Test Drive for November 2014 Apps

[highseasmods]

Welcome to your monthly Test Drive for 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?

Kevin shook his head emphatically. "That's not true, and I'm so sorry that things have happened to make you feel that way. Prayer- if you ask the Heavenly Father in full faith, He will answer you, and not in some kind of 'phrase your wish perfectly correctly or you'll be tricked' sort of way. He answers the wish in your heart."

He tapped a finger against his lips, brow furrowed, then shook his head. "They must have done something wrong. That's the only answer." He turned to him, holding up the finger with a hopeful smile. "But- the good news is- it can be fixed! You just have to believe that it can be!"

"He's abandoned our world. He told the world that Heaven and Hell were full and he couldn't take anyone anymore. There have been no babies since then, people can't procreate. If they happen to die, they just rise up again and keep living, until the Gravekeepers come." Alis shook his head. It was a crazy world.

"I'm not sure what they could have done wrong to be subjected to that, but they are oblivious. They remember nothing so how can they change things? Every reset, their memories of the past year vanish. I want this to end. There are things I want to do, I'm tired of being seventeen forever." He paused and snorted. "Granted, I would still be seventeen."

Kevin's hand slowly crumpled back down to his side as he spoke. He just listened, horror slowly dawning over his features, the hand holding the book falling down to his side.

He opened his mouth, and for a moment words didn't come out. Then it was just a simple "What?", shocked, completely blown away.

"As I said, He has left humanity to exist on its own in my world." Alis answered. "He answered my prayer but truth be told, it's not what I wanted either. Basketball got really boring when I could never miss again."

"This... This is Hell." Kevin patted himself down frantically, looking around as though expecting flames to burst from the sky any second. "I- I never left. I'm still in Hell. I haven't-"

He slapped himself on both cheeks, letting out a shallow breath, then closed his eyes. This was no time for a panic attack. He'd already done that. He turned to Alis, eyes a little wild and frantic. "How- how long did you say you'd been here?"
