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!

Sam shook his head. "No I haven't heard of her. I mean I've done a lot of reading, but it's hard to keep up with every myth ever written. Some nights my head would spin as I tried to find the information I was actually looking for."

[vaders_only_son]

Luke smiles slightly. "And what do you bring to the fight...if you don't mind my asking," he says easily sizing up the young man with a wise glance.

[thegrimmismine]

Sean listens with a calm, open expression on his face. If he was being honest with himself he was enthralled with Louise's story. It's like he's hearing about a part of himself that he's forgotten. Something he'd been trying to find when the Black Claw had offered him that poster of his face. He can't help the laugh that escapes when he hears about running into her. "I hope you didn't think badly of me when I ran into you?"

[allergictonuts]

[Felicity held up the device she'd been given and pulled the map out of her coat pocket.]

I didn't stick around for the island part. [It was a sheepish confession.] The device and map upset me and I was looking for a face, anyone.

[A breath.] Where's your house?

[guessihavelostcount]

Truthfully, she had hoped the same thing. She had even convinced herself that it might actually happen, that she might get to go with him to his world or that he could come with her to hers, but it hadn't happened. It had felt like losing herself when she had lost him but she learned to live too.

"I know he did." She murmured softly, unable to deny the pang she felt. "I loved him too."

Swallowing thickly, she pushes down the emotions as she looks up at Obi-Wan and smiles again. This part is easier because it's always good to be reunited with people. "I'm glad to see you too. You have no idea how glad."

[aster_planetes]

Roshanak has never learned how to handle compliments to her appearance - not like this, not honest and about all of her, not just her humanoid-face, but Saphira sounds so sincere and so confused, it makes her smile.

A little awkwardly, but she's touched, too.

"I thank you. Um, as to why, there are advantages. It... It calls less attention to one. Sometimes, that is polite. Others, it's safer." Not everywhere is understanding to her kind. And there are slavers...

"And when in cities, it can be far, far easier to move around," Roshanak moves on quickly. "Stairs, for one thing. And little narrow streets. And not hitting your head on signs, or people's laundry."

She keeps to her own form when she can, but she's not blind to how awkward it can be. Certainly not after being repeatedly smacked in the face by drying sheets.

"I...I have not, I am sorry. There are so many people about." She doesn't add that she doesn't know what 'elvish' might mean: they are far, far to the north of her. "But that doesn't mean he isn't here."

He's probably not, in all honesty. But stranger things have happened - far, far stranger. And more to the point, for Saphira's own dignity and safety, she'd prefer to get her away from the docks and all of these people before she falls apart.

Roshanak blinks then, and inclines her head slightly in respect. Centaurs are mighty warriors, powerful and wise (when they choose), but she's well aware that compared to a dragon, she's very much outclassed.

"It's an honour to meet you, Saphira."

Re: Malcolm Renard l OUAT OC l Beach

[trickshaveaprice]

Malcolm tilts his head as if studying the younger looking man. "How old are you then," he asks curious, "because you are pretty much on the nose when it comes to understanding what my life is like."

[dr_wells]

Harrison hugs her tighter unsure of what to say. But the words slip out anyway almost like his heart knows before his brain does. "I'm sorry. Jesse I'm sorry."

[reallygreathair]

She was right. Everything that happened on Mars and also that Zygon business (which he had some vague recollection of) were weighing on him.

"Right now, I'm hampered by the lack of transport to where I was originally heading."

Although, in truth, he was in no hurry to arrive at the Ood-sphere.

[reallygreathair]

That we do, yeah.

[becauseichooseto]

Yes, so I expect to be picking debris out of my hair by the end of the week.

[iron_beneath_beauty]

"It simply isn't like Ned. He never had a woman or was able to muster the courage to take a woman in such a way. It was Brandon that left a string of bastards." She didn't want to doubt Jon. There was evidence he was a Stark. His features resembled hers, he had the same nose and chin as her father. There was a quality of the North about him.

Yet, Ned being the father...it was contrary to everything she knew about her brother.

"He must not have spoken of her because of regret or his conscience. Ned is taciturn, but when he feels guilty, it takes a new level. It's strange, if I didn't know him so well, I would think that Robert Baratheon somehow influenced his actions."

She frowned, not wanting to give offense to her nephew. He was a Stark. While she might not approve of what her brother had done, she would support her family. "Jon. It is a good name, one that shows he regarded you well enough to name you for a man he greatly loves and admires. That's no light thing."

Re: Rose Tyler | Doctor Who

[seconddoctor_cia]

The Doctor folded his hands and sighed.

"Actually, this isn't worn where I come from. My lot are a bit more...stuffy shall we say. They're more into robes and ridiculous head-wear. All pomp and no substance."

The thought made him chuckle.

[seconddoctor_cia]

The alternative wasn't much better for the Doctor.

"I think whoever brought us all here must have some purpose for doing so. All these people, though, I can't really fathom what it could all be for. I think it's likely that almost everyone here is from a different time and place."

[reallygreathair]

Oh? What makes you say that?

Jo Harvelle l Supernatural/CRAU +3 l New Arrival

[tobeclosetohim]

There's a girl not far to his right, who appears to have appeared only a few seconds behind him. Jo's there, map in hand, one pair of tight, worn jeans, boots, and the thinnest of clinging, long sleeve shirts. Along with one very worn, but sturdy, backpack hanging over one of her shoulders as she studies everything suddenly in front of her even while addressing him.

"Please tell me you didn't actually just say that."

Re: Jo Harvelle l Supernatural/CRAU +3 l New Arrival

[notarambler]

Sam did a double take and he spun around "Jo," he said in shock. His voice is shaking a little bit as if he can't believe what he's seeing. He moves forward and attempts to hug her wanting to know she is real. He needs to know right now.

Re: Jo Harvelle l Supernatural/CRAU +3 l New Arrival

[tobeclosetohim]

"Woah!" That's the sound of surprise, and dude, personal space at least more than it's anything like actually physically foisting off the attentions of a Winchester the size of a mountain, who will never stop being a good foot taller than her. She tells herself just for a second (a second she'll condemn herself for later) that maybe it's surprise and relief on his part that she's here, too. That neither of them were alone in this new douchery of the universe.

Except she's knows him better than that. Knows his face better than that.

And it's not relief, and it drags up a swell of rage in her. Fucking multiverse.

"Yeah-" Jo says a little off keel, without stopping him. Sam Winchester, mountain of a man, with that expression she knows too well. Because she's alive. And Sam Winchester is hugging her. Like. That. Again. Not asking her if she's been here longer, or got a plan, and what she's got is just saying it again. Jo raised a hand to briefly pat his shoulder. "Yeah. It's me."

[justice_4all]

Oliver was surprised when the other man seemed to know about his home city, but when the taciturn man offered his name, the blond couldn't help but chuckle slightly.

"You're Oliver Queen? Of course, you're Oliver Queen," said the blond, clearly amused by this as he shook the other man's hand. The next words were surprising as well:

"Lois is here? And we have a sister? I mean, you do."

It was impossible for Oliver not to laugh. This was insane. Finally, his questions had been answered. There was an alternate universe where he existed too, and in this one, he had a sister. Damn, this was made his heart pinch a little. Were his parents still alive in this world? He hoped so. Maybe in this universe, they never died, and he never crashed his boat on that island. Maybe in this universe, things were good for him.

Shaking his head as he calmed down, he waved his hand in front of him: "I'm sorry. This is just...too much, really. My name is Oliver Queen, and before you said something, no I'm not lying and yes it's quite possible that there's two of us in alternate universes."

[starktomboy]

She never wanted to be put down again, honestly. Monster be damned. Other people be damned. She'd missed him so much she thought she might cry. She truly wanted to, knowing that she no longer had Needle by her side. She felt ashamed by the memory. She didn't want to tell him the truth of it and it was best that his questions were focused on bigger things right now. Hopefully Needle wouldn't come up.

"I don't know - probably the same as everyone else?" Fighting off that monster that looked about as fierce as Balerion the Black Dread. "What about you?"

Leaving the wall was treason, not that he could help this any more than she could. Though she felt no guilt for killing the Night's Watch deserter she'd found whose boots she'd stolen. He had broken the law and that meant he had to be put to the sword.

Arya Stark | A Song of Ice and Fire | 3

[starktomboy]

Arya had always loved wilderness. She remembered it like it was yesterday - that first time on the King's Road with Sansa and their father and King Robert, the Queen, and their guards. She'd wanted to ride outside the carriage to see everything there was to see, much to Sansa's disgust. Now she could go wherever she wanted and see whatever she wanted to see. It was unfortunate that that childish wonder had been lost years before.

Wandering through the forest felt nothing like the greenery that surrounded Winterfell, nor Riverrun. She almost missed having company to entertain herself on her exploration, but today belonged to her alone. Not caring to be told how unladylike she was, Arya climbs. The tree she'd found was covered in green leaves and dark bark. Perhaps she might find a bird's nest? She wasn't sure what she'd find but the sound of someone else approaching stills her. Grabbing up the nearest object growing from the branches - an acorn - she hurls it in the intruder's direction, hoping to hit them in the head to scare them off.

[wontforgetyou]

"All of them?"

It was like those war games all over again. At least when it came to the amount of people that had seemed to have brought in, and Jamie wound up looking around rather thoughtfully, mouth opening just enough so that his tongue could tip out to moisten his lips. A second or so later, however, and his hand reached out to try and grab the Doctor's arm with perhaps a bit more enthusiasm than was strictly necessary.

"Hey, Doctor - maybe they're trying to raise an army! You know, like those aliens in that planet we just'd been to."

Just because everything looked peaceful right now didn't mean that it wasn't possible. He'd seen that sort of thing before, after all, but...he dropped his hand, a faint frown crossing his features instead.

"What would they need an army for, though?"

[pleinelune]

"Breathe." Came the gentle urging from the shadows beside him. At least it seemed to be nothing but shadows at first till a small shifting of movement revealed a slender, dark haired woman sitting only a few feet away from him. Her knees were drawn up too, slightly parted, and she had her arms draped over the top of them as she watched him. She looked relaxed but there was a low hum of tension radiating underneath the surface. She was unsure of her new situation too but the panic she was sensing nearby was a good distraction.

"In through your nose and then out through your mouth slowly." She figured that he probably knew exactly how to breathe in that moment but sometimes even just a reminder would help. That or he would be too annoyed with her to focus on what was freaking him out in that moment. Either way.

She could understand it though as she had suffered a moment of panic too when she first regained consciousness. At first she thought that maybe she had been captured, knocked out somehow and then locked up. There was no one taunting or threatening her though. Just other people who seemed to be feeling the same confusion, and sometimes panic, that she was. After that, she focused on sitting back and listening to everything around her. Doing so left her with more questions than answers but that wasn't really a surprise to her. Not at the moment.

Now she was looking at the young man beside her, lighting sniffing at the air as she waited for a response. Unless he chose to ignore her.

[only_hope]

"Has it been that long? I don't think so," Obi-Wan said, thinking about when he'd first left his home and gone to Tatooine and then, later, to the village where he'd trained Galen.

"Perhaps it has been. I lose track, after so many years. It's been a long time since I've had the good fortune to meet another strong in the Force, though, and I feel it in you. You have some talent, then? Were you ever trained?"

[doomed_copper]

She demurs, chuckling softly and her gaze returning to her lap. "Hardly. I spoke to you briefly, and quickly, I realised we were on the same case. I ushered you into my office, and we began work."

Her smile, whilst fleeting, was genuine.
