test drive meme #12
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 August 25th, and apps are open September 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: O SHIT WADDUP
[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 hop right on you and chow down. This time, the Door has brought in several Doomed, from the Final Fantasy XI video game.
These strange undead creatures look somewhat froglike in appearance, but rumor has it they're actually made from a bunch of gross dead bodies all stuck together. Their whiplike tongue can hurt pretty bad, and if that wasn't enough, they can emit gasses that make it hard to concentrate, fight, and even stand upright. Have fun!]
SCENARIO TWO: PARANOIA
[Out of nowhere, you received a message on your phone. It's most likely from an unknown number - but not necessarily. It could be from someone you know, a number you recognize. A friend, an enemy, a trusted ally. But it's not who the message is from that matters, it's what it says.
Listen to me. They've been lying to you this whole time, and now they're coming for you. That, and nothing else.
So what will you do? Laugh and ignore this clearly missent text? Text back, try to get more details? Freak out? Or maybe you already know what it's talking about - who it's talking about. Maybe it's talking about that person who just walked by you. Didn't they look at you for a little too long? Doesn't it look like they might have a weapon?
You've got to protect yourself in whatever way you can. Who knows what they're plotting.]
C O M B I N A T I O N
SCENARIO THREE: LOUD VALLEY
[There you were, walking down one of Hadriel's rubble-strewn streets, when out of nowhere a cheery tune played. And then... everything changed.
Now there are rainbows along the cave ceiling, candy in the shops, walls painted in bright colors. Everything is cheery and happy and designed to lighten your heart. And if you walk around, you may just find your very own animal companion waiting to frolic and play with you! Sure, it'll all change back to normal Hadriel before long, but right now you might as well enjoy it.
This is a mini version of our Loud Valley event this month!]

I don't know if mice really like cheese or if that's just a myth. [ She considers the little guy on her shoulder. ] I think it'd eat whatever you offered it, really.
no subject
( okay so they're magical animals but even he - just about - knows that dogs and chocolate don't mix. ) Does he have a name?
no subject
[ He's a sweetie, after all. He's also a cute lil' mouse, and not like... a rat, or something gross. ]
Don't let him eat candy! [ Hannah advises sternly, but laughs. ] He'll get sick!
no subject
that's what she said) He's sweet. ( like Hannah, really. )H-hey- I wasn't gonna. ( he's pretty hard to say no to but thankfully he seems to be distracted with pets and dog biscuits. )
no subject
He is cute, isn't he? [ For a mouse. You know. Jacques nuzzles her a little and she giggles, tickled by the tiny gesture. ]
So is yours, though. [ She adds earnestly. ] I hope they stick around, but I doubt they will. And... I guess they could get hurt around here, and that'd just be too sad.
no subject
Yeah. Em said things get pretty rough down here. ( it's one thing keeping your dog around when a natural disaster occurs, but when there's monsters around? ) Guess we should make the most of it.
( and, as if hearing that, Ray decides it's time to bring a stick. fancy playing fetch, Hannah? )
no subject
[ It's sort of inherent with the word 'monsters,' she thinks. Just then, Ray drops a stick at her feet, and she laughs lightly, dipping down to scoop it up. ]
Here you go, boy. [ And she tosses it a good distance for him. ]
no subject
(that's a pretty low bar to set, admittedly.)
he watches Ray run off to fetch the stick, laughing under his breath. this event, whyever it exists, is wonderful. he could deal with this. )
Yeah. Guess it will. ( he... isn't entirely sure how he's going to cope with that. it sounds terrifying, but he can't let Em deal with these threats, can he? can't just... do nothing. not again. ) As long as we stick together...
( teams always do better. )
