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!
Lots of people have asked good questions on the FAQ, so do take a look.
The reserve date has been announced (it was changed to the 30th to allow a maximum number of people compared to a Friday).
Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
NEW! Players with characters already in the game can earn up to a maximum of 3 coins by replying to potential character threads! You will need to have your normal 20 comment AC in the game. You cannot use this to go over the bonus 10 coins per month total, but you can use it if you are missing some threads 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.
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.
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: You've heard about the fog, but you've never seen it before. Now, the mist surrounds you. Barely able to see before you, you need to get home - and fast. It's far too dangerous in this situation.
SCENARIO FOUR: 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.
[Shit, shit shit. This time Envy at least manages to half roll, half scramble away from the majority of the kick, though the throbbing in his face distracts him enough the toes scrap a line across his side. It makes him hiss, mostly in anger, and he reaches out for Ed's foot, trying to grab it to pull. If he can knock Ed off balance, he might be able to get back to his feet.]
[Ed curses and stumbles, though he manages to stay on his feet. He yanks his foot back out of Envy's grip and swings another kick at him, hoping to catch him before he can get back up.]
[Well, that kick knocks him flat again and Envy is really tired of being kicked. It hurts and he's not healing. Using one of Lings tricks - such a dirty cheat - Envy digs his fingers cautiously into the dirt.]
Stop kicking me, you brat!
[He then flings the dirt in the general direction of Ed's face and swings a leg around towards Ed's. He could go for a fight right now, but he knows without his abilities he's dead in the water. He just wants Ed to lay off so they can "talk". Maybe after Envy slams a fist into his face a few times in payback.]
[Ed stumbles back and holds his arms up to try and block the dirt, but some still gets into his eyes. He doesn't even have a chance to recover from that before his feet go out from under him, and he hits the ground with a heavy thud.]
[Yeah okay, the moment Ed goes down, Envy can't help but take the opportunity. Scrambling to his feet, Envy aims a kick or two at the brats side, then quickly dances back to avoid Ed pulling what he tried and grabbing his foot.]
Ready to talk now, or are we going to keep this dance up for a bit longer?!
[He's talking big, but there's an ugly bruise forming around his nose from where Ed punched him, Envy carefully touching it in disgust. It hurts like a bitch and god he hates pain. His side isn't feeling that dandy either.]
[Ed's too busy scrambling back to his feet to think about lashing out at Envy before he gets away, only letting out a pained grunt when Envy's foot connects. He's taken worse than that, even in the last two years.]
[Once he's up he backs away a few paces, still glaring and ready to fight but waiting for Envy to take the first swing.] Why the hell would I talk to you, you crazy fuck?
