[OOC] App Post
Character: Speed Racer
Series: Speed Racer (cartoon)
Character Age: 18
Canon:Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer, a talented young driver hoping to score in the big leagues, defeat huge crime syndicates and occasionally fight off ninjas with nothing but his trusty gloves and manly scarf to help him (and his car, the Mach Five, too). He also has his mechanic Sparky, his not-girlfriend Trixie, his family and the enigmatic Racer X who is obviously not Speed's older brother (obviously), to help him out. Oh, and Chim-Chim the monkey.
Speed Racer is a lot of things: brash, bold and not afraid to rise up to the occasion when the risks involve jumping on treacherous high cliffs or fighting statues with guns. He's ready to speak his mind when he feels that you're doing the wrong thing and he's more than willing to talk it out first (in very long drawn-out sentences and a constant tendency to repeat himself). Confident and yet somewhat shy about his track record, Speed's compassionate and kind. And also has the tendency to state the obvious a little too often (thanks to hilarious dubbing).
Sample App
I was chosen to come to Hell, Louisiana for a special kind of race that only a woman called the Director allows every month. It's so dangerous that everyone only calls it the Fast and the Furryous. But no matter what the challenge is, I've got to win this race, I've got to. So, here I am, all ready for the grand Circuit of Furry Underground Drive. Though I have no idea what a furry is, but I'll do my best to understand what this race is all about because I wouldn't be a good racer if I didn't try. And I'll never stop trying, not even if the furry is a terrifying obstacle in my way. Pops will understand when I win this race just like I should. Let's see if those furballs can stop the powerful Mach Five!
At least, that's what I thought but it turns out the mud stuck on the road was going to be my undoing when it stuck to the tires and it wouldn't let me move no matter what I did. So I got out of the car to try and find someone to help me get the Mach Five out of this muddy jam. I think it actually was some kind of jam. Talk about traffic puns. I came across some kind of wedding procession in the middle of the jungle! They even had music playing with some kind of band called the Rock Em Dead Zombies except they couldn't really be zombies, they just really looked like some! I guess they had really good costume designers to help them out like green guts over the outfits and their fingers came off when they shook hands with you, though I'm still not sure it's a special effect. They asked me to stay for the ceremony and in return, after it's done, they'll get my car out. Gee, that sounds swell to me and I could use a rest! But there's something fishy about this whole thing...
So I decided to see what was going on behind the curtains that seemed to look like skin, but it's probably another special effect because there's no way that can be real skin. I pulled them to discover an international zombie cult devoted to marrying away random strangers they find in the forest! I've got to stop their devious plot to this twisted version of holy matrimony, I've got to! So I disguised myself as one of the zombies to expose their sinister deeds once and for all! With this bride dress and veil, I'll sneak into the ceremony. They'll never suspect that I would disguise myself as a bride, but really I am Speed Racer, owner of the Mach Five! Oh! They're started the vows and the groom seems to have burst into song that has a strangely addictive tune. Is this how they've been brainwashing people? By "never giving them up and letting them down?" I can't believe they came up with such a dastardly plan! But how can I fight back? There has to be something I can do, maybe some kind of song that fights off his terrible brainwashing powers! I know just the thing!
"Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer, he's a demon on wheels~"
Voting went here! WTF you guys.
