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.

[Oh hello! Steven wasn't sure who this new person was, but she seemed friendly enough if she was offering him a hand up, so he took it and got up on his feet, using his free hand to wipe the dust off his pants.]

Thanks ma'am, but I'm fine! Falling out of space and back to earth was a harder fall.

[Said with complete nonchalance.]

Um...do you know where this is? I've never seen anywhere like this in Beach City before...

Out of... [Okay, Chie instantly has a feeling that this boy's got some stories to tell. Some of her stories are pretty crazy too, but...]

Beach City? Never heard of that place before... Uh, this's the Gem temple in Waverly Bay. It's like... another world, or something. We all fell through holes and ended up here, just like you just did.

Huh...

[That was definitely weird. He'd never heard of Waverly Bay before...and the fact that it was just some other world where others had come in the same way he had...well, it wasn't the weirdest thing he'd ever heard so he was quick to shrug it off.]

Well, it's okay. If this is a Gem Temple that means there should be a teleporter around here I can use to get home! I'm practically the teleport master!

Teleporter? I dunno if--hey, wait a minute... [She was going to say she didn't know if there was one here, or what it would look like if it existed, but something more important occurs to her.]

Are you saying you know about the gems already? Like, you didn't come from a world where nobody's ever heard of them?
