Did you want to test your characters? Do you want something that you can use for an RP sample without digging up an old thread? Well, here you have it. Pick one or multiple prompts below or, if you want, make a prompt of your own. Just be sure to tag around so that everyone gets plenty of exposure.
1: Explosions in space! Space Bandits attacked the space colony everyone was visiting! Dozens of fighters and mobile armors fly through space, locked in deadly combat. Are you among those battling to save lives? Or are you watching from the windows, praying everything will be safe?
2: Explosions underground! You were part of a trading party, exchanging supplies with an underground penal colony when alien animals burrowed through the walls and started assaulting convict and Confederation member alike! What are you going to do?
3: Explosions over the city! The Colosseum is shooting off fireworks as part of a concert or a sporting event! Are you watching in the crowd, a main attraction, or watching the bright colors from the city?
4: Explosions on an asteroid! You're either observing, guarding, or mining an asteroid! It's rather dull, save for the explosions that rock the ground under your feet. It looks like it'll continue to be just as slow, but... was that something moving in the shadows there?
5: Explosions on a space station! As you approached a research station, you receive a distress signal! Fire's broken out and their systems aren't up to spec! Can you do anything? Are you a part of a scouting crew or out for a joyride in your new yacht? And is this an accident, or something more sinister?
6: Explosions at the gym! Explosive competition! Swimming, weightlifting, running, boxing, someone has just challenged you! Whether they know it or not, you're going to do your best to show them up.
7: Explosions in the past! A star has died! The Fleet is flying through the nebula it left behind, with swirls of beauty as far as the eye can see. If you're the type, you can watch it all you like.
8: Explosions on the road! Most of the traffic on the Teuberg is computer controlled, but some young showoff took his off the grid and promptly caused a wreck! Traffic has been backed up for almost half an hour now, with no way out for you and the people in your vehicle. Are you close enough to see if anyone needs help? Or are you just stuck with people who are as late for their appointments as you are?
9: Explosions in the marketplace! Explosive bargains! You're in a trading hub, surrounded by stalls of all kinds selling every type of merchandise you can imagine! Luckily, you've got enough money to handle a few purchases here. Will you buy one of those daggers on display? An incense burner? Some alien fruit? Or maybe you're on the run from the corrupt guards? Or perhaps you're the one doing the chasing, did someone just steal your wallet?
10: Explosions in your mind! The explosive inspiration that drives this world! Make up your own prompt!

hello friend
It is one thing to be brought to some strange far off place, told that one is in the future and that their world is some far gone memory, so they will simply have to live with it. It is quite another to merely submit to the whims of these simpering fools and the rules of their strange world.
However as much as she would very much enjoy going on a blood soaked rampage through the ton, Maleficent did not gain the title Mistress of All Evil by being reckless nor foolhardy. She knows that things take time and that in her delicate position, so she does not fly off the handle when the suitably dark and chilly rock she had chosen to be her current residence came under siege by the same bumbling fools who were responsible for her presence her to begin with. She plots and plans and sets very little spells.
Broken machinery here, a cave in there. No direct contact because that sort of thing usually results in earnest and valiant knights pounding on one's door and she is not particularly in the mood for them.
This creature, however, she finds most intriguing. A quiet yet powerful beast, he may yet be of use to her. She speaks from where she has been observing him ]
What a diligent worker you are. Your masters must be quite proud.
hello! :>
a female organic attempting to engaging in conversation, which wouldn't necessary a bad or good thing. except she mentioned masters and refers to him in a way he hasn't been in (thanks, senator ratbat). soundwave's mechanical voice blares high above her. ]
I have no master here. My diligence is to myself.
no subject
Maleficent arches her brows in mock surprise. ]
Oh no?
[ She glances rather pointedly back down the tunnel where the humans are working (and about to discover that the rock they're hammering away at is turning harder and harder with every strike of their tools) then back to the metal creature. ]
Then would you call this a collaboration? Or are you perhaps an independent party.
no subject
It is an opportunity. The presence of the other organics are inconsequential.
[ a long pointed look at the other organics, futilely working. then back at the smaller one in front of him. gauging her position relative to the others. ]
no subject
[ She smiles serenely for the sound of breaking machinery and loud swearing in the background. Oh dear, did someone's drill suddenly disintegrate? How unfortunate for them, how ever could that have happened. ]
They are intrusive. And rather crude for my tastes.
