Test Drive 006
WELCOME TO ATERAT

Here is our Fifth Test Drive Meme! There are a lot of areas of the city to explore, so please have a look around! In case you need a little help getting started, I've included a few prompts below, or feel free to start your own! Exploration and player initiative are the names of the game here!

Helpful Links to Get Started

Arrival & General Information | Setting & Bestiary | Locales & Businesses | Residences & Housing Info | Rules & FAQ (ask questions here!)

I. Crash Into Me
Not exactly, but close enough. You have just arrived and received a strange satchel from a tiny, strange little man and are left more or less to your own devices (more information on what to expect upon arrival can be found here)! Follow directions to the north and check out the housing, or maybe have a look around the Historium and try to get some information from that giant glowing ball, see what you can waste your meager starter coin on in the Market District, or maybe just meet the neighbors.
II. What Goes Bump in the Night
It looks like Aterat proper has a spirit problem. Maybe you're seeing specters, hearing disembodied voices, your windows rattle when there's no breeze outside. Maybe there are cold spots in your place of business (or your apartment, which is so much worse). Either way, you're 100% convinced you're haunted. Hopefully, someone else believes you, or maybe you're used to feeling crazy.
III. When the Carnival Came to Town?
Take a look at the prompts from our latest event and go to town (or the carnival).
IV. Try the Network
The Tell-Phone allows for text, video, and audio transmissions to everyone else who has one. Give it a whirl!
V. Wildcard
The above prompts are all options, and there's much more to the setting than what they provide. Do your best (or your worst)!

"Oui, mon cher, that's true, and I can handle just about all of 'em." He looked around at their feet for a moment before stooping to pick up a small pebble, a fragment of loose cobblestone. He held it up between two fingers before him and his eyes flashed with a sort of magenta energy for just a second, so quick it was tough to catch, and then the pebble began to thrum with that same energy. It didn't explode, but wavered there in his delicate grasp.

"My mutant ability is tappin' in to the potential energy in anything, and gettin' it all excited." A flick of his wrist and the pebble flew skyward, popping once it reached a height of ten or so feet, the sound not unlike those little white fireworks you used to throw at the pavement as a child. "Clearer?"

"Crystal clear. That's a pretty cool ability. Pretty too," she said with a smile. It reminded her of a few powers people in her own world had. Which, in a weird way, was kinda nice. Made her feel a bit less alone in a new place to know there were people like that too. "Can you do it with anything?"

"Oui, mon cher, I got enough energy to get just about anything excited." He coupled his response with a mischievous grin, but there was a degree of appreciation there, too. When showing your powers to someone new, you never knew what sort of reaction you were going to get to them. 'Pretty' was nice. It was better than the hate they got most often.

"And what about you, eh? What tricks you got up your sleeves?"

"That's some phrasing," she said with a burst of laughter. Something about that mischievous smile told her that he'd probably meant for things to be taken that way. That wasn't a bad thing, after all the pressure from home it was nice to really laugh.

"Complicated ones," she said as she slid a hand onto her him and quirked her lips. "Do you really wanna be bored with an explanation?"
