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.

Well, you might've been here a little or a LOT longer than I have and come back here because you weren't feeling too good about your gem! I just came here today myself! I haven't gotten a chance to explore what's outside of here yet!
snappingturtle: (I'm not agreeing to that.)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
I just got here too, and the only reason I wanna explore is so I can find a way back home.
spontaneouscombustion: (Puppy eyes)

[Oh, wow. Now that change in mood Pinkie notices.]

Aw. I'm sorry. I'd probably be the same way if my friend Fluttershy wasn't here with me and I got used to things. You must really like being home, don't you?
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.
spontaneouscombustion: (Puppy eyes)

[She nods, approaching softly.]

Yeah, I can tell. ... Would hugs be okay?
snappingturtle: (Is that even possible?)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
[lifts both hands in a warding gesture]

I don't do hugs.
spontaneouscombustion: (Puppy eyes)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Okay...

[Aw, lookit the face. She doesn't like it when you're unhappy, Raph.]

Well, I can't get you home cuz I don't know myself, and I can't throw you a party or hug you to cheer you up. Soooo, what CAN I do to make you feel better?
snappingturtle: (TOO COOL FOR SULKING)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
You can help me look for something that'll get us home.
spontaneouscombustion: Feel free to use with credit! (Hi!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
Ooh, that I can do! I'm great at helping my friends find stuff! Not as great as planning parties, but pretty darn close! Ooh, aaaaand maybe we should find a place for all of us to stay until we DO find it!
snappingturtle: (Doesn't feel right . . .)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 02:33 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I heard there's a town around here, so maybe there's somewhere to hide out there.
spontaneouscombustion: (Huh?)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah-- wait, "hide?" Why hide?
snappingturtle: (Huh!)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Because of humans.
spontaneouscombustion: (Huh?)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 03:01 am (UTC)(link)
... What are humans?

[She... met one earlier, but kinda didn't catch the correct species name.]
snappingturtle: (But why is that a bad thing?)

[personal profile] snappingturtle 2015-03-23 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Pink, hairless except for their heads, walk on two feet like me.
spontaneouscombustion: (I can see it now!)

[personal profile] spontaneouscombustion 2015-03-23 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
OHHHHH, is THAT was you call them? I met one earlier, but she said they call themselves super special awesomes where she's from! We don't even have them back home! She was really nice!
