Voice Test Post

Just what it says on the box! If you're interested in the game but not sure which character you want to play, or if you're testing out a new one, or if you just want to thread with someone, this is the place to do it. If you want to play your characters as already having Dream Eaters, that's just fine too - that's part of the fun of this game, after all!

[It's the wings that catch Four's attention first. He's seen an awful lot of races over his travels through time and space but not very many that actually had wings. And certainly not ones like hers.

For once, his Pricklemane is even managing to stay behind him for a change, and so it is that the first sight Aradia will be treated to is a man with a right mess of curls and just about the longest scarf anyone's ever seen.]

I'm terribly sorry if I'm interrupting, but can you actually fly with those?

[Aradia looks up, a little surprised, but then grins at him.] As a matter of fact, yes!

[To demonstrate, she hops off the railing and flutters gracefully down to the strange looking gentleman, a trail of red sparkles following behind her. By the time she lands, though, she's looking up - dang, dude, you're tall.]

I'm Aradia. Who are you?

Ah! How very extraordinary.

[It doesn't look like it should be possible and it is. It has to be, or she wouldn't be flying at all. Of course, it might not be the wings that let her fly - he's noticed the trail of sparkles she leaves behind - but one way or another she is flying.

Or was, or is capable of it, but it all boils down to about the same thing.]

Do you know, I don't think I've ever seen a species capable of flying like that?

[To be fair, a lot of Aradia's abilities don't make physical sense. She can't help but notice he didn't really answer her question, but whatever, he seems nice.]

Is that so? It's not really inherent to my species, there's only a few of us with actual wings. Most of the ones who can fly just do it with psionics.

[He does that sometimes. But he'll get back around to it, or not, depending on what else comes up in the meantime.]

But some of them do, hmm? A different subspecies, perhaps? Psychic ability I can understand - I've seen that before - but why would anyone need wings as well, in that case?

[She kinda shrugs.] Beats me! I'm not a biologist.

Oh, you shouldn't need to be one. You know your species, don't you? You know what might be expected from others like you, and that's something I can't say.

Yeah, I guess. [But she's kind of losing interest in this line of questioning, and adds teasingly:] Do I get to ask some questions, too, when you're done? Because I have a few!
