TEST DRIVE MEME

Unsure of who to send to Hinoto-Ri? Want to have written samples for your application or just do a little bit of testing out? This is the meme for you!

▶ Pick a prompt or start your own!
▶ Tag others!
▶ Join the game!
▶ If you need Persona help, or have a question about the game itself, there's a section below with fellow players and mods who will be happy to aid you!

▼ A city like no other...

Ahh Hinoto-Ri. City of lights, questionable Wards, the 13th Hour and Personas. A city that requires your aid in saving it, but sometimes in the strangest of ways...

▼ SCENARIO 1: Teenbeat Magazine!

Today, you're browsing through the recently received news when you see the following message pop up on the screen:

Readers at home, we asked you and the results are in!!! Our semi-finalists for hottest, sexiest, cutest Visitors in - now with both ~Male~ and ~Female~ editions!!!!!

Naturally, upon scrolling down, you see a picture of yourself in nothing but your swimwear. And almost immediately, it seems there are people on the street beginning to glance in your direction...

▼ SCENARIO 2: Dolphins in the sky with diamonds

You've heard the rumors, but never seen them before.



Hinoto-Ri's fabled flying dolphins: are they friend or foe? Do you want to try riding one? Or will you just let the majestic creatures continue past undaunted? Whatever happens, be prepared for your life to be changed forever!!!

▼ SCENARIO 3: What do all these buttons do?!

They told you about Q's . Truth be told, you didn't expect him to ask you for this, but he needs a guinea pig no seriously guinea pig to test out his newest vehicle. It's the 13th Hour, and the night sky above is stained red. He looks at you before you start driving.

"Now do be careful. I've installed all sorts of weapons inside the old girl. If you could bring it back in one piece?"

No problem, you think, before you realize you have no idea what all these buttons do. Now what?

...Wait.

...Do you even have a driving license......?

▼ SCENARIO 4: A Night in Hinoto-Ri

The 13th hour. Although technically the 25th hour of each day, it is the time when the world seems to change - the entire city turns a shade of dark red, demons emerge from the shadows, buildings shift and dangers lurk in every corner.

But it's your job to make this safer. Just be careful of what you run into --



Oh OK a giant sentient foot awesome.

▼ SCENARIO 5: Arrival

It's getting colder with each passing day. The nights are getting longer, which the demons seem to like, but it makes the city that more dangerous. Of course you wouldn't exactly know that because you just got here.

Maybe if you can find someone who knows exactly what is happening, you'll be able to confirm that it wasn't just a dream. Remember, the man you talked with (butterfly-mask guy?) said you were here as a Special Guest. If this is the city you're supposed to save, maybe he should have given you a map or something. Time to start exploring on your own...

▼ Post Info & Persona Help

Welcome to the test post! Don't worry too much about Persona stats or your levels here, just come out and make up a scenario about what they are doing.

If you are having an issue thinking of or creating your Persona, this section below can help you out! Just follow this link.

She very well could have been there for a while, seeing as the Haro did nothing to tell him had company until she complimented it. "Cute! Haro cute!" As for Neil? He turned his head quickly to compensate, taking in her appearance and the fact she wasn't standing.

That was different. But he forced a bit of a smile, steps slowing to properly face her. He chuckled good-naturedly, smile settling more comfortably. "So maybe I should have turned right instead of left."

Happiness? That wasn't his purpose for himself. But she didn't need to know that. "Don't mind Haro, he's a bit full of himself sometimes."

[phantom_envoy]

"It's so nice to see some civilization around here." Phantom Girl beams and reaches forward to give Haro a pat. "Whenever I talk about future stuff, everyone starts staring like I have two heads. It gets old pretty fast."

The girl unfolds her legs now and touches down gently on the ground.

"So why were you actually asking that question just now?"

[lockontarget]

The little basketball-like robot's earflaps moved again at the pat. The human shifted his hold on the Haro, balancing it in both hands. "I think he likes you."

Oh good, standing on two feet was appreciated. Neil stood at ease, head tilted just a little to his right. "Two heads? Funny, I only see one."

He straightened and offered a slight shrug of a shoulder. "Doesn't everyone talk to their robots?"

[phantom_envoy]

"I probably would if I had a robot. ...But I don't. ...And also my robot would be programmed to only say things like, 'Phantom Girl have I mentioned your hair is extra luscious today' and 'Phantom Girl you've been voted Universe's Best Superhero again for the 10th year in a row' which would be nice, but not very helpful."

Phantom Girl also seems to be under the 'nice, but not very helpful' category.

[lockontarget]

That was fine. It was better than running into someone the direct opposite. He grinned a bit, letting her ramble and trail off on her own. "I'm getting the feeling you're called Phantom Girl. Nice to meet you, I'm Lockon."

Don't mind the harmless not pirate guy with a robot and eye patch over his right eye.

[phantom_envoy]

"Your feeling would be right. ...And I have a feeling I'm suddenly not the only one with a code-name in this town." She examines him with a critical eye. "...If you're going to have a superhero name, you should dress the part more."
