TEST DRIVE MEME

Considering apping into MASK OR MENACE? Want to dip your toes into the setting and get a feel of whether your character will fit into it? Or maybe you're just cruising and want to play around? Then you've come to the right place!

Pick any of the following scenarios below or feel free to make up your own, but don't be afraid to throw yourself at anyone's thread, either!

And remember to have fun!

01. Your memory is hazy and you might feel increasingly frustrated or anxious, or maybe you're excited as soldiers march past, barely glimpsing you. One second you're somewhere underground, the next you're enveloped in blue light, and suddenly you find yourself directly under Florida sun's bright and burning glare. A female soldier steps toward you with a wide smile on her face and directs you to a car, ready to debrief you. You realize you are not the only one, surrounded by equally confused or eager faces... and you're all sporting a digital tattoo on your wrist.

02. Welcome to Cape Canaveral, where the smell of the ocean is in the air and locals are more than pleased to see new imPorts roaming their streets. They wave, they cheer, they ask for pictures as politely as they can. The more inhuman you look, or if you're wearing a costume, the more likely locals are to approach. Hey, enjoy the moment! The popular malt shop is offering you a free drink if you need it.

03. The technology in this world is certainly something. The cars are clearly modeled after popular 50s cars, but they hover several feet above the ground as they drive down the street. There are digital jukeboxes in restaurants, motorcycles also hover through traffic, advertisements can be seen on a digital projector on the taller buildings. Even kids on skateboards appear to drift a safe ten feet off the ground while playing!

04. Wherever you are, you can hear the loud revving of an engine, distance at first before you finally see it: a hovercar bursting around the corner, going beyond the maximum speed limit and just barely making its sharp turn. It doesn't appear to be slowing down any time soon, not with two police cars trailing it... and uh oh. Those skateboarding kids don't have much time to get out of the way as the car comes speeding down the road. You've been brought here for a reason Hero — so you better act fast.

[ Cloud wasn't exactly new to this kind of attention. That's what happens when you save the world a time or two, but he certainly wasn't enjoying it. It didn't help that he stood out with his wild blond hair, the glowing eyes - though now he had his sunglasses on - and the multiple large swords sticking out of complex harness of straps and buckles.

Some how he managed to slip away - he thinks it was the guy with the burning skull that gave him his chance, and he was walking quickly away from the noise and the confusion when he saw this guy. It was obvious he was probably trying to sneak away too, but in his experience - sadly by another governmental power - sneaking people were dangerous.

Which meant he was just going to address them before they decide to try to kidnap him or sell him another story about a world needing saving, or JENOVA coming back, or Sephiroth attacking again ]

[The people who seem to belong on some sort of fantasy movie poster, the people who seem to have stepped out of comic books...none of them are creating any confidence in his sanity. This is what a dream would look like, isn't it? (But his dreams are almost always nightmares, and more real than this.)

But he still responds.]

Uh, coffee?
