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.

[ Y E A H he did not stop to consider this. This is a problem. Especially as he has no clue but that also sounds pretty bad. He pauses to scratch his chin and thinks furiously. ]

Here, as in... here in the universe? I'm pretty sure philosophers are still divided on that issue, so, uh, tune in next week? Or next month. It might take them more than a week to come to any conclusions. [ A wince, because that. that was bad. that was a no good very bad attempt but he tried?? ]

[didntbelieve]

Stiles.

[Sorry, buddy. You didn't try hard enough.]

[figureitout]

[ SHIT. Okay, let's try this thing again, this time with 80% less "I am trying really hard to get out of trouble" in his tone. ]

Uh, so... if I said I really, honestly don't know, would you believe that? Because I really, honestly have no idea. Aside from being lost. I'm really sure about that one.

[didntbelieve]

[Stilinski sighs, running a tired hand through his hair.]

I'd believe that. I can't say I have any ideas here either.

[figureitout]

[ Stiles echoes that sigh, chewing on his lower lip, his expression turning more and more serious every passing second. ]

I was afraid you'd say something like that. [ A pause. ] Dad... this is bad. Like, the kind of bad that's beyond the usual bad and that's saying a lot. Did you see the people in the city? Because I did, and I'm sort of hoping I hadn't.

[ And now his dad is stuck here as well, and that makes the whole thing just about 10000% worse. ]

[didntbelieve]

I saw them.

[He wishes he hadn't. He wishes his son wasn't here. He knows Stiles isn't exactly a stranger to all this weird stuff. He's more familiar with it than he is by a long shot. That doesn't mean he likes how Stiles constantly finds himself in danger though.]

They didn't hurt you, right? Most of them seemed friendly, but...

[But Stiles is his son and even if they were friendly and it's not as though that's a new concept for him where monsters are concerned he still worries.]
