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.

[Is... Is that hole in the wall dog-shaped?

Why, yes. Yes it is. Any character at the temple's Heart at the time of this hole's appearance will see an aging brown dog emerge from it, wearing what appears to be a doggy-sized spacesuit covered in russian lettering.

Cosmo blinks, his eyes adjusting to the light of the temple after having become accustomed to the darkness of the tunnel. He lets out a quiet, confused whine as he sees and smells his new surroundings for the first time. This definitely isn't anywhere on Knowhere.

His whine transforms into a growl as he realizes what must have just happened: He was taken, lured to this place for some reason. And judging by how weak his telepathic abilities suddenly feel, Cosmo seriously doubts that the it's a good reason.

His eyes begin to glow, and his lips curl into a snarl, revealing a luminescent green gem that's replaced one of his upper canines, unbeknownst to him. With all the ferocity and mental strengthhe can muster, Cosmo the Spacedog sends out a telepathing message to anyone and everyone within range of his weakened mental abilities:
]

<This is Chief of Security Cosmo speaking. What is meaning of this? Where is Cosmo?>

[Cosmo's years of experience communicating telepathically are a godsend right now. His underlying feelings of fear and worry are barely perceptible at all through his mental message.]

<Cosmo demands answers.>

[Well someone has been walking around, evidently as lost as Cosmo. In fact, it seems they've come even later than the dog, brushing dirt off their pristine white uniform. Seems Japanese, if anyone particularly cared.

His eyes narrow and he looks around.]


That's not Lord Zundar. Who are you? Where are you?
