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 forcosmographia, 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.
Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

Heehee they ARE a pretty gray! Hmmm so which of those other two is the lie?
[... It really says something about the life she leads that THOSE two are equally and legitimately believable to her.]
no subject
"I earned the rank of Grand Duchess through ritual combat!"
no subject
[... Yup. That sure was a thing.]
no subject
Pause.
"What is a cutie mark?"
no subject
Here! This'll help you get a better idea!
[The text in both simple and informative... and colorful. LOTS of different colored gel inks were used, and there are tons of illustrations.
Pinkie turns her body to the side to show off her own.]
And MY cutie mark means my special talent is throwing parties!
no subject
Yes, she does this kind of thing a lot.
"That sounds like an excellent talent, indeed!"
no subject
"Glad you think so!
"Hmmm let's see..." she muses, calling on details that have surprised other gems so far. "I've got a pet crocodile, I'm best friends with a Princess, and I grew up on a rock farm."
no subject
"I have no idea what a 'crocodile' is, so I will say...the third one is the lie?"
WOOPS (memory, why did you betray me?)
"Nope~! Gummy's actually an alligator!"
no subject
"Oh! I don't know what that is either!"
no subject
"Tada~!"
no subject
"Oh, it looks like a Sandile!"
no subject
no subject
"Here!"
no subject
no subject
"This is what they look like when they grow up!"
no subject
"So what IS this thing anyway? It looks REALLY nifty!"
no subject
no subject
no subject
"There's a...talking Pokemon here?"
no subject
"He's kinda shy and worried about keeping secrets, but he's always polite and he's REALLY nice once you get to know him!"
no subject
"It sounds like I have something to look forward to! I can't wait to meet him!"
no subject
Hahaha, Pinkie yes you can, the snake doesn't like humans that much. Not that you KNOW this, but still.
"Speaking of meetings, I'm Pinkie Pie! What's your name?"
no subject
"Grand Duchess Amelie Felice Amaryllis, Champion of Kalos, at your service!"
no subject
Pinkie, she doesn't mean a game champion! (Although technically...)
