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!





F E A R

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.]


D R A G O N A G E

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!]


C O N F U S I O N

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!]

Ranma lets out a slight breath he didn't realize he was holding. This girl's got common sense, which is great. Would he have fought the demon? Sure. But not knowing what it was would have been a real disadvantage for him, he's sure.

He follows her lead without hesitation, not really sure what she wants. Maybe to give a proper thank you, or ask for something else. Oh, well, he won't know until she says so. But he's definitely a little curious.

"So, uh.... What was that about back there?"

Yeah, Liv sighs too. That was way too close for comfort. She'd thought she was over that, the so-called-by-her-parents post traumatic ennui. She'd thought she'd been dealing since unofficially becoming Clive's partner.

It must still be there, biding its time. Great.

Well, crisis averted. Time to not freak this kid out.

"That demon dredged up some old issues I'd moved past." She shrugs. "Thanks for helping me out. It could've gotten ugly. I'm not in the mood to be possessed."
mistermistress: (;.)

Apologies, got slowed down by holidays.

"A demon, huh?" So that's what it was. "I thought demons would be alot scarier. Or put up a fight. Or something."

Where he's from, nobody listens to him and everything ends in a fight. Go figure. Must be just him.

"No sweat. You looked like you were pretty down. Didn't want you to do anything you'd regret."

He looks Liv over.

"Uh, are you okay, now?" You know, just to be sure.

no worries~

"Pushing me to want to do what I almost did isn't scary enough for you?"

But it doesn't matter now. It's over. They're both safe and getting away from the demon and its evil designs. Liv thinks, fleetingly, that she should induce full-on zombie mode and try to kill it, but the hit her cognitive abilities take when those instincts overtake her will likely just result in her death. She can help more by doing what the boy did for her just now.

"Yeah, I'm fine now. That was-- I'm dealing with it." And now she's hungry. Crap. Time to go talk to Hope. "I have to get going. I'll see you around? I'm Liv, by the way."

"Well, when you put it that way, yea, I guess that's scary." But, look. You didn't go through with it, right? Ranma's just not easily tormented by what-ifs. Now if Liv started actually acting on that behaviour, yea, that probably would have been scary.

Ranma raises a slightly skeptical eyebrow at Liv's claim in that she's dealing with it. But, oh, well. He's not going to pester. She's out of the dangers of suicide. If she wanted anymore help from him, she'd probably ask. She looks pretty capable of herself.

"Yea, I'm Ranma Saotome. Nice to meet you." Actually, it's pretty nice meeting a girl that isn't crazy and secretly supposed to be his fiance. "Guess I'll see you around."

He pauses as he starts to leave.

"Actually..." He looks back at Liv. "Do you have a map or something I can use? I have no idea where I'm at."
