TEST DRIVE - Part 3

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.

☆ This post will remain open until it begins to approach 5000 comments! Then a new test-drive post will be made.

☆ 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.

The gem temple in Waverly Bay. I suppose you're a new arrival.

[Small girls must like Makoto because here is a short, young-looking girl. However, her height wouldn't be the bizzare thing about her, that would be everything else. The girl looked like she had walked straight out of a JRPG, a staff by her hip, and clothes that suggested regality. The girl had silver hair too, curled unnaturally, and showcasing two, small, white fluffy wings which twitched as she walked.]

Would you like some assistance, sir?

XD he's a new muse so I hope I do well!

[She definitely looked like someone out of a JRPG, Makoto blinked down at her. She was awfully polite though and he gave her a smile and nodded]

Yes, I would. Thank you, miss.
pikana: (melia)

i believe in you!

Melia Antiqua.

[She smiles a little at him before gesturing to the staff]

Have you touched the Crystal Heart yet?

[She gestures the rock with the shoddily made 'Touch me' sign]

It'll save most of the explanation, and then I can provide you with assistance.

Ah. No, I have not. Thank you, Miss Antiqua. I'm Makoto Tachibana.

[He wasn't sure how a crystal could provide him information, but it didn't seem harmful. After a moment or two of hesitation, Makoto touched the gem and was suddenly given... a lot more than he thought he would.]

...this is a lot. [He was... a gem? How? Why?] Am I no longer human?

[Oh god, he wasn't human? Makoto looked rather freaked out.]

No, whatever you were before, you are now a gem. It is difficult to comprehend, but it is not too different to being a homs... a human. The only difference here is that you were chosen to gain powers and fight, like the rest of us.

[She sees his expression and she bites her bottom lip. Her dangerous-looking staff comes out and she waves it.]

Summon Aqua!

[And then, floating in front of Makoto, is a small orb of what appeared to be water. It emits a small, healing pulse, hopefully calming Makoto down]
