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.
Instructions:
Post with Character you'd like to test drive using Name and canon in the subject line.

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.
no subject
Please don't try and arrest him. Oliver's already having a bad series of days.
no subject
Quentin is a bit taken aback by being called by a title he hasn't had in a while. He grabs the offered hand and pulls himself up. "Oliver," he replies, "is the rest of your team around?" He asks this carefully unsure if he should be reaching for a weapon or not. "Also do you know where the hell we are and what is going on?"
no subject
Oh.
Right.
Time travel is going to give him one hell of a headache.
"A few of us so far. From what I've been able to gather this is the result of some kind of time storm, pulling in people from different points in time."
Like say a time before Lance knew about Oliver's.. evening activities.
no subject
Quentin makes a face. "Okay weird question," he says, "when was the last time you saw me?" Maybe it wasn't a weird question after all, but he needs to be safe so that he doesn't reveal too much, things are complicated enough.
no subject
Oliver's expression shutters. "Sara. She had been dead two days." To hell with secrets and to hell with everyone trying to keep secrets regarding the timeline, Oliver can't hide this from the man, never mind the way that he had been struggling with the loss.
no subject
Oh boy this was going to be a mess, Quentin thought to himself. Time travel was seriously a bitch and he was wishing his daughter or one of her Wave Rider friends was here to help him explain this, because he sure as hell wasn't going to do it right. He ran a hand over his face. "Okay," he said, "first thing. I know you are the Arrow so lets get that out of the way right now. From where I've been I've known that for a while. Second thing...I'm ahead of you by two years."
no subject
Set it aside.
Focus on the task at hand.
Sooner or later that was all going to come due, but Oliver can push it for a little longer. So he offers a small smile. "Well if you're not going to arrest me, I think my day might be looking up."
