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!!
• ~~Then feel free to go and reserve and app your character when those open.~~

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.

[Brunwulf turned around when he heard the small voice behind him. He stared at the girl for a few moments before frowning deeply.]

You are here also it seems. Do you know why anyone would seek to place us here? [He wanted answers, even though she could give him none. This tower wreaked of death. He could smell it and knew enough, as he was also part werewolf. Yet, he was not going to tell her that.]

What is your name? I am Brunwulf Bear-Claw from the province of Skyrim.

I'm Seras. Seras Victoria and I don't know why anyone would want to bring us here. I don't even know what time it is or where this tower really is. [She's not exactly human herself. She can tell that something bad has happened here and its put her on edge along with everything that was going on in her world before she woke up here.]

I've never heard of Skyrim before. I'm from England. [Its amazing how her mood can change so quickly. She seemed rather down as she told him she didn't know why they were here, but that changed to a child-like confusion as she heard where he was from.]

[Brunwulf felt his brows knit together in confusion at the girl's response. He did not care where she was from, as he had never heard of it. He just wanted to get out of this infernal tower.]

How long have you been stuck within these walls, Seras? They seem to want to keep us here, whomever captured us. Cowards. [He growled deeply and kicked some of the stone work nearby.] They have made a mistake in trying to keep a Nord warrior trapped inside a tower. Damn elves. I am sure this has something to do with the Thalmor.

Elves? I didn't know Elves existed. I guess if vampires, ghouls and boys with cat ears exist then other kinds of creatures can to. [She's talking more to herself at this point. She's never thought about Elves existing, but she's never run into them. She's only gone up against other Vampires.

She's also not doing anything to hide the fangs that she has. Why bother? Anyone who goes up against her usually gets turned to dust or already knows just what she is.]

I don't know how long I've been here. Several hours at least and I still haven't found a way out.

Elves do exist throughout my world. [Unfortunately.] We have several different types of elf within Tamriel. There are the Wood elves of Valenwood, the Altmer of the Summerset Isle, then there are the Dunmer of Morrowind. Some of the Dunmer or Dark Elves, live within Windhelm, which is a Nord city. They came to us when the Red Mountain erupted, causing thousands of Dunmer to flee Morrowind. The Altmer, or High Elves are the ones that cause the most trouble. They have a faction called the Aldmeri Dominion. Those within this Dominion are called the Thalmor, evil beasts they are.

They believe they are higher above anything and everyone else, lest themselves. They hate all Nords and are trying to ban Talos worship within Skyrim. Talos is our most worshipped God and I am fighting the Thalmor with my own life. We do not need them within Skyrim.

[He took a breath.]

I have only just arrived and have found no way out as of yet.
