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.
[ tim purses his lips and braces as jack smacks him. should have expected that, really, but at least he doesn't quite flinch. he wants to protest, say something along the lines of i just got here, how was i supposed to know you made more weird changes to your face, but that's...obviously useless.
and so, begrudgingly, he tries to force himself into feeling "properly" subservient. ]
Jack, sir.
[ "asshole mcgee, sir. fuckface, sir." he successfully resists. and then, swallowing any pride he has left: ]
[The answer is exactly the one he's looking for, so he simmers just enough to not be a threat to his immediate health.]
We'll uh, figure that out in a bit. By which I mean I'll figure it out, because I have to do everything around here.
[Jack glances back down and raises an eyebrow briefly, and then grins in an almost friendly manner -- if friendly also translated into horribly lecherous.]
You're actually lookin' pretty good, handsome. Color me impressed.
[ alright, awesome. tim has successfully avoided the brunt of jack's temper for now, thankfully, and so he relaxes a notch and breathes out a nearly imperceptible sigh. the lechery is preferred, but not by much at all -- it still creeps him out. he's never met someone as narcissistic as jack. ]
Yeah? I'm still fresh off of Elpis and all.
[ playing along is his best chance at not having anything terrible happen to him right now, so that's what he does. it's also his way of indicating that he's just recently arrived, though as stated before he doubts that will matter any to jack. ]
