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!

"Sounds delightful," he gestures for Gabriel to lead the way. "Jo? As in the boys' friend, Jo?"

[thisismyship]

Hera looks at the man and gives him a sad little smile. "I suppose so," she says, "now I know how my husband and his apprentice feel when they say they may be the last of their kind."

[knighterrantofthedragon]

Alric smiled a touch more sympathetically at that response, nodding in understanding.

"A reasonable and understandable hope, surely, Miss, and a sentiment I certainly share. I'm afraid I can't promise many answers, but those I do have, I assure you I'll share gladly."

He paused a moment to let that sit and change tack slightly.

"Alric of House Caelegart."

Re: Anna Milton / Supernatural / New Arrival

[tobeclosetohim]

Jo's not positive she could break down exactly why she's on the docks today. The last month hasn't been amazing, and it hasn't been terrible. It's just new, and as much as that fucking sucks, and it fucking sucks a lot, especially given all it's taken from her, again, she's good at surviving. Too good, as Rachel pointed out several times during....that. So good at she only breaks from it, when she breaks entirely.

But there's going to be a lot more lost people again, and somehow, she found herself at the far edge of the docks, watching them mill out of those still familiar boats, with their still familiar deck crews, out into the hands of the still familiar crew to give them maps, houses, and communication devices. Familiar, familiar, familiar, and then a familiar flash of red hair.

Or maybe. Maybe it's not the hair. Fuck knows.

It could be the height. The posture. Hold of her shoulders. The tilt of her head. The shift of her eyes.

"Anna?" The name stumbles out of her mouth with a familiarity that guts her. A fist landing in her gut, or a shotgun blast. Not a month old and still the same, but the better part of more than half a decade old and still the same. And before she knows it Jo's not leaning on a dock post anymore. She's shoving through people, without apologies, all but running, looking for that face, and trying to tell herself, but she can't listen.

[pleinelune]

"Not that long ago." She confirmed somewhat vaguely as they started walking. Her glide was graceful, almost eerily so, as she covered the ground like she was walking on air. Tucking some hair back from her face, she glanced sideways at the cloud while mentally doing the calculations about how long it would take the rain to reach them.

"How long have you been here?" She asked curiously as she focused on him again. The wind seemed to catch his breeze and send it wrapping around her as she drew it again. She would never have any problem finding him now again, if she wished.

[notexactlyalphaoftheyear]

[Derek snorts a little, a canine snuffle that still manages to sound huffy and vaguely disdainful before he sniffs at her hand--a purely instinctive action in this form--before cordially bumping her palm with his snout to acknowledge that he's...well, himself.]

[otherqualities]

[Elizabeth lets out a soft exhale of breath in wonder as the wolf noses her hand.] Remarkable. Well, it certainly makes more sense now as to why you'd be without clothes. I imagine your transfiguration would be a great deal less agreeable if you tried to navigate them while having four legs instead of two.

[It somewhat mollifies the situation in her mind, though seriously, she's seen more male naked bodyparts here in the last few days than she's seen in the whole of her life.]

Though communicating might be a touch more difficult. And I don't believe I have your name. We'll simply settle for Mr. Wolf for now, I should think. Where you attempting to make your way back to civilization? Or were you doing something...wolfish,in nature?

[lotsoflaughs]

"Yup. The very same," Gabriel says, walking in the right direction. "She was less than impressed about my 'heard you were dead' comment but since I immediately moved on to something else, there wasn't much for her to complain about. She apparently gets that a lot. Along with being crushed in hugs by whichever one of the boys wound up dropped in whatever world she ends up in."

[lotsoflaughs]

"Want to fill in some context with that?" he asks, eyebrow raised as he leans against the railing as well although turned so his backside was what his weight was resting on.

[justice_4all]

"I'm guessing that either you're coming from another world than StarCity before getting here, or your universe is even stranger than mine..." Oliver mused with a smile. His good friend was part cyborg, another could run super fast and a third one could breath under water. That was not even counting Mr. Boy Scout himself. Yeah, he could get on board with other him in parallel universes as well as completely other worlds.

Oliver tilted his head at that, his tone teasing: "Should I expect a punch if I ever introduce myself to her?" What? It was a fair question. Before Lois, he didn't exactly had the best record with ladies.

But his smile faltered at the mention of siblings: "No, I'm an only child. My parents died in a place crash before they could give me a sister or a brother. Not that I wouldn't have minded sharing the burden of being a Queen, to be honest."

He gave Ollie a long look, wondering if their life, more than just their physical appearances, were different as well. There was so many questions on his mind, though not just about their lives, but also about their friends, but for now, Oliver simply smiled at his other self.

[radishearring]

"I was given the quick and dirty version to borrow the expression but any insight will be useful." Luna was able to smile now. "And I'm Luna Lovegood."

[radishearring]

Luna nodded,"As I suspected but can't lose hope." she mused with a tiny smile. "But I am hopeful about other magicals even if not from the Wizarding world."

[lotsoflaughs]

"Yeah, there's a few magic users around," he confirms. "None of them feel like you, so it looks like you've got the market cornered on your kind."

A lot better sounding than some version of 'one is the loneliest number'.

[justice_4all]

Oh, the joke was intentional, and that she caught on it made Oliver chuckle. He gave her his best grin:

"Well, you have beauty too, but who's counting, hm?" Why yes, he was flirting. Because it was still a coping mechanism for Oliver to do so, even after all this time on Atia.

"I'm Oliver, by the way," he said, offering the brunette his hand.

"I come from StarCity, if you've ever heard of this city before." He had long learned on Atia that his 'Earth' was not always the same Earth for other people.

Marion Scotts | OC | Options 1 or 3

[didnotwant]

1)

Marion wakes up with a start. Why is she seeing birds flying overhead? She blinks in confusion then slowly sits up. At first she is just dazed because the last thing she recalls is climbing into her car, ready to head on to the next drop off. Lately people have been needing her more and more lately.

Consulting with other werewolves has been taking up much of her time. Marion turns around a few times feeling confused then just growls under her breath.

"Where the fuck is my car." This is a giant pile of bullshit.

3)

And now that she knows what is going on Marion just has to poke around. The werewolf has shifted to her wolf form and is enjoying the forests of Mundus. She has been running for hours before she comes back to where she had left her things.

Sensing that someone might be out here as well she hides as she shifts back and stealthily gets her clothing back on. It takes her a few minutes but she is now trying to very casually appear as if nothing is up. Nope. Normal human woman right here.

Totally normal.

[themerlin]

Well, totally normal, or not, she was going to find a tiger padding out of the jungle, friendly like, and curling up on the ground, peering at her. He was a fully grown jungle tier, and yawned, then licked a paw as he stretched. Merlin had been out bathing in a large bath, and then decided to wander this way.

And rather was glad he had, for his nose was telling him differently from his eyes. How odd.

[didnotwant]

Marion doesn't really react the way a normal human would. Most people who see a tiger come out of the woods would get frightened or jump a bit not Marion though. Some part of her knows that fear would be normal but the tiger doesn't really strike her as a threat to her person.

It is weird to see it out here. She lets out a small chuckle. "Well I don't think you're the weirdest thing I've seen today."

[ancientinthoughts]

continued here!

[knighterrantofthedragon]

Alric raised his eyebrows at her choice of words--either puzzled at the expression, or merely surprised that she'd used it--but smiled courteously nonetheless, taking it quite in stride.

"A pleasure, I'm sure, Miss Lovegood. I imagine you've been told much the same as I have; however, if you've questions, I'll do what I can to answer them, of course. I gather, from what I've heard, that these... islands, so to speak, have been in this condition for quite some time. Since long before living memory, certainly, perhaps before surviving records. I can only conjecture as to why we are here, but if we can be brought here, one must assume we could--in principle--be returned, as well, but we will surely need to learn more about this place, first."

[badpuns]

"It's starting to sound like this is the place to go for those who are supposed to be dead," Balthazar follows along beside Gabriel. "It sounds like Jo is particularly well traveled, though. Is there anyone else we know here?"

[themerlin]

The Tiger sidled closer, and peered up at her. "Well, I should hope not. Tigers are hardly that rare, now, are they?"

The voice is all growls and low purring sounds, but intelligible. Merlin settled close to her again. "You are a curious person, are you not?"

[didnotwant]

That gets a slight quirk of her mouth. Talking tigers, really? What next? She really shouldn't tempt fate like that.

"I tend to be, yes." It certainly makes her job easier. Seeking out and sharing what knowledge she can find. Mostly on things that are awful but that isn't always the case.

[themerlin]

"Good. It is the best way to be." The Tiger slinked closer, then rose up on it's hindlegs and went to place its paws on her shoulders. "Such is the best way to learn things, madame."

Merlin winked. "Or so think I."

[didnotwant]

And this is where the fact she isn't really as human as she looks. Even if Merlin is being careful a tiger still weighs a great deal and Marion doesn't change her stance all that much. She does have to keep her expression from going funny for other reasons.

"Not that I'm complaining but why are you in my space like this?"

[lotsoflaughs]

The 'supposed to be dead' comment gets a sharp look at Balthazar as Gabriel stops dead. "What happened?"

If little brother was hoping to avoid this conversation, he picked the wrong words to do so.
