Test Drive Meme #33

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 June 24th, and apps are open July 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: WEARS HIGH HEELS WHEN SHE EXERCISES
[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.

And this one is, well, particularly creepy. Especially if you dislike body horror, or spiders, or being eaten. This time, the Door has brought in Virginias, from the video game The Forest.

Virginias are rather disturbing-looking monsters, looking a bit like multiple bodies all squished together. They move quickly, they can charge and leap at you, and those creepy arms and legs hurt like hell. They also make skittering noises, if you want to be even more creeped out. So have fun with that!]


L O V E

SCENARIO TWO: YES, LIKE THAT
[Today, it's you time. You woke up this morning and you knew it was the perfect day to practice a little self-care. To put yourself first. To treat yourself. And that's what you're going to do!

Whether that means drinking too much, skipping out on unwanted obligations, telling people what you really think of them, or eating that last donut - you're looking after you now, and it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks! All that matters is that you're happy. So party on, and let's hope your fun doesn't get in the way of anyone else's life.

This is a mini version of our Love Yourself event this month.]


R A G E

SCENARIO THREE: JUST ONE OF THOSE DAYS
[This morning you didn't wake up wanting to treat yourself. Oh, no. You woke up wanting to show your anger - to the world, to yourself, to anyone watching. You want to break shit, start fights, get into pointless internet arguments. They're wrong, after all.

So why not? Find a stray piece of wood and start smashing windows. Tell someone you don't like the way they're looking at you. Post something incendiary on Twitter Hadriel's network. And wait for the responding anger. That's what you want, right? Someone to face off against?

Let's just hope you don't go too far.]

Fear

[ Geralt was trying to make a quick exit too. Using his Witcher sense, he'd managed to find a lesser travelled path, though there seemed to be at least 8 feet prints. ]

Hmm, the patterns seem to be closely linked... Something big, with lots of legs. Then this set here looks like a boot-print of some kind. Ugh... someone might have bitten off more than they can chew.

[ Talking to himself out loud as he often did. Geralt stood back up, grumbled as he straightened his back before setting off in the direction of the scuffle.

It didn't take him long to find them. A sound of disgust left his lips as Geralt raised his left hand and made a sign with his fingers, looked like a very triangular figure of 8. ]


Yrden!

[ As the spell was spoken, the Virginia seemed to slow down in its approach on Jill. A faint misty purple aura circled the monster, making it seem as if it was treading through molasses. He went for his sword, the steel one attached at his back. ]

You alright?

[ Leaning aside, looking over to where Jill had cornered herself, a less than impressed expression on his face. He knew the spell would wear off soon, Yrden hadn't been something he'd focused his meditation to make it stronger but that was okay, his blade and a good old blast of Igni would finish it off in flames if it came to that. ]

Got a weapon?

[Jill took a solid stance, ready to fight for her life as the thing came toward her at an incredible speed. Or... not so incredible. There's a haze around it and the creature is slowing... down?

She's aware that someone else has arrived and is offering assistance. How? She's not quite sure, but she's going to take advantage of it before it's too late.

Jill doesn't respond just yet. With the creature slowed, she charges toward it, turns her knife and plunges it right into the place she expects the creature's heart is. The monster wails and collapses to the ground. Once it's down, Jill pulls her dagger out and steps back.]


I'm fine now. Thanks.

[ Geralt stepped aside. It wasn't his business anyway unless there was a contract for killing this beast, he'd be doing it out of the kindness of his heart otherwise. Still, he couldn't just stand idly by and let some young woman be slaughtered.

However, as he watched Jill, Geralt realized she wasn't as helpless as he might have thought. Sheeting his sword before making a sigil with his fingers, the sign of Igni. The creature was dying, that much was clear, but Grealt wanted to finish it off, put it out of its misery. He did so by torching it. Stepping back as the smell of burning monster flesh was overwhelming to a Witcher. ]


You seen any more of these around? I don't fancy running into more of them.

[Jill likewise stepped back from the burning carcass, scrunching up her nose at the smell and getting away from the downwind scent of it. Ugh. Burning zombies was never pleasant, either.]

No, not yet. I guess there could be more. In my experience, there's never just one.

[ Geralt knelt down beside the pill of heated ash and embers. Touching it with his fingers, smearing it between finger and thumb of his glove before pulling a small pouch off the back of his belt. Gathering some of the burnt bone and monster part up before attaching the bag back onto his belt. ]

For oil. I'll be able to make something to coat my sword with, help me fight it any more of it's kind off.

[ He thought he better explain what he was doing, so she didn't think he was crazy. ]

Hmm, in my experience, monsters like this often live in groups. Its death has already probably been noticed. We should keep moving.

[He might be explaining what he's doing, but Jill isn't quite sure she gets it. She doesn't see how the remains of the creature will assist, but if it works with fighting others off, she's not going to question it.]

Yeah, okay. Let's go.

[Jill sheathes her knife and readies to be on the way.]
