MEME: Veritaserum

VERITASERUM:

Oh no! Your character has been dosed with Veritaserum, and they're compelled to be completely honest in response to anything said to them.

Post a comment with your character's name in the header, and then other characters can come ask them questions, or maybe just engage in some awkwardly truthful chats.

Have fun!

You're more likely to get hurt on a hike than in duelling. Hexes are an easy fix, and Mufferaw can't brush them off like the bruises and scrapes from Outdoor Exploration. Anyway, you can totally put LARP on there. Uh, you would say... You have the ability to organize large groups in a cooperative fashion, while balancing a detailed set of expectations and statistics. BAM.

I hate waiting. People to see, things to do.

That's... very good, but feels a bit like being evasive. If I add more bullet points, it'll start looking like: "Detailed knowledge of the culture, history and fighting talents of several different races of elves. But not real elves. Strictly fictional elves."

Sometimes waiting is worth it. Like... you're listening to a song, and it needs time to build up to that big crescendo. It wouldn't have as much of an impact if it gave you everything right away.

	What's the difference between fictional elves and real elves anyway? Ohh, clever, trying to catch me in a metaphor. You got me, Dhaliwal. Potions are a lot harder than playing, though. I'm less like an accomplished musical genius and more like a ten year old on a recorder in that class. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, they both have pointed ears. That's really the only thing they have in common. I remember being excited when I was told elves were real, and it turned out house-elves were nothing like I'd read about. Why do you still take it? Lots of people only focus on the classes they like in senior year. I think maybe you want to try getting better at Potions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Haha! You mean like the elves in those movies that are all like these super hot immortal whatevers? Yeah, Prospero's a good guy, but I'd be disappointed too. No one's having preteen fantasies about him. You're going to have me all figured out within a couple hours. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yes, exactly, like in Lord of the Rings. The elves in our game are a lot more varied and flexible, though. It's kind of anything goes, so long as it fits with what's been established. If you want to play an elf who's a lot less "super hot" and serious, there's a race for that.

You don't seem that easy. But it is your last chance to take classes and learn academic things before your band becomes famous and starts touring all over the country. You should enjoy this year.
