TEST DRIVE MEME



TEST DRIVE MEME
PREMISE PLOT ARRIVAL SETTING NAVIGATION

01. ARRIVING IN PELEA
A cold wind singing down from the white-capped mountains which hang blue-black in the distance stirs your cheek, the tall grass all around you. A bough creaks as the wind makes it tremble, and the dappled shadows drift over you, leaves rustling. As you blink awake, you hear the quiet hiss of water over stones. You are not where you once were!

You and a large group of strangers are blinking awake, pulling yourselves up off the dirt, grass, and rubble near a small wooded stream. There is no evidence of civilization in sight, and as you exchange stories you realize that you must decide what to do.

Will you head past the trees and towards the mountains? Deeper into the forest? Stay put and wait for help to arrive? You might even try to meet everyone else, and either convince them to band together... or head their separate ways.

02. CITY SLICKER
There are many cities throughout the world of Pelea, and in most player characters, the Flaws, are welcomed as curiosities. From the pastoral villages or bustling, grand cities of Shousal to the massive, sprawling bureaucratic centers of the Empire, your characters will find a wide variety of cultures and races to interact with and investigate. They could be seeking empoyment, answers to the mystery of their arrival, or a quiet place to drink away their worries.

03. WILDCARD!

[Kara doesn't have a lot of interest in plots or plans; if she'd been here for any business but her own, Loki would've already had a sword in his back.]

It'd be better to discuss that in private.

[Better not to make themselves known as Flaws.]

[ Ahem. A sword would have aimed but certainly not made contact. He gestures gallantly. ]

Of course. Lead the way.
valr: (yes you did dear)

I have a room.

[That's the good thing about inns, there's always a place to rest, whether it's a bale of hay in the stables, or a proper bed in a rented room.

Kara has enough coin for the latter, so she leads Loki upstairs to the sparse lodgings she's claimed for the night. It isn't much, but there's a fire, a bed, a small table, and a basin of clean water. And the walls are thick enough that she doesn't have to worry about anyone eavesdropping.]


There's food, if you hunger.

[It isn't much, just a loaf of bread on the table, accompanied by a hard cheese and salted beef, but she won't be inhospitable to a god.]

Have you had any trouble here? This place doesn't welcome strangers.

[Despite everything, despite who he is, Loki is still one of her gods, and she still... cares.]
thatboyisamonster: (So let the sound bring me back)

[ Loki leans against the door. His eyes never leave her. Any vassal of Odin's deserves his utmost suspicion and distrust, though he suspects that the Odin she serves vastly differs from the man who locked him in a box for all eternity. He drawls. ]

If they did, I would be surprised. But trouble comes to all.

[ The message was clear, I can take care of myself. ]
