| TEST DRIVE MEME |
01. ARRIVING IN PELEA
A cold wind singing down from the white-capped mountains which hang blue-black in the distance stirs your cheek, the tall grass all around you. A bough creaks as the wind makes it tremble, and the dappled shadows drift over you, leaves rustling. As you blink awake, you hear the quiet hiss of water over stones. You are not where you once were!
You and a large group of strangers are blinking awake, pulling yourselves up off the dirt, grass, and rubble near a small wooded stream. There is no evidence of civilization in sight, and as you exchange stories you realize that you must decide what to do.
Will you head past the trees and towards the mountains? Deeper into the forest? Stay put and wait for help to arrive? You might even try to meet everyone else, and either convince them to band together... or head their separate ways.
02. CITY SLICKER
There are many cities throughout the world of Pelea, and in most of them player characters, the Flaws, are welcomed as curiosities. Whether they're among the passionate, oft thought as hot-headed, but hospitable folk of the Banner or the noble and haughty people of the Empire, your characters will find a wide variety of cultures, races and simply people to interact with and investigate. They could be seeking employment, answers to the mystery of their arrival or other folk like themselves, or a quiet place to drink away their worries.
03. WILDCARD!

03. WILDCARD!
i dont want to know whos squish.
[The smile breaks her out of it. The Emperor never showed his teeth.]
[She regains her composure in seconds. She never really lost it, it just strayed as she stood there like a bantha's ass, lost in time. But now the vacant expression leaves a glare in its wake, and she speaks with the tone of someone accustomed to authority.]
I hope that wasn't an attempt at flattery. [She cocks her head to the side, considering him coldly.] Do I even want to know what you think my talents are?
no subject
[ He waves a hand vaguely, shuffles some papers from his coat. ]
Provincial census.
[ Amazing, the places you can talk yourself into with a bit of money and basic literacy. He's currently licking boots for some minor, unlanded lord — practically a clerk. You can't have too much dignity in these things. ]
no subject
[The Emperor would never linger on weakness in front of another. The thought is a comforting one. She tilts her head, wondering if she should even get herself involved in this, but... well, she is already, isn't she? There are no coincidences in the Force.]
You're here to count heads? [She lets the skepticism bleed into her voice. She's met, even worked with, Imperial beancounters. They usually don't talk back.]
