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 studies the Jawa like creature. with a hunter's eye. He senses no darkness from it, so he answers it. "Heaven isn't here...it's a place in the afterlife where good souls go after they die," he explains as best he can. "I thought for a second this place was it, but now I see I'm wrong."

"Oh. I'm glad it's not then, because I wouldn't like to be dead." They fold up the map and their eyes change colour, glowing a warm, happy yellow. It's hard to emote with so few facial features but Sam would be able to tell that this is how they smile.

"My name's Lullaby. What's yours? And how did you get so big?" They were a little awed by his height, given that they were at least foot and a half shorter than him. Their youthful voice also had something to do with it though.

"I'm Sam," the tall human replies with a gentle chuckle, 'as for how I got so tall. It's a human thing. I just ate a lot of good food when I was a kid and I sprouted up like a tree. Can I ask you a question now?"

"Sam!" They repeated, careful to mimic the way Sam had spoken. Meaning they used his accent for his name. They didn't want to say it wrong and end up upsetting him. "And okay! What's the question?" They hoped they could answer, but they were a little lost about this place too.

"Where do you come from," Sam asks, "I've met some different type of creatures, but nothing like you before. And I'm curious."

Lullaby paused and gave it a little thought. That was a surprisingly big question when they thought about it! Especially since Sam mentioned not seeing a person like them before. They fidgeted on the spot, trying to come up with a good answer.

"Well, I was born in Hypna's Grove. But you want to know what I am and I don't- I don't know if I'm allowed to say. My mother was like me but she was locked up because people thought she was scary, and Hypna told me that if the wrong people see me and find out what I am, then they'll lock me up too."

But they liked Sam and did want to tell him! They looked up at him again, this time concentrating. As if trying to see something in him.

Sam knelt so that he could better look the creature in the eye. "I hunt things that want to hurt people, but I know there are lots of creatures like you who don't and I don't hunt those. I'm not gonna lock you up if you tell me okay. But it's up to you, you can tell me or not tell me I'm not gonna be mad either way."

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.

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."

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!"

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."

"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."

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."
