Test Drive Meme #31
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 April 24th, and apps are open May 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!
F E A R
SCENARIO ONE: WHAT BIG TEETH YOU HAVE
[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.
Even if the monster looks cuddly.
Direwolves are not quite what you medieval fantasy folks might think they are- they're untameable and almost the size of a bear. While usually a predator like the direwolf might wait for the opportune moment to strike, these beasts hunt in packs and are very, very hungry. You won't be able to tame them, and any attempts may result in a couple of missing fingers.]
S O R R O W
SCENARIO TWO: REGRETFULLY YOURS
[Have you ever done something you regret? A thought or an action you've performed that you look back on and wished you hadn't? Even if it's something outside of your control, something you couldn't have known, if there's something rattling around in that brain of yours, it's coming out in full force right now, leaving you guilt-ridden and prepared to confess all your sins to the nearest bystander.
But what if confessing isn't enough? You need to show them how sorry you are in any attempt at redemption you can muster. Work as hard as you can and maybe someone will forgive you. Work even harder and maybe someday you can forgive yourself.
This is a mini version of our Tears of Joy event this month.]
R A G E
SCENARIO THREE: TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK
[The goal is simple: stay together in this room and use the supplies provided to build the best tower you can. You've got matchsticks, popsicle sticks, Q-tips, four different kinds of glue, and various little wheels and doodads. The team with the best tower at the end of the exercise gets a wish granted! That isn't so bad, is it?
Except your teammate is insufferable. Everything from their ideas, to their building strategy, down to their accent is absolutely intolerable to you. How can you be expected to work with such a difficult partner? If you leave the room your tower is forfeit, but who can expect you to stay in these conditions?
Careful- they're just as fed up with you as you are with them. Can the two of you overcome your mutual disdain to build this arts and crafts masterpiece, or will it be a race to the door?]

"You know, I shouldn't be surprised you're here," she says. "It figures it would take you an extra month compared to me."
no subject
"Speaking of 'here'... What is this place? Some kind of low rent afterlife 2.0?" He looks around at the less than pristine setting. His last outpost was in better shape than some of the buildings here. "Because it looks pretty shitty for the world to come."
Not that he's religious to begin with... never really has been. But, spending a few years as a ghost makes it seem like a legitimate question.
no subject
"Some kind of dimensional nexus, where people are brought from different worlds. We're basically here to supply emotional food to the ones they call 'gods'."
While she speaks, Tex pulls out her communicator and finds the introductory page to show him. Half of what she learned about the place on arrival came from that document, so it's as good a place to start as any.
no subject
He's quiet for a few minutes as he tries to absorb the information. Picking and choosing what seems the most useful at the moment. Emotions, 'Gods', new body, random shit, hey look pong.... wait, what?
Church stops dead as he scrolls back and reads it all over again. A couple minutes later looks at Tex and then back to the device and back to Tex.
"Ho-le-shit."
In retrospect it should have been pretty obvious. Granted, the sensation isn't exactly new for him, which makes it easier for him to overlook the differences. Add to it all the distractions... one in particular... and he hadn't even noticed that he has an actual body again.
"Does this place do pizza?"
no subject
She reaches for her device when he's done and tucks it away.
"Something like it, anyway. Close enough for me." She gives him another sidelong look. "Hungry?"
no subject
"Are you kidding me? I haven't eaten in six years. I'll make room for a slice or two."
