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 forcosmographia, 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.

If you don't wanna fight though you don't have to. It's not everyone's thing.
And monsters are kinda weird to be dealing with for some of you guys.
no subject
[Subaru, you're eleven years old. And you look shy and weeby and nerdy, okay. Still, there's an inner strength to those words that has to be respected, somehow.
The next words that Subaru mutters to himself, however, are a bit odder.]
If they're anything like viruses...I think it'll be okay, probably...
no subject
What kind of viruses? Are they a kind of monster where you're from?
no subject
[He scratches his head sheepishly.]
In my world, all of the technology is connected together in a wireless network of electromagnetic waves. Stray waves form into viruses, and they look like monsters that attack technology. They only appeared in the Wave World-that's the network-recently because of...things that happened.
[Things being like an alien invasion by a planet full of electromagnetic beings. But it's kind of hard to explain that without explaining that he's sort of the intergalactic hero that stopped them, especially since without War-Rock he can't exactly prove that...nor does he want to.]
So it's only recently that we've had the technology that really helps us stop them. Battle Cards work sometimes, and now Wizards have been developed-they work with us and help run our technology and fight those viruses off alongside us.
no subject
Does that stuff affect your daily life a lot?
no subject
[And then Subaru seems to deflate a bit after saying that.]
He didn't come with me, though...somehow, he wasn't in the Hunter when I passed through. It's weird...
no subject
no subject
[Right away? He brightens back up at that, thankfully.]
But she's here now? Does that mean I could run into my partner also?
no subject
no subject
[Subaru laughs a little sheepishly and rubs the back of his head.]
Thanks a bunch, by the way...
no subject
no subject
[That's something he's had to learn many times over.]
no subject
Anyway, this place isn't that bad. Some jerks here and there but that's life.
no subject
[Something normal is a nice breather after this...well. Something.]
no subject
The town's alright.
no subject
no subject
[leads him outside to the sleepy little town that they're stuck in]
Does this look like your home or....?
no subject
Well, mine looks a little more um...modern. But it's actually pretty similar. Kodama Town isn't very big, so...
[Yep. It's kinda like home. He doesn't really mind this at all.]
no subject
no subject
[He nods.]
I think I cam get used to it.
no subject
Cool. So uh.
When I first got here some guy bought me fries. You want any fries?
no subject
Sure, if that's alright...
no subject
Panic over being stuck in a weird new world makes me hungry anyway. Dunno about you.
no subject
[It's not...unreasonable, he thinks.]
