June 2017 Test Drive

June Test Drive!
TEST DRIVE - JUNE 2017

Welcome to the very first Test Drive Meme for Gacha Hell: The RP! You know the drill - comment below and form threads to get a feel for the game, decide on a character, and establish an RP sample for your application.

If you want to know more about the game for writing your prompts, the directory is over here. Reserves are here, and Applications, when they open, will be here. Be aware that, for all characters who join during this first app cycle, the initial free Pull will have double weight applied to ★★★★★ regains!

REGAIN PROMPTS

These prompts are related to regains! Don't have any of those? We've got you covered - mosey on over to the Pull Simulator and click the button for a randomized pull of regains, then use those for your TDM prompts. Of course, you aren't beholden to the results - since this is just a simulator, you can reroll as much as you want, or even just make up some original regains for the purposes of your toplevel.

R1. Memory Regains: Congratulations! You rolled some memories, which have been instantly uploaded into your brain. Maybe you're looking for the person whose memories they originally were, or maybe you've found them and are ready to swap regains to give them back. Or, maybe you just opened the capsule, and you're still reeling from the mental impact. Having someone else's memories in your head is a confusing experience, so it can take a bit of adjustment to get used to the sensation.

R2. Ability Regains: Congratulations! You rolled a new ability, and you can now do things you never could before. Why not give your newfound skills a whirl to see how they work? If they're supernatural, they might be a little hard to control at first - hopefully nothing disastrous happens as a direct result of that.

R3. Item Regains: Congratulations! You rolled... something, and possibly due to a glitch in the system, it spawned right there in Gacha Central, rather than being sent to your apartment. What the hell is this, and what purpose could it possibly serve? Does it have any secret powers, or is it just a weird curio of another person's life? Experiment with it to see what it can do, auction it off to see if you can find its original owner, or maybe just figure out how the hell you're going to get it back home on your own.

QUEST PROMPTS

These prompts move beyond the gacha machine, and deal with the wider setting of Gacha City! Looks like some new monthly quests have rolled in, so it's time to debase yourself in the name of orbs.

Q1. Treasure Mountain Survival Shelter: Here, the rare monsters that would otherwise be fused into uncaring characters for bonus EXP can live in peace... but they do need taking care of, and there's an orb or two in it for you if you do your part. Diamond slimes, gold imps, platinum wisps... the bad news is, a lot of precious metals and crystals are also really hard. As much as these critters had a rough lot in life, they're high-energy, tough as steel, and prone to running into things. Your job is to make sure they get enough exercise. Good luck!

Q2. Fetch Quest: Looks like this month's quest is a randomized scavenger hunt! Some of the things you can find yourself, but some of them you'll have to fuse together from other items, which means you might have a bit of an adventure on your hands. Where the hell are you going to find an 'aged barber pole' for this?

EVENT WORLD PROMPTS

It looks like Gacha City has connected to a new Event World! For the duration of this TDM, you have access to the wonderful world of Battle Arena Mermadia, an underwater kingdom where brave heroes meet on an ancient 3-laned arena for 5-on-5 battles to destroy the enemy team's Aqua Crystal. Don't worry about breathing - upon arrival, your body will automatically be converted to a new mermaid form so that you can engage with the locals without drowning. The name of the quest: Go out into the world, recruit some allies, and win those battles!

E1. The Meta: Before stepping out into the field of aquabattle, you'd better do your research, or you're as good as toast. Which heroes are in their prime right now? Who are their main counterpicks? Is Sharkbiter better top or mid? Would your own regain abilities be better served on support or hunting mobs in the reefs while your allies push towards the next tower? How can you synergize with your allies to make sure nobody gets ganked? What the hell is with all these items? Who designed this game?

E2: No Plan Survives: The match has begun, and it is predictably a complete disaster. Isn't anyone communicating? Where the hell has the healer gone? When did the enemy team get so damn buff? Praise the sea gods that death just means you respawn 30 seconds later, and see what you can do to salvage a catastrophe in the making!

[Nira blinks a few times as she watches the scene before figuring out what's going on here.] Oh my god? You're right, that is literally the best power ever. How big of a thing can you store with that?

Inconclusive. I can't store my entire desk, so there's definitely an upper limit. Haven't tried putting anything alive in my inventory yet, but I'd feel weird about it either way. Max 99 items per stack.

Really? That's too bad. [She puts a finger to her chin when he mentions stacks.] So...how different do things have to be to be in different "stacks"? Do uncooked and cooked eggs count as the same category? Or eggs of different colors? What if you dye them? [Part of her is wondering if this could be used as a method of item identification as well.]

[personal profile] willworkfordps 2017-06-20 12:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Inconclusive. This is going to be one of those things I spend the next two months experimenting with, isn't it?
ladyporthos: (confusion)

[personal profile] ladyporthos 2017-06-20 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like it. You'll keep us updated though, right? Since someone else might end up getting that ability somehow.
willworkfordps: (Good job)

[personal profile] willworkfordps 2017-06-20 03:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I guarantee that I will not be lax in my duty to provide regular updates on Egg Saga.
ladyporthos: (aw yiss)

[personal profile] ladyporthos 2017-06-20 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Great! So, are those eggs hard-boiled? [She has no idea if they can actually crack while inside an inventory, but best not to risk it, right?]

[personal profile] willworkfordps 2017-06-20 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
They're raw. I want to see if things inside the inventory can still spoil.
ladyporthos: (smile)

[personal profile] ladyporthos 2017-06-21 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
...makes sense. [A pause] Wonder if whoever originally had this ability knows anything about it.
willworkfordps: (Prayer circle)

[personal profile] willworkfordps 2017-06-21 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'll be sure to ask them if I ever figure out who that was.
