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.]

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!]

Yeah. "Freak accident."

[ 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?
notthekingpin: (drink that kool-aid)

[personal profile] notthekingpin 2016-11-28 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
It should be the only one there are four of. But you can have a "look" if you want.

[he holds up the paper booklet for matt]

What's with the scare quotes?
devilsavocado: (sense; focusing)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-11-28 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
I'm quoting you.

[ 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. ]
notthekingpin: (you're coming with me)

[personal profile] notthekingpin 2016-11-28 06:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but you're making it sound like you don't believe me.

[which is rude?? anyway ikea booklets are ink and newspaper print everyone knows that god put together some furniture sometime]

But yeah, those seem right.

[ok ask another question or whatever matt]
devilsavocado: (screenreader; shrug)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-11-28 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Saying "freak accident" is about as true as me saying "I'm just blind."

[ Shhh, okay, maybe Matt wants to test Murdock! YOU DON'T KNOW! ]

Your dad. What was he like?

[ Ooh, going straight for the jugular here. ]
notthekingpin: (this place about --)

[personal profile] notthekingpin 2016-11-28 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
You're not "just blind," you have superpowers.

[i mean he knows whats what matt is pointing out but whatever if matt is going to be sassy he's going to state the obvious that's just what it is.]

My father was a boxer. He lost a lot and he made a lot of mistakes and one of them cost him his life.

[wow what a great time to hammer the nail between these pieces!!!]
devilsavocado: (l&z; lie detector)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-11-28 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Same here.

[ Though judging by the way Murdock's rage spikes, it's not the same at all. ]

Do you know Stick?

[ Probably better than the mom question... ]
notthekingpin: (you're coming with me)

[personal profile] notthekingpin 2016-12-02 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I knew him, yes.

[he has one of the shelves put into the side success.]
devilsavocado: (scarf; thinks)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2016-12-03 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
How long?

[ Not long in Matt's case. That should be obvious by the question. ]
