→ Comment with the character you'd like to test drive in the setting, with name and canon in the subject line.
→ Choose a scenario or create your own, and tag around!
→ If you're still tagging in the last TDM, you may continue to do so, or feel free to move your threads here. New test drives are now posted sometime during the months of: March, June, September, December.
→ Threads in the test drive are NOT eligible to use for activity checks, however you can make them game canon if you wish — and only if both players are accepted in the game.

Possible Scenarios Please note that all characters will initially arrive in their assigned housing; they are free to explore the City to their heart's content after that! 01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach churning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running? 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party in the Tower District that spills out its doors in welcome. Obviously, this whole thing is weird and you don't know who your hosts are, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences its population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride: choose your sin and be wicked. 05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villain. 06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank. 07. Network: There's a network device in your pocket - or at least a familiar object that seems to work in mysterious ways. Perhaps you can take to that and ask for a bit of help? Or maybe you'd prefer to have a little fun with all of this. Surely someone will reply. 08. Wild Card:Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

Caius has been working steadily over the past several weeks. It keeps him busy and distracted from what's been going on. Besides talking to Devi and Airy occasionally, the immortal spends his time between OHM, Liam's and the Highgarden Shelter, tending to each in a way that almost seems like he's protecting them, which he will truthfully acknowledge if asked.

So, it's sometime in the early afternoon when Caius opens Liam's and starts the daily tasks that will have him there for at least a few hours.

[seekingcrocodile]

The first thing he'd done was check out his assigned lodgings -- they look like they did the last time he was here -- and then he'd decided to head to Liam's, to see how his old bar is faring. Also because he could use a drink after all of this, and his favorite place to get one remains the place he named after his brother. (Brothers, in fact, although he'd really only named it after the one.)

So it's not long after it opens that he walks in, and doesn't notice at first who's inside.

Having been in the back office when Killian enters, a rather young female bartender glances up and gives a little smile. It's clear she wasn't around to know who the original owner of the place was, so her demeanour is what it would be with any customer.

She greets him. "Welcome to Liam's. What can I get ya?"

Caius wanders out, eyes instantly going to the other man. He tries not to be overly excited to see him given how the multiverse works, but he can't contain it.

"Killian!"

[seekingcrocodile]

He's about to order a drink when Caius comes in and that grabs his attention instead. "Caius!" he responds with a grin. At least if he has to be here, again, without Emma, again, at least there's a familiar face here.

"There's something about this place to like, at least."
