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.

[ Remilia is insulted by the idea of groveling before anyone. ]

You insolent little...! The Scarlet Devil fears no one!

...that's an unusual reaction. Anri blinks several times as she processes this - undead, looked her full in the eyes, issued an order...shouldn't she be falling over herself to obey and not...murderously angry...

Um.

"Strategic retreat."

And with that, Anri turns around and starts running deeper into the temple.

[ Thanks to her gem, she won't stay angry for long... And then she's just going to be confused. ]

...

[ Well, confusion it is, then! ]

Anri's first priority will always be her own well-being, and she hasn't eaten in a while. Fifteen minutes after running away, she sneaks back into the Heart room looking for an exit.

Hopefully the vampire - the [Vampire Lord] - has calmed down by now, if not left entirely.

[ Remilia's still there, but had fortunately calmed down by now. ]

What exactly was that all about?

"I'm a [Former Evil God]; undead that are exposed to my [Mystic Eyes] tend to become my fanatical worshipers."

Well, that's straight-forward.

"There were clearly weak willed fools."

Remilia is completely convinced that her own stubborn will would make her exempt.

"Well, [Imperial Death] became a Lich King for religious reasons, so maybe that had something to do with it? He's a very dignified type, I wouldn't call him weak-willed."

A slight pause.

"Of course, we haven't spoken in a while, since he decided to serve with the me that's still an [Evil God], so."
