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.
no subject
and I mean
you're right
it's kinda hot
you're right and you should say it.
Coulda backspaced all that out tho but no don't be ashamed if the thirst is real sometimes It Just Be That Way
also as much as they're hot i also kinda wanna be one of those dudes because like, imagine how it feels to dropkick a bunch of people
that's gotta be satisfying, right?
no subject
i need to remember backspace
but
the moment you learn how to dropkick
i bet you just
transform
all your shirts fall open at the right time
you get in car chases
babes and hunks all wanna be with you and stuff
but you get to turn em down
cause you get to fall for the best friend
no subject
and
i need to learn how to dropkick
i really need to learn how to dropkick
i wanna live that life that is the good life
i have a cute girl best friend too so?????? it all pans out???
it just depends on me learning how to dropkick and finding a sensei
no subject
comes with great responsibility
your sensei is probably gonna like
keel over
and then you gotta go on a quest
to right the wrongs of the past
and you'll probably get a cool sword, too
no subject
i'm probably gonna have to train and be as swift as the coursing river, too
mysterious as the dark side of the moon
i can do my quest tho i'll avenge sensei
i'll probably have to make sure my brothers learn how to kick ass too otherwise
otherwise they might end up part of my tragic backstory
and that'd suck big
no subject
coming together to defeat the villain
and when all seems lost
boom
roundhouse
no subject
and i get to do the roundhouse
because i'm the oldest and the one with initiative so obviously i'm the protagonist
maaaan
i gotta get on this
and then sell the movie rights. it can be an epic quest and a moneymaker all in one
no subject
you come so far but lose yourself to the power
to the fame
to the babes
and then the youngest rises up to reclaim your family's honor
no subject
nooooooooo!!!!
i mean i'd love to lose myself to fame and babes because that is like living the dream
but totty?!?!
if anyone's evil it's him!!! he's a dry monster! he plots and plans behind everyone's backs anyway!
no subject
perfect recipe for a redemption story
you'll get effed so he can fly
fly like a bird
no subject
totty doesn't deserve to fly!!! this isn't fair!
i'm the hero! i should stay the hero!
this isn't what i wanted at all!
no subject
if you go chasing dropkick power
it may lead to getting effed
check yoself
b4 you wreck yoself
no subject
because i don't want totty to usurp me...
it was sounding so good but then it wrecked me...
a tragedy
feels bad man
no subject
get a motorcycle
just don't get a chopper
lest you form a totally wicked gang
and fall down the same rabbit hole
but with gang politics
and rad races for honor and babes
no subject
see now you make the chopper sound appealing because i want honor and babes
and being a gang leader sounds metal af
what is the catch here
is one of my brothers gonna usurp me again??
no subject
you're the eldest
you're totally gonna die in a sick gunfight
that'll lead to a power struggle
where factions will be drawn and the gang splits
until finally they realize it's not what you would want
and join back together for the love of the road and family
no subject
shit.
at least i live as an inspiration
my face will live on in murals and my presence will appear always
i'll just pop up sometimes when someone has an emotional crisis
in the sky
a heavenly figure staring down upon everyone with my tragic death
i exist in everyone's hearts and souls
as long as i get babes and honor first that's a pretty good life tbh
no subject
at least until everyone maybe dies or just
moves on
depends on how many seasons you get
no subject
i more thought it might end up as a widely enjoyed series of movies
that people all know and enjoy but mostly for the bike races
but there's always this big message about family
and staying together
and there's a pop song about me getting one last ride when i pass on
no subject
they'd use classic rock or metal
pop's for people on mopeds
these guys kick bubblegum and chew ass
i think i got that backwards
but i don't have the heart to change it
no subject
not that mopeds are entirely bad they're okay
but rock or metal is far more the atmosphere we're going for here
and no.
you should not change it.
we will, in fact, chew ass. that's a guarantee
no subject
who said pop's bad
it's just the way things are
like how rain falls from the sky
and how nobody's hand fits right in a chip can
also, thank you for that guarantee, lololol
