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.

[You know what you should expect but never will

Someone flopping out of one of those people-sized holes in the wall and onto the floor with a loud thud.

Yeah have fun with that

[ ... oh my god she knows that's how everyone arrives but she was seriously not prepared to actually see it happening right in front of her WHAT DOES SHE DO

well of course the obvious recourse is to panic for a moment before hurrying over and making ineffectual gestures with her hands, like she wants to help him up but she doesn't just want to grab onto him ]


Ah... e--excuse me...! Are you okay...?

[Excuse Simon as he groans quietly into the cool floor. He could take falls but that didn't mean he WANTED to fall.

He didn't expect to suddenly find himself face down on the floor and oh breadballs he just swallowed a dust bunny. Excuse him as he coughs and tries to pick himself up.

Ah... yeah, I think so...

[As much as a guy with blue skin and a goblin nose could be.]

Th--that's good... um...

[ she's... not really sure what else to do now and after a moment she simply leans down a little and offers him a hand up. ]

D--do you need some help...?

[He smiles at the hand and takes it, even if he can pick himself up thank you very much.]

Thank you. I appreciate it.

[ carefully pulling him to his feet. even if he says he's fine, he landed right on his face... ]

Oh, u--um... no problem...!

You're a new arrival then, I guess... [ seeing as she just same him come DRR DRR-ing out of a hole and all... ]
