Test Drive; December

Test Drive



Welcome to the test drive for Time Trapped. This is an open forum to test out your characters to see how they would fit into the game and if you might be interested in apping them here. We want you to feel comfortable and, of course, test drive threads can be used as samples on your application to join.

First, a few housekeeping things before we start:

  ∞Apps will be open as of Dec 10th at 12 AM, and will reopen on the first of every month. They will remain open until the 10th of each month before closing.

  ∞Both first and third person prompts are allowed in the test drive. We encourage both. We also encourage making multiple prompt options in your post.

  ∞Finally, you will be allowed to transfer your test drive threads over into the game canon should you apply and be accepted.

  ∞If you have any other questions please feel free to refer to the FAQ or contact the mods directly.

Aside from that, happy test driving.

Prompts



   1. Acclimating to the environment
While Gideon has a part of the area sectioned off for now based on her calculations of where the time anomalies are going to occur the area is still large and confusing. It’s easy for a person to get lost or overwhelmed in this big mish-mosh of a world. Perhaps you are lost, or maybe you are just settling in.


   2. Reach out and touch someone
Gideon has been kind enough to provide you with a way to communicate. Whether that be a device or a simple SIM card. Why not try it out by sending a public message. Of course, you could also be sending it by accident.


   3. Make peace, not war
While LA has become a hodgepodge of different times it has also become a hodgepodge of different areas as well. Exploring the downtown LA brings you to a section of Greenwich Village in New York. Unfortunately what was once a peaceful protest has grown into a fight between Mogul hordes and peace loving hippies who just want to protest. Local enforcement is, of course, trying to sort out this mess but it seems they might need a bit of outside help.


   4. What's this strange building?
The 'Hall of Justice' stands in a sorry state as nature is trying to overtake it. Vines are crawling up the walls and there is Dimetrodon sunbathing in the courtyard, or what's left of it. Inside, any technology seems to have been destroyed and there is no sign of life. Still, it is a ruin left to be explored and the local archaeological society is willing to pay good money for relics from inside. Be warned that there may still be some rather nasty traps active inside and around the hall. If you happen to be a from the DC world you might see a few familiar faces among the broken statues that once adorned this building.


   5. Let’s dance
The Verdant. A rousing nightclub in 'bad neighborhood' of what was once Starling City circa 2013. There seems to be a wide variety of patrons here tonight, anything from Greek Scholars to some Greasers. What a great place to grab something to drink or maybe cause a little trouble.


   6. Dressing in style
Perhaps you arrived in less than ideal clothing. You may have arrived in no clothing at all. It might just be about time to look through some clothing stores and find what is right for you. Of course, it’s never that easy though. There are pickpockets and thieves all over the streets. You may just become their next victim.

   7. Home for the Holidays
Little old London town is high in festivities right now. It's Christmas and the area surrounding Big Ben is snowy, though it's a bit melty due to the climate in LA. Festive decor and foods for sale circa 1885 in england and emotions are cheery and positive. Take a horse and buggy or attend a christmas party.

Just hope the mongols don't show up. Or Amazons.

   8. Wild Card. Go nuts.

"Snagged from Starling City!" comes the voice of Thea Queen. "And well I'm watching hippies get into a fight with can can dancers while picking glass out of my hair."

"First question, do you have the same phone I put the tracker in. Second question, if you don't have it, why don't you have that phone?" Seriously, why would she not have the phone that she put a tracker in?

Harry wasn't the only one being drawn to that particular statue, although the teenager was actively scanning the area around it, carefully cataloguing what he saw in his mind as he looked for clues. It was the Flash symbol, but which Flash?

There was so much here that seemed almost right, but not exactly. He had no idea what to think, precisely, but...

There! It looked to be part of the statue, maybe a fragment of the head. It had him shifting the undergrowth as he went for it, not caring about scratches that would heal almost as soon as they were made or anything else.

"What in the world?" he asked, straightening up. It wasn't the wings of Hermes on the earpiece that he expected, but it wasn't exactly like Wally's lightning bolts, either.

"Found phone in my coat pocket!" Thea was relieved to find it to be honest. "And well how screwed up are timelines? Because I'm covered in blood and glass shards."

Well, this kid is interesting. Manuvering down to the ground from top a statue in near silence, he watches the boy as he browses the statue. This place must be important if people are coming in here all of a sudden. He didn't know who these heroes even where, but if there's a statue of em, there's a reason,
he expected.

"Hey." He says. "You happen to know who these people are?"

[His voice is slightly dampened, as if he's further away from his comm. Mostly because he is.]

I'm here. Working out a technical issue but I'm here.

"Covered in ...?" There's a slow dawning of what she's talking about. She has to downshift to when she could have been covered in glass and blood at the same time and not know about it. "Thea, what's the last thing you remember?"

He puts his paw-like hand on her head, sending whatever debris she had on her into umbral space.

"Probably." He says with a non committed tone. "There, good as new, yeah?

Kristen found herself not in the GCPD bullpen but in a crumpled heap outside what looked like a Starbucks or was it something else? "Ok, something is so up." she quickly realized. The voice did not help matters along with a badly torn skirt and broken glasses. "Time to seek aid." as she fished her phone from her pocket.

[Have a very panic filled voice that is very female and scared.]

Does the name Gotham City ring bells? I'm looking for Comissior Sarah Essen, Detectives James Gordon or Harvey Bullock, Doctor Leslie Thompkins or Edward Nygma.

And I'm blind thanks to broken glasses so help?

He glances at the speaker, and there's only a slight blink as he takes in his appearance.

"Some of them seem familiar. I'm not sure, though," he said, and then offered a hand. "I'm Bart."

"Um, Barry? This is Bart. I hope you know more than I do. Things are really not adding up," came a return, a slightly young-sounding voice with a midwestern accent. "Last I knew, Patty and I were being studied by Brainiac for some reason."
orions_shadow: (Default)

[personal profile] orions_shadow 2017-11-29 01:06 am (UTC)(link)

"Shadow." He took the hand and then climbed back up onto a platform, sitting on his haunches.

"None of them look familiar to me. I mean, kinda, that guy kinda looks like Synapse." He points to the flash.

"That guy looks kinda like Positron." Pointing to the Atom.

"But nobody I really know. Not that I know the Phalanx or whatever." Most of em suck.

"I'd say they look like the Justice League, except there are some important people missing," Bart said, shrugging a little. "But they lived like a thousand years before I was born."

A little dissembling never hurt. "They look like the Flash and the Atom, but the details aren't right either. Must be the timestorm, I guess."
orions_shadow: (Default)

[personal profile] orions_shadow 2017-11-29 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Justice league, huh?" No familiarity in his tone. Also, time storm? That doesn't make sense... Unlesss it reaches beyond that.

"I'm not from this world. Can't be. Otherwise there'd be a lot more... something to recognize. Especially in a place like this. Shrine to the greatest heroes? Or Villains? No Statesman." Justa buncha people he had no connection to. Then again, he never really got the privilege of being part of a legacy.

Yeah he can totally see the relation between the two of them. Barry's smile is just as bright as he nods at Clark's assessement of how to handle the slowly growing riot beneath them.

It's a funny thing, working with someone else with powers. Usually there's a brief period where you get acclimated to one another. What they can do, how powers work together.

But after working with Kara it's almost effortless. They corral the rioters like they've been doing this for ages.

So he's totally going in for the high five here because after the week he's had? Barry could use a win like this. "Not bad, not bad. After a cleanup like that I say we celebrate."
chosenbylightning: (Default)

[personal profile] chosenbylightning 2017-11-29 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Not yet. But I haven't been here all that long yet? Gideon's here so that has to mean that at least some of the people we know aren't far.
chosenbylightning: (brown jacket)

[personal profile] chosenbylightning 2017-11-29 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, good luck with said skills. Barry's spent enough time with a certain klepto with an affinity for cold that he's at least aware of where his wallet is at all times.

(fool him five times and well, that's on him. And his credit report.)

A grin. "Yeah, so maybe you give me back my wallet and we call it even then?"
chosenbylightning: (brown jacket)

[personal profile] chosenbylightning 2017-11-29 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
"Wait. Cavemen? I just saw a cowboy riding a dinosaur. I think. This is pretty weird." And that's saying something given Barry's range of experience at this point in his life.

A strained laugh. "Yeah, there's that. Didn't quite get there after the Nazis attacked."

Iris is gonna kill him.

"I...don't think it's mine, either. Not really. But it's not like some of the other versions of Earth I've seen, either," he said. "The biggest problem with statues is when they put them up. I never liked that. It just reminds everyone of what they've lost."

He sighed. "I was hoping, maybe I'd see people I knew. But they aren't here. I guess this is just more my thing. Time travel, alternate reality. It always sucks, though."
chosenbylightning: (Default)

[personal profile] chosenbylightning 2017-11-29 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Very meta. More meta than Barry is used to seeing. But at least he takes it well, his surprise only showing with a startled blink. "No, it's not completely okay. But I'm guessing you're just as surprised to be here as I am?"
chosenbylightning: (Yeah?)

[personal profile] chosenbylightning 2017-11-29 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
Bart? Yeah, the voice seems pretty familiar with him and Barry is drawing a complete blank at this point. Then he mentions Patty and that only takes his confusion up a few more notches.

"Yeah, not adding up here either. I was actually about to get married when things suddenly went sideways in a pretty huge way."

A wry chuckle. "Which is kinda the norm anymore."
orions_shadow: (Default)

[personal profile] orions_shadow 2017-11-29 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
It's nice, because even in his world where it's more likely to meet a meta than a normie in his city, he still gets flack for his looks. Never mind his former association with a super villain.

"I dunno. Depends on if you're time displaced an' from some other universe too." It's too normal here.

[personal profile] orions_shadow 2017-11-29 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
"You're right about the statues. Only two reasons they'd put one up." Either you sacrificed in the line of duty or you're an evil overlord who needs to remind people how bad you really are. The statue of Atlas is kind of a reminder of how easy even a god tier hero can fall saving the day.

"Paradoxes give me a headache and there's probably about a billion going on right now. At least we're not in the reality where... I dunno, Lady Gaga took over the world."
kid_flash_found: (what would flash do?)

[personal profile] kid_flash_found 2017-11-29 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
"Seriously? That's...where are you? I think we should talk. Because none of this adds up."

A beat. "Pretty sure it's a family curse. I hear Wally finally had to elope to keep the Rogues from ruining everything again."
