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.

There's a splutter from the carriage interior as people begin to yell things and come running after the coach. While the lion-guy springs off yelling those words, as the horses are bucking and prancing, throwing and shaking the carriage all around her. "Wait! What?"

Sure, she was unbreakable, and she was actually afraid, but she didn't want or need a carriage to end up dashing her sideways either way.

Oops. Okay, like, seriously, oops. He hangs onto the edge of the building and watches as the horses cause a little too much mayhem than he'd expected. Thankfully the real coach driver came to calm the horses down fairly quickly so they didn't cause anymore damage. Shad climbs up to the ledge of the building and looks down to see if there was anything he had to intervene with. Is she okay?

[iamsupergirl]

There is a few daring leaps by said coach driver, but eventually, the horses are under control, and about by that point, Kara, jostled and shakened, but definitely nothing like bruised, is shaking her head, trying of all things to locate her glasses on the bottom of the carriage now. It seemed they had gone this way, while she had gone that way.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," she was saying while picking up pieces of pillow and cloth, assumedly put in them for decor and comfort. Now everywhere. "I think this is my stop, though. In a minute. After I find my glasses. You might want to tell people these rides come with a warning."

Still hanging from the ledge, the conductor apologized and explained the situation. "That little demon stole everything when i was inside getting warm!" He said, trying to calm his horses down. Once he was sure Kara was okay, Shad continued to climb the building and sat for a moment. Oh, he was keeping the hat, and it was good she was okay, though he was sorry that he created that mess for her, but then again, he knew he was making the horses nervous just being there. It was lucky that they actually did what he asked of them, but since they could smell him and not see him...
