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!

[ But then she'd have to talk to the guy who sells maps. ]

Never heard—? [ Kougyoku lowers her hands and looks at him in disbelief until she remembers that he might be from another world. ] Yes. It is a large country in the Eastern Continent.

[ And judging from her robes, she might as well be talking about China. ]

There is a land here that sounds similar... But I would like to know if they are one and the same.

[the clothes do help narrow it down, it's like she's from some ancient dynasty]

There's a good chance that they might be, actually. [considering that the entire city reminds him of Europe, who knows.] You don't seem like the type who likes asking around though, so you might want to visit a library instead.

[ But reading is boring! Kougyoku sulks at his suggestion. As much as she is terrified of asking others, she wants to talk to people. ]

Th-thank you. I see... So I am truly so inept at talking to others that even strangers notice.

[ She is so ashamed!!! Unfortunately, her attendant isn't here to save her from embarrassing herself and do damage control. Instead, Kon gets a crying Kougyoku.

She is literally crying. ]

[OH NO kougyoku DON'T CRY!! Kon looks alarmed for a second there, because now it suspiciously looks like he bullied her or something uh oh]

[for some strange reason he suddenly feels pity for her!!]

O-Oy, there's no reason to cry about it. [how does one stop a crying girl from crying where's toki and his sweet talking ways when you need him!!] You tried, didn't you? I think that says a lot.

[ YEAH people always feel pity for her for some reason... a day in the life of a crybaby princess.

She rubs her eyes as Kon tries to talk some sense into her. ]

You really think so? You are too kind, sir...

[he waves a hand at her 'sir', relieved that he didn't make things worse!!]

Just Shinonome's fine. And, sorry about that. [you know the CRYING THING] Crying's not gonna solve anything, yeah? So -- cheer up.

Okay. [ Though some sweet talking would have been nicer to hear! Kougyoku wipes her tears with a handkerchief she keeps in her sleeve. ] Shinonome.

I am — [ sniff ] — Kougyoku.
