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 merchant makes a huffy, irritated noise at them both in return, turning away to care to his wares and other (clearly more profitable) customers. With more eyes on him now, Jack abandons his mission of relieving the merchant of as many trinkets as possible, instead furrowing his brow and taking in the beast of a man that has appeared near him.

"Bloody hell, mate, what's happened to you? Looks like you've swilled a whole jug of bilge-water and then some."

"Fucking... the fucking ocean happened to me," he grunted, swiping the back of a hand across his sweat-filmed brow. He looked as though he might vomit again at any moment, or if he so much as... moved quickly.

"Never again."

Understanding flickers into his expression, and Jack offers a sympathetic look. "Don't have your land legs back yet, eh?" No wonder the man had an apparently deep hatred for ships. And the ocean.

He's walked young sailors through this in the past, though, and so Jack indicates with a nod, away from the merchant's stall. "I know what'll help -- you need fresh air and a good distraction, mate. Care to walk?"
