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!

[ The Revenge. Gods, how no one's tried to sink his ship while it sits in the harbor, she'll never know. How many other ships could possibly be docked with similar names? Tomorrow will be a good chance for her to find out, get a feel for her soon-to-be occupation. She'll need to be good friends with Mr. Titch if she's going to acclimate quickly and efficiently. Find out what he likes to drink and make sure she brings it on board before they leave.

But he also gives his name, no preamble, no hesitation. A shame she can't give him the truth. ]


Eryn.

[ There's no hesitation on her part, either, but she pointedly has no last name. She never will. ]

I would give you a surname if I had one, sir, but alas, I was never given one.

[ Charles has earned that little kernel of truth, even if he doesn't believe it. ]
