TEST DRIVE

Maybe you've been here for a while, or maybe you just got here. Either way, you're all in the same situation - you've been turned into a magical gemstone and stranded in a foreign world! And all you've been left with is the clothes on your back, stripped of all powers except one.

Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

How this works:

☆ This is a test drive for [community profile] cosmographia, which means you should get a little familiar with the setting and premise.

☆ Otherwise, this is just meant to help you feel out how you may play and serves mainly as a chill interest gathering and get together kind of post! No app necessary, and you don't need to play in this post to apply - or vice versa.

☆ Everybody is welcome! There are no character limitations; pg au oc canon pigeon whatever. Just toss up a topcomment and/or jump any threads that pique your interest.

☆ Rules-wise: Be cool to yourself and others, and keep in mind the other game rules too.

☆ If you do apply to the game and are accepted, and you want to keep the CR, you may so long as what you did isn't setting breaking and everyone involved agrees.


YOUR OPTIONS:

☆ You find yourself in the Heart of a ruined temple. There is a large glowing gem that thrums with some kind of rhythm, and jewels scattered all over the room, kept in strange bubbles. At the very least, touching the large gem will give you a standard info-dump, but some of you might be a little cautious about touching weird luminescent gems. Good thing that there are other people there too!

☆ Or perhaps you already know everything there is to know, and are there in the Heart of the Ruined Temple to greet new arrivals. Or perhaps you simply had business there already, like storing away a corrupted gem from a monster, when someone new seemingly dropped in from no where.

☆ It's Farmer's Market day in the plaza of Waverly Bay! Perhaps you're there perusing the goods and strike up conversation, or accidentally bump into someone and get to know them that way. It's a fairly standard day.

☆ There's an event! You don't really know what else to call them - missions, perhaps? But something in the temple was triggered, and the glowy Heart gem has something new to "tell" you: If you want a new power, you should try telling other people two truths and a lie. Those who you interact with must try and divine the lie from your statements.

You have no idea how something this simple will get you a power, but hey.

Hm. I don't really remember. But this seems... like something that would happen in a dream.

...I think.

More than just hunting! Ultimate hunter, fighter, light-douser...the list goes on and on.

Nice for you to meet me as well.

Hardly. I just wouldn't find it much of a challenge to fight someone with the build of a bony woman.

[Giffany smiles slightly.]

I... thank you.
pearl_chevalier: (I'm ready and serious for battle)

[personal profile] pearl_chevalier 2015-05-21 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sure you're just scared. I'm even willing to waste time on you to teach you a lesson.

[He's brighter than ever now. Take warning~]
timecapsules: (Confirm suspicions)

[personal profile] timecapsules 2015-05-21 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
[If he was at home it would have broken. :'''(

But you are quite right, that was not a good idea and it would not have been, even if it broke. Trunks has the decency to look appropriately chastised, once he notices Chiaki.]


Sorry. I was just... [He gives the (completely unharmed) wall a sidelong glance]

...Testing something. [The strength he worked so hard for was gone, just as he thought.

But hey, at least he heals up fast now. The wounds on his hand are beginning to close already.]

[personal profile] intiiiiimidating 2015-05-21 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
Then go ahead! You've made no attempt to throw up your dukes, lady.
npsleepy: (007)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Chiaki smiles brightly back at Giffany. She's glad she could help her feel better, even just a little.]

...I feel like... my dad probably would have liked you. He loved computers and AIs. And developing them too.
spontaneouscombustion: Feel free to use with credit! (Default)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-05-21 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
[She laughs.]

Yeah, it does, doesn't it?! Buuuuut it'd be kinda weird if we were ALL having the same dream, right?
pearl_chevalier: (AKOYA PUNCH)

[personal profile] pearl_chevalier 2015-05-21 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
You will regret fighting me, 'The Holy Angel, Akoya!'

[Akoya is already strong to canonically punch a man off his feet, and while no way stronger than Gaston, he's fast and has amazing technique. With surprisingly speed, the boy ran to Gaston and punched him up in the gut hard, before sidestepping and kneeing him.]

That's a lot of talents... People usually only pick up one. But... being versatile is a good thing.
urmyanthyding: (and this is where the tentacles live!)

[personal profile] urmyanthyding 2015-05-21 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
I would have liked to meet him, too. My father is... well, my dad in the game is an octopus, but. That's not exactly relevant anymore.

[Oh! She extends a hand to shake.]

My name is Giffany, by the way!
npsleepy: (003)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe if it was a shared dream...

[...]

But that's not the case here. I get it.
intiiiiimidating: (Default)

[personal profile] intiiiiimidating 2015-05-21 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Impressed? I pride myself on being the best at just about everything.
npsleepy: (005)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
[You tried, Trunks. You tried.]

Were you attempting to break that wall with a special move? Hm. If it didn't work, you're probably not supposed to use it.

Maybe... for balance reasons.

[Well, she's not entirely wrong. But still on completely the wrong track.]
cyan_maid: (Oh my!!!)

Arrival

[personal profile] cyan_maid 2015-05-21 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Jiminy crickets that was a shout! Jane makes a startled sound and turns, gaping somewhat at the young man who seems to have just...punched the wall.]

Goodness! Are you okay??
npsleepy: (001)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
[She would comment, but her sister is a rabbit. So that doesn't even sound all that weird.]

...Chiaki Nanami. It's nice to meet you.

[Oh, right, the western way. Sure, she'll shake her hand.]

Have you been here for a while?
npsleepy: (008)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
That's a pretty bold claim. Isn't everyone bad at some things, though?
urmyanthyding: (eyeSparkle addValue 1;)

[personal profile] urmyanthyding 2015-05-21 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
A couple of weeks or now. If you have questions, I can probably answer them! At least as far as people here know yet.
npsleepy: (005)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
Hm...

Is there an arcade?

[#priorities]
urmyanthyding: (and this is where the tentacles live!)

[personal profile] urmyanthyding 2015-05-21 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
There is one at the amusement park! I have not gone in, but I can take you there if you would like!

[Even if she finds it a bit uncomfortable, going there with a player would be less weird, right?]
npsleepy: (002)

[personal profile] npsleepy 2015-05-21 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I'd love that! Ah... I'm going to have to get new high scores for everything. That'll be fun.

[She's basically going to live in that arcade, isn't she? Yeah.]

It's been a while since things have been calm enough for me to play a game in peace.

[personal profile] intiiiiimidating 2015-05-21 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
The only thing I'm bad at, my dear, is being bad at things!

[ ...Right. ]
urmyanthyding: (and this is where the tentacles live!)

[personal profile] urmyanthyding 2015-05-21 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Then follow me~!

[And she begins to lead the way. But keeps the conversation going.]

Well, unless you decide to help with fighting the monsters here, this is a pretty peaceful place!
timecapsules: (Of all the good things)

[personal profile] timecapsules 2015-05-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, not really a special move, but-]

Well...yeah, I guess you could say that. [He clenches his fist in irritation at his new weakness] I know what they want me to do here, but I could be a lot more help if I wasn't like...this.

[But he digresses. He looks up and at least attempts to smile.]

Um, but I hope I didn't disturb you or anything. Sorry about the commotion.
