dankmemes | Test Drive Meme #9

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.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ He looked at her as though she was more insane than whatever the hell they had just faced off against. ]

If that's what you call 'handling it,' I hate to see how you handle anything else.

[ There was definitely a lewd connotation behind what he said, and he paused long enough to wipe the blade of his ax on the tattered edge of his shirt, smearing plant guts all over it. ]

The fuck should I know how you got here? Important thing is that you're here, and if you wanna live, can't have no more repeat performances of whatever it is you were doing before. Handling yourself.

[ He paused, momentarily. And then, relented on his insults long enough to actually answered her first question. ]

Clegane. Sandor Clegane. Your guess about this place is as good as mine. Don't suppose you got some wine on ya, then?

It wasn't like I was expecting that thing. [ She snarls at Sandor, her voice raising slightly with the frustration of the moment.

None of this was right.

She takes a deep breath as he relents, though, unhinging her jaw so she wasn't grinding her teeth as much. She gives a nod of acknowledgement to his name, then with a heavy sigh turned to face him. ]

Eretria.

And if I had wine we'd both be as drunk as they come right now. [ She gives a slight shrug of defeat at the idea. ]

I was doing something really important and now.... [ She shakes her head, then rests her ax over her shoulder. The thing looks like no normal ax, made of a large stick welded to a round blade with spikes. It was obviously made from scrap pieces. ]

If there are more of those things out there, then I should come with you. [ Then, with a smirk: ] If only to show you what it really looks like when I handle it.

[ There's a brief, barely there smirk after her comment about them being drunk as they come if she had some wine. It may not last long on his lips, but it does linger in his eyes, his harshness gone for the most part. Alright. She's not half bad, this Eretria. His attention comes to linger on her makeshift weapon, and he raises a brow. ]

You're gonna show me how you handle things. What? With that? [ He nods at her ax. ] You'd have better luck slicing it with your sharp tongue. That's the saddest excuse for a weapon I've ever seen.

[ Regardless, Sandor falls into step beside her. ]

When I have to go save your life again, you're going to owe me. Owe me some of the finest wine there is. Food, too.

[ He glances over at her with mild amusement, but more than that acceptance. He's accepting her as his temporary travel companion. ]
