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
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.
Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

I don't see what was so distracting here.

Her soul as a Chef was stirred by all the delicious ingredients!

Haven't you every gotten so wrapped up in something that you tuned out everything else?
no subject
Not produce.

Someone doesn't have the soul of a Chef!

How much do you think would get done if there was nobody around to prepare delicious food, huh? In the skilled hands of a Master Chef, even carrot soup is a feast! And let's not even get started on the juicy, succulent taste of perfectly roasted dinosaur meat! FOOD IS LIFE.

There's a slight pause then, as something finally occurs to Berry.
She hasn't actually...said anything yet. Normally it takes longer than this for people to figure out what she means from her body language, so how did you pick it up immediately?
She taps her chin in thought, incidentally displaying the Crazy Lace Agate that's fused to her fingernail. Maybe it's a weird Gem thing?
no subject
You're from somewhere else too, right?
no subject
She is also really, really good at Mining, Woodcutting, and...Paladining? Is that a word?

Around here, they use the term 'Job' instead of 'Life', don't they? Which is weird, because a job is just a kind of task, and putting it on the same level as a Life is kind of messed up.
no subject
A job is just a job. If your job is your life you kinda need a hobby. Like knitting sweaters or collecting state quarters.
no subject
And besides, she does have a hobby. She is the greatest lumberjack ever.
...Lumberjill? Lumberjane?

Anyway, as an apology for bumping into you, have this bottle of apple juice!
She made it herself.
