Welcome to Medietas and our first ever Test Drive Meme! As we approach the grand opening of the game on April 1st, we thought we’d kick things off with a little something that will get you all interacting in the new setting! And it’s one less sample you have to worry about on your application if you’re considering our little game here.

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’ve just arrived on the island of Medietas, in the city of Aerilon via a … floating boat, with people you may or may not know? You can’t help but ponder what’s going on here, but the vessel seems to be approaching a harbor and when it docks, some lovely locals are standing in wait to greet you. After that they hand you a map and communications device and invite you to find your accommodations and explore.

2. Party, party!: On the evening of your first night in the city, a party is being thrown on Aerilon in honor of your arrival. Eat, mingle, dance, meet the other new arrivals! The locals put on quite the celebration!

3. Go Exploring!: There's plenty of places to explore, be it in your designated housing area, or on one of the adjoining community islands! Hike the mountains in Eurus. Sit on the beaches of Imber with a cocktail, or go swimming. Adventure in the forests of Mundus. Be careful though! Every area has it's dangers.

4. The Bells Are Ringing!: And that means a islands wide warning that something dangerous is approaching! But where the heck are they coming from? Nevermind that, the caretakers rally the children and the senior citizens while Scykal, Imber's local sea monster, emerges from the large body of water on the island.  Interesting.  He hasn't been spotted in a long time.  Help the locals defeat him!

5. Wild Card!: Choose your own scenario!

"It would seem so, though...it strikes me as strange that I am seeing the children that Ned is destined to have. He is not yet married when last I saw him." Which had been several days before.

She had worried how he was and how he felt about her disappearance. Seeing his children raised her concerns once more. "Who is your mother?"

[shadowshepherd]

Lullaby's eyes flickered - literally flicked like a candle or a shoddy lightbulb - as they listened to Sam. He only protected himself and other humans from creatures that hurt humans? That meant that Sam wasn't afraid of them and wasn't going to hurt them! And Lullaby wanted to have a friend in this strange place. Eyes glancing side to side very quickly, they leaned forward and whispered in Sam's ear.

"My mother is the Queen of Darkness. People used to call her Nyx, or Kauket, or Breksta, or lots of other names in different places around the world." Would Sam recognise any of those names? Hypna had taught Lullaby that worship of the Old Gods had all but died out in these times, but it was worth a shot. They leaned back shyly.

Hypna had also told Lullaby not to tell anyone that they were a fledging demi-god, but Lullaby hadn't outright told Sam. So they were being very clever right now.

[iron_beneath_beauty]

"Hand of the King?" Pride filled her. Rhaegar, it had to be his doing. Her family, likely after a time, had come to accept what happened between the Prince and her. As he had assured her, he found them a place at court. Ned, dear, honorable Ned was hand of the King. A place that he would excell, far more than Tywin Lannister.

"Your brothers and sisters, tell me about them."

[iron_beneath_beauty]

Do you know if your family is here? I could help you find them. [She offered her hand to the young girl, already glancing about for the direction of the city.]

It's not safe for you to be out here alone.

[a_chipped_cup]

She gave a half hearted smile, trying to recover her composure after the shock. "I'm Belle."

[nott_caine]

"Dead, undead. I'm standing here in the physical plain, unhurt and not burned. Certainly with no intention of burning." Fire? No thanks. But she is pleased to see Artemis at least return her comment with some sass. It dispelled the awkwardness and trepidation.

"30 years, at least."

[stranger_to_the_rain]

"Thirty years," Artemis repeated, as if she were trying to commit the fact to memory, like the lyrics of a song. "Thirty years. Thirty years."

"Yes, you silly thing, thirty years," Papa said.

She ignored him.

Artemis whetted her lips, turning to look up at the sky above them. The sunlight streaming down on them, making them glow like chalk on the blacktop. It probably should have fazed her more. But thirty years...

"It seems I've missed quite a lot," she muttered.

[theladyofwinterfell]

[Sansa can scarcely believe it. She hasn't seen Arya since their father's death and she had been afraid she was dead just like the rest of her family. For so long, Sansa has thought herself alone in the world. Perhaps it isn't the case.

She reserves herself so much, too afraid to be happy in case it isn't true.]

Arya, come here. Arya, it's me, I'm not dead. I'm perfectly well and...oh, Arya. Arya, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything.

[notarambler]

Sam nodded. "I've done a lot of research into old gods and goddesses like your mom," he says, "Nyx is one of the names I've read about, but I've never met her personally. I've met a lot of other gods and deities though."

[itsawinchesterplan]

Sam turned as she approached and nodded, her words making him grin. "Yeah. I just got here today, and --" He waved a hand at the party. "this is a bit much for me, for just arriving. I knowing nothing about the place, the people, or the reason we're here, and that little meet and greet didn't answer near enough questions, so..."

He paused, realizing he was babbling and justifying himself on something she hadn't asked and internally facepalmed, and smiled apologetically. "Sorry. I'm Sam. When did you get here?"

[a_chipped_cup]

"It's never easy getting pulled into one world from another. Even if it's happened more than once, you still are caught off guard. I can understand why they have a party, letting others have the chance to meet and talk. It's just a lot to take in." He's not alone in that awkwardness.

"It's okay. I'm Belle and I just got here today as well. What luck."

[itsawinchesterplan]

"I'm not a stranger to portals or magic, but it's still a little shaky to the system." He grinned at her.

"I can understand that, too. It just feels too much, too fast, you know? Maybe I'm just being paranoid." He shrugged. He could concede that, even as he would not change his actions, despite doing so.

He extended his hand to her at her welcome. "Well, welcome to the fun, Belle. I guess we're both in for a new adventure." He nodded to her as he looked around.

"Want to get some fresh air? I think there's a balcony somewhere near."

[shadowshepherd]

Lullaby gasped! "You've met other deities? Ooo, tell me about them and how you met them! Are you a Champion? Whose Champion are you?" They eagerly bounced on the spot, taking hold of Sam's wrists in glee.

What luck! The person they first spoke to was friendly towards them, had heard of their mother and even might be a Champion! "This makes you my friend now!"

[notarambler]

Sam chuckled. "I wouldn't call myself one person's Champion," he admits, "I help anyone who needs it. As gods...well I met a muse recently and I met the Christian God a few times that was interesting. And once a Celtic goddess tried to eat me."

Lullaby | Original Character | Party time!

[shadowshepherd]

As the sun set, Lullaby began to feel more confident in wandering through the large, open areas of the city. As the party began to get into full swing, the little shadow began to play, giggling and gleefully chasing shadows through the crowds of people, slipping in and out of darkness as easily as a dolphin jumping in and out of the sea.

Which might be a bit alarming, given they were using other people's shadows to play. They didn't mean to startle anyone by suddenly jumping out from under their feet but children aren't well known for forethought.

Re: Emma Swan|OUAT| 4

[trickshaveaprice]

"Whoa there princess tone it down I don't think the whole island heard you," he replies with a grin, "I'm a shape shifter that's how I know about magic okay. Takes one to know one and all that."

[a_chipped_cup]

"Neither am I. I think I just need to start carrying luggage on me. Always be prepared, right?" She laughed in return.

"I don't know. I'm not sure if we have reason yet to worry. Or maybe that's just me, mainly because I'm used to the villains being in your face and menacing." It's not like they have really tried to hide what they are.

She grinned, "Sure. I think that might be what I need. It's a bit warm in here."

[shadowshepherd]

"She must have been really hungry." Humans weren't very tasty from Lullaby's limited experience and Sam was a big human to try and eat. "Have you heard of Hypna? She looked after me. She taught me how to put people to sleep, and how to change their dreams."

<s>holy sh- it's spiodermun</s>

[shadowshepherd]

Lullaby's not sure why there's dancing but dancing! They gleefully clap their hands, watching Deadpool and giving a twirl too, letting their cloak lift up as they spun around. Their eyes glowed brightly.

"Yay! Life is good!"

Re: Oliver Queen | Arrow | Party

[viridescere]

Oliver nodded, mind already forming a plan. "We'll see where we are in a few days and regroup? I'm not thinking it's a good idea to push you too far when you're still healing."

He paused for a moment and touched her hand. "You're my sister. I'm never going to be able to let go of being protective."

[summerswarg]

Bran smiled, glad she was happy. "Robb's the oldest. Then Sansa. She always tries her best to be a lady. Arya wishes she was a boy and I hate it when she shows off. Rickon's just a baby and Jon's a bastard."

He didn't have much to say. He was too young to really understand what was going on and what she wanted to know without more direct questioning. At least he hadn't ask anything to make her wonder of her own existence.

[itsawinchesterplan]

Sam nodded. "Or a fanny pack. But yeah, that's a good idea."

Sam nodded, conceding her words without relenting on his own paranoia. He had been through too much to let down his walls just yet.

"Sounds like your world makes things clearer than mine. Mine tends to make things very gray-tinged."

Sam smiled and led the way outside through some bay doors after a brief search. It was a little cool, but not bad, and there were nice breezes that made him inhale and nod. "The air, though... its been a long time since I breathed air this clean."

Re: Podrick Payne | Game of Thrones | 1

[theladyofwinterfell]

Sansa has been searching to find something, anything familiar. Since jumping from Winterfell's battlements, she's been lost and coming to this place has been no help. The islands aren't familiar and neither are the faces but when she spots one she remembers from King's Landing, she makes her way to him with some manner of haste.

"Podrick! Podrick, it's me!" If Podrick were here, perhaps Lord Tyrion had found his way here as well? So far as husbands go, she prefers Tyrion over Ramsay.

[theladyofwinterfell]

"So much time has passed. It's...it's almost as if the magic of this place has pulled us from two different years and there's a whole autumn between us."

For one, Bran can walk but Sansa doesn't want to bring that up if this version of her brother is from before that horrific fall. She doesn't want to relive that part of her life and she can imagine he wouldn't either.

"Come, let's find somewhere we can talk. Surely we can find something more comfortable than standing about out here?"

[royalunderachiever]

"Is it anyone's? It's a whole bunch of squabbling about who gets to wear a crown and have a fancy name," Adrian said, shrugging a little. "It does mean you get to go to some pretty sweet parties, though, and that's always a good thing."

Except, of course, when he had the nagging of responsibilities in the back of his head telling him he had better things to do than party his way through life. There was Jill, and Eddie, and Sydney and the rest. They had meaning that this kind of empty life didn't have.

But they weren't here, were they? Adrian was all alone, as he had been before they came along, and he'd ended up alone in spite of his attempts to change. Might as well go back to drinking.
