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.

That's a whole lot of information to take in at once, and Dennis has a real tough time keeping the surprise out of his expression. It's fine, though. He can work with this, probably. No need to panic just yet.]
Gon-chan? And Yuuya? [And Masumi, but that's less important.] That's... fantastic!
[See? He's excited! Everything's fine!]
Did they really make you a deck, though? Can I see it?
no subject
[Aaaaand another flash of her gem, her body turns to white light before stretching and shaping, fading away to reveal a young, still VERY pink-haired lady about a few years older than him, clad in a blue-green winter outfit.]
It's a LOT easier to handle these with hands, you know? [And indeed she holds out her deck in long, pink fingers.]
Here ya go!
no subject
Almost immediately he can tell something's off.]
These...
[Fireater. Stiltshooter. Mirror Conductor.]
These are Performage cards.
[Somebody is stealing his gimmick.]
no subject
Stop staring, she's too old for you!And not stealing: given.]Cool, so you know about them too?! Heehee, yup! They told me that these guys would be GREAT for me, and they were right! They're all so cute and fun and REALLY great to play with, aren't they?
no subject
Gross.No, it's okay, it's fine. He can totally use this, try to get in her good graces for now. He needs allies, now more than ever. Even if she is jacking his style.]Well, as it happens, I actually run a Performage deck myself! I could give you a few pointers, if you don't mind.
[Read: "Hey let's duel."]
no subject
no subject
Oh, he's going to have a great time kicking your ass.]You've got the attitude for it, at least! How about a quick duel, to see if you're really up to snuff?
no subject
[With a snap of her fingers, her dress changes into a robin's egg version of a stage magician costume that would make Zatanna proud, complete with cute little top hat.]
You wanna announce it or do you want me to?
no subject
It wouldn't be a proper duel if we didn't do it together. [That, at least, is true. It's a call-and-response thing.] Ahem.
DUELISTS LOCKED IN BATTLE!
[You should know the next part, right? Right.]
no subject
KICKING THE EARTH AND DANCING IN THE AIR ALONGSIDE THEIR MONSTERS!
no subject
BEHOLD, THIS IS THE NEWEST AND GREATEST EVOLUTION OF DUELING!
[There's a deep, monotone intonation of "Action Field On. Cross-Over!" from Dennis's Duel Disk.]
ACTION...!
no subject
Her face lights up at the field takes effect, surrounding them with hundreds of criss-crossing circuits of light.]
DUEL!!!
no subject
[He snaps his fingers, and Action Cards scatter every which way in a shower of sparkling light. The crowd still hangs around, but they've backed up towards the edge of the field. Nobody's quite sure what's going on, but they know it's not something they want to be caught in the middle of.
Dennis leaps backwards onto a conveniently placed floating platform, leveling his Duel Disk.]
I'll let you have the first move. Let's see what you've got!
no subject
Why thank you, you gentlecol-- er gentleMAN?
[She recovers with a cute wink before pulling five cards for her hand.]
OOH, this is a great hand~!
no subject
Lord, but the things this place is making him think about. With a twirl, he plucks his own hand from the disk and jabs a finger at Pinkie.]
Then don't hold back! Share your dueling with the world!
[He's going to steal this show from her even if it kills him.]
no subject
[You're welcome to try.]
Our opening act today is the monster with AMAZING depth perception for a guy with one eye! Give it up for Performage Damajuggler!
And since I've got a Spellcaster on the field now, I can ALSO Special Summon Nerfarious Archfiend Eater of Nefariousness straight from my hand!
[What?! A non-Performage Monster?! BLASPHEMY!]
I'll place just ONE more card face down, and now it's YOUR turn~!
