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.

Waverly Bay; and this, is the 'Gem Temple' where those who came through the holes here reside, [He replies, and once they're in his room--which of course resembles his dojo's property and house--he'll turn to face the other with briefly closed eyes.

He wants this one to have his wounds bandaged...so do that, room!

[Ask and ye shall receive, because now you have a tiny man with bandages around his wounds!]

...You don't say. I don't know what kind of magic this place is packing, but if my brother saw any of this, he might have a little bit of a fit.

[He always was a sucker for anything magic related.]

So...is there any reason I was suddenly dropped through a hole? Or is it just kind of a random thing.

AAauuh, well, this is all the work of the temple itself, admittedly--as soon as you leave this room, those bandages will vanish, so again, this is just until I find one of those with a healing ability! [Ahahaha...anyway.]

That said, since this has also robbed you of the chance to receive an explanation by touching the 'Heart', I, the man Gongenzaka will explain.

The gem here brings others from various worlds, changing them into 'gems', [He gestures to his hematite] for the purposes of facing off the creatures which reside here as well. As of yet, that is the most we know in terms of 'why', however...that and the fact that we cannot return home willingly either.

So...magic. Magical adventure to save the people from rampaging creatures of inexplicable doom. And now we're all gemstones. Gotcha.

[He...he summed that put pretty eloquently actually. Good thing magic is pretty prevalent in his world, he's taking this pretty well in stride.]

Yeesh, I know I wanted to travel after things wrapped up back home, but this is a little over the top, wouldn't you say?
otoko: (uwu)

[personal profile] otoko 2015-06-06 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Well enough indeed--Gon actually has to stare a moment before nodding and smiling.] Right!

In your defense, I, the man Gongenzaka, doubt any would have thought of dimensional travel to be a sudden change! I myself was even in the midst of such a journey when arriving here!
vagabondhero: (Please tell me more)

[personal profile] vagabondhero 2015-06-08 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Journey? You're a traveler too??

[Oh he's staring up at you now, he's got those stars in his eyes Gon.]

What kinds of stories do you have to tell?

AHHHH--

Ahahahaha-]

Unfortunately none...I, the man Gongenzaka, was in the middle of a teleport-like method of travelling after all..!
