TEST DRIVE MEME

So first of all, welcome to Dyspros' very first test drive meme! We're happy that you're interested in the game, and we hope that you have some fun playing with the setting, regardless of whether you decide to join or not.

As a general reminder, we recommend that you look over the game information before jumping in. In addition, if you decide you're ready to join, you're welcome to put in a reserve, and applications will open on May 4th at 12:01 AM (EST). Finally, if you have any questions or concerns, please send us a message!

So now, without further ado, let's get to playing:

A ; NEW RECRUIT
Well then, welcome to the guild, Initiate! After some thought (or maybe the choice was obvious), you've finally settled on a guild, and you're ready to get started. You're welcome to check out your accommodations and see what kind of people you'll be living with for the foreseeable future. This is your home now, so hopefully you get alone with them. If not, then you can just spend all of your time sharpening your skills!

Whether you're just claiming your bed or you're jumping right into the thick of things to practice or sign up for a mission, a new recruit is unlikely to go unnoticed.
B ; MISSION TIME
It's your first mission, which is pretty exciting, right? You have all these pictures in your head of going off to fight a dragon, to come home with great riches and valor...

Too bad those missions are for the higher ups.

No, it's the middle of the night, and you're out guarding the small fields just outside of town from wild animals. Right now you're standing by the cucumbers, which are considered especially important to guard, for some reason. You have to fight off sleepiness somehow, so maybe an animal will come out for you to scare off, or maybe you'll just end up chatting with whoever is stuck doing this with you.

Or you know, if you're a dick, you'll steal the vegetables for yourself.
C ; STORM THE CASTLE
Okay, the missions for initiates are pretty lame, and you're ready for some real fighting. You can go alone, or you can go with some other people, but it's off to Castle Dyspros! You'll find a variety of creatures to fight, and the power of teamwork will help you make progress through the castle!

Or you'll die. There's that too. Good thing it's fairly inconsequential, if weird!

Either way, have fun fighting to your heart's content!
D ; PICK YOUR OWN
Just like it says, if none of the others appeal to you, feel free to make up your own prompt!

[ She sees his hand gesture, but she doesn't move from where she is. She pauses to consider her own hair for a moment, which is... not very common for modern standards. Or this world--at least from what she's seen so far. ]

Don't you mean hairstyle as opposed to haircut? [ Still not budging there. Nope. But she makes her voice loud enough for him to hear. ]

[ At first he doesn't reply because he's scoping the area. Sorry, shrimp, he can't even see you. It only takes him a couple of seconds longer before he notices that she's... Tiny, so he has to adjust his viewpoint. ]

Nah. Are you telling me that isn't a dye, Christmas tree? [ Though he's kind of used to odd colors, it was more of a trend than anything in the city. Crazy hair color wasn't exactly too natural. His hand falls to his side, actually going to rest on his hip. ]

[ HOW RUDE--she's not even that short. Go check your eyesight, four-eyes. Chloe looks at him put his hand on his hip and thinks about what to say after. Her hair isn't really real as in she doesn't grow hair out of her head for reasons... but it's not a wig either. ]

It isn't.

[ and another blink to process her next line of dialogue-- ]

I hope you aren't expecting help from people that you insult right off the bat.

I don't remember insulting anyone. [ Weird doesn't mean bad after aaaall! And Christmas Trees are pretty, feel flattered, Chloe. Otherwise, he's giving her an incredulous look.

... She seems familiar, but nothing seems to ring a bell at all. ]

I only wanted an opinion anyway.

[ She's not going to have this argument on perspectives, so she'll just dive into the last thing he brings up. ]

On what?

That. [ HE POINTS TO THE MOST EXOTIC OF OUTFITS that is supposed to be god tier armor or something.

And the price.

Look at all those numbers. ]

[ Chloe stares at the strange outfit and then looks down at all those numbers on the price tag.

Well then.

She blinks and then looks back up at him. ]

Did you want it? [ a pause. ] It would look weird on you.

[ He looks in front of him with the deadest eyes... And slowly turns to her and it's like he

sees right past her.

NO THAT ISN'T THE QUESTION is what is expressed when his eyebrows furrow. ]

...

[ By that kind of reaction, Chloe starts with stating the obvious. ]

Fashion is subjective from person to person from region to region.

[ But wait... she's not sure what to say next. Uh...

Her face looks blank as she's trying to think though. ]
