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.

No, he is not. I enjoy barbecuing on my own time. I do not enjoy having to barbecue for individuals who command none of my attention or respect.
freckledninja: (Man this could end badly.)

You're bringing this barbecue way down.

I am about to slaughter a pig in full view of the barbecue. I am allowed to bring it to any height I please.
freckledninja: (Chucking time yet?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
Dude. This is gonna be my first time eating barbecue.

I would not recommend that, because you'll have started by eating the best barbecue. All subsequent barbecues will pale in comparison.
freckledninja: (Why'd you do that to Carrie!)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
No way you're THAT good.

Not only have my natural Swanson genes allowed me an unattainable level of barbecue mastery, I have perfected my skills even beyond that. So, yes, I am that good. Please refrain from making any more idiotic comments questioning my skills.
freckledninja: (YOU GOING DOWN)

You gotta put up or shut up when it comes to chow!

[personal profile] turfandturf 2015-10-15 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, no. I do not.
freckledninja: (A story~!)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:29 am (UTC)(link)
The Man says you do.

"The Man" has absolutely no say in my not-serving an overgrown reptile any sort of food.
freckledninja: (Are you and Casey boyfriends Raph?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Overgrown? But I'm the short one!
turfandturf: (pic#9633775)

[personal profile] turfandturf 2015-10-15 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
...You are telling me that there is a whole family of oversized reptiles.
freckledninja: (So we screwed up right?)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
I got three older brothers.

Are there any provisions or by-laws in regards to staging a hunt on you lot?

Not that I'd particularly care about the government trying to mandate when I can or cannot kill things.
freckledninja: (Looks kinda interesting.)

[personal profile] freckledninja 2015-10-15 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
You gotta work on those issues you got, dude.
