test drive

[thevisitors]

This is the official test drive for Visitants! Feel free to use this as to gather samples (8 comments from your char) or voicetest. Reserves open March 30th. Feel free to hit up our FAQ if you have any questions.

Please list your character's name (canon also recommended) in the header of your top-level prompt.

1 - Count Chocula
You find yourself awoken in a long-abandoned cabin, far too dusty for anyone's comfort and cobwebs practically coating the wall. Once you leave the cabin, you find yourself in a town in the middle of the woods that's...not looking much better. There are others here in similar situations, however, maybe you should look at them?

2 - Frankenberry
Day-to-day living in town is...simple enough. Try and escape and you'll just get lost in the woods until you find your way back. You're also a bit limited in terms of...comfort. There's not a lot here in the way of entertainment, but it seems as though you'll have enough to do in order to keep yourselves busy.

For you see, unlike other murdergames, the restaurant has been long-abandoned. While there are a limited amount of rations around the town should you scavenge, and a small supply in your room appears now and then to keep you from starving, you'll have to hunt should you want to keep hunger away. Fortunately, there are bows and arrows available...

For the less hunt-inclined members of the group, you can find something to do. Gather wood for campfires,  tend to the camp, and there's a limited amount of fertile ground available for crops. Surely you can find something to do to improve life here.

3 - Boo Berry
Congrats! Somebody did a murder. Maybe it was even you. Maybe it was one of your friends. Maybe the victim was your brother. Might want to look into that, maybe?

4 - Fruit Brute
...This place is haunted. You come to this conclusion based on the fact that either you got caught during a trial, and you wake up as a ghost, or your dead friend who was killed is now floating around like it's nothing. Might have to adjust to life as a ghost.

5 - Fruity Yummy Mummy
For all the spooky prompts you wanna do that we don't have.

Keep in mind that posting in the test drive does not represent a commitment to join our game. You're welcome to play here even if you can't app. Playing here does not guarantee a slot in the game, nor does it count as a reserve.

...Precisely.

[Hux eyes the newcomer warily. He doesn't trust anyone that gregarious. Maybe it's because nobody's ever been gregarious toward him in his entire life.

He holds up the rabbit again, tugs the bolt out of the thing's eye and examines the wound.]

It would be worse if I'd gotten it through the heart, but I didn't want to have to hear the thing's pitiful screaming.

[protojoker]

You put the thing out of it’s misery, showed your superiority! Man, I don’t really think I ever got hunting till I met you guys.

[R e l a x. John is a friend! You can trust him, though he is awfully fixated on that rabbit, and he fidgets with his camera.]

Oh! How bout we get a picture together? The three of us. To celebrate!

[holdingfor]

[Hux really doesn't know what to do with this man's enthusiasm. In his mind, he did what had to be done in order to keep from starving, and maybe there's a small part of him that found it satisfying, but he's smart enough not to flaunt it.

His nose wrinkles, making him look even more weaselly than he does already.]

Why would you want a photograph of a complete stranger?

[protojoker]

Memories! So you can remember this moment in your life, and I can remember it! Maybe it could blossom into something, you know?

[As ridiculous as this sounds, John sounds...sincere.]

[holdingfor]

[Hux's first instinct is to recoil, to tell this man to bugger off. He's clearly playing some kind of angle, or else unhinged, and not in the Kylo Ren kind of way that Hux is used to.

But he stifles the instinct, collects himself. Blinks at him with cold, pale eyes. He needs to be strategic about this. Whatever this gods-forsaken place is, this backwater swill, it's dangerous, and an alliance may prove to be useful.

Hux tries to smile, but it comes off more like baring his teeth.]

...Of course.

[protojoker]

Sweet!

[If there’s any hint of malicousness in that voice, John doesn’t see it. What he sees here is bonding, hanging out who someone who seems pretty cool, and maybe learning a few hunting tips and tricks along the way.

So he gets uncomfortably close to Hux, raising his camera to take a selfie.]

Make sure you get the rabbit in! He’s the main attraction.

[holdingfor]

[ah yes look at them, they are Friends now, this is how friendship works.

Hux tries his hardest not to elbow the other man away from him immediately, and ends up sort of just pulling all his limbs in as close as he can, holding up the rabbit between them and just. Grimacing.

Please take the damn photo.]

[protojoker]

[Click!

John eagerly awaits for the photo to develop, watching ecstatically as the Polaroid appears and...his smile disappears as he looks over it, especially at Hux’s grimace.]

Awww, that didn’t come out well at all...

[holdingfor]

[Hux looks like he's smelled something very distasteful.]

Pity. I'd best be on my way, I have to clean this, you know.

[protojoker]

[He thinks on it more, and he smiles.]

...Weelllll, I guess it makes you look like a tough guy! Big and strong, nobody’d want to mess with you! [scoffs] You totally make me look lame by comparison.

[That sounds fun though!]

You want help? I can definitely give you a hand!

[holdingfor]

[This is literally the only time in Armitage Hux's life someone has referred to him as 'big and strong'. Or 'tough', for that matter.

He'll take it.]

I...suppose I could use an extra set of hands.

[protojoker]

[John will remember that.]

You won’t regret it, pal! I’ll do the best I can - what else are friends for?
