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.
[Amelia steps out of the bushes completely, stretching her blue wings to their full width, and holds up her own hands reassuringly.
Then she notices blood remains on some claws. Oops. She'd almost forgotten what it's like to have human eyes but the other girl won’t notice, right, who'd notice small red specks on dark claws in this light… let's just act normal!]
If you're lost, I can show you the way out. I know those woods pretty well.]
[She's lucky that Jade's too focused on the wings and the fact that she has claws at all, to notice anything on them. She's also out right staring at Amelia by now. Somehow the fact that this new person is acting so normal, makes her even more disturbing. But, Jade figures she'd rather be out of the forest than trapped in it with this crazy new person.]
You really know the way out? You're not just screwing with me?
[Good thing Amelia doesn't mind the staring. She's self-conscious about a lot of things in her monster form, but looks isn't one of them. It's only natural to be shocked, especially since this girl has "new arrival" written all over again.
No, staring is fine. It's the question she doesn't appreciate.]
Of course not! [She wrinkles her nose.] What kind of jerk would do that?
[Jade sighs slightly. Yeah, this girl was definitely too friendly, but she also seemed to be Jade's only help out of the forest, and that was the priority right now. She might regret it later, but Jade was ready to accept Amelia's help.]
Look, there's a lot of jerks in this world. You really know the way out? You're really gonna help me?
[Amelia is slightly annoyed at the attitude, but mostly she feels sorry for Jade. Having so little faith in other people is just sad! Clearly she needs more than directions – she needs friendship.
(Yes, Jade is probably going to regret it later)]
Of course. It's only natural to help each other.
[She takes a couple steps away from the bushes. To show the way, but also to get Jade away from the deer.]
[Jade gives her the a suspicious look. She really, really hopes this girl doesn't want to be friends or something like that. Jade has no plans to make friends. She's got to get home and back to her friends. Well, friend and classmates, she's not sure she'd consider them all her friends.]
Let's, uh, go.
[Jade may not want to be friends, but she doesn't want to piss off the girl with giant claws and she really wants out of this forest. She can accept this one friendly offer.]
