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.
[If glares could burn, Kimbley would be a roaring pyre at this very moment. Ed grits his teeth and very nearly snarls, fists balling up tightly at his sides. It's only the fact that Kimbley's transformed as he is that keeps Ed from charging in for a fight right this second, if only just.]
Really? You turn kids into bombs often enough that it's not even fucking noteworthy?
[That surprises him. He dodges out of the way, narrowly. It's only his increased speed as a wendigo that keeps him from getting knocked over by Ed. If he charges again, Kimbley's probably going to topple over.]
Can't say I do!
[He would get into a fight without Archer around.]
[He may be out of shape, but Ed's been in plenty of pub brawls in Munich that have kept his reflexes up. He shifts and moves in again, this time aiming to slam his elbow right into Kimbley's chest.]
You tried to kill my brother twice, you sonovabitch!
[The blow isn't capable of knocking the wind out of him, but it does cause Kimbley to stumble back. He lands on his tail, cursing, as he struggles to regain his balance.]
[That makes him snarl, falling backwards, onto his tail as he snarls.]
You're talking over my head here, kid.
[He speaks like he isn't getting irritated, like his noise isn't faintly bleeding and possibly broken. Funny, he didn't think he could bleed without a heartbeat.]
The last thing that happened before I came here was my "commander" shouting at me for nearly breaking my arm after getting into a fight with your brother. If he hadn't tried to protect that snake woman, it wouldn't have happened at all.

Sure, I killed some Ishbalan kids. But so did Flame-- ah, Colonel Mustang.

I fought him once.
[And for his efforts, Kimbley had cracked a rib.]
no subject
Bullshit you did! You didn't just up and forget everything that happened in Liore!
no subject
[He has no idea what Ed's talking about, and to be honest, he doesn't care.]
no subject
[Again he swings, aiming for Kimbley's nose and putting all of his strength into it.]
I saw what happened! I saw those soldiers die because your stupid commander wouldn't listen to me!
