Test Drive for January 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!

[He shakes his head.] No, I'm fine--wait, a healer? [Are they in a video game?] Ah, I'm sure that a healer wouldn't be able to help, anyway.

[Good, they're on the same page! Gakupo waves a hand dismissively.]

We can figure out where we are in a bit. I want to hear a song!

[level99sage]

No? Well um...can't help you there then.

...right. Not like I'm going anywhere any time soon. [Huff.]

-a song though? [PERK.] Well certainly! It would be my pleasure, sir!

[thepurpleway]

Ah, Gakupo will do, not sir. So give me your best!

[level99sage]

And I, Allegro Nantabile Cantabile never give anything short of my best!!

[As if to punctuate that, he opens with a mean guitar riff on his Stratocaster.]

[thepurpleway]

[Whatever a Stratocaster is, it sounds awesome!]

That's amazing! What sort of instrument is it? [When he's done playing, he'll just lean in to get a better look. He kind of wants one!]

[level99sage]

[It looks and sounds suspiciously like an electric guitar, but surely it can't be because he comes from a fantasy world, hah!]

A guitar, Gakupo! My wonderful Stratocaster! I'd never be anywhere without it!

[thepurpleway]

It's really cool! Such rich sound! How is it working without electricity?!

[level99sage]

Why would it need electricity? -or is it because of my shocking performance!

[Allegro, just stop.]

[thepurpleway]

[Oh, are they resorting to puns now? Gakupo laughs. It's a good reply!]

Ah, yes, it was very lively!

[level99sage]

Why thank you!
