Test Drive Meme #9

[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 May 24th, and apps are open June 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:
I'VE SEEN ENOUGH HENTAI TO KNOW WHERE THIS IS GOING
[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 malboro, from the Final Fantasy video game series.

These plant-like monsters are essentially comprised of long, tentacle-esque stalks- sometimes with eyes on the ends- and large, gaping mouths. Their breath can be poisonous and literally make you sick to your stomach, and- just your luck- they're carnivorous. Happy hunting!]

SCENARIO TWO: DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME
[You're so tired- at least you've got a reasonably safe place to rest your head at while you recuperate, right? After all, nothing can go wrong when you're asleep.

Aaand that's where you're mistaken. For this event, all characters who fall asleep will either be Hosts or Visitors in their, or someone else's dreams. All dreams are inflicted by one of the four gods (Hope, Delight, Rage, or Fear), and will have their presence influencing the events within your dreams in order to harvest their desired emotion from you.

The sky is essentially the limit, so long as your dreams correspond with one of the four gods. Happy sleeping!

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

SCENARIO THREE: JUST SAY NO
[On your kitchen table the next morning is a blue pill. Just the one pill, along with a glass of what seems to be water. There's a note in elegant script next to the pill that merely says 'TAKE ME'.

If taken, the pill can have a variety of effects. You can hallucinate, you can get uncontrollable giggles, you can feel drunk, you can feel like colors all have textures and shapes and the world is looking at you through a kaleidoscope! The drug can have whatever effect the player desires, as long as it's pleasurable or fun.

So: do you take it? Can you hear someone who already took the drug, stumbling down the street? You, uh, might want to help them, and do be careful. There's no telling what kinds of monsters are still out there.]

Victor Talbot | Baccano! | OTA!

[One | Monsters!]

[Victor had been minding his own business when he got tangled up, literally, in a fight with some hidieous plant monster. The first attempt at eating him leads to some ruined clothing and a very angry FBI agent. Once he finally gets out of that mouth, and back on his feet, he turns to try and pull his gun on the thing.]

That's it. I don't know whose idea of a great lab experiment you were, but where I come from you don't just eat people.

[Well...]

Unless you're a greedy asshole. So how about you eat this...

[Victor reaches to draw his gun but instead just finds his torn holster. The gun's probably in the mouth of that... thing!]

Son of a....

[And then it exhales on him. The cloud gets Victor coughing and choking before he gags and even throws up on the pavement. At least the plant got him to shut up. Also, it is reaching out intending to try and eat him again.]


[Three | Fun police]

[Victor's on a rampage. Already he has a pocket with several blue pills he's confiscated. Now he's tracking down anyone else he sees with them.

This is not just because someone high off the pill barged into his room and pissed him off. Why would you say that?]

Hey! You! Don't you dare eat that. Give it here. People need to stop taking random drugs. What is wrong with you people? I'm going to dispose of them and then I'm going to have to round up those who took them next.

[Yes, Victor is assuming everyone with the pills is a potential drug addict. He does not seem sorry about this.]
