This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before the game opens, see what clicks. Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun! Feel free to consult the institute tour and dorm guide for setting info.

A trigger is anything that make a pers9n relive an unf9runate, and ususally, traumatic event in their life.

It's a terri6le thing.

C9mm9n triggers include, but are n9t limted t9 (I w9uld l99k away if y9u think y9u might have any): incest, a6use, racism, mis9gyny (th9ugh s9me pe9ple might claim that misandry is 9ne t99, if it exists,) ableism, parental a6and9nment (A tricky 9ne as many mutants here seem t9 suffer fr9 that,) anything that ends with -ism and s9 forth. They sh9uld be av9ided as much as p9ssi6le, lest things 6ec9me pr96lmatic.

[If one can somehow hear eyes glazing over through text, then that sound would be here. In fact there's a delay in response as Masaru has to look up a few words. Finally:]

Oh.... so basically don't be a dick.

A 6lunt and fairly 9verly 6r9ad definiti9n 9f it, 6ut yes.

As a rule 9 thum6 th9ugh, y9u sh9uld ask a69ut a pers9n triggers 6ef9re engaging in a length disc9urse with them.

N9, usually the first time sh9uld suffice. Th9ugh if it's 6een a while it w9uld be prudent and a wise idea.

Y9u can never be t99 safe, since pe9ple d9 change.
