test drive meme #1.
Hello, passengers and potential passengers!! Welcome to the first-ever eyemind Test Drive Meme. Here you have a chance to play around in the game's setting before deciding to app, test out new characters, or just roll around and have some fun. Enjoy!
No invite is necessary to play in the test drive, but please remember thateyemind is a (semi)private game and you must request an invitation before submitting an application. Request an invitation here!
Please note: Threads from the test drive meme DO NOT count toward AC and ARE NOT considered game canon, but you are welcome to use them for your app samples.
SCENARIO ONE: LIGHT UP THE NIGHT
The ship has stopped on Arion, near the settlement of Taunican, at the height of harvest season, and since the planet is largely agricultural, that means there is a big harvest festival a-happening.
What's neat about this festival is that it's not just a celebration of the harvest - it's a celebration of the community, and of the planet as a whole. The dominant local religion (for lack of a better term) isn't exactly experienced in term of worship but of honoring the planet itself - the seasons, the landscapes, the crops. Natives talk of Arion as if it is a living, breathing entity, because for them? Arion is.
Every evening while the ship is docked, there is a bonfire in the fields outside the town square, starting at dusk. There's a giant potluck feast, with everyone in attendance encouraged to bring dishes to share, but no one will be turned away if they arrive empty-handed. Fiddles and flutes and drums provide the soundtrack for the folk songs about Arion the locals sing around the fire; dancing and games and laughter are everywhere. This is a peaceful, joyous celebration, and you're invited!
SCENARIO TWO: WE NEED TO GO DEEPER
You're asleep, but maybe you don't know that - in the middle of a dream, it's not always easy to tell the difference between reality and the scenes your subconscious creates. You find yourself somewhere that may or may not be familiar, doing something that may be mundane or fantastical, but you're not alone. This is a dream you're sharing with your shipmates. What secrets and truths will you learn about each other?
SCENARIO THREE: STOP HITTING YOURSELF
Ope, looks like Navi’s wandered a little too close to an interdimensional rift in space-time, and now things are getting a little weird. If you happen to have superpowers, you may find that you don’t have quite as good of a hold on them as you do normally, or maybe now there are unintended side effects that occur when your powers are used. Maybe your character usually possesses enhanced strength or speed, and now they suddenly find themselves too swol to handle ordinary objects without crushing them, or they may have uncontrollable zooms and be physically unable to slow their roll.
No superpowers? No problem! Non-powered characters may find themselves deprived of one or more of their natural senses, i.e., sight, hearing, smell, taste, etc. Have fun being suddenly and temporarily blind! Walk into walls, eat trash, be free.

Rosie Zampano |The Magnus Archives.| Canon current, possible spoilers.
After so long being keyed on, the idea of peace is something that’s entirely foreign to her, even as she fixes a smile that’s more on the side of a customer service rep than some sort of relaxed party goer. She hasn’t come bringing food or anything, but Rosie does accept a glass of wine as she sits near a fire, not caring for the fact there’s nothing between her trousers and the ground below.
But she watches, of course Rosie does, trying to make sense of all of this. For all of the things that she’d learned about in the last four years, one thing that she’d never considered was actual space aliens or life on other planets. Maybe she’s lost it finally, she’s decided, or maybe it was just one more weird thing that happened because of her job.]
no subject
she misses having that link to her god, even if now she has a different mental link with the ship she’s stuck traveling on. she misses her friends, and she misses the work they do together to save lives. what purpose does she have now?
might as well mingle with the locals, she supposes. maybe an opportunity will present itself if she keeps looking, something she can grab that will pull her along until she can find a way home. root spots rosie and recognizes her from the ship, though they haven’t yet spoken. time to fix that. root makes her way toward the other woman and kneels on the ground in the space next to her without invitation.]
Some party, isn’t it?
