We will be putting up a new Test Drive on the 15th of every month.

Prompts

1. Venture City in Peril! Dr. Devious’s army of Deviobots are ransacking the city! No, wait, Baron Von Tyrannosaur is back with another dinosaur army! No, wait, it's... really, ther's a lot of different ways a city can be imperiled. However, no matter the threat, it’s up to you, the Omegafriends, to save the day - but you’ll need to work together to repel the forces of evil.

2. A Hero is Born! What started as an ordinary day was thrown into chaos as your newfound superpowers began to suddenly awaken! What perilous problems and zany antics will this bring about? Stay tuned to find out!

3. The Adventure Mundane! It's not all over-the-top heroics here - sometimes, ordinary day-to-day life can be just as much trouble! On the trail of a story for the Daily Venture? Frantic last-minute studying for tomorrow's math test? Harassing people to sign petitions on street corners? Hitting the arcade to destroy simulated villains instead of real ones? The sky's the limit!

4. Welcome to the Omegabase! The super-secret underground Omegabase has it all - training centers, VR simulators, free snack machines, but most important is a whole lot of Supers! Take a minute to kick back and get to know your fellow heroes.

5. The Mighty Showdown! In the life of a Super, good and evil are always clashing in battle. Today, you’ve come face to face with one of the many supervillains threatening the future of Venture City! Who will rise and who will fall? Next issue: The shocking answer!

6. Time Warp! Chasing after Lady Blue's latest heist has left you temporarily stranded, along with your fellow heroes, in another era. Where and when have you gone, and how will you cope with the bizarre situation?

7. Wild Card! Got an idea for a thread or prompt that isn’t one of those? Make up your own! We won’t stop you.

Comments

Nui Harime | Kill la Kill | OTA

[thegrandcouturier]

[HERE I GO AGAIN ON MY OWN]

[rose_liberated]

Do you actually need a hostage, or are you just showboating for the crowds?

[Guess who got caught up in this fight between Nui and whoever Nui is after?]

Kevin Levin / Ben 10

[buffing]

[Kevin Levin, aka the small-time supervillain and lackey for hire, Conduit.]

[former_endboss]

[ Congratulations Conduit. You're so small time, that you're now a Minion's minion. Enjoy being on the bottom of this superpower totem pole. ]

6, but you pick the era they're in

[thesmartone]

[Gwen had only partially been trying to hunt down Lady Blue. Honestly, the heist, while significant, wasn't something that mattered to her. The Omegafriends would handle the kidnapping of their own building and there were more then enough of them. What she was worried about more was the latest bank robbery that had left the citizens scared to go outside.

Besides, this was something familiar to her. After being thrown head first into the supernatural she needed something familiar. Conduit was familiar.]

Stop right there!

[She tries to throw an energy wall in front of him.]

Waver Velvet / Fate-Zero / OTA

[waveringmage]

[You are a king and I am a lionheart.]

Discord | MLP: fim

[1000yearsstoned]

[Super old lord of chaos previously encased in stone at your service!

1: Venture city is in serious peril! Dinosaur soldiers wrecking everything, Deviobots ransacking the city, and villains of all sorts and kinds joining in the chaos. And in the middle of all this destruction, is Discord, sitting back in his floating movie seat, munching popcorn and watching as the city burned.

He didn't even have to do anything!

3: There's a... very strangely dressed man, standing in Hero's plaza, looking at the spot where the statue of an evil sorcerer once stood. Come to think of it, the man looks eerily similar to the disappeared statue...

6: You've been hurled through a portal in time! But it looks like you're still in the area where Venture city will stand one day. Unfortunately, while you're enjoying your stay, you're likely to run into the evil sorcerer that has been causing chaos around here for a very long time.

Maybe he'll send you home? Maybe.]

3

[dropkick_princess]

Good riddance. Who even put that statue there in the first place? Now that it's gone, they can replace it with a statue of me.

[Not yet noticing the guy who looks just like the now missing statue...]

1

[electricalcurrent]

The dinosaurs were met with force fists, blasting them back and unconscious now. Then there were blades out now for the robots, slicing them to ribbons as her thrusters activated on the back. Sliding and slashing around the waiting Discord. She didn't notice him at first until she thrust to a stop. A few clicks and responses eventually lead to her thrusters converting to a solar panels before she turned towards the man.

"Who in the Abyss are you?" a chirpy, female voice came from the 5 foot, six suited individual.

Princess Mint / Threads of Fate / OTA

[dropkick_princess]

[Prompt 5]
[Maybe you're a villain who's in the middle of delivering a grand speech of doom, or perhaps you were in the middle of fighting some other hero... or you're just causing general chaos and/or mischief? Whatever the case, there's a high velocity princess coming at you with a(n attempted) drop kick to the head. No, she's not flying... she's just that good at drop kicks]

[Prompt 4]
[There's a young lady in the cafeteria, gorging herself on more food than you'd think somebody with that kind of body could handle.]

[Though, at the same time, she's not very thorough in finishing what she eats, and tends to jump around sampling everything she grabbed...]

[Prompt 7]
[You and Mint just defeated some villain (or you watched her defeat the villain), and... what was that she just grabbed off the unconscious person's body?]

Heh heh heh... one step closer to World Domination~

[... Did she really just say that?]

7

[rose_liberated]

...Should a supposed Heroine really be talking about World domination? Really?

[Formerly the villian's hostage, Rozalin is still disentangling herself from the ropes.]

4

[sonicheart]

That's... A lot of food. Are you all right?

[Have a cowboy-hat wearing supersonic superheroine.]

7

[electricalcurrent]

The top blue eye focuses on Mint before the head turns to look. The mechanical suited person takes a few moments to react to this.

Though the reaction itself came out kind of garbled because you had this...

"That seems unwise to proclaim." in an electronic, masculine voice.

"Hey you a bad guy too or something?" in a chirpy, feminine voice.

Somewhat garbled, of course, since they spoke over one another.

Shotaro Hidari | Kamen Rider W

[countyoursins]

[1.] [Ah yes, another one of those strange bugsuited heroes. This one looks like some kind of weird half and half monster and when he talks it sounds like two voices speaking together.]

[Despite being a weirdo, it looks like he's here to help. He comes out of nowhere to send a flying kick to an unfortnate raptor lackey and lands on his feet, flicking his wrist and then pointing dramatically towards the origin of this dino crisis.]

[pay no mind to the theme music, folks.]

Oi, Baron Von Tyrannosaur. You've made the citizens of this city cry for the last time. It's time to count up your sins!

[3] [When Shotaro isn't fighting crime and sharing his body with his partner to fight said crime- he has a day job. Shotaro Hidari, Venture City's very own Private Investigator.]

[Too bad most of the work he gets involves lost pets. Which is what he's doing now. Trying to coax a cat out of a tree.]

Fluffer-nutter! Here, Fluffer-nutter! Come on! Little Suzie's really worried about you!

[Making despairing cat noises is a part of the pet gathering process, we promise.]

[6]

WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED!?

[Okay, so, she was cute. He had no idea she was a time traveling thief. IT WAS AN HONEST MISTAKE. Now he is ...somewhere. The somewhere isn't helpful because this doesn't look like Venture City at all. Instead of being particularly rational he's going to shout indignantly at things for a little bit.]

[You are welcome to pick the time period!]

3

[gigigigigigi]

[So that cat isn't alone in that tree. Amazon sticks his head out to peer down at the meowing detective.]

You not cat.

[So why are you meowing like one, you weirdo?]

naturally i must tag this despite the fact that i should be making my own toplevel.

[epistemophile]

It seems we've been misplaced. Literally-- given that this is quite obviously no longer Venture City.

[So says the slender teenager somewhere to your right, as he always is, with a hand curiously stroking a beard he will never grow.]

It looks like we're in over our heads again, Shotaro.

1

[forgottendecade]

[ Strange bugsuited hero monologuing? Check. Lots of minions standing around flexing muscles while he does so? Check. Joji just sort of rolls his eyes behind his goggles and just walks right on into the line of minions. His right arm sparked as the segments folded out, the flesh not really flesh and the bones and muscles even stranger. It hurt - like always Joji bit his lip against the pain - but by the time he hit the line and started swatting dinos and robots out of the way, his arm looked less like an arm and more like a huge skeletal hand lined with an unearthly green fire. ]

Monologue later. Drive them back before they get to the schools.

[ Kamen Riders. Always making a show out of defeating bad guys. ]

3

[kodomotaiyou]

[Huh. Well this was interesting. Chibiterasu stares at Shotaro making cat noises at the cat in the tree. He tilts his head a bit; what was this human trying to do exactly?]

6!

[watarudoin]

[Welcome to a creepy house in the woods. There's someone bustling about outside in a parka, on account of it being pretty cold out here.

When Shotaro shouts, a flashlight spins to cast its light on him.]

1

[electricalcurrent]

Certainly no stranger to odd getups herself, she decided to drop down to help out the bug suited guy. Since he was clearly on the right side! Of course that line. It just made her cringe.

"And I thought I was corny, Ceez."

3

[save_load]

[What's that?]

[Yup, it's another cat up in the trees. It's staring down at you with oddly blue eyes... and judging you (maybe?) for the name you're calling the other cat. Fluffer-nutter? Really?]

Philip | Kamen Rider W

[epistemophile]

3;
[Good afternoon, citizens of Venture City! Are you engaged in something especially interesting on this fine day? No? Well that's fine, too! Because regardless of what it is you happen to be doing, right now, at this very moment, a curious teenager in a bizarre getup is peering at you, a book in one hand and his chin held in the other. He observes for a handful of seconds, whether you've noticed him or not, before he grins manically and leans away.]

How fascinating.

7;
[At a hot dog stand somewhere in the city, there is a fluffy-haired Japanese American teenager in far too many layers for the weather with a foil-wrapped dog in one hand. He appears to be inspecting it rather than eating it, turning it every which way in his hand. It appears he has also been prodding the ingredients, as he has ketchup, mustard, and relish on three individual fingers that he's yet to do anything about as his hand remains suspended above the food substance.]

[He also appears to be talking to himself, or perhaps the hot dog.]

The hot dog is in fact not made of dog at all, but commonly a cooked sausage, fit between a split bun and eaten as a sandwich. It has many variations, including changing out the sausage for a corn dog-- also a sausage, dipped in corn bread and often deep fried --and covering the sausage in many condiments. A Coney Island Hot Dog involves chili sauce and often onions, and originated nowhere near Coney Island, New York, but in fact in the early 20th Century in Michigan.

[Please feel free to stop him, someone. Anyone.]

3

[gigigigigigi]

[The man in the loincloth is not sure why he's being looked at like that or what is going on, so he's just going to go on ahead and growl uncertainly at Philip.]

The Electric Current: Spark and Zapps | OC

[electricalcurrent]

3-Shopping For the Mundane

A source of no less than great frustration for Spark is that removing Zapps was nearly impossible. She required not much to live, but unfortunately Earth was missing one of those things. Pressure. Oh it had some, but it didn't have enough. But didn't stop her from putting Zapps into as subdued form as possible and going out to the market. She seemed to mostly favor bakeries and sea food stores, as if there was some significance to these. Maybe just the cuisine there was most familiar to her? Still watching someone blunder about in a robot suit and trying to haggle over fish from a supermarket like that was a common occurrence might draw some eyes.

5-Getting in is the Easy Part

Just cause she was several hundred light years from home wasn't going to stop her from being a hero. Even if that meant diving headlong into a villain's hide out with a heavy smash from Zapps. Of course this was a great way to get ambushed, but she was hoping she would get the advantage of surprise with her daring.

Of course she might have missed and landed in your living room too.

4-Alien Hero Meet and Greet

Spark found Earth absolutely fascinating, and she didn't speak like the woman from Werewolf either. Of course she took the first opportunity offered to join the Omegafriends. She was here to stop bad guys and she knew it was easier with a team. Of course she needed to figure her way around this place. Thankfully Zapps was mapping every square inch she explored. Not like she could go anywhere on Earth without him. Her definitely most awesome robot suit AI.

3;

[epistemophile]

Lucky for the pair of you, Philip is not your average teenager prone to fun-making or name-calling at unusual or startling sights. He is, in fact, quite starkly the opposite! Thus, happening upon Spark and Zapps, he stops walking as he passes them, glances sidelong and then over his shoulder, and then takes a handful of steps backward and begins to immediately appraise them. The armor was unlike anything he'd ever seen, and while he seemed to have the sense to not reach out and touch something he was not only entirely unfamiliar with but unable to conjure keywords to run a search about, he certainly appears to be entertaining the idea.

"How utterly fascinating," he mutters under his breath.

Himiko / OC

[fluffytails]

1. [Venture City in Peril! And it sure was! Apparently, the dinosaur army had attacked at the same time the Deviobots were mounting their own, equally fiendish assault! People were running in the streets while the evil armies of evil were fighting - mostly with each other.

Still, the property damage was mounting, and heroes were clearly needed.

In the middle of this mess, standing on a convenient pole (because dramatic standing is important), was a dark figure. Not only was she wearing a dark, black dress, her eyes were also as dark as night - not to mention that she was gathering a massive amount of shadowy energy in her hands, ready to blast whatever her target was!

(Feel free to take her as a hero or villain, whatever you might prefer! She was about to blast a couple Deviobots, but it'd be easy to assume she was targeting the civilians nearby, instead...)]



4.[Welcome to the Omegabase! The super-secret underground Omegabase has it all - training centers, VR simulators...

The VR Simulator was already occupied, it seemed. But whoever had done so had forgotten to lock the doors. Inside, it was set to a version of ancient Japan, on a nice summer day. Cherry blossoms filled the air near what looked like an old temple.

Someone was sleeping on the altar, enjoying the sunlight and peaceful atmosphere. One does not disturb a sleeping cat, but what about a sleeping fox?]

4

[save_load]

[There's a familiar cat trotting up to the altar, staring inquisitively at the fox]

atsuko natsume ( nuku nuku ) | all purpose cat girl nuku nuku | ota

[nyandroid]

OPTION A:

[ Even though Atsuko - or rather, Nuku Nuku, as she prefers to be called - is out doing her usual daily job after high school classes being a waitress and let's be real, almost all the boys are fawning over her because of her assets and well, her personality isn't half bad either.

If you're visiting, you might see the young teenage girl holding several plates with absolutely no problem. She'll even help out with a huge grin, willing to assist anybody who wants to order with a smile; she can memorize everyone's orders and carry them to each recipient with no problems. But how is she managing to to carry all of those plates? ]

OPTION B:

[ IT'S TIME FOR JUSTICE

Though Nuku Nuku's not exactly the type to actually hide her secret identity, her robotic ears that pop out of her head.

Let's do this. ]

Option B

[mooned_hime]

[Kaguya here is apparently a damsel in distress. There she is tied up in rope and hanging over a vat of acid while some villain is ready to do battle with Nuku Nuku]

Oh, good, you're here.

Do something about this, would you?

[She doesn't seem particularly distressed for a hostage...]
