Test Drive

[medietas_mods]

Welcome to Medietas! Are you interested in joining the game? Do you have an old muse you want to dust off? Are you looking for a place to voice test a brand new character and would like to do so in our little island setting? Well, you've come to the right place!

You all know what to do but if you don’t, just follow the instructions and HAVE FUN!

How To Play:

→ Comment with the character you’d like to test drive. Don’t forget to add their name and canon in the subject line.
→ Choose a scenario, or start your own!
→ Tag around!

Possible Scenarios:

1. New Arrival: You have just arrived on the island of Medietas, in the city of Aerilon via a floating boat with people you may or may not know. Of course, you can't help wondering what the heck is going on here, or how you even got on the boat in the first place. But as soon as the vessel docks you are greeted by some lovely locals who offer you a map and a communications device before leaving you to your own. You probably have questions and there seems to be a number of people there already who may or may not have those answers. Talk to them! Or, get on the network and introduce yourself!

2. Getting Settled: So, you've arrived, but now there's five islands you should get yourself acquainted with. Meet your starter home neighbors! Start your new job! Check out the market on Aerilon. Or, attend one of the many block parties!

3. Lost!: Somehow you got yourself turned around and confused and getting back to where you want to be is looking impossible.

4. Wild Card: Got something else in mind and want to create your own scenario? Go for it!

Bran Stark | Game of Thrones | Option 1 (Season 1 canon point)

[summerswarg]

[The last thing Bran remembered was falling. Being pushed and falling. So when he woke up on the floating boat, he couldn't understand what had happened. Looking around, he didn't see the Queen or her brother, but he didn't see any of his family or Summer. Was he dead?

He continued off the boat and wondered that as he looked around. He was suddenly glad of the lessons Maester Luwin gave him in reading as the map would have made no sense otherwise. Continuing in a random direction, he looked for someone he might know to help him with his predicament. But the longer he found no one, he longer he wondered if he had died. It was a long way down after all.]

[theladyofwinterfell]

[Sansa goes to the docks faithfully every day, carrying her handmade banner in hopes that more of her family will arrive. This is her personal sigil, a crowned direwolf on a field of blue, but she doesn't think it will matter. Her family will know. When she sees a small boy lost among the crush of people, she thinks that it might be her brother. Still, he's not old enough. It's not possible...unless...]

Bran! Brandon Stark! Bran, it's Sansa.

[summerswarg]

[Bran saw the banner and turned towards it. It wasn't the banner of Winterfell but it did have a direwolf so it had to be a good sign. Then he heard his name and his sister's voice and he smiled. Finally someone he knew. Running to her, he embraced her in a hug.]

Sansa! [He'd always been closer to her than to Arya despite the age difference and he was glad to have someone he knew here. Wherever here was.]

[theladyofwinterfell]

[Sansa catches him in a hug and holds him tight, trying not to cry. It's a very near thing. She hasn't seen Bran since she first went south and he'd been lying in a bed, still injured. This Bran can walk and she knows he must be before that awful, awful fall.]

Bran, oh Bran. Bran, I've missed you so much.

[summerswarg]

[Bran's last memories were still hanging around him but he pushed them aside. He was with his sister not the Lannisters. He had no reason to fear. Though he was quite confused by her words.]

But I saw you only a few hours ago. Father had just left for the hunt with the King.

[theladyofwinterfell]

[Sansa shakes her head. No, if he doesn't remember, she can't tell him. Still, she's years older than she'd been then and much sadder now.]

No, a long time has passed. This place has a strange magic to it. I'm as old as Robb now.

[summerswarg]

[Bran stepped back and looked at her. She was certainly older.]

Strange magic indeed. Is Robb here with you? Where is here anyway?

[theladyofwinterfell]

[The mention of Robb makes Sansa's mouth turn down a bit in sadness and she shakes her head. How does she explain to her dear, sweet younger brother that their entire world has been turned upside down? How does she tell him that House Stark as he knows it is no longer and that they're practically an extinct house in Westeros? She cannot.]

Robb isn't here. This is...this is a strange place, a place where the living and the dead are both here and alive and well. Isn't that fascinating? Aunt Lyanna is here.

[summerswarg]

[That brought an interesting smile to his face.] Aunt Lyanna? That's amazing. Are there other family members here too? I've always wanted to meet Brandon the Builder.

[If the dead could come back to life, the possibilities were endless.]

[theladyofwinterfell]

[Sansa smiles, glad to talk about this happy thing instead of things that just make her melancholy and withdrawn.]

Just Aunt Lyanna, so far, but who knows what might happen in the future?

[summerswarg]

[Bran nodded enthusiastically but he had still had misgivings.] As much as that sounds like fun, what about home? We're meant to be going to King's Landing tomorrow. You, me, Father and Arya. I'm going to be a knight one day.

[theladyofwinterfell]

No, no, we're not going to King's Landing, Bran. Not now. Things have changed. We're here now.

[Sansa wishes she could go back and tell herself not to go, not to set foot on the road that led her south. She has to stop it.]

[summerswarg]

Oh. But Father can't go alone, even if he is Hand of the King. Why are we here? Does Mother know?

[So many unanswered questions. Everything is so confusing.]

Sansa...what things have changed?

[a_deadman]

[Ned fell into the habit of visiting the docks everyday since arriving and though it was a relief to have half the Stark family presently there, he yearned to see the rest; Catelyn, Robb, Bran and Rickon. But he was there also looking for others he knew. Ones that would yield a far less enthusiastic welcome from the Lord of Winterfell.

On this day, however, the Gods saw fit to reunite him with another of his children. Bran, that small boy whom he missed terribly. The very son that he worried about and wished he'd seen one last time before..

When he saw him on his feet Ned beamed and cut through the people to get to him, calling his name out loudly. It seemed the Gods blessed him by bringing him his son before the accident; a fact he learned was possible the moment he arrived and was greeted by his own sister, Lyanna.

Whether this was the afterlife, or not, Ned wasn't going to question it.]

Bran!

[summerswarg]

[As Bran looked around, his parents were the ones he wanted to see the most. And his father wasn't hard to spot. His name coming from the man's lips and he beamed his happiness and love right back, running towards him and embracing him, glad to not be alone in this strange place.]

Father! [He spoke, burying his head in the clothes Ned wore and enjoying everything about being reunited despite only seeing the man a few hours previously. He had been scared to have been found by either the Queen or her brother but that fear quickly evaporated upon his father's presence. They wouldn't dare hurt him in front of the Hand of the King or the Lord of Winterfell.]
