MARCH TEST DRIVE MEME

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 MARCH 25th 12:01AM EST.
  • There is an Enable Me / App this Plz to see what some people are offering or would love to play.
  • 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, and already SOME 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."

Then there's the people who aren't happy to see you at all. Glares and silent, judging stares if you're lucky. Torches and pitchforks attempting to drive you out of the town if you're not. You may need a friend to help you.

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: 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.

[You know, it wasn't every day that Bucky heard someone screaming out in the woods. Usually they were quiet and peaceful.

Lumbering over in his polar bear form, metal arm and black fur around his eyes included, he peered through the bushes in Russel's direction.]


You're going to break something if you keep doing that.

[Whatever he was expecting, it wasn't a voice coming from a giant white bear of all things-- and with what looked to be automail, no less. He hadn't thought they had prosthesis like that here, especially ones made for bears.]

I know what I'm doing. [No he doesn't.] I'm trying to find the way out.

[Which has been considerably harder than it should be. Seriously, what is up with these woods?]
cryogenics: (☣ Eyes only for you.)

Uh-huh.

[Bucky didn't sound very convinced. He knew what being lost looked like. He'd gotten lost in these woods at first, too. But now he'd spent so long in them he knew them like the back of his hand.]

You won't find it up a tree.
bioalchemic: (Someday we may all be happy)

Well I was trying to get to a vantage point.

[Don't you sass him you. Giant bear thing. Okay maybe talking back to the thing that can eat him isn't a great idea.]

If you know the way back, I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
cryogenics: (☣ A fallen hero.)

[Bucky would sass whoever he pleased.]

That's dangerous.

[At least, when you didn't have claws or a cybernetic arm like Bucky did.]

I know the way out to Bavan. I can show you.
