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!

Daring Drinks
A couple of local bars are going out of their way to make new and interesting drinks for their customers to try, in a long-standing war between the two bars. Of course, they're going a little off the rails, so there are some very interesting - and somewhat scary - combinations popping out of the woodworks. And they want everyone passing by to try them.
An odd ayakashi is causing some of the eels at the local aquarium to become literally electric, causing the eels to shock the other inhabitants in their tanks. This is causing a pretty big uproar and if it isn't fixed soon, someone could die or the aquarium might even just shut down entirely.
Large frogs are popping up all over the place and following people around. They don't seem malicious in any way, but they are kind of creepy to look at, brightly colored, and leave trails of slippery goo wherever they stand. Oh, and they like to jump at people and knock them over, just for fun.
A local home for older men is having a problem with a number of their inhabitants where they literally cannot stop farting and belching. It turns out this is the work of an ayakashi that just thinks farts and burps are funny and knows it's easier to get those sorts of things out of old people. Help the poor old guys out, would you?
Many known otaku in the area are dealing with a rather terrifying problem - every hentai they watch lately comes into reality very suddenly. Sometimes this means cute, begging girls, sure, but it also means tentacles and aliens and a whole rash of other things too. You'll have to stop the ayakashi that is bringing these 'fantasies' to life in order to save these guys.

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!

Have fun!

...Ah. Fran. That's who it reminds me of. [Somewhere in another universe a certain frog-like child is having a sneezing fit. She tilts her head the other way and the frog croaks again. at least it's happy??
Not that Hakkai would know who that was. She turns and looks at him then] Has anyone successfully gotten rid of theirs'? [The frog gets ready to leap at Chrome again, but she simply steps to the side and it goes flying by, tumbling gracelessly as it hits the ground.
Chrome doesn't even blink, flinch, or lose eye contact, her expression unchanged. Just a polite expectation of an answer.]

Ah, you're a god?
I'm afraid I haven't become the target of one of them yet. You could always kill it.

[Here she bows, nice and polite.] My name is Chrome Dokuro. You may know some of my... [Com...rades?? How does one describe them. She seems to struggle a moment, not wanting to really say 'friends' either.] Some of the people from my world that have been here before me. I apologize. [BECAUSE HONESTLY WHAT ELSE CAN SHE SAY ABOUT THAT. she didn't even name them and yet...
As chrome straightens she hesitates, nodding slightly. Hakkai does have a good point--she certainly could, but--] But...If it died, wouldn't that be a little sad...? It's not doing any malicious harm. [Chrome shifts her bags a little in her arms and watches the frog a little more as it gives little small hops around the sidewalk, just sort of hanging out]
no subject
And how spectral is it, really? The mortals don't seem concerned.]
It's not, I suppose, but it can't live in a place like this.
[He raises his eyebrows at her, and inclines his head.] Please, don't bow! I'm Cho Hakkai, and I'm a shinki.
You could always take it home, I suppose.
no subject
Pleased to meet you, Hakkai-san. [She completely ignores his comment about bowing, continuing to be very polite. He's an Adult, first of all, shinki or not.] You've been here long? [He did mention recognizing signs after 'a little while,' so she assumes so.]
no subject
[... Well, he tried, he supposes, despite the fact that she's still being much too polite with him. He beams cheerfully at her.]
It's been a few months, yes.
