TEST DRIVE : MAY 2016 EDITIOIN

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 MAY 20ST 12:01AM EST.
  • There is an Enable Me / App this Plz to see what some people are offering or would love to play.
  • 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, and already SOME 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."

Then there's the people who aren't happy to see you at all. Glares and silent, judging stares if you're lucky. Torches and pitchforks attempting to drive you out of the town if you're not. You may need a friend to help you.

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.

I fucking wish it was a cult, mate-hell I used to be a god myself and I never heard of shit quite like this....

Nah, it's more that whoever she is she's got the power and stones to grab everyone and fuck around with them-whether she's a literal god or not.

[Reading is a new question though, and he takes a few minutes to blink it out.] About her?

[Hrm.] ...Your guess is as good as mine at this point-most of the lot here treat her more like some sort of fable, you know? She's not going to come up in any of those things... ...but she's bloody good at covering her tracks to get rid of whatever's incriminating...

Is it coming here?! I wanna see!

[ He tugs at Tuffnut's shirt in a "please" kind of gesture. ]
liquidbaby: (10)

[personal profile] liquidbaby 2016-05-17 09:58 am (UTC)(link)
And you'll play with me here too?

[ He really wants to play with him. ]
tiredofthis: (Okay?)

[Hers is probably less painful. It kind of makes her feel a bit guilty for complaining when some people are growing extra arms and legs.]

Subaki? Did I saw that right? [It doesn't sound English.] Yeah, definitely would have preferred a better meeting place. [Stopping, she takes a look around.]

It's strange, huh? Finally turning into one of them.

[personal profile] tiredofthis 2016-05-17 11:06 am (UTC)(link)
Gods paying attention? Sorry, I'm not following.

[She is new, after all.]
tiredofthis: (Default)

I was excited to see an Until Dawn cast here at Ryslig!

[personal profile] tiredofthis 2016-05-17 11:09 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, lucky me. [In contrast to Chris' joking tone, Sam sounds deadpan, even if she's joking too.]

Ew, gross. [Vegan here.] I know somebody who probably didn't get invited to a lot of birthday parties.
not_just_a_prank: (so young)

ITS OKAY WE'RE ALL SuPER BUSY /HUGS

[personal profile] not_just_a_prank 2016-05-17 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Chris and Ashley are here? Really? [Even if Ashley had been part of the prank, she was only looking on, and she was far at the back of her mind. Both of them were still her friends, and after the ordeal she had gone through, she wanted to see them again.] Heh... I guess you are what you eat, huh?

[The hand that meets Sam's is elongated and boney, nails already proper claws. They're probably the closest to being a wendigo out of all her parts so far] ... Thank you, Sam. Really... I have nowhere to go anymore so going with you... it'd be perfect anyway.

[She doesn't want to go either. She wants to be with her friends, and even without her siblings, it would be enough to have those precious people back with her again.]
tiredofthis: (Okay?)

*HUGS TIGHTLY*

[personal profile] tiredofthis 2016-05-17 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, they've been here for a little while. I just came last month, which is why I only look like a plant from the neck up. Hannah, they'll be so happy to see you. We've missed you so much.

[For a moment, something sad runs across Sam's face. Especially Josh. The look isn't allowed to stay, however. Instead, she keeps pulling.]

Where have you been staying until now? I can't believe I've been here a month and haven't seen you.
not_just_a_prank: (understand)

[personal profile] not_just_a_prank 2016-05-17 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't been here long too... I've only been here a month as well... which is why... I don't know. Which is why I probably can't tell what I am just yet. [That's a lie. She doesn't know what it's called, but she knows she's becoming the thing that had chased her and Beth to the cliffside. The giant, gaunt creature that had petrified her so badly, and was the last sight of the surface she had before ending up in the mines.

Hannah misses that sad face and she laughs a little, following along with the continual pulls. She had missed this. She had missed Sam taking charge. She had missed smiling and laughing with her.]


The hospital here, in Bavan. When I fell down in the mines, I broke my leg. I thought it would be broken still, so I went to the hospital, turned out that it had somehow healed. I ended up staying there helping the medical staff as an assistant... but when I started transforming yesterday, I decided to leave and try find somewhere else to stay.
2crack: (dizzy)

[personal profile] 2crack 2016-05-17 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, uh. I don't... know.

[Sorry, kid. They weren't exactly a packaged deal.]
liquidbaby: (15)

[personal profile] liquidbaby 2016-05-17 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[ His face falls. He wanted to meet the dragon too. ]

Okay.
orwhatever: (less wise than you are now)

[personal profile] orwhatever 2016-05-17 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Y'know, the whole--

[Well, she was allowed to ignore it for long enough, she'll let him do the same.]

Nevermind. Though I'm super glad to hear you don't want to eat bear hearts. Probably more trouble than they're worth to get anyway. [Considering she is technically a bear herself...] Let's go get you a sandwich then.
pilotus: (( 08 ))

[ His confidence in getting the hell out of here hasn't wavered, not really, but it is easier to believe in that chance when he knows he's not going to be doing it alone.

Poe grins at the first part of Finn's news, the knowledge that Rey was not only alright but also had apparently broken herself out, even with Kylo Ren there as her jailer. ]


Yeah... I haven't seen BB-8, either. Or my X-wing. [ Which is just about the weirdest thing, because he was in there before waking up here... and there were no signs of a crash-landing. There's a low edge of worry in his tone, concern mixed with bemusement, even anger, because someone, something caused this. And he's had just about enough of waking up on strange planets with no one else he knows around.

These thoughts are brought to a freezing halt by Finn's words, the world around them seeming to stop for a heartbeat.

We lost Han Solo.

No. No way. No, that's not- ]
No. The General... she's lost enough. Not him, too. [ Granted, Poe never really knew Han that well; when he joined the Resistance, Han was already back to his smuggling ways... but that doesn't mean he doesn't feel the loss.

After a pause, after passing his palm over his eyes, he breathes out words, quiet and seething. ]


... tell me you got him back. [ Tell him Kylo Ren didn't just walk away from that. Tell him that pile of bantha shit will blow up along with Starkiller Base. ]
noasark: (someone kill me again)

[personal profile] noasark 2016-05-17 07:49 pm (UTC)(link)
The one who brought us here calls herself the 'Fog God'-whether you believe any divinity is involved or not, she absolutely has power, and she's used it to not only spy on what's said through the devices, but contact others as well.

So if you find anything you want to keep from our captor's eyes, guard it well.
2crack: (fear)

[personal profile] 2crack 2016-05-17 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know. I miss them already.

[He sighs, leaning back on the bench.]

But if they can bring us they can bring them, right? Maybe I can ask about it.
liquidbaby: (5)

[personal profile] liquidbaby 2016-05-17 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Them?

[ What is this he's hearing? There's more than one of them? ]

That would be awesome.
titularly: (than literally anyone else in my life)

[personal profile] titularly 2016-05-17 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Osomatsu's mischevious grin shifts into a more curious look, and he pauses for a moment with his gaze towards the sky.]

Me?

[Lets see... powers... powers.... what has he done with them recently beyond running around asking for money--]

Oh! I can shapeshift, too!

[He says that with a smile again, and leans towards his little brother.]

Wanna see?
neetfreak: (umpire)

[personal profile] neetfreak 2016-05-17 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[ooh! Jyushimatsu claps his hands eagerly] Yeah, show me, show me!
titularly: (the correct answer is always af)

1/5

[personal profile] titularly 2016-05-17 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Osomatsu gets to his feet then, taking a couple steps back from his brother.]

Prepare yourself, Jyushimatsu!

[Suddenly, he raises his arms above his head, and begins to raise his voice as well.]

Because... here... I.... gooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO--

titularly: (text from ch000ch @ twitter) ("nice i'll def check that out")

[personal profile] titularly 2016-05-17 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[He stops, for dramatic effect.]
titularly: (WE DEM BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)

[personal profile] titularly 2016-05-17 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

[As he roars, his form starts to shift like he says and pretty soon he's... he's...!]
titularly: (text from ch000ch @ twitter) (to whoever is scooping ingredients)

[personal profile] titularly 2016-05-17 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Turned into.. a small, fluffy red panda.]

So? Whaddya think?

[He whips his tail around a couple times, to show his excitement.]

Pretty cool, right?!

I bet one would be as big as my head! [He holds his hands about a foot apart, trying to imagine the size of an actual bear heart.] I think I could eat a whole one. If I wanted to, I mean. Which I don't. Or do I?

[He looks thoughtful. He's never eaten the heart of anything, so it could be a new experience.]

What if it's a bear heart sandwich. Do you think they make those?

[with all that build-up, Jyushimatsu was expecting something giant, like a big monster! but instead, Osomatsu has changed into something adorable.

well, most people might be let down by this, but Jyushimatsu is enthralled. he coos, reaching down to try and pet Osomatsu]
Awww! Fluffy niisan! [he just wants to pick Osomatsu up and cuddle him! but he can't really hold things at night] You're so cute!
