Test Drive for December 2013 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!

♦ NAVY SHIPS! Cannon fire! Guns and explosions! It's a Pirates vs. Navy battle! **HINT: This might be a good one to try this time around... :D

Another stick like that...? [ If it's meant to be a weapon, it looks kind of weird to her. Then again the universe is filled with all manner of people who have all different sorts of tastes. Could be this guy was just being fancy. That doesn't explain anything, but this isn't the time to be prying too hard. ] Okay, if I bump into anyone, I'll tell you.

[ In the meantime, she goes with him, periodically checking behind her and with one hand holding her sheath steady at her hip. More of a reassurance for herself that it was there and ready should they find that trouble they were looking for. ] Hmm, good thinking with this approach. Maybe there will be some kind of service access, or a break room for the actors.

I'm a nosy guy, what can I say? [Lea prods at a wall with his foot, but so far everything looks frustratingly normal.

The alley empties into a large open area absolutely jam-packed with uniformed soldiers. The Navy, apparently, from what he's managed to find out so far. In the middle of the area is an old fountain that looks like it's seen better days and strangely, every single person in the square seems to be giving it a wide berth. It's been this way since he arrived and he's been poking around town all morning. And here he is again.]


And my nose keeps leading me back to that thing. [He gestures at the fountain with his Keyblade.]

[ Everything about the alley certainly looks authentic. Right down to the refuse and, of course, the smell. ] Ugh. I think I'd rather follow your nose toward that, too.

[ Marika was no stranger to cleaning and doing dirty work, but even collecting trash on two full-sized spacecraft could only approach a tenth of the level of what she'd caught wind of just then. Good grief! ]

The statue... I read that inscription, too. It seems familiar somehow. [ She looks around. ] No one else seems to care that much about it.

[Lea watches the motions of the naval patrols for a few moments before answering. Apparently, he's so used to skulking about that a stench like this has just become one of the hazards of his job.]

I think they care plenty about it, actually.

[He takes a few steps back into the alley, then points at one of the patrols, tracing their path with his finger. It begins as a straight line, but then his finger dips as they move as a unit as far away from the fountain as they can.]

They don't want anything to do with it. What does that tell you?

[It tells him plenty. Either that fountain or the inscription is pretty important.]

Hmm. It could be the way out. [ She points forward, and then drops her finger downward. ] Maybe the cover to an elevator leading to a lower deck. The fountain has no water in it, but I can't tell from here if it's been recently drained.

That would explain the armed guards. [ It's a leap, but right now those leaps are all she has to go on. ]

[His eyes haven't left the fountain and the patrols around it. Logically, Marika's suggestion makes sense. It just the sort of conspicuous landmark that would probably hide something, but if it was something the patrols were trying to protect, they wouldn't be so scared of it. That was how you acted around something you didn't particularly want, but wanted other people to have even less.]

I don't think it's the way out, but I also don't think they want us anywhere near it. You said you got close enough to read it, right? Anything interesting?
