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!

silentsummoning: (contemplation)

Should've mentioned she was using sign language, but King seems the kind to reply like that anyways

Now that was an interesting bit of information. Was this a place for banished kings? Auau signed, "A king like me, too, then?"
silentmonarch: (Sweet drops)

It's true her sign language is pretty terrible.

[personal profile] silentmonarch 2017-06-21 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
She let out a silent wheezing laugh at that and waved her hand in a "no" gesture. Then she haltingly signed out "Nickname."
silentsummoning: (surprise)

[personal profile] silentsummoning 2017-06-21 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
There was this oddly adorable look of surprise. Then she rubbed her chin, deep in thought before signing again. "Either your country doesn't have a King or your King is far more relaxed about others using that as a nickname. I suppose I wouldn't object to people using that kind of nickname in my country, though. I've got far more important things to worry about."

Like resistance to her reforms and the occasional assassination attempt, though those attempts had mostly died down.

silentmonarch: (This is a stupid plan)

[personal profile] silentmonarch 2017-06-21 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Her country had a queen who's powers were largely ceremonial, but King didn't feel up to figuring out how to sign that so she just shrugged in response. She still was curious, though, so that was when the pen and notepad came out.

You're an actual king then?

She went back and underlined actual for emphasis.

To be quite honest, Auau was finding the complete lack of attempts to use voice refreshing. But this was a bit unusual.

"Is this how you normally communicate, then?" And then she followed that with an answer to King's question. "I became King half a year back."
silentmonarch: (Awkward)

[personal profile] silentmonarch 2017-06-21 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Noncommital hand waggle. She normally used texting, but her in game IM client did not exist here.
silentsummoning: (contemplation)

[personal profile] silentsummoning 2017-06-21 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Clearly this one wasn't much for niceties. So she dropped them too and signed, "I'm deaf. And you are... mute?"
silentmonarch: (You're an idiot)

[personal profile] silentmonarch 2017-06-21 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
She nodded.

Not sure why. Too many holes in my mind.

I can sort of croak out a hoarse whisper but it hurts.

silentsummoning: (sign language)

[personal profile] silentsummoning 2017-06-21 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"No need to bother with me anyway, not that you should bother with anyone. Too many people expect those like us to try to communicate on their terms."

Yes, that was a pet peeve right there.

"I have holes, too. It's very troubling."
silentmonarch: But I promise it will be funny (I just had an idea)

[personal profile] silentmonarch 2017-06-21 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
You remember being a king though.
That's pretty cool

I thought that was a job you had to be born into


She wasn't the type to dwell on negatives for too long.
silentsummoning: (suspicion)

[personal profile] silentsummoning 2017-06-21 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"It wasn't an easy thing. I had to rush to become able to summon a Grand Spirit before the execution of my parents, so I could use the king's authority to stop it." She just slowly shook her head at that. "There's a blank there, but I'm pretty sure I succeeded considering that I became King. Not that my troubles ended there, but it ended the immediate crisis."
