TEST DRIVE MEME




TEST DRIVE



Welcome to Visada's TDM! Feel free to get as creative as you'd like with these prompts. None of the threads will count as game canon. This is just to give you a chance to play around with the setting and get a general idea of just some of things that can be done in the game.

OPTION 1

Mistress Philenor, one of the vivacious butterfly-winged fairies that runs a shop in town, has asked you and another helpful soul to go out to the small lake on the northwestern side of the island and pick some Swallowtails. She needs a bushel of the flowers to make more of her popular aphrodisiacs.

You and your partner for the outing leave the village and make your way to your destination. The water in the lake is clear and fresh, you can almost see all the way to the bottom. A small island sits in the middle of the lake, within swimming distance to those so athletically inclined. A tiny stream travels off to the west, emptying into the sea.

On the southern shores of the lake grow the Swallowtails: great flowers of vibrant hues of blue.

Just remember Philenor's warning. Breathing too deeply of the pollen may have unintended consequences.


OPTION 2

Word arrives by lamassu post that there's unrest with the sea dragons. They're refusing to aid the villagers and transportation between the main island and the smaller one to the east has been cut off. People have been stranded there for two days now and something must be done.

You volunteer to help and head toward the eastern shore.

Maybe you meet others on your way and you decide to work together to see if you can resolve this. Maybe you enlist someone else's help when you learn that Lagiocrus (an ancient blue dragon) is cross with his nephew Jura (a young, free spirited green fellow who doesn't have much respect for people yet) over his foolish courtship of the princess Galzra (a haughty blue dragon from the far north).

All of the other dragons in the vicinity are too caught up in the drama to worry about the petty concerns of mortals.

Convince Lagiocrus that young love should triumph, or at least be allowed to get its heart broken. Talk up Jura to the disinterested object of his affection. Try to get Jura to see that there are other dragons in the sea. Or find some other way to either end the argument or lure the other dragons' interest back to helping out their landlocked neighbors.


OPTION 3

After a long week, you want nothing more than to relax at the beach. It's a great day for it. Fair skies, warm sands, calm surf, and naked bodies sunning themselves along the shore.

Wait.

Yes, that's right. This is a nude beach. Or if it wasn't, it is now that the first visitor decided to exchange bathing suit for birthday suit.

Do you join in? Ogle your neighbors? Swagger up to the hottie on the yellow towel a few yards away and start a conversation?

Have fun. Enjoy yourself. You've earned the day off.


OPTION 4

Wildcard! Make up your own prompt! Play around with the setting however you'd like.

[ Natasha had been silent through most of the conversation, committing what they were told to memory. It wasn't as dangerous as the other missions she had been given but it was still one with some danger in it.

Dryly, as she continues to walk, ]


Would rather her talk too much than say too little.

[ Especially in a land she was still getting used to. ]

[ Likely Kylo has become too accustomed to neat, efficient briefings where no time was wasted. However, Visada wasn't the Finalizer and here he was just another in a sea of many. Unsettling, really, but he would adjust.

Eventually. ]


Evenso two hours is a long time for what essentially boils down to: blue flowers somewhere on the Southern shores.

[ The very least she could have done was be more specific. How large, what shape? Would it be near the shore or closer to the water? These were the sorts of details they could use. ]

Along with "do not smell them".

[ That's a very important point, Kylo. Natasha isn't about to forget it. But she adds, almost a little nonchalantly, ]

And we only have to worry if there is more than one kind of blue flower along the shore.

Of course.

[ There's almost a wryness to the words, a humor. This entire situation has gone so far beyond the point of ridiculousness as to be almost baffling. ]

How could I forget?

[ Except that it should really be obvious. Strange new world with unfamiliar flora and fauna? Be sure to handle with care lest you inadvertently do something foolish like poison yourself. ]

And given what you know of this place what do you fancy our chances are?

[ She shrugs again, ]

Anywhere from fifty-fifty to two-to-one. Remember: magic.

[ She even lifts her hand up to wiggle her fingers in his general direction. As if the word needed further emphasis. ]

Not a believer?

[ That little display seems to suggest otherwise, but then there are people - Hux immediately springs to mind - that are able to maintain that (not so) gentle skepticism in the face of even bare-faced truth.

And perhaps he's curious. They've a ways to go until they reach the lake, after all. ]

[ She shakes her head, ]

No, I believe it. I know it exists and is real even outside of this world. I just find some of it ridiculous.

[ And other parts of it are actually a bit scary to her. ]

Ah, the pragmatist's view. [ He flashes her the barest sliver of a smile before his gaze cuts away again, settling on somewhere ahead of them. ]

How refreshing.
