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!]

H O P E

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!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ It doesn't take all that long to get to the Spires, even at a slightly reduced pace because fuck this ankle decides to make itself known now of all times. She'll rest afterwards, if she's still alive anyway.

Inside, the building is a spiral of thin stairs, with numerous well-locked doors leading to different flats. Thankfully, whoever restored these saw fit to leave keys hanging from the keyholes, so it's relatively easy to see which doors lead to unoccupied flats.

(God, she misses her friends. She misses Marc in a burning way she hasn't since his funeral. He would be able to think up a better plan than this, hell, he'd have a much easier time fighting than this--)

Kate's hand remains against the flap of her bag as she ascends the stairs. Up several floors until she stops at a door. Most of the variety of deadbolts and locks are interior, but the key's lock seems to do a good enough job at keeping things secure, in her experience. She opens the door. ] Here. Get in.

(deleted comment)

[ the stairs do absolutely suck tbh. And, really, Kate doesn't know if the door will hold, but it's supposed to protect against the crap that lurks in this hole in the ground so it can at least withstand attacks for a while. All she really needs is enough time to disappear. ]

Accommodation. S'posed to keep out the creatures around here out. [ The keys dig into her palm. She can keep these until there's some chance of whatever is fucking with people's minds is over.

If he doesn't break down the door first. ]
