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.

He senses Link after a moment, but, again, doesn't seem very scared. In fact, he grins and reaches out to one of the bubbled gems, gently bringing it closer. Hey, he doesn't know what the bubble is for, but he'd rather it not pop. It's pretty, too!]
Hey, hey! Signore, look at this one! Have you ever seen this sort of thing before? It's really cool!!
no subject
Link seemed surprised that the bubbles move and he watches the strange man move it. He looks a bit stunned and shakes his head. No floating bubbles... fairies, yes, but he's never seen a bubble with a rock in it]
no subject
Me neither! I bet they're magical, huh? How else could they float?
[He pauses to consider this for a moment before he blinks, eyes opening properly and actually taking in his surroundings.]
Ve...um...but, where is this place, anyway?
no subject
[Link crosses his arms and ponders this for a bit. He has no idea either.]
no subject
Y-You don't know, either? But, but I just got here! And you're the first person I've seen!
no subject
[. . . Well he's new too. He shakes his head again to show he doesn't know jack-squat, sorry.]
no subject
Veneziano starts looking around wildly, worry ever mounting in his expression.]
B-But...ve, I just w-went through that h-hole and...where is it? Where's that hole? I, I have to go back, or Germany's gonna be so mad at me!!
no subject
He gestures to Veneziano and points then to the crystal heart. Either ask that or punch it or something.]
no subject
He does notice the gesture, though.]
Huh? The big rock...?
D-Does the big rock know how to get home?!
no subject
Um... Link gives a so-so kind of gesture with his hands.
Kind of?]
no subject
Excuse Veneziano while he goes up to the rock and puts his right hand on it.
A shiver seems to run through him (even his hair curl) as the information enters his head, and when he pulls his hand away, he looks...a bit upset.
Also, his sleeve has pulled back to reveal the gem on his wrist. He touches it gingerly, tracing the cross formed into the rock.]
Ve...

[Nevermind that, when he finally gets home, he's going to be yelled at by half of the entire world, especially his friends, for running off like he did. Monsters are just as scary as wars!]
no subject
He can offer you weapons and a little comfort. That's all.]
no subject
V-Ve, but monsters are scary, and I'm not very strong...
[He starts sniffling. Are those tears? How can he be crying so quickly?]
no subject
He looks around for help and then at the young man. No don't cry don't cry stop that he feels bad...
... awkward comfort headpats go!]
