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 Flordia 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.

[Reed do you ever allow your brain to not think sometimes. He knows this is why you're the smartest man ever but geeeez. He walks up and gives the stretchy man a pat on the shoulder.]

I have heard some specialist say that it is healthy to allow the brain to relax for short periods.

That can't be right. What about atrophy? It's a muscle, like any other... ( and he's off, again. sorry t'challa. but eventually he'll turn and smile and realize that, oh yes, this is one of his best friends. )

Hello T'challa. I wasn't expecting to see you here.

[No. No no no. We are NOT doing this Reed. It was a joke! We are not having this discussion over a joke!]

That makes two of us. I wasn't expecting to be pulled here, but as far as dimensional travel goes, I am sure the both of us have been sent to worse locations.

It's a planet with a livable environment and a sufficiently advanced civilization. I don't necessarily believe in luck, but it could certainly be worse. ( he hasn't met any nefarious versions of himself, yet, which is his new standard. )

The welcoming committee was also a change. ( and perhaps not an entirely innocent one? who could tell. )

They are certainly friendly to new arrivals in this dimension.

[And he looks around at the people asking for autographs or getting excited to see anyone who happens to arrive in a costume.]

Even when I was an Avenger, I did not always get this sort of treatment.

( the ff has better press than most teams in their universe, but even reed is confused by this. )

Especially considering that we haven't done anything, yet.

It would be more understandable if this place was in desperate need, but it does not appear so. I fear there may be something else at work here.

[Or it may be the both of them just being paranoid. They're good at that.]
