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.

Oh, well in that case...

Feel free to go ahead, stranger!

Her name is Berry, and she'd be happy to help you out with this!

Thank you.

[ He tilts his head though, considering. ] It would be a little too easy to just list it all off though, wouldn't it?

Berry tilts her head to side as well, tapping at her chin in puzzlement.

Wouldn't easy be good? She's already finished the mission, after all.

You have?

[ ... wait a minute. You can practically see the comprehension dawning on Mika's face. ]

Nod nod nod.

It happened just now, even!

... that's pretty sly of you. And here I hadn't even gotten started.

The lie was that you had heard about the mission, wasn't it?

Berry grins. She's sneaky!

Sneaky like a fox.

[ You know, usually this is where Mika would just shut things down and move on. Usually. But he has an event he still needs to fulfil, and his gem gives his the subconscious nudge to see this through. Not all humans have to be bad... this one is so cheerful, it's hard to imagine anything terrible from her. ]

You don't say. As it so happens, I'm almost done myself. Ah, and I haven't give you my name - it's Felid.

Felid...like a kitty! How neat!

Berry brushes back her bangs, tucking a few locks behind her pointed ears as she considers Felid thoughtfully. She's ready!

[ His face twitches somewhat at the compliment, but otherwise he waits patiently! Let's hear the guesses. ]

[personal profile] lifeisfun 2015-03-22 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, he's already done his?

...hm. Hold on, hold on...Berry draws back her lips to expose her teeth, the Crazy Lace Agate on her fingernail making a dull thunk sound as she taps it against her incisors.

...the only statement you made that she hasn't - or can't - independently verify is...your name. Which is a shame, because Felid is a very cute name.

Really? It seems like a awful one to me.

My real name is Mikaela.

That's a nice name, too!

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mikaela.
