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
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.
Clearly, you’ll just have to make the best of it.

...actually now that I think about it no one is really "In charge" we all just kinda do our own thing. Mob rules yo.
no subject
That being said, it said something about rooms, right?
no subject
[Leading him over to one of the many doors in the area]
OK so our gems give us powers right? Like my gem...
[She twists around showing him the diamond shaped red and black stone in the small of her back]
Let's me do stuff like that shapeshifting trick! I dunno what yours does yet you gotta figure it out. BUT! They also let us access our own personal rooms. And inside these rooms you can create whatever you want...more or less. If it gets too complicated and chaotic the room breaks. That's a mess. But give it a shot! Just...try to open the door.
no subject
[Looking over to the wall, he reached out as a door with a bat appeared on it. Hesitantly, he opened the door to reveal... a room in a mansion somewhere and a elderly man looking up at him.]
Ah master.. [Batman slammed the door shut. NOPE NOPE NOPE BRICK IT.]
I'll look at it later.
no subject
Who was that? Your Dad? No wait he said Master...
no subject
Then again, Lex and Joker didn't when they torched his cave.]
no subject
...eh...well what business is it of mine. We already knew you had to be pretty kinky the way you dress.
Anyway the room is a nice benefit. But remember nothing you make in the room can leave the room. And like...food you make in there doesn't work either. You gotta get a job and buy things.
no subject
[He chose to outright ignore the kinky part of her statement.]
no subject
I think I've got a one up on you this time though Batblock! I bet you can't fit one of these in your belt.
[She reaches behind her back around the general area of her gem, it glows and she produces an entire catapult. Large enough to launch two full sized people.]
You like it? I had someone cobble it together for me up by the junkyard.
no subject
[Pulling things out of nowhere? That was what portals were for.]
no subject
Or people. It's really good at flingin' people too.
Ever since I figured out I could stash stuff in my gem I put all sorts of things in here.
[She starts pulling them out like a magic trick. Rubber duckies, paper clips, watering cans, home made bombs, a picnic basket full of knives, plush bears, birds, squid and ponies, a spare costume, a stack of kick me signs, an anvil...]
no subject
Just stay out of trouble. For now.
no subject
[Just as fast as it all appeared Harley starts shoveling it all back into her hammer space]
Besides, I got here first. Before Robin and WAY before you. If anything I should be telling YOU that. It's not like there's any tall buildings for you to hang criminals from around here. You're gonna scare the locals with that suit of yours.
no subject
[And like heck he was going as Bruce Wayne here.]
no subject
Maybe some nice primary colors like red, blue and yellow. Or green and red, I like red. But too much of it makes you look like a devil.
no subject
no subject
We coulda done it up extra pretty for the holidays too. Make you look like Candycane man or something.
...for the record you realize you're the only person around here with hooky hands like that right? And a body with such...sharp corners?
no subject
[This would be harder than he thought.]
no subject
...Oh and for the record? Ivy is here too so watch yourself around the plants. She's not causing trouble either so you respect the green and we're all peachy keen.
[She kind of likes giving orders to Batman, even silly brick batman]
no subject
I'll keep that in mind. I'll try not to stick my cowl in on things anymore than necessary.
