TEST DRIVE

[meta_tron]

It's the Sheol test drive! Gather up some threads for that app, or just dick around and have fun! The theme of this test drive is choose your own VR game scenario!

Maybe your characters are playing Uno! Maybe it's strip Uno! Maybe it's laser tag! Maybe it's deadly laser battle royale laser tag! Any game you can think of, your character is now playing. Please give us a little description when you start a thread so others can join in.

You don't need to "run" these games! In fact, this is a perfect venue to play out the kind of games that normally would never be runnable in an RP. Also, you can choose how "real" they feel to the players within them - it could be as distant as playing a video game (no pain when they are damaged, respawn half stuck into walls, powers they don't have, background music, etc) or so true to real life they'd swear it was real life if they didn't know better.

More info on the game can be found here.

Who wants to play catch the flying lemur?

[midgardener]

Catch them?

[captainplanet]

Well, just one. Momo's missing and I thought this was the best way to find him.

[thebabebowsout]

Heh heh, you sure you wanna play catch with me?

[also what's a lemur. that's surely the less important question here.]

[captainplanet]

Sure, why not? The more people there are, the better!

[thebabebowsout]

I'm no good at going easy on kids . . . uh, so. What's a lemur?

[captainplanet]

It's a kind of animal. You can't miss it.

[thebabebowsout]

Huh . . . no way! It was an animal? I'm not throwing an animal, that's got to be illegal!

[captainplanet]

I never said you had to throw him.

[thebabebowsout]

I thought we were playing catch . . .

[he sounds a little disappointed.]

[captainplanet]

Well, we could play catch too if you want.

[thebabebowsout]

You got it! But now I'm kind of curious about the lemur thing . . . I've gotta know, or I'm gonna go crazy!

[captainplanet]

It's just a lemur with wings.

[thebabebowsout]

Uh . . . do lemurs not usually have wings or something?

[captainplanet]

Some do. Depends on where they come from.

[thebabebowsout]

It's not like I've ever heard of one before! I fell asleep in biology, man. Talk about things you don't need in the real world.

[captainplanet]

They're not around much anymore.

[thebabebowsout]

That's just proving my--

[wwwwell okay maybe this guy looks kinda sad about that. trailing off . . . ]

I mean . . . uh. Is this a rainforest thing?

[captainplanet]

What's a rainforest thing? ... Why are a rainforests a thing?

[thebabebowsout]

Like, rainforests getting cut down and endangered animals dying. Even I know about that stuff. It's on TV all the time.

[captainplanet]

No, it's nothing like that.

[thebabebowsout]

Ha ha, you had me worried! That's some serious stuff . . .

[captainplanet]

Well, it's kind of serious in its own way, just differently.

[thebabebowsout]

Worse than rainforests?

[captainplanet]

Well, it's a long story anyway. You probably don't want to hear it.
