TEST DRIVE MEME
Thinking about joining Iterum? Unsure of who to bring or if they'll even fit the setting? Posting here offers you the chance to find out how they'll do while getting the sample for done for their application.
→ Comment down below with the character you'd like to test drive in the setting. Don't forget to add their name and canon in the subject line.
→ Choose a scenario or create your own, and tag around!
→ Test drives will be posted regularly in the months of March, June, September, and December.
→ Threads in the test drive are NOT eligible to use for activity checks, however, you can make them game canon if you wish and both you and your scene partner agree.
Possible Scenarios
Please note that all characters will initially arrive in their assigned housing; they are free to explore the City to their heart's content after that!
01. Arriving: You're pretty sure you knew where you were before you closed your eyes. But somewhere between then and now, you discover that you're definitely not there. In fact, the setting is so unfamiliar to you that it's bordering on unnerving and questions start to stack. Have you been abducted? Did you get drunk and pass out somewhere and not remember? Whatever the case, you need some answers. Or maybe this is familiar and the only thing that doesn't make sense is the layer of dust on everything around you which obviously means some time has passed. How much? No one seems to know. What you do know is that sitting around and waiting for answers is likely not going to happen.
So, you set out and hope to run into someone in the City that looks like they may be in a similar situation. Or, at the very least a person that might be able to provide some explanation. Veteran Chosen, make sure you warn the new people about the Shadows and advise them to steer clear of dark alleys and things that go bump in the night.
02. Party, party!: Now that you've arrived and hopefully settled, it's time to unwind. Inside your welcome basket is an invitation from the Duchess, who has decided to celebrate the growing population of the City with a massive "Welcome to the City" party in the Tower District. Wine spills free, and drugs abound, this is the kinda party that caters to all! The wicked and debauched demons and the good and decent who, if not careful, might end up tainted and corrupted at some point, like everyone else. Even if it's only for one night, why not cut loose and forget about whatever is pressing on your mind?
Nothing to wear? Check your closet, we're sure you'll find something suitable to wear.
03. Prominence: Everyone knows that the City sometimes influences its population on a monthly basis. Unfortunately, you arrived right in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride: choose your sin and get wicked. You'll find it's hard to avoid being sinful, almost as if your basic instincts are taking over.
04. Run!: A lot can go wrong in the City; demon attacks, muggings or there's even danger of being plucked from the streets and forced to partake in the Coliseum's version of Fight Club (if you know, you know). There are plenty of unsavoury types that all Chosen must be aware of. They rule the night, and once the sun goes down it becomes the Sinning Hour. Demons and monsters and humans capable of inciting just as much fear, if not more, come out to play. Mind yourself. It's hardly a tea party out there.
05. Network: Broadcast a video, voice or text message to anyone in your phone's directory. All Chosen have a device that they can use to communicate. Those that are returning will find their phone as it was, though without any contact that was previously in the City that is not currently. For the newly Chosen, a device will be supplied in your welcome basket and will match the type of telecommunications that was being used at the time of their exit.
06. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's multiple settings!

"You mean like this?" He lets go of the plate of food and speeds off, so that before the plate has traveled even an inch in the direction of the floor, he's standing in the same spot as before, balancing not only his original plate of food but also another one, also piled high, leaving only a breeze in his wake.

"Peter. Maximoff. Although there are some universes out there where it's Pietro."
The multiverse is weird.

“What's your world like, then? There's obviously a few differences.”
no subject
"There's mutants." Obviously. "Sometimes there are problems, sometimes there aren't. It seems like just about the time that non-mutants forget that we exist, something happens to remind them."
no subject
Which is to say, yes that is how things go with him.
"So the same shitty status quo with mutants. Are you married to Crystal too? I like her, she's fun."
no subject
"I don't even know anyone by that name. I'm not married to anyone." It's a good sign though, he supposes. Maybe it means that one day he will be.
no subject
Looking around, she starts to think she wants to be the overdramatic bitch of the party. Everyone seems too uptight, including herself.
no subject
He'll just eat his way through his two plates of food while she explains.

Secondly? Is:
“Sounds like sentinels and... okay, honestly that second one could be a lot of people. Which one was that one?” Does she even want to know? Yes but also no. Ah well, she's asked now.
no subject
"Sentinels, yeah. I don't understand everything that went on there because I wasn't there for most of it, but it was definitely a problem. And we were calling him, um, Apocalypse?"
