the test drive meme

It's a new day in The World, and a special quest is abound. But wait, the players cry! The game isn't open yet! Shush you, the GMs warned. This is only a test drive meme. The game is simple. You've woken up in a lush field of grass, soft to the touch and a little damp with dew. Spring has reached The World, and there's a randomized checklist in your hand. Your goal is to catch five of the Lucky Animals bounding about, and it's perfectly fine to work together. In fact, we encourage it! Collect them all and deposit them in a pen where the GMs await. There's plenty for everyone, but they will be watching closely for cheaters. Any items won in this pre-game minigame will carry over once holyrelic opens, so get your limited edition item set today! Magnificent prizes await you, so go forth! Just beware; some of the Lucky Animals aren't really so lucky and have their own side effects. (All participants who apply will receive a mochi hat of the player's choosing. They can be either small (think mini tophats) or large (like a harvest cleric's hat) and any of the three colors, with any variety of accessories. All participants who finish the quest will earn a spring-themed beginner item set! It will include one weapon and a bonus item set with five restoratives, five randomized buff spells, and five randomized food items.)

Aye, I would welcome your company. [ such quality in the people around her. It's almost startling. Has some force drawn the elite of worlds here? ]

[cavalries]

[ Beatrix is a QUALITY magnet. Only the best can suit her party requirements. ]

I am quite honored. [ She bows her head slightly and caught herself... She has been in Japan for too long, but anyway. ]

I should also introduce myself since I am the first to approach. You may call me Saber. [ SOBBING. Just for... purposes. ]

[blessedrose]

And I am Beatrix, of Alexandria, likewise honoured.

[ it's cool it's cool, her illustrious queen went around calling herself 'Dagger' for an entire game. She's used to names like this. ]

[cavalries]

Beatrix, is it? Have you spotted any of the animals beforehand...?

[ Since she just got here, she isn't exactly sure. Don't mind she she's taking a gander around, hoping that something will pop up in the distance or that she'll notice movement. ]

[blessedrose]

Merely a Tokoh and a High Wolf, though both were too alert to make an attempt on my own. They seem to gather near the blue flowers in this area.

[cavalries]

Hm. [ She looks off to the side to ponder. ]

Perhaps an ambush should suffice... Unless you would think otherwise. [ Since she hasn't seen how alert they are, she can't measure their success rate.

Aside from that, she can reassure that they would get the animals--but efficiency first. ]

[blessedrose]

An ambush would serve admirably. I have a spell that will silence your steps, should you require it.

[cavalries]

[ She has never exactly heard of something like this. ] That is useful. With that, we'll have the advantage.

Are or were you a magus by any chance...?

[blessedrose]

I worked long to master what magic I could, but I am hardly a mage. I am first and foremost a warrior.

[ she readies two weak Silence spells. It's weak enough that the conscious decision to speak will override the magic, but other noises will be muted. It might occasionally work wrong due to the World mechanics, though... let's hope for the best. ]

Do you not possess magic?

AAAH sorry for the late tag

[cavalries]

I do, but I don't exactly use it in a way that magi would... I mostly utilize it in keeping form and keeping a physical offensive, though it works well for defense as well.

[ She'll take a couple of steps to give it a try nevertheless. Clacking boots do not make that much of a noise with the grass underneath, but... Let's still see if it'll silence the crunch of the crisp glass. ]
