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!

Thranduil looks taken aback by her offer. He shakes his head and moves away from her, understanding for the first time that this child has been abused.

"May I inquire as to your age, Lady Sansa?"

[theladyofwinterfell]

"Eight and ten, your Grace," Sansa says, giving him a kind smile. "Only just, though. I just had my nameday a few weeks ago."

It seems so strange to be that old now, in truth, when Sansa has felt that old for years now.

[tauraran]

"A babe!" he exclaims, marveling, "Are you truly considered of marriage age so young?" it is too fast. If Legolas had asked to marry at eighteen, Thranduil would have thrown a fit.

"I wish you well in this new year." he frowns sorrowfully. This child couldn't celebrate the day with her mother as she should have done by Arda tradition.

[theladyofwinterfell]

"Thank you, your Grace. I was married the first time at fourteen," Sansa explains. "Which is very young, to be certain, but I had flowered and it is not uncommon for noble girls to marry very young. This second marriage happened at seventeen."

Sansa doesn't think her marriages happened too young but, again, apparently Westerosi standards were different than those in the king's realm.

[tauraran]

Fourteen. That number strikes him even harder and he closes his eyes, barely hiding a wince.

"An Elf is not considered an adult until they reach their first century." and only then would he have considered a match for Legolas, "And we do not marry more than once."

For them, consummating is often the marriage and there is no such thing as cheating on your spouse.

[theladyofwinterfell]

"Unfortunately, I won't live that long," Sansa says. It is not sad, though, because she thinks there might be disadvantages for living for such a long, long time.

"I do hope, someday, that I might marry someone who is kind to me. I hope it is a while off, though. I am sick of being married."

[tauraran]

"The fate of all mortals." though some mortals live considerably longer in Arda, "You deserve no less." his gaze softens and he smiles, "Enjoy your freedom and do not relinquish it for any man."

Marriages should be about equality; not dominance.
