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.

[Sweet Christ, he's being saved by a peacock.

This is not, actually, the worst way he's been saved. For the record. But it's pretty high up there, because it really ruins your street cred when people can say, hey, weren't you the guy that the peacock had to save?]

--yeah!

[Is he? Maybe. They're definitely starting to shoot at them, Polnareff can hear the bullets pinging around them, and god, what a waste it would be to die in an alley with a peacock-man after all he's been through.]

Get down--

[Because while Michel is making a truly valiant effort of it, he's also a pretty heavy guy. They've managed to get about three feet off the ground, which isn't actually worth all that much when you're being shot at.]

[Yeah, it was a good idea, but his hooves probably stand a better chance than his wings at this point. The bullet sounds don't help his ears either and he attempts to fold them even as they move. A quick change of direction, and Eikichi manages to carry them to the other side of a nearby building. Unfortunately, those hunters just think of it as an opportunity to give chase and capture both instead of just one.]

Okay, let's not panic. I got this, I got this--

[That bullet sure came close to his face.]

HEY! DON'T MANGLE MY FACE! I JUST FINISHED PUTTING ON MY MAKEUP LESS THAN AN HOUR AGO! DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG IT TAKES TO EVEN GET MY HAIR LOOKING LIKE THIS?!

[Oh he's pissed now. For all the wrong reasons. At least he can make a very nice meat shield if they continue to shoot.]

They're not going to care about shooting your face! Can you attack with those hooves?

[He himself glances around-- there's no weapons here, nothing he could use to defend himself with. He has to rely entirely on this peacock man, and god, he's going to die here.]

[As much as they don't care about shooting his face, he takes good care of it. His right hand forms into a fist and he moves his ears listening to their footsteps get closer. Torches, swords and guns...well there's not much time to think. He puts Jean-Pierre down and moves a little farther so that the four men can seem him better - not that he's too hard to miss.]

HEY ASSHOLES! As long as Michel's here, you'll never have your way, biatch!

[That certainly gets their attention. But perhaps not as much as when his entire body begins to glow a soft blue, energy seeping from his hooves until it violently exists behind him and reforms into a creature twice his size.]

Bloody Honeymoon!

[At Eikichi's comment, the creature raises its skull bouquet in the air and the ringing of wedding bells(????) echoes around them before skeleton brides appear from thin air and create a downpour of water that not only surprises them (if the skeleton summoning other skeletons wasn't enough), but also pushes them right into a nearby wall with a sickening thud. As everything but the peacock minotaur disappears and he moves back over to the other guy his tone urgent as he keeps looking over to them.]

Let's get out of here before they come to their senses, eh?

Edited 2016-05-07 07:57 (UTC)

[Oh. A Stand. He has a Stand, that's useful-- and entirely contrary to what Polnareff thought he knew about this place, but he's not about to question it.]

Yeah.

[A momentary glance at the fallen figures-- but they seem alive, at least, which is more than they were going to allow him, so fuck it, they'll probably be all right. Polnareff jerks his head, nodding towards a side-alley, and leads the way into it.]

--thank you. Belatedly. Michel, right? I'm Polnareff.
