TEST DRIVE MEME
Hello and welcome to the COSMOGRAPHIA TEST DRIVE MEME! This is a place where you can get a feel for your character(s) in the game's setting! A couple quick points before we get down to business:
☆ Please take a look at our Premise, World Information, and our FAQ to get a feel for the rules and setting. This is great if you want to see what the game is about before jumping in!
☆ Test Drive threads are certainly allowed to be used for samples for your application, should you choose to submit one!
SAMPLE SCENARIOS:
A: By whatever means, you've tumbled through a hole into a cavernous temple. Gems suspended in bubbles float about the ceiling, and a large Heartlike gem looms before you. Touching it, whether out of curiosity or frustration, will give you some basic information, but then again, there's no guarantee you're just going to walk up to a giant weird thing in the middle of a giant weird room and touch it, right? Why not take a look around and see for yourself what kind of place this is? Perhaps you'll run into someone in the same predicament as you, or perhaps you'll run into someone who can help explain why there's a weird rock now affixed to your body?
B: It's Thursday in Waverly Bay, and that can mean only one thing: the weekly Farmer's Market is here again! Stalls not only from farmers on the outskirts of town but from crafty residents with interesting homemade items to sell, and businesses looking to attract the Market's crowd are all here! Are you shopping for a good deal on vegetables for dinner? Or perhaps you're getting a feel for the residents, having recently arrived? Or, perhaps, are you an industrious gem who's looking to set up shop? Either way, you're bound to run into somebody in this bustling, busy place.
C: Uh-oh! Looks like you've run into a monster! Apparently, from what little you've heard, you can shapeshift into things and pull a weapon from your gem, and you have some sort of special power, but maybe you don't know what it is yet, or you're still not used to using it? Guess you're going to have to learn on the job. Don't leave your fellow gems hanging if you see them fighting one of these little guys either! You're going to need each other to take 'em down!

Well if she was so hot on it. And honestly, being a story character... was that because she was a Non-Player Character like Erius, or something else?
"Sure, why not. Lets go grinding. I could use the EXP."
no subject
"Woo! Fifty HL says my first unique skill is Star element!"

Putting up his mask again, he sighed. "Let's go."
no subject
Hmm.
"Hey, you think there might be frogs in the woods? If we catch them, I could make Frog Sweat Curry!"
DO NOT LET HER MAKE FROG SWEAT CURRY
no subject
Cause Frog Sweat Curry sounded like the most horrible thing in the world.
no subject
"Okay! Onward!"
no subject
... she's probably fucking right about that. Even if his stats only currently went to about 21k in HP.
"Hopefully we'll find some loot, or a treasure chest somewhere this time."

More or less he was looking for items, or potions or something to add to his inventory. Gold was nice too, but less of a priority.
So like in Elder Tale, he couldn't use his minimap as he tapped the map data. "I guess we'll have to make a map later, if we keep going deeper into this forest. Wish I had scribe."
no subject
no subject
"Only the weird parts are like a game in Elder Tale."

From the underbrush, a huge triffid-like monster burst free as it shot out its vines.
Shit, I was so caught up in talking to her that I didn't even notice...!
With one arm caught by the vine, Leonardo drew his second. "Go for the base!"
no subject
Roaring out her battle cry, Priss swings her spear at the base of the plant-thing. What a weird Alraune, it doesn't even have a humanoid upper body.
no subject
Leaping to the treetops, he brought his weapon hilt down atop the monster with a cry of "Paralyzing Blow!"
The monster reeled but to Leonardo's dismay, it didn't display any status change. "Damn, I must not have it right now."
no subject
Stabby stab stab! Priss solves her problems with violence!
no subject
Grimacing, he appeared behind the opponent. "The problem is making it stay down! Accel Fang!"
Striking the monster three times, he made a "tch" noise as the attacks didn't multiply his speed. "I've lost a lot of powers in the transfer here!"
The triffid was at least suffering a lot of damage from both sides. One more good hit should do it.
no subject
That's not even close to strange for her, considering some of the ninjas she's worked with.
Coiling her legs underneath her, Priss jumps, catching air like an up-and-coming college basketball star, extending the metaphor with a truly wicked slam dunk into the triffid's gaping, leafy maw.
The slam-dunk used her spear, just to clarify. She doesn't have the power to summon basketballs.
no subject
"Good job. I wonder if this is actually all useful..."
It looked like junk, but that was to be seen. Identify was just something they'd have to do on their own.
no subject
no subject
He... honestly stopped playing the game before that. But he vaguely remembered it after friends had come complaining to him he stopped playing Disgaea and refocused on Elder Tale.
"Well, lets see what we've got."
Looking through the items he noticed [35 Dollars] pop up as well as [Old Shoes] and [Broken Baseball Bat].
no subject
"You can have the shoes."
She did promise, after all.
no subject
"Do you want to divide the money? It's about fifteen dollars split down the middle."
Some poor sod must have dropped his wallet and the triffid picked it up.
