keeperoftalesTest Drive: October 2018—
§ instructions.
Greetings and welcome to the first Test Drive for Forgotten Tales! This is to help interested players "test drive" their characters in the game's setting and see if the essence they have chosen will actually work in game play. There are a number of prompts that vary from casual to more task focused work. So here are a few things to keep in mind while on the test drive:
Most of all, have fun! Feel free to invite those you may think would be interested to participate in the test drive.
§ notes regarding the prompts.
Setting Notes: For this Test Drive, everyone is being sent to a Draft with three nursery rhymes contained within. Each rhyme has its own section, but some elements may leak into others. In game we would have everyone sorted out in a more organized manner, but for the purpose of the Test Drive anything goes. Players can choose to do whatever they want and mix things up as they think would be fun.
Side Note: Although there is no specific "journal" prompt, players are free to incorporate the use of the journal either as something to fiddle with or to practice the "network" style of the game and communicate with others. The same is true for the Erasers. They are always ever present within the Draft, so while there is no specific prompt, players are free to incorporate them in their threads at any time.

Greetings and welcome to the first Test Drive for Forgotten Tales! This is to help interested players "test drive" their characters in the game's setting and see if the essence they have chosen will actually work in game play. There are a number of prompts that vary from casual to more task focused work. So here are a few things to keep in mind while on the test drive:
- Feel free to use the current workshop for help if you need it!
- Include Character Name and Canon in the subject line, and note somewhere within the toplevel your character's essence. It can be in the subject line if you already know what it is. Side note: You are free to try more than one essence if you're on the fence. Just make sure to note which one you're using for that particular prompt.
- Players are free to assume their characters have been informed of the very basics so you can skip all that if you'd like.
- Don't forget to refer to the Game Info for how the mechanics work.
- Feel free to join the Discord server.
- Registration opens October 19th. Game starts October 21st.
Most of all, have fun! Feel free to invite those you may think would be interested to participate in the test drive.
