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 there is, nobody knows it. [Good boy, sitting still and not rambling incessantly. Makes it easy to remember why she liked him.
Well, that and his pretty face - and damn, is it pretty.] People'll tell you it's some God screwin' with us like pawns, but I've watched bandits worship car parts.
[ that's ... out of all things, not something he expected. his brow furrows at that. ]
Guess it doesn't matter one way or another though, does it? The whole thing happens, God or not, there you go.
[ he's definitely wondering about the possibilities, though. can't say he'd mind horns like nisha's. ...or anything, really -- it's going to set him apart from jack, right? jack might be irrational, but if the changes are unstoppable, does it count as a breach of contract? he doesn't want to think about jack, but if nisha's here, there's at least some buffer between the two of them. ]
Jack's gonna be pissed about all this, isn't he? The, uh, I'm not gonna look like him anymore thing.
[It's a knowing smile-- maybe even something that parallels sympathy or empathy, or Nisha's own, twisted version of it-- that's angled his way as her fingertips move towards his collar instead, smoothing it down before falling away.]
Yep.
[Real pissed. Real fast.] I mean we could always pay off the local nutjob to pick up a digital hologram from home, but getting Jack to spend the cash is gonna be a hard sell.
[ tim leans his head towards nisha's hand and lets out a brief, deliberately stilted sigh. he considers his feelings towards his boss pretty damn obvious, but bitching about it, especially to said boss' girlfriend, will do no good. so he straightens up, running a hand through his hair. ]
Ehh. It'll get figured out.
[ optimism! sort of! ... not really. even if he was the one that brought it up, tim doesn't want to think too much about the shit end of things at the moment. ]
Have any of the other vault hunters shown up here, or is it just us?
[ ...would claptrap have to deal with transforming? that would be weird. ]
