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.

Whoa!

[That surprises him, enough to almost fall face-forward. That disaster avoided, Justice resumes his straight-face.]

I'm glad you think that way. It's in my very nature to be the expert on all things heroic. [He puts some extra stress on the last syllable. He seems to have a bit of an European accent.]

Oh, I can tell! You've got the whole thing down to a T!

[The skinny man saunters over to Justice Knight's side, that toothy grin of his never fading for an instant, and reaches out to knock on that shiny armor.]

Really dig the look too! Boy, I'll bet everyone'll feel a lot better knowing there's a hero like you around!

[That puts a self-satisfied smile on his face. Almost enough to make him forget the reason why he came here...

Justice decides not to mention it. He's already proclaimed himself an expert, it would be awkward to go back on that and admit he couldn't control what was supposed to be a basic function of these gemstones.]


They would be right to. I am the hero that anyone good of heart can depend on - Justice Knight! [He's practiced for several of these introductions. In this one he whips out both of the two swords kept on his back and crosses his arms, angling his swords across his chest]

[Yep. Thaaat's it, big guy. Just keep eating it up, Bill can dish out the flattery all day. He even hooks his cane over his forearm and claps cordially at that goofy pose.]

Bill Cipher-feeling safer already! [He sets his cane back down in front of himself, resting both hands on it.] So, big time expert like you, I bet you've already got all this gem business figured out, huh?
exceptionallybright: (understood)

Sorry for being late!

A pleasure to meet you, Bill Cipher. And, indeed, anything to do with hero-ing comes almost naturally.

[Trying to move the subject...]

What brings you to this area? It's secluded and likely dangerous to move around in.
