Test Drive for July 2014 Apps




Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for [community profile] high_seas! Here is where new players can test out their characters' voices, old players can try out new muses, and everyone can help each other get some threads for their applications! Feel free to use one of the prompts below, or come up with something on your own! Comment around, have fun, and remember that any CR formed here does not carry over to the game!

See you during the application round!


♦ So you're new to this world and have just woken up in the Town Square. How do you react? What do you do?

♦ You're lost at sea. Maybe you got separated from your crew. Or perhaps you're on an abandoned island. You need help!

♦ "Pirates off the starboard bow!" It's an enemy ship! Attack!!

♦ You and your crew are hanging out on your ship. Just another day at sea!

♦ "LAND, HO!" Hey look, a new island! How about you go explore it? Tell us what you find!

♦ Arrr, here be buried treasure, but not all that glitters is gold! Will ye be telling your mateys what ye found, or keeping it for yourselves?

A
[There's a middle-aged man standing in the town square, looking bewildered.]

This is... not what I'd expected. Perhaps this isn't hell after all?

B
[In the ship's galley, the ship's doctor is frowning and sticking his hands into a small fire he's started in a pot on the stove. The sea air is cooler than he would have liked.]

Peter the Phoenix | Shining Force 2

(a) - He's a bit farther in his life at the moment, so he's pretty and bright with lovely red and yellow and blue feathers, seeming chipper and pretty where he's perched. It's not that hes as vain as most birds can be, but that he's catching some sun, because it feels so darn GOOD.

Peter has settled on the head of a ship. He doesn't know what ship. He doesn't know who's ship. It's a ship, that was in a harbor at some island he doesn't know. His tail feathers hang off the side, dangling in the sun and breeze, and he seems to be roosting, happily at the top of a figure head. Eyes closed and perfectly still, he's enjoying the break in freaking out over things and instead enjoying the sunny weather.

I'm sorry, is this your ship?

------------
(b) - [The mention of freaking out from above? That was earlier. His claws clung to the top of a fountain in the middle of a down that was NOT where he was at last! This didn't look like ANY town it should have. In fact, this looked worse then most towns that he knew!]

[Hanging on to the broken fountain he huffed and puffed up, fluffing his feathers a bit as he glanced around the place.]


You want me to believe that this guy brought me here to find stones?! [he yelped at some woman that was trying to explain it to him. She'd shoved a small journal at him that he hadn't picked up. She then ran away!]

[Peter was all frazzled, losing a few smaller feathers here and there. He's a rather large bird, alsmot human child size, give or take a bit, so it as a lot of color and a lot of feather that was perched on a fountain.]


Please don't run away! Please, I didn't mean to sound ungrateful! It just doesn't make sense! God Volcanon! What did I do to deserve this?! [he called up into the heavens, clearly distraught.] You said I could help Bowie...

i. [caught in some vines somewhere, a broken hot-air-balloon-like contraption by her side as she sighs deeply and unsuccessfully tries to pull herself out of the wreckage] ...well, this is just great.

ii. [so, you were injured in an enemy attack... and now you're being treated by a 19th-century witch. except she's technologically a few centuries behind even in her own world, so maybe more like 16th-century or something.] Hmm, it's too bad we don't have any eye of newt... let me see the injury, would you?

iii. [the crew has indeed found a new island! ...but since it seems to be largely mountainous terrain, sieglinde is just going to fidget in her wheelchair and frown at her bound feet] Oh... I suppose I'll just be staying here, then.

A: Just arriving

[There's a young teenage girl in a black dress and a red hooded cape running around town, yelling.]

Yang! Blake! Weiss! Come on guys, where are you!? I don't want to be here by myself...

[She's not exactly watching where she's going, so chances of her running into someone, literally are very high.]


B: battle with the Navy

[My, that's a big scythe this girl is swinging at the Navy sailors who have managed to board the ship. Just a little while before that scythe was a gun, but the time for long range attacks is over.

[At least she's pretty skilled at using the thing. Though, she's only knocking out navy guys with it, rather than seriously injuring them.]

(Town Square):

[A certain red-haired man is currently sitting by the fountains, arms crossed and whining to himself.]

Ah, maaaaaan. What a crock this is. You'd think a guy can could just catch a break now and then. All I wanted to do we get drunk in my armory, take a few potshots in the range to let off steam, and pass out in the hold.

Now I'm stuck in this tropical shit-hole, with no way to contact home. I don't even think these primitive jokers know what a combustion engine is. How the hell am I suppose to get off this rock?

(Lost at Sea):

[Any port in a storm, as they say. Gene was just glad that someone had bothered to haul him out of the sea, since his first foray into sailing seems to have ended with his ship dashed on a high reef.

He gasped for air, hacking up water as he rolled around on the deck.]


Guh! Koff! Gaaaah! Uh...uh...thank you...so much. You have...no idea...how timely a save that was. I've been treadin' water for hours, now.

A: [If you look to your right, you'll find a guy seemingly sleeping, not paying any mind to the fact that he's surrounded by water and he's most likely lost.

If you look close enough at his boat though, you'll see he's got a visibly pissed look on his face. Wait, are those oars moving by themselves?]


B: [The crew's arrived at a new island! Smell that adventure in the air. New towns and people to meet, wild beasts needing to be tamed... the problem being that a certain someone's refusing to leave the ship.]

Yeah... no. How's about you go and hang with the natives or bears or whatever the hell's down there. If there's anything worth my time, come back and tell me. [He's a rock star, he doesn't go exploring.]

C: [A gang of rival pirates are attacking! Not his problem, usually. Except that it's noisy as fuck out here, and when he came out to find out what was going on, one of the dudes tried to cut him. His hair stood up as he lifted the pirate up off of the ground, psychic powers at work. With a flick of his wrist, he flings him into a crowd of the pirate's crewmates, standing with a smirk on his face.]

Should've stayed back at your clubhouse. [It's a pirate ship, Todd.]

mitsuzaki yosuga (deadman wonderland)

[personal profile] fakeonee 2014-06-29 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
A: Yosuga has never been good at these sort of things. Even if she's supposed to have wonderful self-confidence. (she frowns at her feet and squats in the sand of the island, pushing her toy gun into the warm surface. well. she's definitely stranded here on this island with nobody else in sight. a sea navigation gone completely wrong on her end. she should have never set out alone.)

B: (there are small grunting sounds coming from behind a tall tree, followed by the noises of fussing leaves and vegetation. when you look closer, there's yosuga, her pigtails caught up and tangled in some branches she'd been climbing through.) Yosuga...can definitely get out of this one. She definitely can...

C: (yosuga has just arrived and boy are her jimmies all rustled. she's in the town center as to be expected, her head whipping back and forth as though she's searching desperately for something specifically. when she catches the stranger's eye she makes no hesitation in going up to them.) Excuse me. Yosuga is looking for somebody.

Ariel ~ The Little Mermaid ~ OTA

[personal profile] legsarerequired 2014-07-07 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
[A]
[There is a Mermaid in a fountain. A very shocked and startled one. A fish out of water no less. She flaps her fin in the dry water fountain and moves, pulling herself behind it, not that there is a behind when it comes to a thing like this. Like...]

[What IS this?]

[Her green fin flapped, her hands grasped the stone of this thing and she pulled herself up into a sitting position, peeking past a tier of the stone pillar, staring out at the people. Humans! Oh gosh... that’s not good.]

[She was just fighting with her father too! But her father is SO going to KILL her if he finds out. She’s not even sure THIS is her fault!]



[B]
[You’ve got a mermaid on your ship. A curious one. She’s curled her fin under her, leaning over the railing. What a strange sight it was to see the ocean from THIS view. How curious! She wants to go swimming, but she wants to go talking to you humans, and other people, as well.]

[Looking sneaky, peeking over her shoulder, she’s spying around to see who might BE around. No fear right now. She just wants to talk.]



[C]
[Under the sea! Under the Seeeea! Darling it’s better down where it’s we--wait. Well, maybe not BETTER, but this water IS different. The crew she’s sailing with is exploring an island. Ariel? She’s exploring the ocean around it. Swimming in the deep to see what else might be found down here.]
