Test Drive for April 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!

[Oh, he was waiting for her move. That look on her pretty face didn't quite say that she was going to stand by and watch him do it, after all.

He sweeps his blades across him well before reaching Kodachi, sending an electric bolt charging the air as it flies towards her, simultaneously breaking him off of his initial dive. Masamune lands on the railing of the stern of the ship, still grinning.]

Huh, you're pretty serious.

[Kodachi didn't expect that he would feint. She tried to roll away, but not in time to avoid the crackle of electricity. She was fast, and she could move in the blink of an eye, but she wasn't fast enough to escape lightning. The bolt threw her across the deck, slamming her back against the mast.]

[She gasped sharply, clutching her side as she propped herself up into a sitting position.]

Where did you learn that? [She looked up at him from where he was standing on the railing. If she could move, she would have retreated; she knew defeat when it came, as much as she hated it.]

[Still kicking. She's a strong woman, if a little crazy, he'll give her that.

Masamune hops down, walking towards her.]

Self-taught. If I'm gonna rule the country, I ain't piggy-backin' off anyone, whether it's by techniques or alliances. You see?

[cherrybombpie]

[Kodachi stood up as he walked toward her, but not without difficulty.]

[She eyed him carefully. He was certainly wearing Date Masamune's famous armor, and the way he talked . . .]

Are you really him?

[put_yur_guns_on]

I said it before, didn't I? Although being around here is cramping my style. How's a guy s'pposed to take over Japan when they're nowhere near it?
