Test Drive Meme: August/September 2016

"" (Watch on YouTube)

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 and canon 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) HOUSE OF FUN. Whether it's your first time in London or you've lived here all your life, you hear that this is the place to be for someone like you. A place to let loose, have fun, and embrace your true nature, whatever that may be.

2) THE LION'S DEN. And this is not the place to be. This is the enemy's camp and if they catch you...

3) IT'S QUICKER IF YOU RUN. So here's the game: you run, they chase. You might even escape, with a bit of luck... or maybe some help.

4) THE GREAT BRITISH BAKE-OFF. Be inspired and make some cupcakes, attend a cake sale, or try home-baking with your friends. Who says supernatural creatures can't have a sweet tooth?

5) SUMMER = BBQ. Another great British tradition: the moment the sun appears, it's time to get out the barbecue and enjoy some slightly-burnt burgers and hotdogs. With summer fading, what are you waiting for?

6) THE CHEMIST. Even creatures of the night occasionally require a visit to the pharmacy. Bit awkward when you recognise a fellow supernatural being waiting for a prescription though...

7) STUCK ON THE TUBE. The Underground would like to apologise for the delay to this service. It's probably a signal failure. Not a supernatural trap or anything, nope.

8) CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE. Anything goes.

"Who else would it be, lass?" Edward snorted, rolling his eyes. "Caroline ain't been here since before you were a wee thing nibblin' your da's ankles."

He recognizes her a bit, more in the face and voice than by name. Exciting times those, back when battles waged across the rooftops and streets.

"I'd offer you a drink, but I don't know where they keep the china anymore."

Evie smiles at that- she knows there's little chance he'd ever met her father in life, but she likes the idea that a man of Kenway's caliber would have known Ethan. Assassins- you had to stick together.

"It's quite alright, but I appreciate the gesture." She knows it's stupid to offer him her hand when he can't shake it, so she simply chooses to nod. "I'm not sure if you remember me- I'm Evie Frye."

"A bit, aye, but there's lots of folks come tromping through here." He shrugs, leaning against a doorframe. "Place has been lots of things since Caroline died, but I'm putting my foot down over the nonsense they're thinkin' of doin' with it now."

Splitting it all up for pencil pushing offices was the limit, apparently. Though it certainly isn't as bad as if it was a bunch of lawyers moving in.

"This is a home, Evie."

[freelife]

Evie purses her lips, shaking her head. She didn't like it, either. She knew what significance this building held, not just for her, but for others.

"Not just any home- yours." Though he no longer lived, it was his resting place. She could respect that. She could not respect the destruction of another historical building.

"Perhaps there's something we could do." Option one: a good old fashioned haunting. Option two: "I wonder if we couldn't work something out with the Brotherhood."
