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.

Yeah, it really was! STILL is, even, knowing he's been helping me make ponies happy before I even knew it! And he's an AMAZING party planning partner!

[Wow, did not expect her to gush this much about him. ... In this version of her, anyway.]

If it makes you feel any better, the same goes for all of us.

[This blue lady here is just gonna approach you, Jim, since she overheard. Her own gem isn't immediately visible since it's on her back and all.]
ryuusei_subaru: (You have GOT to be kidding me)

[personal profile] ryuusei_subaru 2015-03-23 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
I guess I've heard weirder reasons to be hungry...

[It's not...unreasonable, he thinks.]

snappingturtle: (No I'M the best)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Well . . . I'll find a way outta here! And then everyone can go home.
freckledninja: (Can I have ten of those?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-03-23 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oh!

Well then uh. Lead the way!
no_refunds: (*old man pout*)

You know what I meant. Hey, speaking of exciting-

[Hey Bill I hope you like a KNUCKLE SANDWICH. Stan throws a punch at the demon's non-gem eye.]
snappingturtle: (Who's sulking? NOT ME)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
[nods and huffs softly, a little sullen]

I got a lot to do there. It's where I'm supposed to be.
rattlethestars: (Pffft sigh)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
OOokay. [he said at a drawl, clearly displeased with this. He let out a huff, his hair puffing up at his forehead]

Do we at least know what planet we're on? Like, where in the etherium are we?
snappingturtle: (You realize you're spewing horse shit)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Your story's sounding less believable now, kid.
microbrobotics: (light of my life)

[personal profile] microbrobotics 2015-03-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Dude, still! Having abilities like that in the first place? I've never seen anything like it where I come from.
spontaneouscombustion: (Puppy eyes)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods, approaching softly.]

Yeah, I can tell. ... Would hugs be okay?
microbrobotics: (count the ways you're wrong)

[personal profile] microbrobotics 2015-03-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I guess? The gems are definitely new though.
rattlethestars: (Are you serious?)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[He's not even sure it's a gem on his forehead or what not, but it's really confusing because i shouldn't BE there.]

Yeah. It does make me feel better. I hate being the only one out of the loop.
freckledninja: (Oh wow is his heart on the OUTSIDE?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-03-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[swipes at him]

Raph!!
alittlemystery: (Excuse me!)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
It's a reason you hopefully only have to use once.
alittlemystery: (. . .)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
I'm okay with that in this one case.
alittlemystery: (Hi there.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
You probably have some now too.
alittlemystery: (My sister what even.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
The whatium?
tadeadshi: (29)

[personal profile] tadeadshi 2015-03-23 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno. Always pictured something with more clouds. Or nothing.

[personal profile] lookoutforthetriangleguy 2015-03-23 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Hahahaha! Good one, toots!

[Intentional pun or not, his laugh is definitely a genuinely amused one.]

Thought so. I'm something of an out-of-towner myself, so I know another one when I see one!

[personal profile] tadeadshi 2015-03-23 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey HEY someone familiar and not dead and he's just casually walking up behind Hiro following his line of sight.]

No, it's really really weird.

[ Cute, indeed! The boy rather reminds the good Captain of one of his nephews, a boy who is introverted but quite polite, and with his heart in the right place too. Protecting one's friends...

That's the most important thing, isn't it? ]


Would you care for a clue? [ The clue manifests itself, then, in the loft of a single dark brow. Yes, Ukitake's eyebrows are black in stark contrast to the long fall of his hair, so perhaps that is the lie...? ]
rattlethestars: (Yeahhh...)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Etherium? [said like 'duh' with a look that also said duh. how do you not know what that is?] You know... out there? [a hand wave to ...well, up. Space. Breathable space]
freckledninja: (Sounds alright.)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-03-23 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
You guys besties now?
