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.
strengthinkindness: (Lovely)

[She giggled softly. He did kind of remind her of Pinkie...which of course wasn't a bad thing.]

Yes...I'd like that very much...

[And Fluttershy's gentle tone was kind of reminding him of Sadie, which was definitely a good thing!]

So...how did you and Connie meet?

[Because this was a story he wanted to hear all about, friend stories were the best stories, especially the ones that had multiple friends in them!]
strengthinkindness: (Maybe we'd better...)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Oh...well, we were both just exploring this temple after we had arrived here...We started talking, and she told me a little more about Gems...

That's...actually when she told me about you...
believesineveryone: (I dunno...)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-27 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
[He couldn't help but get a little blushy knowing that Connie had been talking about him to people, but he laughed happily all the same.]

I'm glad she has more friends now and you seem like a really great friend. Nothing...bad's happened here, right? No giant monsters? No...space invasions?

[Please let there have not been any space invasions.]
strengthinkindness: (Shrug 02)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
[She blushed a little. His other question has her hesitating just a bit though.]

Um...n-nothing too bad...

There...might have been an incident with monsters, but um...She's all right...
believesineveryone: (A nice evening)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-27 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Phew...it was enough for him that she was okay. She had a gem now and she was super smart and had great friends!]

That's good, I'm glad you didn't get hurt either Fluttershy.

[Because all friends are equal.]
strengthinkindness: (W-well...)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
[She smiled shyly.]

W-Well...the truth is, I didn't really...run into any...

[So it was easy for her to okay.]
believesineveryone: (Laughing)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-27 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
That's even better!

[Because the safest place to be around monsters was nowhere near them, right?]

I don't really like fighting myself either, my weapon is even a shield!
strengthinkindness: (Somtimes I'm perfect)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Oh really...?

I don't really like fighting much either. But you at least to have something to protect yourself...so far my powers don't really seem to help all that much...
believesineveryone: (Default)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-27 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Everyone's powers can help out, definitely! You just have to think up ways to make it work. What kind of powers do you have?

[He still didn't know what he could do with making watermelons come to life, but hey, maybe one day he'd think of something.]
strengthinkindness: (And very caring)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Well...I have healing powers, which I know I can use to help others after a fight...but it can't really protect me during one...

I can fly...and I can talk to animals...
believesineveryone: (-gasp-)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-27 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I have healing powers too! Those are really important and definitely help out if things aren't going good. Talking to animals and flying are awesome too! I wish Lion were here, then you could talk to him!
strengthinkindness: (Excited)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-27 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
Oh you do? Maybe you can help me with mine...? I can't seem to control them very well...they just kind of happen on their own.

[A soft gasp.] You have a lion?
believesineveryone: (Um...)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-28 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Well...I'm still having trouble with my powers too, but I'll definitely help as much as I can!

[He understood a little bit at least? It wasn't like he could negative help at the very least.]

Yup! He'll probably wander in here whenever he wants to, he...has his own pace, you know?
strengthinkindness: (So glad)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-28 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, really...? Maybe we can figure them out together...

Mm, I understand...each animal is different, after all...It's important to let them be who they are.
believesineveryone: (Laughing)

[personal profile] believesineveryone 2015-04-28 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
That's a great idea! And Lion is just Lion, he still helps me out when it's important and he even lets me keep my bike in his mane sometimes!
strengthinkindness: (Oh goodness)

[personal profile] strengthinkindness 2015-04-28 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
Oh really? I've never heard of a lion being able to store things like that before.

[Sure Pinkie can, but...that's Pinkie.]

How does he do it?
