Welcome to the Test Drive Meme for Pollere! Reserves will open on Saturday, August 24th at 12PM EST. As a reminder, this is a capped game at 20 players. You must be on Mod Coco’s timeline to play in this game. Below are some prompts to help you get a general feel for the game and its setting, but feel free to come up with whatever you’d like!

Please be sure to refer to the FAQ for setting guidelines and drop any questions you may have there, or contact one of the mods at [plurk.com profile] pollere/PM!

Training
You’ve been given a brand new power, known in this world as a Semblance. You’ve been briefed on what a Semblance is: A physical manifestation of your abilities, mixed with one of your personality traits. Maybe you see the correlation, maybe you don’t. Either way, there are training dummies set up for you to practice on. Burn them down, cut them in half -- they’ll magically put themselves back together and restore themselves back to normal after you’ve given things a go. Of course, there’s always the option to ask one of your fellow Remnants to spar with you, too.

Grimm Hunting
It’s nighttime and the Grimm are awake and active, prowling around either individually or in packs. They’re prowling around the village and the only thing keeping them from pouncing on you and the others are the fireposts set up along the perimeter. Still, you can hear them growling in the distance. It’s unsettling. Maybe you’re content to spend the rest of the night like this...or maybe you want to do something about it.

The choice is yours, Remnant.

Should you choose to hunt some Grimm, whether it be for Grimm bones or so you can sleep a little easier tonight, you'll find that they're relentless in their attacks, swiping and clawing and biting at you with everything they've got. Whether there's one of them or several, it might be unwise to fight them alone.

R&R
There’s a campfire set up for The Remnants, and you’re all settled in for the night, even with Grimm lurking in the background. The fire, at least, wards them away, keeping them at a distance despite their prowling around. Maybe now is a good time to get to know your fellow teammates. How about a campfire story? Or Truth or Dare? Not sure how well your fellow Remnants will take the latter, but hey, it might be worth a go!

Exploration
You venture outside of the small town you’re in after you spot a small cave in the distance. It’s easy to miss, what with the vines hanging over the entrance and evergreen moss growing on the walls. Rumor has it that there’s some sort of treasure inside, and whether it’s greed or curiosity or both, you’re drawn to it. You want to see what has yet to be discovered. It’s a good thing you have a buddy with you to explore, because who knows what lurks inside? Dust? Gold? Or...another Grimm?

[ And then something like this happens - mostly because even though Randy's a really big guy, his reflexes can be inordinarily quick at times.

Times like these where he suddenly seems to tilt his head slightly to miss that uppercut, but he's countering rather quickly, reaching out for the other's arm to try to grab it and see if he can toss him towards the floor. ]

WELL RIP LANCE.

[ that's fair, even if lance doesn't think so. the grab connects, and randy tosses lance onto the floor. ]

Ugh-!

[ he lands with a "thud" and groans in pain, but battle instincts kick in and he's immediately getting back up onto his feet. ]

Alright, you got me.

[ There he goes...!

But hey, at least Lance was able to dodge rather skillfully earlier on. There was something to be said of that. ]


Hahaha! I did, but it doesn't look like that's the end of this match just yet, right?
loverboi: (stiiiiill judging.)

[personal profile] loverboi 2019-08-28 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, yeah, I guess not.

[ lance gets into another defensive stance. he's holding up better than he thought he would? unless randy's going easy on him... ]

Don't know what I got myself into, but too late to back out now!

[ Yeah he's going easy on him.

No need to bring out the "Crimson Reaper" in the middle of a fist fight. ]


That's more like it! Let's see how well you do from this point - take this!

[ He's coming in, looking like he's going to go for another punch to the other's stomach, but instead shifts the trajectory to attempt to land a hit on Lance's face (on the cheek cheek, not the nose.) ]
