dankmemes | Test Drive Meme #8

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.

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: DEAD FLESH BUFFET
[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 swarm around you and chow down. This time, the Door has brought in a group of rotfiends, from the video game The Witcher.

These unpleasant-looking creatures are necrophages, meaning they feed on the flesh of the dead, and if that flesh is in short supply they are happy to add to it. Normally found in groups, they are fast and difficult to corner. What's more, when on the verge of death, they have an annoying tendency to explode into a flammable cloud of poisonous toxins. You left your torch at home, right?]

SCENARIO TWO: MMM WHATCHA SAY
[There you were, just walking along the street, minding your own business like a good underground hell-city citizen, when all of a sudden you saw someone. It was like love at first sight - if by 'love' you mean 'deep burning hatred'. You've never wanted to kill someone so much, and why? Well, you're not really sure, but there's probably a reason! You'll just have to figure it out. Or not. Who needs a reason for murder, anyway?

Or maybe you're the one someone else has targeted. Maybe you know they're after you and you're desperately trying to watch your back. Why do they hate you? You don't even know them. Or maybe you do, maybe they're your best friend. Either way, this is a super awkward situation, and someone might end up dead. Hopefully not you!

This is a mini version of our Assassin event this month!]

SCENARIO THREE: SCRATCH OFF
[This morning, you received a scratch ticket in the mail (who knew Hadriel even had mail?), addressed to you. The instructions are clear enough - scratch off three matching icons, and you win a prize! Sure, okay. But here's the grand prize: a one-way ticket home.

Unfortunately, try as you might, you aren't gonna win that one, but keep hoping! And hey, just think of all the other GREAT PRIZES you could win: an inflatable duck, a plastic ring to give your sweetheart, an empty can of Red Bull, a cell phone charm shaped like a strange green creature with a boner.

So what if you didn't win that ticket home? You got something almost as good: a shitty prize! Thanks, Hope!]

[ The growl catches her off guard, but it doesn't startle her. Thanks to D-Dog, she has become quite accustomed to he's growling when an enemy is nearby. Quiet spins around, hand on her leg as she is ready to pull out her knife if need be. It looks as if she doesn't need to do anything at this moment however because the creature has been taken care of by the strange, human-wolf being.

Now the sight of him does startle her a little bit because she has never seen someone like him. Sure, she has seen supernatural beings and she is one in a sense, but too see a man who has such wolf like features and is quite packed. He must be friendly however if he is willing to help a stranger, but she keeps her guard up. One can never be too careful though.

All she really does is shrug in response, wearing a look to say 'thanks' however. ]

[He gives a quiet hum in response. Not a talker, huh?]

If you're gonna keep fighting those things, find somewhere to hide first. They're not smart.

[He jerks a thumb over his shoulder at one of the spiralling buildings. They might not look it, but inside is hollow. He rolls his shoulders as he looks away, trying to ignore the smell of the poisonous residue the monsters leave behind.]

[ Perfect, a high enough spot that would allow her to snipe from a better position. There is just one problem though.

The poison.

Quiet had not been paying attention to how close she stood to the fumes as she had been looking at the building Bigby pointed out. Coughing, Quiet moved back a few steps. Grunting in a frustrating manner, Quiet cursed to herself. Her abilities have been hindered for the moment because of it and of course this has to happen when they had a fight on their hands. Don't mind her as she does her best to move away from the gas while coughing. ]

[He's ashamed at himself for not remembering sooner that not everyone can handle poison as well as he can.]

Ah, shit...

[He moved in closer to her (...is she taller than him?) and gently holds her shoulders to help steer her clear of the poisonous residue.]

Deep breaths, kid. Don't push yourself just yet.
