test drive meme # 26
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 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: SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL
[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.
This time, the monsters are a bit more transparent, as the Door will bring in a few skeletons! Skeletons often accompany the fear of death and can such be found as entry-level monsters in many different stories and games of all kinds.
Skeletons are well... skeletons.... but they move around like they're still alive. Some of them use weapons to make you fear death by killing you, which is cool for them I suppose. They're not particularly smart and they can be tricked very easily, but once they hone in on a victim they won't rest until they make everyone else just as dead as they are.]

SCENARIO TWO: SQUAD GOALS
[Hey, look to the guy or gal to the left or right side of you. Did you guys just become best friends?
I think you did! For the next little while, you find yourself entering into these odd platonic relationships you'd never considered before. That guy who you kind of awkwardly made eye contact with at the grocery store last week? Best friends! The lady who's friends with your roommate's sister? Inseparable pals!
This event, based off of our recent event of the same name inspires you and all your weird facebook acquaintances to suddenly feel like you're best buds. You guys will share everything together, do everything together, and just generally think the world of one another. Enjoy your new and beautiful friendship!]
S O R R O W
SCENARIO THREE: INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS
[You know that voice deep in the back of your head that you generally ignore? You know, the one that tells you that you're stupid or worthless or that you should push that old lady into traffic? Well, usually you ignore them- we know you do, because you're a decent person who doesn't experience that kind of self doubt.
Now, though, all those little voices seem to have some merit. You're not sure why, but suddenly just giving into your weirdest impulses sounds like a good idea. You'll have to fight even harder to ignore them, particularly the ones that tell you to do something. What would that guy do if you just up and punched him in the face? What about if you just broke that chick's window? You'll have to find out!
Alternatively, all those thoughts about how lame you are and how you'll never succeed at anything are a bit more believable too. Hopefully you don't have too many of those- but hey, if you do then you can always drown your sorrows away at the local bar!]

[ It's hell. Otherworld might as well be hell, he thinks, but this time he's not covered in ash or rust or god knows what else. He doesn't really have time to process what happened, not when he suddenly looks up and the nightmare that is the hospital has been replaced by dirt and--
--well, the smell and stench of death is the same, at least. Harry scrambles up from where he's fallen, reaching for his gun in his jacket pocket. He finds it, aims at the skeleton advancing on him, but when he fires, he's greeted with the wonderful moment of the bullet passing through its ribcage.
Lead pipe it is. He raises it, knocking a skull clean off like he's hitting a home run, grunting with the effort. ]
Where the hell am I?!
[ And why isn't his radio going off? That's what should be happening around monsters, right? ]
ii. intrusive thoughts;
[ He's partial to his old brown leather jacket, even if it's old and a little dated. He's partial to a lot of things, he's always considered himself a creature of habit. To the point that his daughter pressed to go to the resort town just to get him to relax, or at least that's how it came across.
Still. His jacket is something he holds dearly, one of the few material possessions he owns that Jodie had given him before she died, and as he's walking by the lake he feels the overwhelming urge to just throw it.
He does. He does, and it isn't until the article of clothing hits the water that he realize he's just thrown it in the freaking water. Harry's sigh is pointedly Tired, and he makes to start wading into the water to grab it. ]
iii. wildcard;
[ Harry will also be seen in the bar trying to get a decent drink (he needs it) and skirting the Silent Hill zone cautiously, pipe, radio and flashlight always in hand. ]
II
Did that help? [ With whatever feelings are building up in him. Did throwing a dingy jacket into the water help? ]
II.
[Delmar's words come too late as he sees the jacket go flying before slapping on the surface of the water and beginning to sink slowly.
Perhaps he had been too far away for the man to hear him. By the time he manages to get closer, however, the person is already sloshing forward into the river]
Do be careful!
[He reaches out a hand in a 'beckoning gesture']
Now you just come back here and get yourself dried off.
