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!

Sneaky Snakes
There are a number of snakes that have become possessed by a bunch of very sneaky ayakashi. They are slithering around, silently, snaring unsuspecting passersby into their trap - their trap to steal money. That's right, these snakes are busy snatching bills and coins from whoever they can. Try to put a stop to their thieving ways, or perhaps get thieved by them yourself.
Many of the customers of a certain restaurant are complaining of the fact that their stomachs hurt after eating there. It could just be food poisoning, but many of these people are winding up in critical condition after a couple of days. It's time to figure out what the heck this cook is actually putting in the food.
A family run business has been selling underwear for generations, but the underwear they sell is super boring and bland. Nobody wants to buy from them when cooler underwear is just around the corner. They've asked you to help them bring customers back in - by making their boring underwear seem as cool and hip as possible! How you do that is up to you.
There are so many ayakashi making their way through the air that at sunset the sky is turning an absolutely gorgeous shade of purple. Near Shore residents are reacting to this in varying ways. Many are delighted by the beautiful sky, but just as many are terrified that it's a sign of the end of times. Try to take down some ayakashi to make the sky less purple. Or just sit back and watch the beauty.
Anyways, there's this college boy who won't stop playing his acoustic guitar. He's from the US and is trying to pick up Japanese chicks. By now he should've somehow realized that they're totally not interested in him. But the song just keeps getting louder and louder and all that the people near the campus can hope is that today is gonna be the day that he stops playing. Maybe you're gonna be the one that saves them.

And for the other people too. But he wasn't going to admit that flat out. So that's why he's thumbing through the menu and wondering if there was anything suspicious looking on it. His thoughts were cut off whenever he heard an abrasive voice...]
Hah? Hold on a sec, Miss Pink. I'm still decidin' here.
[Granted, Seiya needed manners giving how he's slouching back in his chair like some sort of delinquent with his legs crossed. He didn't own the place, but he's leaving the impression that he did.]
no subject
Then again, she is never outright hostile, always hiding behind a veneer of backhanded insults and a deadpan stoicism. ]
No, please, take your time. If you require assistance reading the menu I can attempt to help you sound out the words to make it easier? Or I could retrieve a menu with more pictures, if you would prefer.
[ She bows her head as if she were being polite, a good maid even, but her words are anything but. ]
no subject
[Correction: He's about 98% percent idiot. And he had to wonder how she even ended up on the working staff. Seiya's eyes stop at something on the menu. He wasn't seeking anything horribly extravagant, but just something to fill him up for lunch.]
Um... I'll just have some curry and cold water. Something simple. [Oh yeah...] Do you do any of the cooking or are you just servin' around here?
[This girl couldn't be the culprit behind all of those stomachaches, couldn't she? She didn't look like an ayakashi as far as he was concerned... But then again, looks could be very deceiving.]
no subject
[ She continues to bow, as if she were actually seeking penance, and not just being even more of a rude shit. Eventually she stands back up straight.. with her hands on her hips, looking down at him for asking that question. ]
'Tch.
[ Is how she answers first, before deciding to change tactics, and nodding, pretending as if she hadn't just looked down on him. ]
I am offering my services as a maid who can both cook and serve. I am certain my skills will be more than enough.
no subject
[Seiya who wore his emotions on his sleeves couldn't hold back that remark and points at her. Not to mention, there was no way that he could overlook something like that!]
Hold on... Are you putting weird things in the food?! There's been cases about people getting sick here! You ain't secretly an ayakashi moonlighting as a maid, aren't you?
[Easier to just be direct with the issue instead of simply dance around the elephant in the room, he felt.]
1/2
[ Is she smiling? ]
no subject
I am a proper maid, this is my fulltime occupation. Aside from being a shinki, of course. I would never put anything weird into the food I serve, I would have no right to continue to claim my position as the number one maid in Japan if I did.
