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.
strengthinkindness: (Shy smile)

Ah. Blowing off some steam is good. I hope everything goes okay!

[She nodded.] Mm...My world is...pretty different from this...

Have you...been to other worlds before...?
no_refunds: (Who? Me? What?)

[personal profile] no_refunds 2015-03-23 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, depends who you ask. I'd say it's somethin worth knowing.

Where'd you come from before this whole ominous-hole business?

[She nodded.] He's...getting really good controlling his magic...
the_dancing_dork: (Wide Eyed)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
He can use magic now? Huh... that actually kind of fits.

[Donnie WAS the wizard in their LARP game some time ago, after all.]
rattlethestars: (Yeahhh...)

It's been about 4 years since i played him. pfft.

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
[He gives you a frown, rubbing the back of his neck and mumbling]

When you're on a planet that isn't your home you're considered alien to the place.
no_refunds: (The ol' Stan charm~)

[personal profile] no_refunds 2015-03-23 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Ha! Sheesh, magic mind powers aren't enough for you?

[The obsidian knuckles vanish in a sparkly puff of smoke, which he bats away with a cough.]

Who knows, maybe you'll get one eventually. What kind of weapon would you want, anyway?
strengthinkindness: (This is me)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Mm...it happens with anyone who's turned into a unicorn in that world...or if they had magic before going to that world...

the_dancing_dork: (What?)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
I see... so he's doing alright? Please tell me that he at least gets some sleep while working on his projects.
strengthinkindness: (I'll take that as a yes)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
...I...try to make sure he does...
the_dancing_dork: (What?)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
I am so sorry for any difficulty that he gives you. I know that dealing with him can be a pain int he shell sometimes, especially when he's working.
lazaward: (ᴛɪɢᴇʀ ᴘʀᴀᴡɴ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-23 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I'm... It's nice to meet you as well.

[Yep she's super excited about this. Good thing Bill is 100% a good and trustworthy guy and nothing bad will come from this.]

It can be kind of tiring, yeah. I'm not sure what people see in this planet in general, to be honest. And now I'm stuck here with all these humans and... Well. I'm just... glad I'm not as alone as I thought.
strengthinkindness: (I did say that)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
N-No, it's all right...He's done a lot to take care of me, so...it's the least I can do to make sure he's okay...
the_dancing_dork: (Heroic Pose)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, as long as someone is looking out for him, I won't worry then. But do you have any idea why he's been dragged into that world?
magistermentium: (▲ like my soul)

[personal profile] magistermentium 2015-03-23 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Careful!

[Approaching Sayaka from behind and smiling is a tall, thin young man with broad shoulders, perhaps in his late 20s. He has tan skin and brown hair, a goatee beard, and is dressed in a golden-yellow and black suit with a bow tie and a small, skinny top hat. His most striking feature, however, is probably the fact he only has one eye, and in the place of where the other should be, there's a triangle-shaped piece of pyrite instead.]

I wouldn't go touching that if I were you, unless you think you can handle whatever deadly monster's sealed inside!

[ gosh, she's feeling a little guilty for being bumped into now. elsa smiles and shakes her head. ]

Please, don't worry about it. It's fine, really.
lazaward: (sᴘᴏᴛᴛᴇᴅ ᴜɴɪᴄᴏʀɴғɪsʜ)

poor girl just can't catch a break :'D

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-23 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
...I don't really know anymore.

But if I could choose, it would be back home.
strengthinkindness: (But I thought...)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Mm...the same reason why any of us were brought there, I suppose...The...entity who brought us there wants to...study us...

Ah, well..

[ she glances briefly away, folding her fingers together against her abdomen. ]

Honestly, I'm still settling in. I haven't been here very long at all.

[ she was just trying to provide a little comfort but her cover has quickly been blown, alas. ]
the_dancing_dork: (Disturbed)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
...well, that's... kind of disturbing...
strengthinkindness: (Brushing away hair)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
M-Mm...i-if you're sure...

[That does seem to put her at ease though, as she gives a small smile, being careful of the dragonfly clip in her mane as she brushes hair away from her face.]

Mm...M-My name is...Fluttershy...
strengthinkindness: (Sometimes I'm miserable)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-23 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Mm...

She wants to...learn about different worlds...so she brings us there to...study us...
the_dancing_dork: (What?)

[personal profile] the_dancing_dork 2015-03-23 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
That... that is really disturbing. So none of you can just escape from there? I mean Donnie must be trying to find some way out of there by now or trying to make his own way out, knowing him.
magistermentium: (▲ it started with a big bang)

[personal profile] magistermentium 2015-03-23 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, if you're up for it I won't get in your way! The worst thing that can happen is you beat me so bad I have to take a few days to regenerate this construct of a body!

I doubt you'll really enjoy it though... mostly 'cause I will! Ahahahahaha!
hevenly: (Hm.)

[personal profile] hevenly 2015-03-23 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah, Angela sees you on the ground there. Makes no move to help you up, though. ]

It does not matter how you pictured things. This is the way things are.

[ She's stuck in some version of Midgard with a gem in her chest. ]
no_refunds: (I trust you as far as I can throw you)

[personal profile] no_refunds 2015-03-23 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Eugh, yep, you ruined it.

[So much for that. He gives this Bill a quick once-over glance.]

Must be weird to be using a body you didn't just swindle off of somebody else. For some reason I thought you'd be shorter.
