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.

[Video] first thought was that he looks like Dr. Phil XD

[Have a red-headed kid who looks more than a little on the smug side as he responds. Be thankful you can't smell him over the network; the only time he ever does anything like bathing is when he goes swimming in the lake.]

I've already got plenty of street skills. Don't need a class for that.

[Video] you can't know how sad reading that made me

Oh, yeah?

[Al does not bother making his "I'm just so damn impressed" tone carry over to his face. Or sound anywhere near sincere for more than about a quarter-second.]

Well, good for you. Guess that's one less class you've gotta be saddled with, and one less teenager I've gotta teach not to get his head caved in.

[Video] it's only that first icon tho. none of the others make me think that

[Apollo will ignore that tone for now.]

I don't go down that easy!

[Video] oh thank god

And I'm sure a smart kid like you wouldn't want to turn studying shit you've already learned by experience into a weekly obligation. Waste of both our fucking time.

No, best you stick to biology and language arts or whatever other classes they shove you into around here. I wouldn't hear of boring you with my bullshit.

Ain't like any of the other stuff they're teaching is any better. It's a whole bunch of useless shit I'll never need to know.

Then I guess you oughta tell Xavier you're ready to head out on your own or put on one of those gaudy uniforms he likes.

I'm sure he'll be impressed that you've already got all of life's skills figured out.

I need him to help find the bastard who took my friends, so I can't leave yet.

All you need to know to live's how to get food and water and find a good spot to sleep. Everything else's extra.
