JANUARY TEST DRIVE MEME

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 01/29.
  • 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: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.

[His screaming stops, as he had lifted his head to get a good look at who yelled at him and who was no doubt going to end his life but... he's quite shocked to see that it wasn't a monster at all.]

...

[Tears are staining his cheeks and he looks absolutely pathetic as he was prepared to beg for his life just a moment ago, but he straightens up hastily and takes a step back, his expression now extremely embarrassed.]

S-Sonia-san...?! [Awkward....]

[ OH...IT'S SOUDA. Sonia relaxes a fraction, even if he's not exactly her favorite person to see usually. While she might call him her stalker or regret not being able to vote for him (hella rude, Sonia), she's never felt that Souda would actually cause her any harm. Especially considering what they'd last done together. ]

Ah...Souda-san. [ Try being a little more enthusiastic, princess - but still, it actually is good to see one of the others. ] If it is you, then we only have to find the other three, no? I wonder if they, too, are lost in these woods.

[ At least she isn't alone any longer! Even if she's the one of the pair who is more likely to have actual training in how not to die in a fight...whoops. ]

[Bring harm to her, no but hang around like an awkward lost puppy? P...probably, lets be real.

Either way, he's definitely more relaxed now even though Sonia's reaction is less than pleased with the circumstances -- but her just being there is enough to calm him down, and he gives her a big smile now.]


Do you wanna look for them together? Though we might end up getting even more lost, just the two of us... [wouldnt u like that souda]


...b-but wait, why are you lost in the first place, Sonia-san? A princess like you shouldn't be wandering around in creepy, old woods like this by yourself! What if you got attacked by one of the monsters...?!

[ At least she's used to his following her around, even if she's not always a fan. For the time being, she's not going to just ditch him in the woods...even if he isn't her favorite classmate, he is still A Classmate. ]

If that is how it is, why was Souda-san here, either? [ YOU'RE JUST AS SUSCEPTIBLE TO ATTACKS - oh she's sort of flushing and glancing aside. ] I had heard stories of the most marvelous talking plants in this region, but I have not found any...and I think my explorations ought to cease since it is quite dark now.

[ man eating plants, where art thou ]

Looking for the others together is an acceptable plan, though. Do you happen to have any sort of compass or watch on your person, Souda-san?
eggcream: (④ It feels like I’ve been hit)

[HE'S PROBABLY GONNA BE THE FIRST TO GO OUT OF THE ENTIRE CAST how did he make it to survivor pool, no one will ever know.]

A compass or watch? [He looks thoughtful for a moment, before beginning to rummage through his pockets.]

Yeah, I think I should still have that Swiss Army Knife Komaeda gave-- [...his pockets are completely empty.]

...th-that was only part of the simulation, huh? [Well.] W-we can get out of here some other way, Sonia-san! Like uh.. isn't there that thing about moss? How it grows on the north side of trees?

[He walks over to a tree with a sort of fake confidence, and looks it over for a moment before spotting some moss on it.]

Yeah! If we just follow the moss, we can find our way out! Right?
