Whether you're trying to figure out how your character would fare in this setting, trying to get some samples together, or just dipping your toes in the water, you've come to the right place! The Test Drive is here to make your life easy by letting you see what the game is like without actually joining it first. So here is how it works:
1: Post a starter with your character, including whether they are a god or shinki in the subject line.
2: Act like your character is established enough in the setting to allow your thread to go places.
3: Take on any god/shinki of your choosing, as long as they're not already in the game!
4: Comment around to the other people on the meme.
5: Have lots of fun!

Junky Jokes
There is a small spirit girl who is determined to hear some funny jokes before she passes on to the next life. Your job is to come up with some horribly bad, wonderfully funny jokes to make her laugh. Be warned, though, she's got a very serious face that's hard to crack.
The swords of the knights at a local museum's exhibit have gone missing. They are praying for them to be returned because these swords are worth so much and such a great part of history. Hopefully you'll be able to find them, because otherwise those prayers are going to someone else.
There's been a streak of heat lightning going on. It's so intense that sometimes the lightning will light up the night sky as if it were day and there have been numerous power outages in the area. Go help out the people who are without power and make sure that everyone can still live as normally as possible!
Who doesn't need more money? A little convenience store needs help since all of their employees have fallen ill at the same time. They're offering double wages to anyone who will work for them. Unfortunately, the store is a hot spot for misfortune and ghouls of various kinds. Have fun!
Surprise! A very American man is shoving neon bright candy and cakes at everyone who will stop for even a moment, and he easily notices all Far Shore residents as well. Which means every time you pass him, you'll be getting more and more of this hideously colored food. Enjoy~

If you're uncertain about anything, feel free to check out the Premise, Rules, and FAQ posts. And don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have on the FAQ!
When and if you're ready to join the game, check out the Taken Characters before throwing in a Reserve and starting on your Application
Have fun!
yooo glad someone's getting some use out of those icons
Yeah, I think I could get behind that.
[Vella doesn't seem particularly muscled, but she's clearly scrappy. That's good. Kainé can work with scrappy.]
Your god won't mind splitting the glory -- [She says it with as much sarcasm as she can manage.] -- on this one, will they? I mean, I don't really give a shit, but you know how they can be.
oh man THANKS FOR MAKING THEM
As long as we find the swords, it probably doesn't matter either way. Right?
[Gods schmods, she just wants to help and fight. Not necessarily in that order.]
o/
Find them and give them back. That part seems to be important.
Kainé, by the way. And I'm pretty sure that where I was from, swords were used. This place is really...strange.
[how do modern world]
no subject
Name's Vella. I don't... think I've had a sword before. [But who really knows with magic amnesia]
no subject
I'm sure as hell not gonna say anything if you want to take a stab at using 'em. [Pun intended, even though she'd deny it.] Feel free to run the thief through, for all I care. But the punching is more...therapeutic.
no subject
I guess if it's important to the museum, we really shouldn't.
...but the thief doesn't have to know that. [Wink wink nudge nudge]
no subject
Here I was thinking I'd have to terrorize the bastard all by myself. Good to have someone around that doesn't have rocks for fucking brains for once.
[She gestures for Vella to follow her, heels clicking against the pavement.]
It sounds like they weren't that worried about the thief using 'em. If they're being sold, I guess we should take a look at some street merchants.
no subject
Oh yeah, stuff from museums are pretty valuable. [Vella assumed they'd steal it to look cool, but that makes sense too.]
Know anyone who'd buy stolen goods?
no subject
What kind of company do you think I hang out with?
[Her tone is dry, but there's a hint of a teasing glimmer in her eye.]
I don't think any of the indoor businesses would. They seem to stick to the rules. We're better off checking out the places with rejects, degenerates... Or maybe some rich asshole with a private mansion.
no subject
People that know how to find bad guys. [Which could be good or bad.]
We should threaten the rich guy, just in case. [Fuck up people in power, do it do it.]
no subject
[...encouraging! There's something vaguely warm about her tone, really. Really. She really likes scrappy, spunky Vella.]
What the hell, why not? Chances are he's done at least three wrong things in the past twelve hours even if he's not our thief.
no subject
I like the way you think.
no subject
[fuck em up fuck em up]
Gee, thanks. You're not so bad, either. Kind of surprised.
no subject
[Fight the power]
I do that, but I'll take it. [Why not live a little and let something stroke her ego.]
