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.

[Ralph's heading out of the temple, as he passes through the main area, he spots Mami heading towards the door.

He's not seen her around before, so he calls out after her, walking in the same direction.]

Hey! Are you new here?
magicurls: (with a wink)

[personal profile] magicurls 2015-11-13 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, that's...new. Strange, but not witch-like strange. She smooths her skirt and nods.]

I am. It's not a bad place when you get used to it, huh?
wreckyeah: (Proud to do my duty.)

[personal profile] wreckyeah 2015-11-13 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's not so bad, even if the arrival's a doozy.

[He offers a massive hand out to her for a handshake.]

I'm Ralph, what's yer name?
magicurls: (Default)

[personal profile] magicurls 2015-11-15 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I'm Mami Tomoe.

[She bows, then reciprocates.]

Are you on the police force?
wreckyeah: (What's that?)

[Ralph very gingerly shakes her hand, using only a finger and his thumb in order to do so.]

It's nice to meet ya, Mami!

[He thinks for a moment before responding, that wasn't something he was sure about.]

Uh, not officially, but I do what I can to help out.
magicurls: (magic flower)

[personal profile] magicurls 2015-11-16 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
[She smiles.]

I want to help too, but I don't think I'm really strong enough yet. Is there anything else we do to help each other around town? Cleanup? Studying?
wreckyeah: (Huh?)

[personal profile] wreckyeah 2015-11-16 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Ralph thinks for a moment, tapping a finger against his cheek.]

Cleanup's probably a good one, sometimes the monsters cause a mess. I dunno 'bout studyin', it can't hurt, 'specially if you can dig up somethin' 'bout how to get back home or how to stop the monster attacks.
magicurls: (judgment)

[personal profile] magicurls 2015-11-18 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
How bad have the attacks been? Are people hurt?
wreckyeah: (I don't think so.)

[personal profile] wreckyeah 2015-11-18 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It varies, dependin' on the monster. A couple of 'em just made a mess of the city, others mainly hurt Gems. It's been a while since any showed up, I think everybody's recovered from the last one.
