TEST DRIVE # 13



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!

To get you started, here are some ideas for thread-starters! Feel free to come up with your own ideas if these don't strike your fancy, though.



Illegal Irritations


Nothing supernatural about this one, there are just some guys sell illegal drugs and weaponry in some of the back alleys of Tokyo. They might solicit you to try and get your business or you might just happen upon them targeting someone else. Either way, are you really okay with letting this go on in your city?

Jumping Jellyfish


For some strange reason, a bunch of jellyfish have taken to literally jumping out of the ocean and all over the beaches. They seem to be scared of something in the water, but be that as it may, they're scaring away all the beach tourism! Quick, figure out how to get them back in the water!

Kooky Kickoff


A brand new store is opening up and, as part of their grand opening, they want people to perform for their potential customers! And they're just dragging people off of the streets and shoving them into ridiculous, off-brand character costumes to do it. Whether you're part of the show or watching others make fools of themselves, it promises to be a good time.

Lovely Lingerie


There's a great, new brand of lingerie being sold in Akihabara that is all the rage right now. They're stylish and sexy and come in all shapes, sizes, and colors! There's even some that are themed after popular shows. But people who are buying them keep winding up missing. Coincidence?

Manic Molting


So many birds are molting on the spot for no reason, shedding feathers all over the streets, on peoples' cars, and in any space they can get into. It's really not their fault, but darn if it's not making things difficult to do with all these feathers around! Either help clean up or figure out how to stop the mass molting!



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!

[With a clicking of his tongue and a rather curt jab into his suit's inner pocket, William pulled out a simple designed handkerchief and whistled at one of the more distressed pigeons. After a couple more attempts to coach the bird into trusting him, William carefully scratched at the top of the bird's head. ]

There, There... It's just a stage. Once you are done, you are done for a while.

[And from the corner of his eyes, the Grim Reaper turned God of Time finally took notice of an intruder and frowned.]

Are you just going to stand there and gawk or are you going to make yourself useful and pick up a few of these feathers? They can be turned into quills if they are healthy enough.

[ Oh hey, it's that stuffy guy he stares a flat with. Yes, he is just going to stand there and gawk, thank you very much. ]

Why are you talking to the birds?

[ Whatever Pity that William has goes to that poor bloke. Nobody deserves having to deal with that amount of stupidity.]

Perhaps it is because they make far better conversationalist then some hooligan? At least they prove to make themselves useful, and looking at your so called dress attire I doubt you can say the same.

What does my outfit have to do with anything?!

[ And here he thought he was being silent in his approach. But then maybe it was this strange link between master and shinki that alerted the reaper of his presence. Either way, he's adjusting his gloves as he approaches.

There he goes. Playing with birds. Maybe his form was ironic in that case.

But he does pick up a feather or two as he approaches, turning it in his hand once. ]


Should I be jealous you've chosen to spend your time with these other birds while I was about, my lord?
