TESTDRIVE #1

There's a number of ways it could happen, but regardless you find yourself standing on the outskirts of a city. A beautiful city, as familiar to you as any from your world, with all manner of buildings within sight. A sign on the side of the road greets you, saying WELCOME TO COBA You're already part of the family! It's practically inviting you to step into the city limits. Why don't you?

As soon as you do, you'll find a pamphlet in your hand, almost eager to tell you all about what this mysterious Coba has to offer. And eager seems to be the impression you get about almost everything - the sun seems to brighten, the flowers seem to perk up - it's almost as if everything about Coba is welcoming you as an honored guest.

And you are. Though hopefully, only temporarily. Coba would love nothing more for you to become an honored member of her precious community.

Welcome to Coba, visitor, and we hope you enjoy your stay!

Welcome to the City of Coba Testdrive! Your character has found themselves in Coba, and are welcome to do any of the following:

● As you enter the city, you hear some bustle about a homecoming party! Following the signs will find yourself at a plaza with food, drink and live music, of all sorts and types. Why don't you stay awhile and indulge?

● Or, if you're not the party type, maybe you'd like to check out the city's cultural center! There's art, books, and other things to keep your mind occupied. And, maybe you'll meet other like-minded people there.

● Not in the mood for any of the above? There's always the beach! It's a lovely day, the waves are beautiful and the stores along the boardwalk all have signs up that read "TAKE WHAT YOU NEED". Maybe you need a surf board.

● Or maybe you have something else you want to do? Go for it! You're more than welcome to come up with your own prompts.

In addition to the above, we would love to encourage anyone taking part in the testdrive to world build with us! Whether it be a street name or an entire neighborhood, whatever you come up with will become part of the game's canon. All we ask is that you pop over here to link us so we can see what you've done!

Finally, ENJOY YOURSELVES. Seriously, this is meant to be a laid back, enjoyable game. We welcome any questions, critiques, and ideas, so always feel welcome to approach us about any and everything.

We hope you decide to stay here in Coba!

[he looks down at his hand briefly, and then gives him a nod, shaking it politely.]

I see. My name is Matt. Did you— [pauses, trying to consider exactly how to phrase his next question without sounding completely insane.] You're not from here, are you?
superseiyan: (i may have made a mistake)

[gives him a strong handshake, he's so proud of himself and his knowledge of western customs.]

I came from the Sanctuary. I think I got the coordinates wrong? This isn't Greece is it?
lifehack: (that's extremely vivid.)

[personal profile] lifehack 2015-06-06 03:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Does this look like Greece to you?

[gestures at the party and its . . . well, everything.]
superseiyan: (im about to be so cool)

[points at an obviously Greek set of columns just behind him]

That part does.
lifehack: (are you telling me it's on?)

[Was that there before? He frowns briefly at that, brows furrowing before he shakes his head.]

Huh. Well, so it does.
superseiyan: (heh)

[personal profile] superseiyan 2015-06-06 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It looks out of place.
lifehack: (they don't serve vegan in prison)

[personal profile] lifehack 2015-06-06 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It does, doesn't it. That's rather curious.

[takes a step towards it, squinting up at the columns.]
superseiyan: (im about to be so cool)

[personal profile] superseiyan 2015-06-06 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Looks like where I trained.
superseiyan: (i may have made a mistake)

[personal profile] superseiyan 2015-06-06 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! I broke my hand like four times.
lifehack: (just spit a bubble!)

[personal profile] lifehack 2015-06-06 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Four times? Doing what exactly?
superseiyan: (that sandwich looks delicious)

[personal profile] superseiyan 2015-06-06 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Punching rocks!
lifehack: (I'm really smart sometimes!)

[personal profile] lifehack 2015-06-06 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
. . .

Well, that doesn't seem very productive.
superseiyan: (i may have made a mistake)

[personal profile] superseiyan 2015-06-06 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I had to break it!
