Welcome to Medietas! Do you have an interest in joining the game? Is there an old muse that you want to dust off? Or, perhaps you're looking for a place to voice test a brand new character and would like to do so in our little island setting among friends? Well, whatever the reason, this is where you can do that!

You all know what to do! 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. Getting Settled: So, now that you've arrived and wandered around the starter home you've been given, it's time to check out the rest of the islands. There's a market on Aerilon that is full of treasures. Or, you can check out Chapter Six bookstore. Perhaps you wander over to the Mean Princess facility on Mulciber. There is so much to see and do!

2. Islands: There is definitely some weirdness going on around the islands from the sidewalks that glow to the mysterious energy that doesn't seem to have any direct source. There are statues that hum softly and seem to grow every so often. And what is with these bridges? Go forth and investigate! Puzzles are FUN!

3. PARTY: Every month or so there's always a celebration somewhere, be it on Mulciber, Imber, Mundus, Eurus, and now Nidus! Eat, drink, dance, talk among the other islanders. It's about making new friends and enjoying yourself, right? Even if you have been stolen away from your home world to a bunch of floating islands.

4. Trouble!: All is quiet and calm when suddenly the warning signals across each of the islands sound. Not long after, or, at least only long enough to get prepared, a large hydra creature crawling out of the lake on Imber. Do what you can to help remove this threat before it gets to any of the other islands!

5. Wild Card: Got something else in mind and want to create your own scenario? Go for it!

With what's apparently a much earlier form, at least-I knew of the first series duel disk, and the cards of that time.

[au_yusei]

Ah I see. So I'm assuming Standard Duels then. That was something that most Commons indulge in when they are unable to afford Synchro Monsters.

[noasark]

[Uh.

He narrows his eyes.] ....Commons? [Standard, as far as he is aware, is referring to duels that do not have bikes involved.] ...I assume the 'next step up' in dueling would be out of the average man's pocket, thought.

[au_yusei]

Commons were the lower rung of society in City, until everything changed thanks to the efforts of some very good people.

[Better people than him, but Jack's shining endorsement of the new King of City, Yuya, was more than enough.]

Some of the Commons were able to build D-Wheels for competing in the Friendship Cup, and progress has worked towards the former Tops, the top of society, aiding the former Commons as well.

[noasark]

[...Well that's extreme. He does nothing more than sigh and adjust his glasses however, shaking his head.] Wonderful, [he mutters sarcastically] so we become even MORE stratified as a society...

...It's good to hear that isn't a permanent matter then.

[au_yusei]

We might not be from the same Dimension however. As I understand it, the world was once one Original Dimension, till a disaster split it into four. Fusion, Synchro, XYZ and Standard Dimensions.

For someone such as I who have been trying to enact change on a small gradual level, it was welcome.

[There was the rub.]

[noasark]

[...............

You broke him. The naga blinks, once. Twice. All four of the snakes on his head are assuredly staring, on that note-]

....They SPLIT into FOUR?

[au_yusei]

As far as I can tell. Four Dimensions, each by specific summoning methods in the game Duel Monsters which is a way of life in our respective Cities: City for Synchro, Heartland for XYZ, Academia for Fusion and Maiami for Standard.

[noasark]

[YOU KNOW WHAT....

He rubs his head. No...no, he's traveled through two different worlds, including one where he lived out his days blending human flesh in a blender for food.

He's not questioning a split into four dimensions.] Which means that was what you meant by 'standard' duels...

...I see Domino never survived then, [he says quietly.]

[au_yusei]

If it helps, I have never heard of "Domino" as a city before. If it was in our past, before the worlds were Four, then I can only imagine that it might have been part of the world before the split.

[Jack shook his head.] Do not worry. It is possible we are from completely separate Dimensions even outside of the former Original Dimension.

[noasark]

Domino was a district of Tokyo, to be fair; it wasn't quite a city on its own so much as a section of it along the coastline.

[And he grimaces.] I would think it doesn't matter anyway, given I died in my original one...

[au_yusei]

City is a fair ways away from Tokyo. It might not be part of it in my Dimension then.

[Mmm what to say about that. He seemed rather frustrated with that.] But you were given a second chance.

[noasark]

Perhaps, [he hums, not particularly caring one way or another anymore. He merely shrugs, and crosses his arms, glancing over the red and gold scales covering them.] ...I was-but not there, and that's something I've come to accept by now.

I can't go back to where I was born; that's impossible.

[au_yusei]

I see. But, the truth of the matter is that you have a second chance. Even if it is not ideal, you have a second chance to do right by it.

[noasark]

Naturally~

...I'm not entirely certain where stopping a Hydra fits in, but hopefully it's in the better half of things...

[au_yusei]

Considering people were running away from it, I'm sure it'll probably be for the best.

[noasark]

If it isn't, we're certainly about to find out~.

...I almost wonder if I resemble its relatives now... [...He didn't think of that.]

[au_yusei]

I will vouch for you. It's the least I can do.

idk where to go from here lmfao but what a ride

[noasark]

I'd appreciate that~ [This is an unexpected, but not unwelcome start to a friendship to say the least.]
