dankmemes | Test Drive Meme #10

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.

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: UNBEARABLE
[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 several bereskarn, from the Dragon Age video game series.

While they were once normal bears, these hideous creatures have been corrupted by the Blight into something terrible. They are larger than normal bears and have bone spikes jutting out through their skin, which leaves them with constantly bleeding wounds. They are easily enraged, and will attack fiercely if agitated. Have fun!]

SCENARIO TWO: CLAMOROUS CAVES
[Wow, it sure is weirdly foggy out, considering there's no weather in Hadriel. The sun's dim, the light's strange, and hey - is that an air raid siren? Oh shit.

Welcome to Silent Hill, Hadriel edition. When the siren sounds, the city changes into a twisted, darker version of itself, teeming with monsters and looking like something straight out of your nightmares. And if you're really unlucky, there might be a monster lurking in there just for you, your own personal demon ready to hunt you down. Let's hope you can stay alive until the city changes back!

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

SCENARIO THREE: NO FLAMES PLZ
[This morning you woke up to a letter on your doorstep, addressed to you. Curious, since there's no mail delivery in Hadriel. Upon opening it, you discovered a carefully written letter containing a brutal takedown of something that means a lot to you. Something you really care about

Maybe they're trashing your favorite sports team. Maybe they're calling your hometown a trash pit full of hipsters. Maybe they're saying your boyfriend has weird hair. Or maybe it's worse than that - maybe they're saying that everything you've been working for is a complete waste of time, and you're an idiot for trying. Whatever it is, it's calculated just right to piss you off, and piss you off real bad. And hey. That letter's signed.

Maybe somebody will come by and talk you down - or maybe the person who comes by is the one who's name is on that letter, even if it might not quite be in their handwriting. What're you gonna do? Fight them? Lay an elaborate trap? Try not to let it get to you and talk it out like adults? Yeah right. Time for a reckoning.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Oh. [Noah's eyes widen marginally and he pauses in place, only spurned to move again by worrying sounds out back the way they came. Not super close, but...

Better to not still be here to worry if they get closer.]

You're new. Hi. Sorry.

I'm Noah. Welcome to the murdercave. It's normally not this bad. Someone - Sharon, I think.

[It isn't like Noah has any proof, but he also doesn't want to imagine two people can do this. He moves through the dark and empty shop to the back, where a stock room probably used to be. Jackpot, there's a back door. He begins working the strange locks on it to open them back up as he explains.]

She ... It's like she can bring a different world through to here when she gets upset or wants to or... [The lock snaps open and Noah looks back to Ichigo.] I didn't exactly stop to ask her, you understand.

[He opens the back door just a fraction, just enough to peek out.]

Coast is clear. C'mon.

[Ichigo listens, taking it all in. It's crazy, but not the craziest thing he's has ever heard. His life is--well, had been--downright insane for a while.

Looks like that isn't over.

He's not ruling out the possibility that this is all a nightmare, but until he wakes up, Ichigo is going to take it seriously.]

So if we want to find out how to make this place go back to normal, she's the one we should talk to?

[He's not going to call it anything besides "the murdercave" for the rest of forever, by the way. The atmosphere's a little heavy for it now, but he's going to drop that in casual conversation. It's going to happen.

Anyway, Ichigo wants to find the temple and get to safety, but more than that, if there's a way to stop these monsters, or even just to learn more about why they're appearing and what they are, he wants to do it. He's still following Noah, but slower, clearly thinking about finding Sharon instead of safety.]
