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.
rattlethestars: (Yeahhh...)

Etherium? [said like 'duh' with a look that also said duh. how do you not know what that is?] You know... out there? [a hand wave to ...well, up. Space. Breathable space]
alittlemystery: (Questioning your priorities.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
You mean space?

Never heard that term for it before.
rattlethestars: (Huh?)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Man, what backwater planet were you raised on? Even on Montressor we've heard of it.
alittlemystery: (Excuse me!)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:40 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, I'm from Earth.

Space travel is limited to government agencies and stuff right now. People haven't even tried to get on Mars yet. There's a probe though.
rattlethestars: (Looking over there now...)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Have a unsure look. Earth? Mars? Where are those?]

Limited? Man, that sucks. So you've never traveled to other planets or anything? [Like HE can talk. He only recently got to.]
alittlemystery: (Why is this my life.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
You're from the future or some other reality, aren't you.

No, I haven't been to other planets. Except this one.
rattlethestars: (Huh... i'm watching you)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Future? [Yeah, because time travel is real, pfft] Not that I know of, but sure. Why the heck not.

Name's Jim, by the way...
alittlemystery: (You're the worst.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
I'm Dipper Pines.
rattlethestars: (Huh... i'm watching you)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, cool. Nice ta meet cha.

[he huffed again and ran a hand over his forehead, over the stone and giving another confused look.] What's with this anyhow?
alittlemystery: (. . .)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that happened to me too when I got here.

They give you super powers?
rattlethestars: (You know it)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
So ah... this is normal. [Weiiiird. He rubbed at it again, to see if it came off]

Powers? Serious?
alittlemystery: (Gosh though I still feel it.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
I have telekinesis now.
rattlethestars: (Smiles)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
...

Okay. That's kind of cool. [He wondered what he had, if he had anything at all. Maybe this guy was pulling his leg]
alittlemystery: (Time to watch Motorcity!)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
It's really cool.
rattlethestars: (You know it)

[personal profile] rattlethestars 2015-03-23 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[He frowns and looks at something on the ground, trying to see if he has some mind powers or something, but nothing happens. He makes a face]

So, ah, how'd ya figure that out?
alittlemystery: (Tell me more.)

[personal profile] alittlemystery 2015-03-23 12:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Kind of an accident, my sister took a little fall.
