Test Drive


Test Drive




This is the first test drive for The Last Resort. You can use one of the handy prompts or make up your own.

Prompts



Prompt #1

There's a new drug being passed through the seedy end of the town which gives many bipedal species the temporary ability to shapeshift into someone else of their species. Needless to say it's very dangerous. Are you working on a cure? Currently trying it out to look hot at the bar? Trying to weed out the dealers?



Prompt #2

When a cavespider attacks, usually someone doesn't lose much in the way of memories. They might not even notice what's gone. But your character has been swarmed with them and only remembers half of anything. Try to figure out some things about yourself again by talking to your friends and hope that your memories will be recovered with the reminders. Try not to take advantage of someone and lie to someone with the problem, though. Or do it, you need all the advantages you can get.



Prompt #3

A notable and extremely wealthy alien ambassador has just arrived. He loves luxury but is extremely difficult to please. He is also said to be a collector of rare artefacts and some suspect that he may be here to receive stolen goods. Are you staff complaining about his behavior? A scientist keeping a close eye on the museum collections while the ambassador around? A thief planning a heist with a friend in order to sell the goods to the ambassador?



Prompt #4

Having a drink at Pugsy's bar, because someone has to try the exotic booze. Be careful, some of it's made with blood.

Yeah, I got that. Doesn't change the fact that it fucking sucks.

[Seriously. He picks up one of the larger pieces of luggage and almost falls over? AND it's heavy? He wishes he was back on valet duty.]

Better be getting a decent tip or something.
timesbureaucrat: (contrast)

From him? I wouldn't count on it. I've looked into his reputation and "ungracious skinflint" came up a time or two. As did other, more unflattering terms which I won't repeat in public.
grifshot: (let's get this overwith)

[personal profile] grifshot 2014-05-22 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Grif's face falls.]

Yeah, I can think of a few to.

I am going back to valet parking after this.
