!

[The cry was pitiable and desperate.]

I don't know what's going on and I can't find anyone. I... I don't want to die alone here.

[He starts to sniff, yes he is about to cry.]

[B: Town Square]

[Almaz can be found wandering around frantically near the fountain.]

Um... what's going on? I'm really confused.... especially by my title suddenly being Pirate Demon! It was bad enough when it was just a demons title, but now a pirate! I don't want to be a pirate! I'm a hero! A hero can't be a pirate!!!!!

A!

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

For shame! What kind of hero oozes such thin watery juices when squeezed in a waffle iron of adversity? Instead of collapsing like so much greasy dough, you should be baking to a rich and powerful golden brown!

[abravelikehero]

S-Sensei!

[Now he's about to cry with joy.]

But... but I'm not quite sure what to do about the... waffle iron.

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

Hyahya, a waffle cannot do anything about a waffle iron! It is its fate to be pressed! Instead, you should worry about what kind of waffle you will become!

[abravelikehero]

But I don't want to be a waffle! I want to get back to civilization!

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

So you no longer wish to be a hero, cooked spicy hot and fierce over the flames? Are you content to be a soggy noodle left clinging to the pot while your al dente companions are mixed with the sauce of triumph?!

[abravelikehero]

N-n-no! I WANT TO BE A HERO!

But I think I'm getting lost....

[kitchenfistfirechaosstyle]

How can you be lost, when you are standing right where you are? You know exactly where you are! It is everything else that has gone missing. That is an important distinction!

[abravelikehero]

Either way... I need to be where everything else is.

B!

[planeptune]

Oh, ouch! That's rough, buddy! Sorryyyy looks like you're not gonna be a hero until your next class change. [ She doesn't sound sorry at all. ]

As for what's going onnnn, I'm guessing you just showed up here? Because hey, me too! We can be total and complete newbies together! But I mean, this is pretty typical for the start of a game, don'tcha think? Fall out of the sky, completely new place, new class, maybe a level reset, that sorta thing.

B!

[abravelikehero]

I can't change my class though!!!

But... I don't remember reincarnating, starting the game fresh should keep me where I was... level wise anyway.

Ah! But then, this is somewhere new....

HOW DID I END UP IN A DIFFERENT GAME!?

Could it be... is it possibly....!?

AM I A GUEST DLC CHARACTER OR SECRET BONUS ONE!?

[Oh his dreams, his dreams and false hopes.]

I haven't had a part like that since that SSP port.

B!

[planeptune]

Well, I'm the main character obviously, so I guess that makes you the "special preorder bonus" sidekick character.

Hm, you look kind of wimpy for that though. Is this really what sells nowadays? Where's the appeal? You're just going to be switched out of the party as soon as I have more party members you know.

B!

[abravelikehero]

Wh-what!? I'm more useful than that!!! I'm part of the main cast in my game you know, I'm introduced in the first chapter and am the second playable character!

B!

[planeptune]

Hmmmm.... Hmmmmmm....

Nope, I just don't see it. Are you sure you're not pulling my leg here? Although I guess you did mention that your original class is Hero...

.....All right, you can join my party for now. I'll see how it works out!

The name's Neptune, by the way, CPU of Planeptune!

B!

[abravelikehero]

Ah... a pleasure to meet you. My name is Almaz von Almandine Adamat!

And I promise you won't regret it!

A

[sarashi]

Stop blubberin'! What kinda man are ya?!

[SMH]

A

[abravelikehero]

One scared of starving to death on a deserted island!

[sarashi]

You aren't gonna starve t'death. Look around you. There anythin' growin' on the trees? On the ground? Anything?

[abravelikehero]

I'm not going to just eat something I picked off the ground!

Though... looking around, maybe I should clean up a bit. It seems messy.

[sarashi]

Are you kiddin'? You're gonna die if ya don't lower yer standards. You're not on vacation, y'know!

[abravelikehero]

But what if I get sick!

Oh, look a pineapple.

[sarashi]

Well see, there ya go. Step one.

Now, how're you gonna slice it?

[A]

[insaneorders]

[Talking books. What a concept.

...wait a second...]

There's only one voice I know that sounds that pathetic. Almaz?

[Oh hey, it's your friendly neighborhood Salvatore.]

[abravelikehero]

Am I really that pathetic to you!?

B-but still, I'm so happy to hear your voice! I need help!

[insaneorders]

I call them as I see them.

[So yes. Though thankfully she's not completely heartless.]

Are you in some sort of actual danger?
