TEST DRIVE MEME: At the Mall
THE MALL
It's where all the cool kids hang out and you can be a cool kid too.
How it Works
Due to the nature of Save the Earth, it's a more complicated process to play in than most other games. With this in mind, it can't hurt to experiment a little.
Post your character and in the comment share a few details regarding their reincarnation. Repeat if you have multiple ideas you want to try out, as many as you like. It's also suggested that you set a scene and there's a few prompts below to help there, but think outside the box if you like. Then tag around to other threads and help your fellow prospective players to test out their characters and the variations on them. Don't be afraid to presume a little CR to make a scene flow more freely, or to assume an Echo or two.
If you have an app, complete or in progress, you might want to link it.
Prompts
Chilling
There's no particular goal in mind to being here, but it's a nice place to sit around.
Browsing
The mall is made for shopping and that's just what you'll do.
Working
The place doesn't run on wishes, but takes hard work.
The Movies
There are other things to do in the mall besides shop. Are you there with a friend or are you that one guy who won't shut up?
Crime Pays
$59.99 for Call of Duty? Time for the five finger discount. Or think bigger.
Alien Invasion
The Martians* are attacking! They want our brains/world/women/hot dogs. Take these freaks out, or cower in terror.
Stake
Mysterious goings on have made it seem suspicious goings on are occurring after hours at the mall. Someone is investigating, but are you with a partner or are you the mysterious thing yourself?
Meeting with Witnesses
Tensions are high and you don't trust the person you're meeting not to try something dangerous unless it's in public.
Taking Shelter
One of the dangerous foes to mankind has caused a gigantic blizzard. Its been days since it began and... now what?
*Martians are not actual Save the Earth villains.

[Chilling]
[BB is sitting around. But not just sitting. He's sitting in a very weird, uncomfortable pose, that makes him look rather like a frog. But he's pretty comfortable in it, nevertheless. And he's thinking, incredibly deeply, on his new ability, with a thumb pulling on his lip.
Suddenly, he looks up at the person with him.]
I've come to a conclusion. This echo...! It's!
Completely useless.
[and he'll just flop down into a normal position on the bench - well, rather than normal, just like that he's sprawled out like he's dead. One arm dramatically covers his eyes - an arm covered in burn scars. Apparently he hasn't had the best luck getting things back - currently the ability to mimic someone he's still never heard of.]

Try knowing how to wield a sword when there aren't any around.
no subject
Huhn. Well, I suppose it'd depend on the sword. A sporting goods store may still have fencing equipment.
no subject
No, that would be too convenient. Think the flashy medieval sword fights on TV, and you're close.
no subject
[He doesn't really. It's still better than his.]
no subject
Please don't mention beheading. [He lets out a breath.] What about you?
no subject
[And believe it or not, that was genuine. Seems didn't think that hyperbole through well enough.
BB's hand goes back up near his mouth as he thinks.]
About me... some kind of muscle memory. A series of gestures, highly practiced, although for what, I can't be sure. A character in a play, maybe.
no subject
[Huh. That is useless.]
Were you an actor before?
no subject
no subject
[He thinks, sometimes, of the memories he has. They're fragmented, out of order, and in most of them he is a lord, or a king, and it's harder than he ever thought. Being an actor in a past life, he's certain, is better than being a king.]
