THERE ARE ONLY THREE RULES FOR THE TDM:

2. It cannot be the character's arrival into the game.
3. Please only test new characters who do not have a version in the game. Our cast list is here.

→ TDM threads cannot be used to meet AC, but if the character is accepted into the game and both players agree, you may keep the CR.

Prompts

Happy anniversary, villagers! Buckle up!

  1. HEAT WAVE - Poor you. All you were trying to do was get yourself a little something to eat from the kitchen at the inn. Maybe you cooked it up yourself (The inn does, after all, have an electric stove — FANCY!), or maybe you just grabbed some leftovers. By accident or on purpose, you ended up with way more RED SALT in there than you maybe should have, and this is no ordinary seasoning. Whether you like things eye-wateringly spicy or not, it's August, you're sweating buckets, and it's only getting worse.

  2. SKUNK DRUNK - Isn't that just the way? You're out and about, minding your own business, and you get sprayed by a BROWN SKUNK. The good news? It doesn't stink like a normal skunk. The also possibly good news, depending on who you ask? You're now in for about 5 hours of being very, very friendly. (Just remember to keep the test drive PG!)

  3. BRAIN CANDY - Whether you made it to the anniversary party or not, you've gotten your hands on a piece of leftover candy from the big bash. Careful, though, these treats are more than meets the eye: Whatever COLOR it was, you've now taken on the associated personality traits. (Not the power, just the traits.) At least it only lasts 10 minutes.

  4. WILDCARD - Choose your own adventure. Maybe play powers roulette.

Texts

All characters are fitted with a smart watch-like device on their left wrist, which they can use to send text messages to other villagers.

- Texts may only be 140 characters long
- No video or voice, text only
- Display names may be changed by characters on the fly, but anyone can tap to see someone's real full name

Please list your CHARACTER NAME, CANON & PROMPT in your SUBJECT LINE.

Someone's got to have figured out something. They've been here long enough.

Key word being 'steady'. Sam has a still she sets up sometime, small batch, strong, irregular production schedule.

Other than that? Gifts are a thing sometimes but I haven't figured out how those work yet.

Right, people watching us who just hand them out when they're feeling generous.

I'd call bullshit but I've got a bucket of glitter in my forge that says otherwise.

You have a forge?

[ Okay, it's not booze, but color her intrigued. ]

Smithy, forge, tomato, tomato. Currently operating out of the South Village.

[personal profile] paidforit 2018-09-07 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
You said tomato twice. Was that on purpose?
nonstopnarcissist: CW (and inside where I shook)

[personal profile] nonstopnarcissist 2018-09-07 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
They're essentially the same thing so yes. You have something that needs building?

Depends on how clever you are.

Think you could help me build a still?

I'm a genius- and if I get a cut of the product, of course.

Seems fair.

Work out a fair trade for upkeep, and all that...

Anything undrinkable tends to go to the hospital or used as fuel for various spirit burning lamps, heaters, etc. It all works out.

[personal profile] paidforit 2018-09-12 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Win, win.

So when do we get started?
nonstopnarcissist: CW (If I erase mistakes)

[personal profile] nonstopnarcissist 2018-09-12 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
When I get some copper or some steel folded into the right alloy if we're looking long term.
