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.

Character want ads are here.


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.

the tea leaves thing got even more useless here
succored: (being a shit | polite interest)

my god

[personal profile] succored 2018-09-24 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Be honest with me: just how accurate were those tea leaves anyway?
3ofswords: (smiling unimpressed)

live it, love it, embrace it

[personal profile] 3ofswords 2018-09-24 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
it was never about accuracy, it's about self reflection

most psychics are therapists for people who don't want therapy
succored: (interested | amused | smiling)

i can only do one of those

[personal profile] succored 2018-09-24 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Makes sense.

So if you read mine right now, what would they say?
3ofswords: (Default)

so, live it?

[personal profile] 3ofswords 2018-09-24 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
well, there's no money here to promise you an upcoming fortune, and success is kind of a mixed bag, so

probably some platitudes about ~romance now that the rat race is over

aka anyone's careers, including mine as a psychic
succored: (listening | unimpressed | judging)

it seems the least taxing so yes

[personal profile] succored 2018-09-25 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
We're in a place where we can randomly develop powers and got shot out of tubes but romance is all that's left?

No thanks. I'm more interested in which I should adopt: a groffle or a zalpaca?
3ofswords: (Default)

it's what comes naturally

[personal profile] 3ofswords 2018-09-25 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
i could make up something about how you'll die

i should know you well enough to make an educated guess
succored: (wtf | ouch | welp)

[personal profile] succored 2018-09-26 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Morbid, but I'll bite. How am I going to die here?
3ofswords: (almost profile; almost looking over shou)

doing something stupid to save someone else

weather or monster related
succored: (teasing | amused | snarky)

[personal profile] succored 2018-09-29 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
It'd be a good way to go, but more importantly: how is weather going to factor into this? Should I try to find rain boots or something?
