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.

[Yew, to his credit, manages more of a squeak than a scream and doesn't climb up the tree to escape...whatever. It's a near thing, but he succeeds in keeping just enough of his cool to keep his pride intact.]

N-no, that's okay!

[Ahahaha, so it was just this guy! Just this guy! Nothing to be afraid of after all! See? Nothing to worry about at all!]

So, um, that was you laughing? Right? Right?

[Because he doesn't want to think about the alternative.]

[He coughs slightly, trying to keep the light blush from rising to his face.]

Can't say it was.

[But it was him who had made that sudden thud sound a few moments back, judging by the smudges of dirt on his armor. Not that he'd admit to such a thing.]

Then...

[Yew feels an icy chill run down his spine. If it wasn't this guy, then it had to be...]

Um...I don't suppose you know who is was?

[PLEASE KNOW WHO IT WAS. His heart can't take this.]

[Sorry, by the confused look on Subaki's face it's obvious that he doesn't.]

I thought you might know.

No, I don't know!

[This is terrible. He shudders and curls into a little ball at the foot of the tree. He can hear the giggling in the distance, which is saying something because he's kind of surprised he can hear anything over the sound of his teeth chattering.]

You don't suppose it's...g...gh...ghosts, do you?

[Anyone else might have laughed at the poor fellow but he shakes his head.]

No, I don't believe it's ghosts. They might be someone playing a prank.

R-right? Right! It must be! It's just someone playing a prank! That's all!

[He brightens and manages a sunny smile. That has to be it! It's a little mean-spirited, of course, but maybe it's just someone who lives in the forest having a little laugh at their misfortune and sooner or later that someone will show up and show them how to get out!

That...has to be it...

The smile lasts until the next peal of ethereal laughter echoes through the treetops, flitting from one side of the path to the other over their heads as if branches and leaves are no impediment at all.

Yew squeaks and curls back into a ball.]

Why doesn't it sound like someone playing a prank?
