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.

Are you sure you're going to be all right, sir?

Sorry, that's all I really know...

Fairy magic?

[Magic solves everything]

[He nods. However he crouches down and writes in the sand and dirt in the cave,]

I'm new here. I haven't seen many. Sorry.

[The magic woman falls out of her hole with a decided] Oof [and draws herself up to her feet. Is this where she was going? She doesn't remember anymore. Part of her doesn't even care. She'd seen that hole and she'd crawled through it, because why shouldn't she crawl through it? It was made for her. It even had a pointy bit on top for her hat.

Still, this cave was kind of boring. She's ready to teleport herself somewhere else, until she sees him.

You forgot your floaties.

She knows him. She doesn't want to know him. Or does she? When she looks at him, her chest aches like someone's hollowed her, making her want the delirium, the delicious no-thinking. The madness to go along with the sadness, to go along with her magic.

He has a name. Simon. That's his name. He belongs to her.

She throws herself at him.]

All the same, thank you for answering.

I do what I can. You should just get settled in, maybe see town.

[personal profile] akindperson 2015-06-04 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
The town?

[His expression doesn't change much but the curiosity is evident.]

Down from the temple is a town called Waverly Bay. It's a simple place, but has all the basics.

[personal profile] akindperson 2015-06-04 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Does it have a place that sells equipment?

[Like weapons, ammunition, and sundries of sorts?]
pearl_chevalier: (neutral)

[personal profile] pearl_chevalier 2015-06-04 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
A general shopping centre, and a few stores for clothes... but if you mean like... stuff for combat, no...
gonnagetalittleweird: (eh i mean whatever right?)

[personal profile] gonnagetalittleweird 2015-06-04 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Nice to meetcha too, Bill! But you can just call me Star.

[Small comforts]

I dunno, I had it when I showed up? But maybe. I guess there aren't many safer places to store a magic wand than inside your own face, huh?
gonnagetalittleweird: (i'm gonna wreck that)

[personal profile] gonnagetalittleweird 2015-06-04 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
I guess so.

[Star steps in, too!]

Now we need... privacy.

[The door to the outside closes and suddenly they're in Star's room! It's very big, and has a lot of stars going up to little half-balconies and things, but there aren't even any windows! Very private!]

[Oh dammit magic does solve everything, doesn't it? At least when you come from a place that has water-triggered shape-shifting... and presumably when you're dressed up as Link too.]

Ughhhhhhh. Fine, it's fairy magic.
justhavecourage: (Smile~)

[personal profile] justhavecourage 2015-06-04 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles and gives a thumbs up! ... Victory?]

[She gives him a pained look. Her head hurts now.]
justhavecourage: (embarrassed)

[... he writes an apology in the sand. He didn't mean to make her confused.]

[personal profile] uncutetomboy 2015-06-04 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Wow, this is a fancy room. Akane is impressed in spite of herself.]

Okay. I guess... I guess I should take my jumper off.

[So she starts to pull it over her head. Wow, this is awkward. Even if the Western girl with the wand is a girl, she's still a stranger.]
uncutetomboy: (Default)

[personal profile] uncutetomboy 2015-06-04 08:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, she guesses she understands that. And he still hasn't tried anything funny, at least.]

It's all right. I can deal with it.
justhavecourage: (Default)

[personal profile] justhavecourage 2015-06-04 08:26 am (UTC)(link)
[He grins at her and nods.

So... Do they get powers now?]
uncutetomboy: (Default)

[personal profile] uncutetomboy 2015-06-04 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
[She shrugs. Maybe? This is all new to her.]
justhavecourage: (GEM POWER???)

[personal profile] justhavecourage 2015-06-04 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Link sighs and stares at his gem...

And then from nowhere, he takes out a bomb]
cometkin: (hmm | that i'm a lightspeed distraction)

[Greg blinks. Well, the guy was blue with a nose like an ice pick. Maybe he shouldn't be surprised that the kid the blue guy was looking for wasn't very human-like either.]

Oh. Uh. I haven't seen her yet.
uncutetomboy: (Default)

[personal profile] uncutetomboy 2015-06-04 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Akane takes a step back, because it's a BOMB. It's VERY MUCH A BOMB. And sure Master Happosai throws tiny bombs around all the time and she's gotten used to that, but still.]

Watch where you throw that.
justhavecourage: (Default)

[personal profile] justhavecourage 2015-06-04 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Link nods and he just tries to stare at it, trying to make his gem work. Maybe he can set it on fire or freeze it or something?

... Zip. Nada. Zelch...]
