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.

[It's her turn to be silent for a moment.]

Who you are...is a lot more than what you are. What others see is just a small piece of the real you.

Whether you change your outward appearance or not...it shouldn't matter to the person you are.
al2o3cr: (I had a dream - a dream about you)

[She nods.]

I'll bring out Crescent Rose if we run into trouble. Doesn't take long with this.

[She holds up her gem, which in case u didn't see is where Crescent Rose is currently stored. Saving space, ho!]

[Honey is wandering around the farmer's market. There's a sunstone visible on her left shoulder, and she's currently extremely excited about everything. Also asking tons of potentially confusing questions to both the stall owners and the people surrounding her.

Is it organic? If not, what pesticides were used in growing this? Did you know that if you add this to that you can make a sustainable natural dye? Have you ever had an avocado shake? Don't you think that creating new flavor profiles is incredibly exciting?]

[okay, but when have chocolate chip cookies hurt? HMMMM???

anna watches darcy very carefully, then jumps slightly at the discovery, hand flying to her mouth. perhaps it was because of a sea witch? or a curse? or maybe an accident... the possibilities were endless, but none of them made her smile.]
I'm so sorry! I... I hadn't realised. I just thought you were sick!

[she feels awful for not picking up on that proper, but she offers a gentle smile, hoping to fix the situation.] Well, if it's okay with you, we can share my voice for now! I think I've got enough of one for the both of us.

[ all right then, off they go. elsa has to take a deep breath to prepare herself, but soon enough she's moving forward, navigating through the temple and toward where the exit seems to be. ]
icytouch: (o n e)

[personal profile] icytouch 2015-03-24 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
.. oh. [ interesting. ] And the town? What is it like?
icytouch: (Default)

[personal profile] icytouch 2015-03-24 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ well it's a good thing we've got you around then, anna, to have the good attitude. ]

A team.. right. Of course.

[ it's a little scary, but also a lot exciting!! ]

What do you think it's like, out there?
kindaruledatit: (Much busy very work)

[She looks up. Well, at least one familiar face was stuck here too. That was a small comfort.]

Eeyup. I'm not gonna lie, Mister pines. I have no idea what's going on.

[Not like she really did before, but at least then she had friends around to help figure it out.]
strengthinkindness: (Sometimes I'm pitiful)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-03-24 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Fluttershy follows close by, looking around at the temple surroundings as they headed toward the exit to get a better idea of the temple.

When they found the exit, she hesitated a moment, nervous about heading outside as she was. Swallowing the lump in her throat, she stepped out.]
no_refunds: (*old man pout*)

[personal profile] no_refunds 2015-03-24 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, join the club. Seems like everybody's just tryin' to figure out what to make of this.

[He sits down on another nearby piece of rubble.]

I haven't found out much, but if you have any burning questions, y'know..

[personal profile] justcantwaittobeking 2015-03-24 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
It's easier when I can just shove the whole thing in my mouth, but... Sure!

[He grins widely and puts his hands on his hips.]

I'm Luffy! Who're you?
isprettyevil: (...you've stretched)

[personal profile] isprettyevil 2015-03-24 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[There weren't even any readily available guns or anything! What kinda' place was this?

Still, a gut feeling told Pandy that even if the pair could get a hold of some ordinance, starting shit in this town wouldn't be the smartest idea.
]

I didn't think it was possible, but that thing on your head makes you look even more like an asshole. Is mine that stupid, too?

[She stares at the bottle for a moment longer, then back at Berry and she realizes that, yep, this girl's waiting for her to drink it.

...Well, it... probably can't hurt. She'll take a few sips, why not.

...

H...uh.]


...Interesting.
alittlemystery: (That's just stupid!)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-24 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Wendy?

[when did you get here?! scurrying over to her side, concerned! As one might be to their cool teenaged friend who suddenly arrived in gem war world]

When did you get here??
lazaward: (ʟᴇᴀᴛʜᴇʀʙᴀᴄᴋ ᴛᴜʀᴛʟᴇ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
What? No! I'm definitely not a ghost! I mean... I don't look like a ghost.

...Do I?
lazaward: (sᴛᴏɴᴇғɪsʜ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[THINGS SURE ARE LOOKING UP FOR HER]

Oh, well... Sure! It's not like I was doing much here anyway.

[personal profile] justcantwaittobeking 2015-03-24 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Ehhhh, sort of...

Oh, but hey, hey, what are you then?! You're neat!
lazaward: (ᴀᴍᴇʀɪᴄᴀɴ ᴏʏsᴛᴇʀ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh... Thanks, I guess.

[She's still weirded out that there are even specific places dedicated to serving food. Whaaaaat.]

...People must really like this stuff if they have buildings dedicated to it.
lazaward: (ʙʟᴜᴇ ᴍᴀʀʟɪɴ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Um. Thanks?

I'm a Gem.

[...Oh, wait.]

I mean... not the way most people here are. I was always a Gem, even before I got here.

[personal profile] justcantwaittobeking 2015-03-24 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, someone didn't pay much attention to the infodump on his way in and only half understands what's going on...

Despite the red diamond embedded in his chest directly in the center of an X-shaped scar, Luffy doesn't appear to quite "get" that he fells within that group yet.
]

Oh, I never met a gem before I came here! My crew would love you!

Hey, do you poop..?!
lazaward: (ᴛᴏᴘᴍɪɴɴᴏᴡ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I s-

[Wait what did he just ask?]

...What?

[personal profile] justcantwaittobeking 2015-03-24 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think ghosts poop, but skeletons do, so I dunno what a gem does!
lazaward: (ᴀᴍᴇʀɪᴄᴀɴ ᴏʏsᴛᴇʀ)

[personal profile] lazaward 2015-03-24 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
...Uh.

[how does she respond to this]

Well, I don't really... eat.
lifeisfun: (hello)

[personal profile] lifeisfun 2015-03-24 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Sadly, she doesn't have the ingredients for a meat dish like that.

Pausing to copy Luffy's grin and pose, she introduces herself - Master Chef Berry!
lifeisfun: (yay)

[personal profile] lifeisfun 2015-03-24 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Yaaay! Happy day!

Berry is so happy you like the juice!
