Test Drive - October/November


You wake up... in your bed or wherever you went to sleep because your character is exactly where you left them. A revival of the classic LJ/DW game DramaDramaDuck (DDD), D3 is an attempt to capture the spirit of the classic with some adjustments. The name, and the names of many parts of the game, pays homage to the original while allowing it to be something different as I'm not a founder of the original. I just had fun there and thought it sounded fun now.

An Open Lid game, as opposed to a JamJar; your characters remain in their canon worlds and timelines but can access a magical network to connect to other canon's universes. You, with the help of your castmates should you have them, decide how they experience shape your remaining canon, even if it means nothing changes at all.

Welcome to the D3 test drive. Prompts are sparse because this is the game where you make the story. Some optional suggestions are:

A. Hit by an infection

Like it says on the label. Your character has been hit by one of the monthly infections that take place on the network. This particular infection shouldn't alter the personality too much if you're planning to use it as a sample. For more information on infections, read the faq found here.

B. Canon update

Something happen at home you want to share? Or don't want to share, but the network is showing anyway?

C. A call to arms

Trouble is brewing, and you need help? You have worlds full of superheroes to ask for help. That doesn't always mean they can reach you...


That's the down and dirty. Not quite as fancy as you're used to seeing, huh? D3 is a simple game. Or it's not. It's up to you, the player, to make your experience. There will also be a log community so you can do face-to-face meet ups, and anyone can go off-world this time.

To perhaps capture the group game feeling that differentiates D3 from memes, consider noting whether you're open to threadjacks with a subject line like so:

Character | Canon | Open/Not Open to threadjack

We recommend you read the following to help you along:

Reserves will open for the first time on October 1st and apps will follow October 7th. After they open, they'll remain open instead of having cycles.

Hey, there are plenty of tasty yakisoba varieties out there!! >:c There's a teriyaki flavour that is totally amazing.

I, uh... ... never think about cooking, actually. 8D; Especially since I don't think I could make anything better than Sojiro's curry!!

While I do not question their addictive flavour, I must challenge their authenticity. Still... if that is all that is available, it is better than fresh air.

Perhaps one day you will feel at ease enough to make your own attempt at cooking Leblanc's famous curry.

I mean, there are also a number of things you could get instead. :|a Like some of those pre-made sandwiches, or even do some cheap groceries!

... I'm too scared of ruining Sojiro's pots to try and make curry on my own. 8D;; Maybe one day, but not now.

Hmm, that... could work. If I buy a pack of two sandwiches, I may be able to ration one over two days...

[Perfect! An entire sandwich in one day will definitely decrease the hunger pangs.]

Yes, given your natural inclination to destruction, it would probably be best for you to avoid tampering too much with Boss' equipment...

Yusuke are you—

Are you implying that you'd only eat one thing a day—

YUSUKE YOU NEED MORE FOOD THAN THAT—

INARI!!! >:U

You gotta have way more food than that!! Especially with how loud your stomach growls while we're in the Morganamobile in the Metaverse!!

You can at least sneak a Cup Noodle in there somewhere!!
