TEST DRIVE MEME

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.

Furred Terran piscine lifeforms do not concern me, [Worf admits, hiking up his crossed arms a little in a show of solidarity. He looks down on the Gem, noting the strange forehead formation she bears. Too elegant to be a misshapen Ferengi, though her voice matches... and of all of the other humanoids that Worf has encountered, few fit the bill for her coloration and temperment. A new life-form, then.

...With the gamma quadrant open to exploration again, that's not entirely surprising. Still, it would only be appropriate to ask.] Who--and what--are you?

[ Pearl makes a weirdly strained face and freezes up for a second. It's such a simple question, and yet it's strangely difficult for her to answer. She hasn't had much call to casually introduce herself to other people in the last few, uh... decades... centuries? and even when she has had to, Garnet is usually the one to take the lead, and the rest of the team would just chime in with their names.

Also there's something about the way Worf poses the question that makes her feel like he's looking for more than just a name and a handshake, and that throws her off a bit. ]

Me?! Wh..uaahhahaha, why, I'm a Gem warrior! [ She says, sticking her nose up, delicately placing a hand over her chest whilst looking fairly proud of herself. ] And you would be...?
