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.)

[He wastes no time and runs after Takeshi. At least they didn't get too far away from the pens so it's not that long of a trip.]

[So they throw the Fate Worm into the pit and go back hunting more Lucky Animals. It takes a while, and a lot of running around, and jumping and falling face first in the dirt, but Yuuta and Takeshi finally, finally wrangle their fifth Lucky Animal! Or maybe a not so lucky animal; it was a Malice Cat!]

This, uh, this counts, right?

[isolates]

Well, it's an animal.

[Although he's not sure. The more he looks at it--]

Something about it seems off though. I guess we won't know until we catch it.

[lookslikemomo]

I just hope we won't get told we need a new set of five if this one doesn't count...

[sneaking up at the kitty now...]

[isolates]

Don't say that, you'll jinx us or something!

[because that would definitely suck.

Yuuta makes a loop around so that he's behind the Malice Cat. Then without warning, he jumps up at it in an attempt to scare it into running at Takeshi.]

[lookslikemomo]

[Takeshi has his tongue stuck out in concentration, not wanting to let this last one go. Yuuta's suprise attack works on the Malice Cat as it screeches and jumps back, running straight to Takeshi who grabs it with all his might!

It's just that something feels so very bad about this cat once he does. He feels... weaker? All of a sudden.]

Ah...huh? [The Malice Cat is squirming in Takeshi's arms.] It doesn't feel so lucky, this animal... But I guess we'll find out if we bring him back, huh?

[isolates]

We might as well, since we caught it already.

[He gives Takeshi a puzzled stare before leading the way back to the pens.]

[ooc: want to start threading in the pens and have the GM yell at them?]

[lookslikemomo]

Yeah, alright. Let's go! I hope we win something super cool!

[ooc; sure! :o but which pen? or do you want to start in a new pen....?]

3! bcos I claimed that one but my other thread died so we can use it |D

[isolates]

[And so they took the Malice Cat to the pens.]
