TEST DRIVE

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!
• Ryslig's FAQ is located here, so please take a look if you have questions.
• The reserve date is 9/26.
• Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
• Players with characters already in the game can earn up to a maximum of 6 coins by replying to potential character threads! You cannot use this to go over the bonus 20 coins per month total, but you can use it 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. Some of these seem to have been passed down from one monster to the next.

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. Sometimes they have marks on them from previous people who had them saying they are lies, or pointing out good "jokes."

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: 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.

SCENARIO FOUR (New):The claws, the fangs, the pangs of hunger - horrible as they all are, it's manageable given enough time and perseverance. Local monster hunters, though, not so much.

Maybe it started with a few wayward glances on the outskirts of town, critical stares and disapproving whispers, or just the misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Whatever it was, deserved or entirely unprovoked, you're being hunted: a handful of aggressive, well-armed humans doggedly chase your trail throughout city streets and out into the open, and if you're not careful (if you don't find help soon) you might wind up as the next trophy kill claim on one of those hunter's walls.

If the school leaders permit this, then I will have no choice but to serve.

[Please god, no.]

[abysmalactor]

Well, I don't see why they wouldn't~!

[intercalaryninja]

The mission you give and the payment must be appropriate for my skills.

[Whether he's lying, making fun or talking seriously is... again unclear.]

[abysmalactor]

I'm sure my papa can afford to pay any price, my good sir!

[Who cares. Sawatari is actually kinda looking forward to this.]

[intercalaryninja]

. . .

What would I do if I was in your father's employment?

[abysmalactor]

Hmm, that's a good question~. Bodyguard duty, perhaps?

[intercalaryninja]

[Why would you need ninjas to be your bodyguards]

Who threatens your father?

[abysmalactor]

[BECAUSE NINJAS ARE COOL, OKAY]

If the things he tells me are true, practically the whole council.

[...yeah it's not hard to see why, is it.]

[intercalaryninja]

Isn't that more in a political sense than a physical sense?

[And now he is... kind of relieved. This confirmed that the Fuuma Clan would never do business with Sawatari's family. Thanks Shingo.]

[abysmalactor]

You know...

[Huh. That actually gets him puzzling over it for some moments.]

Could be a little of both...

[intercalaryninja]

I'm sure no one will attack your father. You'd need not worry, Sawatari-san.

[abysmalactor]

Hnf! They'd have too many repercussions to fear if they even tried!

[intercalaryninja]

You're really proud of your father, aren't you?

[abysmalactor]

Why wouldn't I be?

[intercalaryninja]

No reason. It's just nice to see family members that are close.

[abysmalactor]

Hnh. Sawataris always back each other up, you know!

[You mean brag about each other. A lot. And be insufferable.]

[intercalaryninja]

It seems so.

[Yeah, he's gotten that idea]

[abysmalactor]

Sooooo maybe we don't need extra guardians! We can handle ourselves!

[great work convincing yourself of the opposite of what you were just arguing for before, genius.]

[intercalaryninja]

Good to hear of it.

[Thank you card game gods]

[abysmalactor]

Haha! Keep doing what you do, good sir! You do fine work!

[Or at least, he assumes you do. Then again, you did lose, so...]

[intercalaryninja]

[Pot calling the kettle black, I see. You lost too... thanks for that, by the way. You allowed him to escape]

My thanks.

i guess thread end?

[abysmalactor]

[Hey, he does his part.]

[intercalaryninja]

[OOC: Sure! That was really fun! Hope you do app! I'm so excited! I had so many laughs during this Rp! You're a great Neo Sawatari!]

[abysmalactor]

[ooc: aww thank you! your tsukikage is tons of fun too!]
