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 forcosmographia, 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.

Uh-oh that gem-like is glowing, in her experience she's learned not to trust things that glow, Starlight backs up with her horn pointed in front
You'd like that wouldn't you? Who are you? What are you? And where am I, are you the one who summoned me here?
no subject
I'm Naomi, I'm a human, and you're in the Temple at the point of Waverly Bay. As for what drew you, it was this gem - the Heart.
[She gestures to the massive gem in the room, but then turns her attention on the pony. Pointing her horn at her perhaps, but Naomi's not bothered.]
Your magic isn't going to work as it did in Equestria. A fraction of it maybe, but it comes from your gem now.
no subject
My magic has been feeling..."off" now that you mention it.
How far away exactly am I from Equestria?
no subject
1/2
Okay, so not only am I in completely forgien underground crystal temple with a rock that weakened my magical abilities, I'M NOT EVEN IN THE SAME CORNER OF REALITY?!
2/2
Well...at least I'm not dead for whatever THAT'S worth.
Were you summoned as I was?
no subject
I was. [She touches her own gem] This isn't some conscious fashion statement. Anyway, if you touch the Heart Gem, you'll receive some more information about this place. It may possibly give you an idea of your abilities here.
no subject
Can the heart gem be trusted?
no subject
no subject
"Human" you say your species was? I have no recollection of humans in Equestria, and yet you seemed to know where I was from, how is that?
no subject
no subject
Interesting.
[Suddenly there a sharp pain in her left foreleg, that initial landing must've hit her harder than she thought. In a reflex she rubs it trying to ease the pain]
no subject
... Let me see you leg.
no subject
Hesitantly she moves her leg outward to be examined, but also lowers her head slightly reading her horn...just in case]
no subject
[The glowing stops momentarily and she lifts her hands.]
... How's that?
no subject
Once it was done Starlight pressed down and applied some weight on her leg utterly dumbfounded at what just happened. This "human" helped her, despite having no real reason to. Any chances of this being a ruse or trap were slowly drifting from her mind]
Better actually, thank you.
no subject
[Kind of why she decided to post herself. Standing up again, she doesn't have much else to say about it. She's happy to help... even if she doesn't express it.]
I'll try to answer any other questions you have, but keep in mind, I haven't been in this world very long myself.
no subject
[She regains her composure]
The least I could do now is introduce myself, my name is Starlight Glimmer.
no subject
I am Naomi Kimishima. Just Naomi will do when we're outside of the clinic.
no subject
[Wait...what is this feeling she has...a strangely familiar feeling, a feeling it feels like she's forgotten. N-no it can't be that feeling. Shake it off Starlight, think of something else, anything else]
I'm feeling a tad peckish, and I have a feeling this place doesn't exactly have a cafeteria. It would be helpful if I had any currency.
no subject
[Ah, that would be something.]
Well, when I'm in the Temple, I don't exactly carry currency on me. But, I'm sure I could prepare something in my room.
no subject
Well...i-it would be rude to refuse.
no subject
no subject
[Keep. It. Professional]
