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.

They're not afraid of you. In fact, I believe they want to make you their next meal.

[ The voice comes from a man whose form is hidden by the shadow of the tree he leans against. Hair can seen trickling down his shoulders to his waist, arms crossed against his body as he shakes his head. Whatever he shakes at, it isn't certain, but his words are clearly directed toward Subaki. ]

However you got here, I feel sorry for you, but perhaps I can assist you.

[ The only clear way that Subaki would know that this individual's eyes were closed until this point, is when they do open and in the darkness shine two red, blinking hues. ]

Will you come closer?

[ His tone is whimsical and light-hearted. At the least, it's genuine. ]

Is that so? I can't say I find that reassuring.

[Honestly, he'd prefer scared locals or children to that. Not that he can't protect himself. Subaki's unarmed but he still has military training behind him. He shifts to a more guarded stance as he hears the man. He carefully steps about a foot closer.]

If you can point me in the right direction I would be grateful.

[He's smiling openly but there's a wariness to his voice.]

Mm. That will be difficult. This forest is treacherous, you will need a guide. Thankfully, the nose knows best while the eyes may lie.

[ And he gently pushes off of the tree. In front of Subaki, a man with long white hair and two doggy ears peeking through the top of his head. A long tail, curly and fluffy, softly wagging behind him. While his appearance is pretty innocuous, the sharp and wicked claws on his hands are not.

Humanoid, but far from human.

Kogitsunemaru can't help but smile at Subaki. His reaction will be interesting, for sure... ]

So, will you follow me?

[He hadn't seen such creatures up close but he tries to keep himself looking calm. That doesn't mean his heart doesn't start to beat a little faster.]

I will.

[Subaki's not completely trusting. He'll fight back if he has to.]

[ He's a little taken aback at the... is that fear? Or is Subaki just nervous? It's hard to tell, but Kogi's not afraid of being direct. ]

You know, I didn't think anyone could be frightened by a small dog like me, but I promise. I swear upon my master's name and the smith who once forged me, I won't let harm come to you.

[ Kogi bows, hands folded on top of each other as he does so. ]
