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.

no subject
no subject
[ARE YOU MAGIC? YOU ARE CLEARLY MAGIC! HOW DO YOU DO THAT? ONLY QUEEN ZELDA WITH HER MAGICAL POWERS OF SHAPESHIFTING CAN DO THAT??????
Link is very, very confused. Never seen that before!!!!]
no subject
"These are called fashion lenses, non? You simply place them on your eyes and they will appear to be a different color."
no subject
[He stares at the lenses and then back at Amelie. He hears her talking and he understands the words... but not what they mean.
. . .
A... mask for eyes?]
no subject
"Want to guess which one is the lie?"
no subject
Ancient people were the norm for him. Look at the Great Fairy.
Two fingers up for both his answer and his victory. Yes!]
no subject
"Magnifique! You figured it out!"
no subject
...
New problem. How does he do his turn? Isn't he supposed to truth and lie too?]
no subject
"Can you...not speak?"
no subject
[Awww... he looks so embarrassed.
um... Kind of? It's... complicated, really. Ugh, why couldn't she be a fairy? He has affinity with those.]
no subject
Hmm. Obviously, she will have to use her keen investigative mind to figure out a solution! (She doesn't have a keen investigative mind, she is just the silent partner of a detective agency.)
"We will simply have to communicate through body language! Like a game of charades!"
Nailed it.
no subject
[How can he lie through body language?]
. . .
[Also he doesn't know what charades is. But that sounds vaguely like charcoal so... is she asking him to draw it?
Link is already writing in the ground translations
Here is what he wrote by the way...
But because of the heart, she'll understand it! Yay!
My name is link. Nice to meet you. Sorry about not being able to talk. Hopefully writing helps. Okay, here are my two truths and a lie.
I usually have a fairy called Proxi speak on behalf of me.
My best friend is a sword named Ghirahim.
I am currently in the middle of a war where we’re somewhat winning.]
no subject
"Oh, you have a sword friend too? Mine is named Curtana!"
So, let's see...
"I'm going to go with the first one. I've never met a Fairy that can talk."
no subject
no subject
Yeah, she's just...going down the list.
no subject
Yay! They're done. So they... get powers now?]
no subject
...nothing happens.
"Maybe...we should report to the Heart that we finished?"
no subject
But he nods to her. Yeah! Go together and demand that power!]
no subject
Okay, roller skates deployed! Time to just rollll away to the Temple with new friend Link!
no subject
[ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE NOT MAGIC BECAUSE YOU SEEM MAGIC TO HIM
Well Link will make a run for the temple, determined to outrun the strange, shoe wheels. Let the friendly competition commence!]
no subject
And she likes to think she's magical, yes~
