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.
[Hawke would like to say that she knows these woods inside and out by now, since technically it falls under her territory, as the current owner of the castle nearby. She'd like to say that, but that would be lying, because in truth she's been walking in circles for two hours.
She's beginning to think she should've brought a ball of yarn along, really.
To Morrigan, Hawke might seem very monstrous--what with the horns, and the draconic wings, and the claws, and the purple scales creeping up her neck and down her arms like a bad rash. She gives a fanged yet friendly smile when she steps into view, makeshift staff in hand.]
I don't know, I think a nice round of hide and seek wouldn't be so bad. [A little head-tilt.] You're new. What brings you to these woods?
[Morrigan meets the smile with a suspicious glare, the very picture of unfriendliness. She didn't expect another person at all, so, as she doesn't expect any helpfulness from strangers, she offers the monstrous stranger only suspicion.]
I do not see the appeal in cities, and we shall leave it at that. [As if she's explaining to a stranger anything about herself. She still doesn't really know the difference between a city and a town, it's all the same to her.]
You are lost, as well? Then 'tis true this forest has a mind of its own.
Suit yourself. The cities here aren't as bad as the city I'm used to. [Ah, Kirkwall. What a shithole.
She kind of misses it. She sticks the bladed end of her staff into the ground and leans on it, eyes looking Morrigan up and down. She's definitely new--in general, not just to Lager Woods--and also rather caustic. That's fine, Hawke can be friendly enough for the both of them.] Apparently it also has a sense of humor, if the occasional giggling's anything to go by.
Was that not you? I was sure the forest jester was roaming around laughing at her own jokes. [Rude!!! Morrigan you just met her. Is this any way to make a first impression.] Just as likely some demon has taken its place among these trees and has caught us in its trap.
[She calls out to the supposed demon.] You may show yourself to gloat now, or whatever it is you do! [In response, only silence, a pause, and then more distant giggling.] Yes, what a laugh, indeed.
