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.

Ah, you think so? Admittedly I'm not as in-touch with my fans as I'd like to me. I've never heard of a yokai.

Technically I'm a Komainu; a guardian dog.

[Wait, fans?]

Fans? [hey] Are you a performer?

[There's a sparkle in his eyes]

Oh! How interesting.

[Mettaton gestures with a flourish.]

Ohhhh yes! I am Mettaton, star performer of the Underground! Although, well, I'm not underground anymore. Minor detail.

Monge~!

[Not everyday you meet someone famous, albeit famous in another dimension but still]

What kind of performances do you do?

A little bit of everything, darling. Singing, dancing, news reports, cooking, method acting attempts to destroy a human -- what can't I do?

[That was a rhetorical question, said with the kind of self-important sigh that could come from an average soap opera actor.]

[Little guy's in awe, you're near the top of his 'amazing people' list...behind his big brother of course]

That sounds monge incredible.

I can't even imagine doing all that.

[Mettaton loves it when people are in awe of him. His screen lights up in a pattern that suggests he's very, very proud of himself.]

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it. My only desire has ever been to entertain.

It must be super hard work zura~

I'd love to see your performance sometime.

[He drapes a giant, gloved hand on his, uh... head? Area? It's hard when you're a box.]

It is, but the fans make it all worth the while.

I'll make sure you're on the notification list when I get properly set up up here, beautiful.
