test drive meme #14
Welcome to Hadriel's test drive, and thank you again for your interest in the game! As always, our reserves page is here, and our applications page is here! Reserves open November 24th, and apps are open December 1st. Please remember that starting in December, there is an app cap of 20 apps.
Two quick points here as well:1. Any thread made in Hadriel's test drive will be accepted as the sole Action Log sample in the application.
2. All threads made in the test drive can be considered game canon, either through handwaving or through a shared mental experience while coming through the Door!
Test drives will be broken up into specific god mini-events, during which your characters can see how well they fare under the watchful eye of one of the gods. Choose wisely or just simply pick 'em all, and have fun!

SCENARIO ONE: HOW SAUCY
[The Door brings in all that is chaotic and evil in the world. This may include you, may include the person next to you... and may include the monster behind you.
Watch out as you explore the streets of Hadriel, because you're not alone, and there's always something lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect chance to destroy you for your vegetarian ways. This time, the Door has brought in a large group of Killer Tomatoes, from the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes movie.
While it is not immediately clear how these odd creatures can kill you, rest assured that you should be quaking in your boots. They can bite with their weird little tomato mouths, they can roll after you surprisingly fast, and they can even explode! Truly terrifying. But if you manage to defeat some of these agents of terror and chaos, you could make some mean salsa.]

SCENARIO TWO: VACATION IN THEDAS
[While you're exploring the city, perhaps you'll run into another creature that's slipped through a rift and is exploring along with you - or perhaps hunting would be a better term. Yes, Hadriel is teeming with demons straight from Thedas.
Perhaps you'll run into a desire demon, who will offer you your deepest wish - in exchange for your body and soul, of course. Perhaps you'll find a pride demon, who will play upon your strengths and weaknesses until you give in to them. Or maybe it'll be a despair demon, there to crush all your hopes and dreams.
Or maybe, if you're very lucky, you'll just find a nug.
This is a mini version of our Fadeout event this month!]

SCENARIO THREE: SWEDISH MANUFACTURING
[You're in luck! You know that thing you've always wanted? Doesn't matter what it is - a cool weapon, a nice dress, a well-made bedstand, a rare magical invention. Whatever it is, you just managed to find it! Whoa!
Or, well, you managed to find a box with a picture of the item on it. When you open the box, you find all the necessary components for making that item, along with illustrated instructions for putting it together. There's no written instructions, just pictures, but you're smart, you can figure it out! And it'll look just like the photo on the box. You're sure of it.
Better get building! Okay, the instructions don't entirely make sense - did you screw that part in upside down? Wait, are these pages out of order? Maybe you can ask that person nearby for help, or maybe you'll just sink into the depths of confusion and despair. But keep trying! Just think of what you'll get if you succeed!]
[three]
She pauses by the man, eyebrow raised.]
You know what a hologame table is.
[Someone from her world? He's not wearing a uniform. Nor, apparently, is he having much luck with the construction of his chosen--mess.]
no subject
Yeah, and that? [He jerks a thumb at the thing that was supposed to be a hologame table.] Doesn't count as one. [He's just really glad Leia's not here to roll her eyes at him.
He looks the new arrival over, his posture wary, guarded, despite his casual way of speaking.]
But you'd be the second person I've met here who knows what a hologame table is.
no subject
It's a trick. The instructions. Along with most things here.
[She eyes him up and down with a critical eye. The face isn't known to her, though he's dressed like a smuggler. Curious.]
Would the first be Ashoka Tano?
no subject
[What a small galaxy. And Ahsoka had helped! But he's not going to screw up her rep here by mentioning her role in this disaster, if she's even got a rep. Instead he huffs out a breath, sets his hands on his hips, gives the "table" a dark look.]
Would've been nice to get a warning, [he says, dryly] but I guess that'd give the trick away. [One hand drops, brushes lightly and casually over the blaster at his hip.] Still, you'd think the Empire's got better tricks than this.
no subject
[She, better than anyone, would know.]
