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!]
no subject
Wouldn't telling people about your whole "powers thing" take away whatever advantage they give you.
no subject
[no???????????????????????????]
no subject
hah jk Matt is still totally stoic, he is a pillar of stoicism even if, apparently, this guy can tell he's fucking pissed. ]
Who are you?
no subject
anyway, he doesn't miss a beat he's not going to be phased by your anger dude]
Matthew Murdock, attorney at law. [ :))))) ] I'd give you a business card, but, well.
no subject
No.
Matt doesn't. He. Does Not.
That is not what he wanted to hear, in fact it is the opposite.
This is some weird alternate universe cave bullshit. What.
FUCKK!!! ]
Funny, that's my name too.
[ IT'S NOT FUNNY AT ALL in fact it's negative funny to Matt but he's become animmobile statue of rage so he's pretty sure if he moved right now he'd just rupture a vessel. ]
Right down to the... attorney at law bit.
no subject
[but he doesn't say it like sarcasm, he says it like he truly is 100% fascinated. he leans forward on his cane more into matt's space, as if it matters whether he's closer to him or not to get a sense of him. it's about the sentiment of the gesture and making people nervous more than it is the goal of it.]
Let me be the first to congratulate you for not dying prematurely. [why matt why] You seem to have it all together. [he gestures at him (why) and smiles. at least hes taking this in stride i guess]
no subject
At the very least, Matt doesn't react to Murdock getting up in his space. He's just as bright in his world on fire there than he would be if he stepped back like five feet. Which would be an acceptable alternative right now. ]
Yeah, this cave doesn't normally just hand out Ikea boxes. Dragons and demons are more the usual fare.
[ So YEAH it is a big deal that he's doing okay and he will take that compliment however backhanded you may intend it to be, Murderdock. ]
no subject
Dragons and demons? That must've been fun.
no subject
[ < sarcasm > ]
I hear we might get killer tomatoes next, that should be a riot.
no subject
[go home jesus]
no subject
How are we the same person. What the hell kind of universe did you come from?
no subject
[i see your memes and raise you another one, bitch.]
no subject
That's not an answer.
no subject
Wow, okay, lets not get touchy. Multiverse theory happens, okay? A little nudge here a little push there, pretty soon you've got a whole different ball game.
[at least hes relaxed. i mean hes been keeping tabs on spider-woman so you know he's been "keeping an eye out" on silk too]
Here, I'll make you a deal. You help me put together this ikea disaster and I'll answer your questions about my world. How's that?
no subject
Matt needs to fucking chill. Evidently this Matt is more used to weird multiverse shit. Matt can deal. ]
Fine. [ It's not fine. ] Fine, let's get this over with.
no subject
[if matt's not going to be helpful he'll pocket the booklet and look for the long skinny piece himself]
All things considered, I think I'm being very nice. Offering to answer your questions and everything, counselor!
no subject
Don't "counselor" me.
[ Matt scoffs. A long, skinny piece? He can find that. His powers aren't even nerfed or anything, he can 'see' everything perfectly just judging by the way the air bends around the pieces. He holds up a piece for Murdock to inspect, however his super-senses work. ]
Here, is this it?
no subject
That seems right. So what's your first question?
no subject
[ Matt hands off the piece to be assembled... wherever, that's Murdock's job. He could start anywhere, like where he went to law school, or if he's in a private practice or maybe if his parents are alive or dead. But instead he starts with: ]
How'd you get your powers?
no subject
[he says it nonchalantly, as he takes the piece, but he isn't as used to having to hide his heart rate as he is with everything else. it's a strong play for anyone who can't hear heartbeats, but matt should be able to hear the skip anyway. the tell that says nonchalance isnt the whole story
he lays the piece on the ground and feels along to make sure the holes are on the correct side. satisfied, he fishes out a wooden peg that feels the same size as the hole and generally like what was printed on the page.]
I was lucky that I survived.
no subject
[ Can't lie to a liar, Murderdock. ]
What's the next piece?
[ He's taking this challenge to heart ok. ]
no subject
[ i mean, he knew he just wanted them both to be aware that he was aware of this situation. ]
There are four smaller rectangular pieces we will need.
no subject
[ He was gonna figure it out eventually, Matt's not surprised. Matt surveys what they've got. Of course, there's rectangles of multiple sizes. ]
How much smaller?
no subject
[he holds up the paper booklet for matt]
What's with the scare quotes?
no subject
[ Obvs. ]
Paper isn't my strong suit. [ Matt waves off the instructions, grabbing the four pieces instead. ] Here, these should be the ones.
[ I mean, ink would help his senses but everyone uses laser printing now. It's not cool. ]
