Test Drive MemeExactly what it says on the tin.
First brush up on some of the general rules outlined here first, then:

1) Labeling the subject with your character's name and canon is up to you, but would make recognition easier.
2) Do go ahead and tag out! The purpose of this mingle post is to get everyone cozy with the setting and the playerbase.
3) If you're up for it, make a reservation. Applications open on the 22nd!

Some prompts if you'd like a boost (the first chunk is lifted from the applications page, bless the mods):

A) A new curse has settled upon the city of Vatheon: Suddenly you character realizes they are unable to lie for the duration of a week.
B) What is this? Is that rain? How nice-- wait a minute, is it raining rubber duckies? Seriously?
C) Suddenly, by the force of Vatheon, an over zealous npc, or even your character's friends playing a joke, your character suddenly finds themselves wearing clothes they otherwise would never wear.
D) The city of Vatheon is under attack (again). Giant sea-creatures are wrecking the city (again). Time to prepare for battle.
E) A new plot development has happened and your character has decided to get some more information from one of the NPCs.

F) Whatever the heck your beautiful heart desires

[Sufferer has never had his name described as brutal before, nor has he ever quite had this reaction to it either. It's not often that anyone expresses any kind of appreciation for the name... most just call him Signless regardless. He perks up at the mention of the guitar.]

Oh, I play guitar too! Maybe we can play together sometime!

[Never mind that he's still a beginner and that his musical tastes run more towards stupid, useless hippie music.]

[skwisklok]

[NO NO NO THIS IS A BAD IDEA.]

Uhm, Ja, you knows what maybe sometime we can does that.

[He hasn't had anybody to play with since he got here, so might as well. If this place doesn't have metal, then he'll just have to make it metal. Although... despite this guy's cool horns, brutal teeth, and wicked cool name, something about him doesn't seem quite... right. Like he plays the grandpas guitars or something.]

[onlyasign]

[By which you mean BEST IDEA EVER.]

Great! That will be a lot of fun.

[Sufferer totally plays the grandpa guitars, don't even let him fool you.]

[skwisklok]

Maybe. I mean I am literals-ly the greatest guitarists what picked ups a guitar. Do you think you could keep up that with?

[onlyasign]

Oh, probably not. I'm still a bit of a beginner, although I'm learning fast. I'd really like to hear someone really good play, though!

[skwisklok]

[Oh, don't worry. Soon enough the whole bubble will hear him play. If he can, y'know, get all his equipment back, and find a way to set up one of those massive Dethklok stages.]

I could play for you, sure. I dont think I could be much of the teachers though. Honestly, I don't even remember what it was like to be a beginner. Have you done many scales yet?

[onlyasign]

[Sounds brutal.]

That's okay, I've been doing all right just teaching myself. I can play four scales so far.

Probably going to drop this once I actually bring him in, just so you know.

[skwisklok]

[I look forward to establishing this CR in game.]

Four scales like actual scale, or like one scale in four keys?

[If he can only play a major scale in C, G, A and D then that's... kind of depressing. If he can play something like major, dominant, minor, and harmonic scales in all their keys then that's not actually that bad. Not great, but not bad.]

makes sense! don't feel obligated to tag this back, we'll just move things to his intro post

[onlyasign]

[This is going to be the best CR.]

Scales have more than two keys?

[Sufferer knows major and minor, but not anything else!]

[skwisklok]

Here.
