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.

The thought rests dormant in her mind, choosing instead to pick apart what he's told her. ]
Have they?
[ A bit of curiosity seeps out in the two words, but not enough to really push on the matter. She trusts him and if Matt says they've been willing to bend the rules, she'll find out the circumstances behind them soon enough. ]
Rules... now that's something I haven't paid much attention to in the past few years.

[He's convinced Punisher to hold back, on those grounds alone. No sense in provoking them or making a convenient target, and Frank could see the wisdom in that. Daredevil's running around unregistered, less publicly than Kate-Bishop-As-Hawkeye, and nothing seems to have happened yet.]
For all I know they throw them out entirely, as long as you do what they want you to do.

Produce enough favorable results and she can break as many rules as she wants.
Reminds her too much like home, except this time they are making the mistake of believing that she belongs to someone else, to something else, other than an organization of her own choosing. ]
Is that how you've spent your time? Playing as someone's pawn? [ She just has to ask. ]
