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.
[Okay. The Doll is most certainly lost, at this point. She isn't entirely sure what snuff is, or what perverts have to do with this place at all - and is this girl doing her hair up for the purpose of a single sentence?
Junko's bizarre sense of humor is entirely lost on her. Much to the Doll's relief, though, she ends her thought in a question - one that the Doll can most certainly answer. ]
Anything else? Why, yes. Before I came to this place, I was not a human. That they would make me one is bizarre.
[ Not human. If Junko were wearing any other personality, she may have laughed at the idea. She’s never been one to particularly believe in ghosts stories, and all the horror she’s experienced and created were entirely manmade. But if wherever this was had the potential to turn something human and rise the dead from their graves, then…
Huh. Interesting. ]
I see. Not human, you say? I’ll take note of this. [ She uses her free hand to fasten her invisible glasses. ]
What were you before, then? A shitty mannequin for a gothic lolita knockoff shop? A made to order blowup doll for some tortured forty year old soul? The possibilities are truly endless.
[Again, Junko's bizarre charactizations go completely over the Doll's head. She doesn't know what "gothic lolita" is, either, and she certainly isn't familiar with the term 'blowup doll,' so the Doll is just gonna give Junko a completely blank, dead-eyed stare until she stops talking.]
I am sorry, I... do not understand what you mean. I was a doll, yes.
[There's a long, heavy pause, and then she unknowingly gives Junko even more ammunition.]
Gehrman is... troubled, yes, but I believe he is much older than that. And I was used by many Hunters, not just him.
[ The Doll’s words are probably the worst thing she could have possibly said… it's almost kinda cute. Junko knows judging by her demeanor she most likely knows no better, but she’s not going to pass up an opportunity as sweet as this. ]
O… oh my gosh! This is way more scandalous than I thought! You really are that kind of doll? Aaaa, I knew it… you had that sort of vibe, but then again, how would I know that? Maybe I’m not as pure as I once thought I was! I’m getting all sweaty just thinking about it!!
[ She babbles on, completely caught up in herself for a few more moments before calming down. Sorta. ]
Poor thing, only existing to be passed around like that! Junko will teach you the despair of human existence… while it lasts, at least! Upupupu!
[It really was, not that the Doll understands that. All she understands is that she told Junko her role and... suddenly the girl became excited? Or upset, perhaps.]
Do not fret, young one. I am sure you are still quite pure.
[She can't sense the blood of others yet, but Junko doesn't have any outward transformations, at least. That's what Junko meant by 'pure,' right? She's helping??]
The humans do despair, yes. I have seen this myself. [Maybe not in this place, so much, but she's quite used to seeing traumatized and broken humans in the Hunter's Dream.] I try to help them in what ways I can, however.
