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:

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.

Comments

"Pretty awesome you mean. Seriously, our apparent trapped in this place notwithstanding, just think about that." She sounds more excited about this then she should be. Then again this is probably expected after her and Cisco during the Dominator's invasion.

"Also, Iris is totally going to kill you. Not for the Nazis crashing your wedding thing, but if you miss another wedding."

[chosenbylightning]

"Yeah, we um, we kind of fixed that?" Please say you remember because he's not going to be the one to tell her she proposed on impulse to Oliver after saying no to his proposal about a day before.

"And I guess awesome? Still I'd be happier if we could find a way home."

[justanitgirl]

Why wouldn't Barry want to be the one to tell her the initiated a second wedding on top of his own after telling her now husband she didn't want to marry him? That could never be awkward at all. Imagine going back to Star City and having to tell all your friends and family that you did that and none of them were there. Imagine Donna's face, Barry, Donna's face!

"Yeah, I really need to get to a computer, you think they still have my old setup in the basement of Verdant?" There's a pause as she checks to see if she can track where he is. "Even a chalkboard and enough of us might be enough to get us back."

[chosenbylightning]

Are you kidding? Joe is going to kill them both for having Diggle perform the wedding without the family present. Barry takes a moment to check his device.

"Hang on." A rush of wind and lightning and he's back. "There are computers, but I'm not sure what kind of access you'll have or how much power is in there."

[justanitgirl]

Joe can be tamed by Iris. Donna is untamable. Or maybe they'll get together and kill the four of them all together. That's just diabolical to be what'll happen.

"That place wasn't the best with power to start with." She winces, though for a second she thinks of the idea of putting Barry in a hamster wheel to use as a generator. A snort escapes her without realizing it. "Is it still locked up?"

[chosenbylightning]

"Hey, it's better than nothing right? We can work on it together, get it built back up into something that maybe can help people."

A grin. "I may have phased through a door to take a peek but I can probably get it opened up the right way if you wanna take a look around?"

[justanitgirl]

"Oh, I am so not complaining. I'll take a tablet and a router at this point." She'd rig it somehow. His confession that he phased through the door just brings a smile to her face. Trust Barry to talk about phasing through things like it's totally natural and normal to do so. "I'd love to take a look around; though if we can find the bunker too, that'd be even better." Or Star Labs, or anything that was later than circa 2013.
