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.

[ Well-- the connect definitely would have improved her mood, but his immediate enthusiasm kind of put a damper on that. Just who the heck was this guy to be so excited about a slap, anyway? ]

Oh, yeah? [ she answered, aloof. ] Is that so?

Sure could!

[There's a beat. He glances down at his cane and lifts it up and rubs at it as if he just noticed a smudge or something. After a second or so of that, he looks back at Rita as if realizing she was still there.]

Not gonna.

[ She'll wait for that beat, before she looks away in favor of staring at the gem again. Yeah, no. This guy's getting on her nerves. (It's really, really hard not to give him another good smack, but she'll do anything not to make him laugh in glee like that again.) ]

Great. [ She puffs out a sigh in hope of expelling some of the frustration ] Then scram.

No worries!

[Boo hiss! Another buzzkill, just putting a damper on all of Bill's fun. Oh, well, business it is then.]

Hey, I just don't want to spoil the fun is all! You seem like the type who really gets into her work. [He sets his cane on the ground, leaning back against it.] Plus, you know the old saying "there's no such thing as a free lunch" so if you want a hint you're gonna have to make it worth my while.
slapslapblastia: oh glory✶ (✶oh glory)

[ If being a buzzkill is what'll get him off her hands... ]

Worth your while how, exactly? [ She's not looking at him, but it appears she is listening, even as she reaches to touch the protective bubble encasing it delicately. Hmm. ] You're just starting to sound like a complete creep.
