TEST DRIVE MEME

PREMISE PLOT ARRIVAL SETTING NAVIGATION

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!

[ Nature was the first thing that she had going for her when she told him this stuff. So, it was pretty easy in his mind. However, he just kind of frowns at the scattered part. ]

Not surprised there's more but than how do you guys manage to tell each other apart from the people who live here?

[ Since everyone has like human faces and all. As for her question: ]

My clothes. I think it's pretty obvious I stick out and it's not like I can afford anything. You know, not being from here and all.

[braavado]

Some of us show up together. That's how I met some of the others.

[She pauses, shifting her gave pensively to the side.]

The others I met by accident--kind of like what happened with you. We're keeping an eye out for any newcomers. You know...help them out if we can.

[glitchinthesystem]

[ He narrows his eyes, if just a bit suspicious at this woman's apparent selflessness. That usually never comes freely so he tilts his head and folds his arms. If he could look anymore guarded he would develop armour plating. ]

Seems pretty generous of you guys. Whaddya get in return for helping newcomers like me?

[ because there's always some kind of catch.]

[braavado]

[Korra raises her brows at him, clueless about his sudden wariness.]

Uh...nothing? I mean, it'd be great if you helped us keep an eye out for new people like us, too, but that's about it. [The smile she gives him is tired, but genuine.] We don't really know how we got here, or why. That sounds like a good enough reason for all of us to stick together, don't you think?

[glitchinthesystem]

[ He can't really argue with that logic. Considering how cut and dry the situation was at the moment.

If one thing was for certain he wouldn't be making here alive if he stayed by himself. Suppose he'd have to make a reluctant alliance with this girl and others down the line. ]

Yeah, yeah you have a point. Can't really get out of here if we don't know what the fuck is going on.

[ Not one he likes but it's a point. Still, he kind of looks at her appraisingly. Could he trust this girl for the time being? After all, she did kind of save his ass when she could've bolted.

Tentative trust. That's what he'll give for now. In which case he'll extend a hand for a handshake. ]

Glitch. [ This is his way of introducing himself. ]
