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.

Aw, but you seem so generous.

I can do thirty percent. Deal. [She extends a hand to shake, even.]
ceasetoexist: (means business)

Hey, don't get me wrong. I am a nice guy but, you know, can't let people just walk all over me.

[Know what? Sure. He'll shake the weird horse-girl's hand.]
fishtails: (nothing can stop us now!)

[personal profile] fishtails 2015-05-27 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, naturally. I know the feeling.

Know something? You're not really like most the other horses I met. What'd you get banished for anyway?
fishtails: (tell me that you want me)

Trying to brainwash all of Equestria into appointing me and my partners rulers of the land.

[Y'know. As one does.]

But we weren't technically ponies to begin with, so.
ceasetoexist: (Yeah I'm Pretty cool)

[personal profile] ceasetoexist 2015-05-28 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
I hear that. Tried running a cult of a bunch of brainwashed weirdos a few years back. Went into business after that.

[And doing that while working for an alien invader. You know. The common things to do when you're twelve.]

Right, right there's a bunch of others there. So what were you then? Dragon? Griffon? Saw a few of those.

[Was a dragon while he was there, but it was lame.]
fishtails: (i'll make you want to stay)

[personal profile] fishtails 2015-05-28 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh totally]

A siren. I think my partners and I were the only three in the Equestria I come from, but... new world new rules, I guess.
ceasetoexist: (Meh I'll think about it)

[personal profile] ceasetoexist 2015-05-28 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty much.

[He shrugs a little.]

Your...cohorts, or whoever they might have been? Might still show up here. Could be here anyway, and I just haven't run into them.
fishtails: (tell me that you want me)

[personal profile] fishtails 2015-05-28 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
Well, guess I'll just have to wait.

[Though to be honest she's... not sure she wants the others here. Not after she was lucky enough to get in the hole during that last attack.]
ceasetoexist: (U Mad?)

[personal profile] ceasetoexist 2015-05-28 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Yup.

Pokey Minch, by the way. You'll hear a lot about me around town. I'm a pretty important guy.

[Not really. But why not.]

Aria Blaze. I'll keep that in mind if I have to call in a favor.
ceasetoexist: (Smiiiiirk)

[personal profile] ceasetoexist 2015-05-28 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Feel free to, but hey it'll cost you.
fishtails: (my time is now)

Favors always do.
