What it says on the tin
TEST DRIVE MEME
You want to join the game with a (new) character? Maybe you’re simply curious about the premise? Or maybe you just need a sample. Well that’s the meme for you to try and test your character as if they were already in the tower! The meme is open to anyone!
• Reply to this entry with a character you consider apping! Put your character’s name and fandom- Your usual meme thing.
• Comment around with your pups. You can also post and tag with characters already in-game of course!
• Most importantly, have fun!!

Have a number of prompts to get you started:
[Floor 29]: This floor has seemed pretty peaceful so far, the maze isn't all that hard and the garden that lies beyond it is rather lovely. Still it seems best to head back now that the sun is about to set and nighttime is approaching fast. ...Is that just the leaves rustling in the wind behind you, or is it something more?
[Floor 56]: Oh this looks definitely like an useful floor - the room stretches into a hospital ward, dusty and old, a surgical suite surrounded by a maze of empty beds. The closer you look, the more you'll find that the first impression is quite deceiving - no medical supplies of any sort, unstable lights and what was that noise just now?! Clearly you are the only one on this floor. Or are you?
[Floor 25]: After all you have seen so far, this just might be the first truly innocent floor you see. But is it truly as trustworthy as it seems...? Many other people seem to think so at least! Come and see what they are up to?
[Elevators]: It's quite a long ride between the Dormitories and the Cafeteria - it probably doesn't help that the minutes and seconds seem to stretch out more and more towards eternity, what a hassle. Are well, maybe there is someone stuck with you and up to provide conversation... or entertainment~
[Anywhere]: Do you still have track of just where you are after spending your day exploring the Tower of Animus? If not, you might want to ask someone... or just start climbing the stairs regardless of where you are! Nighttime is approaching fast...
[Event]: Just earlier this day you have been called for (and/or brought in to) an unscheduled collar check-up, in which the color of your collar was changed. It takes a few hours, but soon you feel the effects of it, feel lightheaded and dizzy, feel all your power slip out of your control. Or maybe you heavy to the point of breaking down on the spot, while just none of your powers seem to work. Either way... hopefully you are at a safe place or in friendly company... That is, if either of these things exist in this tower.

[More seriously, he continues,] I would like a bit more explanation on exactly where 'here' is, though, if you have the time for it.
no subject
[The amusement quickly fades from her expression, and she nods. Anise may joke around a lot, but she knows how to be serious when the situation calls for it. This is a situation that does.]
From what we've been able to figure out so far, this is a tower on a world that isn't Auldrant. Auldrant's been - destroyed... [She looks down for a moment to gather her thoughts before she continues.] ...or at least, that's what they say. They lie about a lot of other things, but... that didn't really feel like a lie. They said this is a rescue mission and that does feel like a lie, though, because they do a lot of really bad things to us. It's dangerous.
...but, you're really good at handling danger, right?
no subject
[He turns away, paces a few steps, walks back, and repeats the process a couple of times while he tries to process this information. If the part where Auldrant is destroyed is truth, then these people are...what? Scavenging the corpses of dead worlds in order to find victims for their experiments?
The irony is palpable.
He stops, and sighs.]
Do we have any method of communicating with anything...outside the tower? [Any way of gathering information that isn't being fed to them by people who clearly don't have their best interests at heart?]
no subject
[Anise couldn't think of many people who were more dangerous than Jade. It made her glad that he didn't see her as one of his enemies; she's not one to be easily frightened, but even she would shiver in fear knowing Jade the Necromancer had it out for her.
At his question, she shakes her head.]
No. They've got communicator screens in the hallways where our rooms are and in the library on the third floor, but as far as I can tell we're only able to talk to other people who are here in the Tower with us. If there are other people out there somewhere... we don't have any way to talk to them.
