→ 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!

Everything happens quickly and his face gets a few more punches and two to the gut which sends Charles to his knees, winded. In the time it takes for Zoey to show up, the telepath is dazed and doesn't even react to his name being spoken. Only when he can get himself sorted does he realize the men - now several yards back and looking as if they were tossed.

He winces, turning his face sideways to look at the woman. Charles knows her but cannot remember from where; in this world or from his own. Perhaps it was somewhere in between.

The men thought about coming at them, though one seems to be smarter than the two others and the next time Charles looks that way, they're gone.

"I'm sorry," he apologizes. "I just got back and things are a bit confusing right now. I know you, but your name isn't coming to me."

Zoey is almost amused at how his confession that he knows her sends her heart leaping in her chest. Too many fucking times has it been the opposite. The lack of recognition on a familiar face. He might not know her name but he knows her. That is a big fucking deal. “That’s okay. I’m just glad you know me. I’m Zoey.”

The wings are new, as are the offensive powers, but the rest is the same. Still the same old Zoey. “C’mon, Charles, let’s get you on your feet.” She carefully slides an arm around him, helping him off his knees.
