// TEST DRIVE_



Welcome to Eluvio's Test Drive Meme! Whether you'd like to try out a character in the setting, get some samples for your application, or just mess around and have fun, this is the place to do it.

If you're getting samples together, remember that you need at least four comments made by you in the thread for it to count.

Pick any of the scenarios below or make up any of your own. This is space! There are infinite worlds and possibilities. If you'd like to thread out hijacking a ship, do it! If you'd like to get stuck on a remote planet with only one other person for company, do it! Take the wheel and guide your own adventure!

The most important thing is to have fun!

➣ SCENARIO 001.



Welcome to Oros! It's no vacation destination and you're in for an interesting ride. While the planet is big, there's not much to explore beyond the vast, stretching reaches of a boiling hot, red desert. Which means it's fun for the whole family!

There are hostile aliens on the planet who aren't taking kindly to you, an alien on their planet. They're stronger than you and you're out numbered. Likely out gunned, too. But, really, good luck! You'll be coming back alive.

For more information on the planet and things that may be found there, please go here and give it a read! There you can also find the missions completed in game should you need any additional prompt. Whatever you can imagine that fits with the setting itself works!

[ PLEASE NOTE: Threads taking place on Oros cannot be used as game canon, as they required prior signups to participate, but the setting is provided so that you can get an idea of just one of the kinds of events that will be in game! ]



➣ SCENARIO 002.



Congratulations! You've been selected to be part of the team being sent down to the planet around which the fleet is currently orbiting. Initial scans of the surface show that oxygen is in abundance, temperatures support carbon-based life-forms, and there aren't any large quantities of poisonous gases that might pose problems. Your mission is to secure a landing site, set up a camp, and locate edible flora and fauna. Stores aboard ship are running a bit low on food and it's projected to be another three weeks before the fleet reaches a station large enough to replenish supplies. Once identified, larger parties will be sent to the surface to help hunt and gather.

The good news is, scans show fruits, vegetables, and animals are plentiful.

The bad news is that once your ship lands on the planet, everything goes sideways.

An unexpected ion storm sweeps through the solar system, shorting out communications between the fleet and the team. It wreaks havoc with the electronics planet-side too, temporarily shorting out the smaller craft's navigational array. Until it passes, about six standard days, you're stuck down there. And the bountiful harvest isn't without its dangers.

Even the most docile looking animal will attack. Sampling the fruits and vegetables will cause temporary paralysis, hallucinations, and psychosis. Inhaling pollen will bring out a person's baser instincts.

The planet itself is predatory, you see. Everything on it has evolved to entice visitors from nearby systems and kill them. And the fleet's unwittingly taken the bait.



➣ SCENARIO 003.



It's been a rough day. Everything's going wrong. Machines are breaking down everywhere. The owner of your favorite business wasn't there today and the store was closed when you stopped by to pick something up. A coworker didn't show up for work, leaving you with an interested workload.

And now it feels like you're being watched.

It started about ten minutes ago, but whenever you turn to look, there's no one there. The feeling doesn't go away, though. No matter where you are, it feels like eyes are watching.

Did you hear something? A quiet, scuffling scratching sound just for a second? Maybe you did. Maybe you didn't.

But it came from the misshapen monstrosity that just punched a hole through the bulkhead right beside you. The creature makes a low, wet gargling noises and darts toward you: six to seven feet tall, vaguely humanoid, and covered in strange growths over which is stretched bubbling grayish-brown skin.

Maybe you notice tatters of familiar clothing hanging off of it. Or there's enough left of its eyes to recognize the shape and color. Or maybe something about the noises it's making sound familiar. It's your missing coworker and it looks like the unfortunate soul ran afoul of that weird slimy creature the science team brought back from that jungle planet a month ago.

The good news: you can kill it.

The bad news: it can kill you.

It's fast, it's hungry, and it reproduces at an alarming rate. A single bite can transfer the parasites in its bloodstream to you. Then you'll be just like your buddy. And that shop owner you like so much. And all of the people on Level 12. And...



➣ SCENARIO 004.



You're welcomed and encouraged to make up your own scenarios. As you can see, there will be a wide variety of the types of things your character will encounter in this game. So feel free to make your starters as horrific, sexy, lighthearted, action-packed, or slice of life as you'd like. Make up a planet, make up a location on the Eluvio, make up a ship in the fleet, fight off a zombie alien invasion, there's no limit to what you can do on the TDM.

Fine. Then we'll go!

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-13 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
And then we'll go. [ confirmed ]

Though if Obito feels like starting an argument with you when I'm not around, that can't be helped.

I think I pick up what you're putting down here, Sasuke. I knew you weren't gonna disappoint me.

You're better off focusing on defending yourself, not trying to kill him. [ His vote of confidence that he delivers while finally walking back over to the edge of the pool, tags looped back around his neck. ]
liquidate: and i said, "i know it well" (pic#11036265)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-13 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
(padding along after him, bare assed. he forgot.)

As if I'm going to try to kill an Uchiha without another Uchiha. Do you really think I'm that stupid? Seriously...
eyeforaneye: ({where confidence is found})

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-13 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well. That causes him to pause for a moment, shifting his weight to his back foot in order to half-turn and look him over, ready with a retort--

And of course he's still naked. ]

Clothes.

I'm telling you to be aware that taking his money may have consequences.
liquidate: dragging names through the mud instead of biting his tongue (pic#11036291)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-13 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
If Obito's really had a change of heart, then he'll realize how much bullshit he put us through.

(sure enough, pants seem to just. melt out of his being. he even reaches down to pat-pat them off, like they're made of something other than water. #naruto)

He should offer to pay, as reparation.
eyeforaneye: ({but don't you move})

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-14 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ Apparently it's acceptable enough to him since he turns back around, and not a moment too soon. It keeps the narrowing of his eyes hidden, displeasure as contained as nearly every other emotion until it boils over. ]

I wouldn't count on it. No doubt he's got his sights set higher if he isn't just letting himself get lax.
liquidate: too much hogwash, not enough hearsay (pic#11036295)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-14 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
What, like Eluvio's top brass? (well, he wouldn't be too upset about that one.)

This is his afterlife, technically, isn't it?
eyeforaneye: ({and he is left to decay})

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-14 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ There's a small, still extremely unhealthy part of Sasuke that's glad.

Obito could be resting, he could have moved on to the next world, he could be seeing his and Sasuke's family and getting his forgiveness before Sasuke himself could even see them. But instead he's trapped here with but two of the people he's wronged. It finally feels like some small amount of justice.
]

It's a joke of one, if so. But if he reneges on his new choices, his new path, I'll correct him.
liquidate: in a world of magnets and miracles (pic#11036379)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-14 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
(LOVE IT WHEN YOU TALK LIKE THAT

suigetsu nods his approval at this, folding his arms on a familiar purple shirt that only just seemed to show up. unfortunately sans the multitude of belts. sadly, they have no use around his waist.
)

Kukuh, that's right. I wouldn't mind watching that, Sasuke. —Where are we gonna go eat?
eyeforaneye: ({what's your vice?})

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-14 07:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ Giving into a deep breath to calm his perpetually doused irritation would be letting Obito win and that isn't about to happen. Not today. ]

Don't get excited.

[ ... ]

I thought you had a plan in mind. Now suddenly you're unsure?
liquidate: 'cause the dead air is what makes me whole (pic#11036300)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-14 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
(good... good... let the hate flow through you...)

I had a plan for soup and that's as far as I got with it. I'm more of an improv guy. I'm sure we'll pass a good place as soon as we get outta here! I mean, it'd be genius placement to put a restaurant right outside of a fitness centre. So the fatties will give up at the door.
eyeforaneye: (Default)

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-14 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
[ Fatties? Fitness center? He catches himself trying to remember what stores surrounded the Ichiraku Ramen stand but quickly shuts down the train of thought before he can be tempted to develop any kind of craving. It's been years... The thought of it used to make him want to vomit when he was forced to eat it near weekly. Why does he actually want it now? ]

Forget it. I'll pick out a place. [ Pausing for a moment, focusing on their footsteps... ah. ]

Shoes.
liquidate: did they tell you you should grow up when you wanted to dream? (pic#11036319)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-14 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
If you're sure. You look like you enjoy a good soup, so I'll trust you this time.

(if you fuck this up, you're irredeemable.

suigetsu sighs heavily at the nitpicking.
)

You think since they kidnapped us, we'd be allowed to wear whatever we wanted. Still, I figure you're a stickler and would try to boss me around anyway...

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-14 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Suigetsu's footwear is far from actually being important to him but the orders themselves are so ingrained into his personality that he gives them without thinking. His dick's not out, so... That's priority one. ]

"Kidnapped" makes it sound intentioned. We still don't know if that's the case or how much of the video we were shown was honest.
liquidate: you were built to break, an army of imperfect animals (pic#11036356)

[personal profile] liquidate 2017-02-14 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Um, I'm calling it right now. This is intentional.

(don't discount suigetsu's guesses, they're usually pretty accurate......)

So when months down the line we're all sitting around wondering why we're science experiments again, I get to say "I told you so" and everyone's gonna hate my guts for being right. But estranging you all will be worth it.
eyeforaneye: (Default)

[personal profile] eyeforaneye 2017-02-15 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Don't start wishing for that just to have the opportunity to be right. You're getting carried away, as usual.

[ His tone remains as steady as ever even if the idea is one that bothers him more than he cares to admit. Still, at least that'd hint at someone controlling their way home as opposed to not having one yet. ]
