Welcome to the Underground test drive meme! This is where you can try out the AU version of your character, start some potential CR and get a feel for the world of the game. Choose your character's species, read up on the available factions and you're ready to go. Put your character's name in your subject line when you post, tag out, and have fun!

Note to current players: Activity in this meme counts as game canon! So you can use it for activity check. If you end up playing anything that you can't or don't want to use as game canon, it's fine to ignore it. (In that case you shouldn't submit it for activity check.)

Here are some prompts to inspire you:

1) LONDON CALLING. People come to London from all corners of the earth. Now you're here and whether you meant to or not, you've been drawn in to the supernatural world. Perhaps you're here to meet other members of your faction. Or perhaps the city's more unusual inhabitants find you first.

2) DARK SIDE. Whether it's animal instincts, a lust for blood or uncontrollable magic, every supernatural being struggles with their darker instincts. Be careful, you may end up doing something you regret.

3) ENEMY TERRITORY. You've found yourself on the wrong side of the tracks. This is enemy territory, you shouldn't be here. Better hope you can sneak your way through without any trouble. Although you have this nagging feeling that you're being followed...

4) GET YOUR SHOVEL. Well, there's a body. Freshly killed, and they didn't come to a natural end. The question is, did you do it or was it someone else? You'd better sort this mess out quickly.

5) STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM. It's the Wimbledon finals, so grab a picnic basket, buy some horribly overpriced strawberries, choose your tennis-themed outfit and get yourself off to SW19. Sure you can handle large crowds? Now is not the time for a supernatural mishap.

6) JUST DANCE. It's a ceilidh! (Barn dance.) Organized by witches but open to all (friendly) newcomers, the dance takes place in an old music hall. There's food, drink, folk music and a magical ritual to bless all young single people attending who are looking for a partner. You never know, your next dance partner might be the one.

7) FULL MOON. (2nd July) Uh oh, it's that time of the month. Werewolves, have you been feeling more aggressive lately? A little short of temper? Better start preparing for your monthly transformation and hope that you don't get interrupted. And then there's the morning after, which feels like a massive hangover. Wait, where are your clothes?

8) CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE. Anything goes.

He was impressed to say the least. Not just by the ferocity that she employed, but the fact that the man actually responded. Clearly this girl was a force of nature. James wasn't sure if he liked that or not.

"Have to do that often?"

He knew he could be heard in the awkward beat of silence between the man letting the door close quietly behind him and the thrum of conversation easily starting back up. Apparently this happened a lot. Enough for regulars to be used to it.

"Now an' then." She puts the broken phone into her apron. Another week without it while she worked on getting it replaced. Or, rather, accepted that she had to go and get another one. Not many places she could go without them recognising her. Oh well. "Anythin' I break or any walls I dent come outta my pay."

Which was more than fair. She wouldn't argue about something like that.

"Haven' had t' actually throw a bottle at someone yet, though."

James tracks the movement of her phone as it disappears into the front pocket of her apron and takes another sip of his whiskey before faintly grimacing at the taste. God it was awful.

"Hopefully you can keep your record clean of bottles."

Not that it would take you long to replace the swill this place sells
