TEST DRIVE SEPTEMBER EDITION

TEST DRIVE

Welcome to Ryslig's test drive meme! If you're considering apping here, this is where you can try your characters out in the game's setting. A few things to note:

• You can only app ONE character per round so choose wisely.
• We now have a Quick Game Facts that simplifies the basic information about the game. Good if you want to see what the game is at a glance!
• Ryslig's FAQ is located here, so please take a look if you have questions.
• The reserve date is 9/26.
• Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
• Players with characters already in the game can earn up to a maximum of 6 coins by replying to potential character threads! You cannot use this to go over the bonus 20 coins per month total, but you can use it to reach that coin total. Same rules as normal bonuses apply.

Sample scenarios:

SCENARIO ONE: So you've just arrived, fresh out of the hospital, and already the natives are trying to get on your good side. Offers of food, shelter and other luxuries in return for hoping you don't eat them. They even have some helpful pamphlets to share with you. "How To Deal With Changes", "Alternatives to Human Flesh", "What to Expect When You're Expecting (to turn into a monster)" are all great pamphlets. There's even some detailing certain monsters, and the changes they go through. Some of these seem to have been passed down from one monster to the next.

Among these however, are some... not so helpful ones. "Bunnyipyips And You", "Axe Thief Axehounds," and "So you're becoming a Fur Bearing Trout" among others. Sometimes they have marks on them from previous people who had them saying they are lies, or pointing out good "jokes."

SCENARIO TWO: You've become hopelessly lost in Lager Woods. Paths don't seem to lead where you remember them leading, and you feel as if you're going around in circles. Childlike giggling can be heard from no direction in particular. Suddenly, you stumble upon another character, who seems to be just as lost as you! Perhaps you can find a way out together. Or maybe they want you for lunch...

SCENARIO THREE: The time has come and you've found yourself becoming a monster. Is the change instant, or gradual? Are you familiar enough with monsters to know what's happening, or is it a complete shock? NOTE: Feel free to pick any monster type for this prompt, but note that you may not get the same one in game.

SCENARIO FOUR (New):The claws, the fangs, the pangs of hunger - horrible as they all are, it's manageable given enough time and perseverance. Local monster hunters, though, not so much.

Maybe it started with a few wayward glances on the outskirts of town, critical stares and disapproving whispers, or just the misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Whatever it was, deserved or entirely unprovoked, you're being hunted: a handful of aggressive, well-armed humans doggedly chase your trail throughout city streets and out into the open, and if you're not careful (if you don't find help soon) you might wind up as the next trophy kill claim on one of those hunter's walls.

[The first thing that comes to Yuto's mind when he spots the other is that this guy obviously doesn't realize what is happening around him. Taking a few steps closer, Yuto narrows his eyes... and realizes that he's seen this guy before.

That's right, he's...]

It's you. [He says when he's close enough for the other to hear him.

That's right. This is the guy who Yuto had interrogated about LDS's connection to Academia and protected Yuzu from. What was his name? Hm...]

oh my god so many tags what have i done to deserve this ive made my mistakes

[abysmalactor]

[Blink. Stare. Hold up a damn second.]

YOU! So, you finally show your face again after all this time, huh? What the heck do you think you're up to, attacking me and looking like my rival when doing it?! Eh?!

everybody needed a shingo in their life ~(˘▾˘~)

[darkduelist]

[Yuto gives him an unimpressed look.]

I only wanted to know if LDS is connected to Academia and you just happened to be there at that time. [Though, back then his main reason for dueling the other was protecting Yuzu... whom he mistook for Ruri. Well, it's not like that matters much now.]

I have no reason to fight you now. I have no reason to explain myself to you either.

i accept this explanation.

[abysmalactor]

LDS was built to oppose Academia, you dumbass! Us Lancers were groomed perfectly to take it down!

[Never mind that Sawatari is the only LDS student in the Lancers other than Reira, but okay. Dennis doesn't count anymore shhhhhh]

[darkduelist]

...Lancers?

[Guess what. Shun and Yuya told him nothing about Lancers. Nobody tells him anything. What is this.]

[abysmalactor]

The Lance Defense Soldiers! That's what LDS stands for-other than Leo Duel School, I guess-but! We've been trained up to the best dueling capabilities to take on Academia! And the best of the best (like me) have been sent as a core strike team to recruit in the Synchro Dimension!

[darkduelist]

...You didn't sound like you knew anything about Academia when I talked to you back then.

[Talk, interrogate. Same thing.

The look in Yuto's eyes clearly questions the other duelist's ability to fight Academia.]

[abysmalactor]

Talk?! More like you nearly murdered me back then! Geez!

[Seriously, you almost gave him a heart attack.]

[darkduelist]

Nearly murdered you? Really? [Yuto scowls.] In that case, you shouldn't even think about fighting Academia. They don't show mercy.

[Unlike him.]

[abysmalactor]

I know that! I saw it happen!

[More like he came in at the very tail end of the duel that turned Michio and Teppei into cards, and Reiji's explanation on screen, but still.]

I was different when you dueled me back then, anyway!

[darkduelist]

Is that so?

[Seeing how the other was acting just a few moments ago, Yuto sincerely doubts he realizes how dangerous Academia can be.]

[abysmalactor]

Yeah, and I can prove it, too!

[Beat.]

If I...had my...deck...

[darkduelist]

...Actually I don't have my deck either.

[So even if you had yours, no dueling would happen anyway.]

[abysmalactor]

...Tch. This stupid place...

[That totally ruined the mood, you know.]

[darkduelist]

[Sigh.]

It's not only stupid. It's also dangerous. [But obviously, you haven't realized it yet.]

[abysmalactor]

Hnh! We can handle it!

[no, he hasn't.]

[darkduelist]

[Yuto really wants to facepalm at him, but he stares instead.]

...You say that, but do you have any idea where we are and what is going to happen to us? [You don't. Of course you don't.]

[abysmalactor]

[Erk.]

Well...that is...

[No and no.]

[darkduelist]

That's what I thought.

[And here, he's going to enlighten you then.]

This isn't any of Dimensions you've heard about, but a completely different world altogether. And believe me or not, everybody change into monsters here. Literally.

Nobody knows how to leave either. Not yet anyway.

[abysmalactor]

A different dimension?! The heck are you-

[wait back up]

What was that about monsters?!

[darkduelist]

Exactly what I said. In this place everybody change into monsters eventually. And there's nothing we can do about that.

[abysmalactor]

Like...Duel Monsters?

[No.]

[darkduelist]

No.

[Like monsters that eat people. But he won't say that.]

[abysmalactor]

Eh?! Then like, actual real monsters?

[darkduelist]

[He nods.]

But it's not only a change in appearance.
