Test Drive Meme #6

[hadrielmods]

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 February 23rd, and apps are open March 1st.

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: BLOBBED
[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 on the rooftops watching and waiting for the perfect opportunity to separate you from your group and tear you into pieces. This time, the Door has brought in several Blobs, from the similarly titled 1988 movie, The Blob for you meet.

These gelatinous creatures have no weak spots or brains that can be sliced or crushed to kill them. Instead, their only goal is to absorb and dissolve its prey so that it can grow larger. Think that its, er, blob-like form makes it easy to avoid? Think again- it moves faster than one might expect, as shown in its canon 'kill' video here (with a healthy cw warning for gore and 80's movie effects).]

SCENARIO TWO: WENDIGONE
[Hey, that snack you found? It might taste a little too familiar. At least you don't have time to worry about accidental cannibalism too much though, because you've now become host to a vengeful wendigo spirit! The transformation will be sped up for the purposes of this test drive, though you can post at whichever point in the change you desire. Want to tear people to shreds? Go for it. Want to try to clutch onto the last few pieces of your humanity? Be our guest!

On the flipside, as someone who is unaffected, you may be trying to arm yourself and take these wendigos head-on... or, you may be trying to figure out a way you can save them, which would involve somehow trapping them on Hope's altar. Think you can handle that?

This is a mini version of our Who What Where Wendigo event this month!]


H O P E

SCENARIO THREE: CARNATION DAY
[You know those moments in high school that everyone used to dread? Where everyone would spend a week or so with the opportunity to buy a carnation or two for someone they like, only for carnation day to come along and dash any hopes and dreams you had of getting a flower from that special someone?

Well, here's your chance to relive that day- but, you know, hopefully make it end a little happier.

In this prompt, some characters will emerge through the Door- or wake up, or just suddenly appear- with carnations clutched in their hands. These flowers can be any color of your choosing, and all have tags on them. They can be addressed to you or to someone else, and in that FROM category? Well, from your secret admirer, of course- or any other character who may or may not have sent it! Here's to hoping they're a good one!]

[ How strange that must be. To be the same person he once was but... not. It's almost like being a new person. For a second, Blue wonders what the other Noah was like. The kinds of things he liked and how he would react to her right now.

It's a small second, because she quickly realizes that she wants the Noah she knows. The Noah that seems almost reluctant to step away from her. Who smiles at her and talks in weird ghost ways. She likes her Noah. ]

Of course you still get cold. [ She tries to sound casual, hoping he's not upset about the loss of who he was. ] It would be too normal if you were just... human again.

And which one of is "just normal"? [ As much as that's to cheer him up, there's a deeper truth to it that doesn't have to be spoken to be acknowledged. ]

[It does cheer him up. He ducks his head a bit - which is useless in hiding your expression against someone shorter than you but the gesture is made - and there's the faint grin for a moment once more.]

Yeah. Yeah, at least I'm in good company.

[He doesn't sound too upset, anyway. Noah always seems to have a bit of an air of melancholy and anxiety, it's Noah's natural state of being, but right now he seems a lot happier than before. He misses a bit of what's gone, but most of it... he thinks he'd have to choose between himself or his friends, and he'd rather have his friends.]

I'm glad you're here, Blue. I missed you so much.
