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. We also encourage you to check out the "!!event" tag on the IC comms to brush up on the story so far.

Googly eyes don't exactly scream 'spider,' no.

Honestly, nothing about it screams 'spider.' It looks like something a baby would draw if you asked one to do a picture of a bug.

The student thought he could get away with it because it's funny. While it's humorous, it's not what I asked for.

Mordred grows up fast, so my PBs are all different ages LOL

[mordredeschain]

And 'tis not so funny. Just babyish, and babyish won't help you survive.

XD it's all good

[glowing_moon]

Especially not in my class.

[He continues to paint with his fingers. He should really use a brush...]

[mordredeschain]

What are ya making there?

[glowing_moon]

This? It's a sample project for my older students. They'll be tackling watercolor.

[mordredeschain]

Be it of summat, or sheer abstraction?

[glowing_moon]

It'll be of a still life.

[mordredeschain]

As opposed to a moving one?

[glowing_moon]

Yes. Moving subjects are more for my advanced classes and photography.

[mordredeschain]

I see.

[spunfortune]

-Ah! [she hadn't expected that... and then on reflection probably should. Whoops.

Temperature manipulation, huh?]

Lucky.

[glowing_moon]

You want to sign up?

[gwanga]

S'not lucky. It's my ability. -Feeling more confident, he held out his right hand, the mark there glowing just briefly before flames began to form on his palm and fingertips.-

[mordredeschain]

Sure. It sounds interesting enough.

[loyalservant]

Hey, I've kept my mutation a secret for 17 years.

[spunfortune]

Aha, I meant it was lucky you had that ability. Otherwise you'd be in some trouble there-

[her smile hitches a second when she sees the fire... hopefully something bad won't happen to ignite the whole forest, but hey, paranoia...]

[gwanga]

-It goes away in a flash, though, his body looking significantly less cold... but still kind of damp. Steamed, even. Well, we can't all be winners.-

I am Hugo.

[spunfortune]

[TRUE THAT. at least the fire is gone now. Fire + Misfortune Magnet + Woods... nnnnot the best of combinations. She blinks as she realises introductions are being made]

-Ah; Hina. [have a curtsy]

[wickedwe8weweave]

Hrm...point. You can live for now.

[loyalservant]

I knew you were merciful.

[wickedwe8weweave]

I can be.

[loyalservant]

But you'd kill me if you had to. [this is not a question, it's a statement and he doesn't seem bothered by it in the least, he knows he can somewhat defend himself. Would he kill if need be, maybe. Probably. If he really had to.]

[wickedwe8weweave]

[She nods.] If I needed to. I'd expect the same of anyone else.

[loyalservant]

Not everyone thinks like that, I didn't always. It's weird thinking about killing people, I'd rather not do it if I don't have to.
