TEST DRIVE # 17

TEST DRIVE # 17



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.



Courtly Cadavers


Several dead bodies have very suddenly returned to life. Not only that, but they seem to be possessed by very courteous and polite spirits. So there are reports of half-rotten beings bowing down to young ladies and kissing their hands or holding open doors for other passersby. It's really nice, sure, but also really disturbing.

Dark Deeds


In the middle of the night, there is a spirit that keeps turning off all of the street lamps. Fortunately, there aren't many cars on the roads at this time. Unfortunately, the spirit is also putting out all of the cars' headlights as well. And no cell phone lights or flashlights work during that time either and it's starting to cause a lot of accidents.

Endless Eight


There are eight blocks in downtown Tokyo that have taken to repeating endlessly. As you reach the end of the eight block, you find yourself stepping onto the first block again. No amount of turning or redirecting yourself will allow you to leave the eight blocks - until you stop by a cafe with a couple of bunny girls out front and make a purchase, that is.

Further Forward


Many in Tokyo want nothing more than to be on the cutting edge of technology! And there are some wealthy people who want to be even further ahead than everyone else. That's why they've sent out a general call for new types of technology to be brought to them. And if what you bring is impressive enough, you might get yourself a nice reward~

Giant Goats


Several farms on the outskirts of the city have reported a very sudden and tremendous growth in their goats. That's right, there are two-story tall goats hanging out with the other farm animals. Other than being very large, they seem mostly the same. But since goats will eat anything, well... Let's just say a couple of farmers are going to need new barns soon.

[If anything, Mabel was more impressed that there were giant goats everywhere! In fact, if it weren't for Makoto, she would have gone up to one and see if they wanted a hug!

But alas, she just couldn't.

...Or at least not yet]


Oh, oh! How about a giant bed of flowers! You think he'll eat that?

[In fairness, Mabel probably could have gotten away with running up and giving them a hug even with Makoto right there. It wasn't like hugging a goat was wrong. It was just strange, and not something the reserved teenager would do.

Still, Mabel probably shouldn't, at least not until the animals were safely distracted. It wouldn't do to have the girl made into a snack.

Smiling good-naturedly despite herself, she nods]


He might. Goats eat just about anything. Do you know of one around here?

No but that's okay, we can just make one!

[She said before spreading her arms wide open to the fields all around them! With a proud smile on her face, one could tell that she was plotting something!]

I'm sure we're going to find a bunch of wild flowers here anyway so we're bound to get a pile in no time at all!

[Even though there might be a few giant goats around who might try to eat them but oh well]

Mabel...

[Makoto, a little cautiously, eyes the goats and the little girl. they're positively enormous. And really, wildflowers probably aren't the best for them. So, in a placating sort of way, she goes on.]

What about hay? I saw some fields full of bales of it, and that's probably safer for their stomachs, don't you think?

Probably but it just seems kind of boring! Maybe we should do something to jazz it up a little and make it prettier!

[That and if they were going to get some hay, might as well go all out right? Either way, the girl placed her hands around her eyes and started to look for some hay!]
