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.

[ He's just a kid, Poe thinks with a pang, the human-turned-snake that he is here to help. These hunters... they don't even care if the one they're after is an adult or just a child. As long as they look different, they're all the same.

And okay, so maybe Poe isn't fully changed, maybe he can't do the same things as the kid can (and hey, he's doing well so far; Poe would commend him for how well he takes out the guys going for him if he wasn't tied up with the rest), but that doesn't mean he can't fight.

With a quick kick, he's back in the air, smooth and fast like he belongs; it is easy to swoop down on one of the hunters, grab the gun strapped to his waist and using it as a baton, hitting the guy on the head with it -- one quick strike and he's down. ]

Doing alright so far! You seem to be handling it--

[ Whoops, time to cut the sentence short in favour of rising up in the air again, high enough to be out of reach from the two remaining hunters... but if he remains still for too long, he's done for. One of the men is reaching for their weapons; time to think of something, and fast. ]

[pundulum]

[There's not much he can do about the guy aiming at Poe... he has his coils full with the two he's captured, but he'll at least shout a] - Look out!

[Just in case, you know. But it's all he can do to hold these two off... his heart is pounding, fearful, and not entirely for his own sake. He doesn't want to crush them, but his coils tense in response to their counterattacks beneath him, even without weapons. The one he grabbed with his tail is trying to twist his wound to get free.]

Ngggh... stop!

[It's no good, he can't keep eye contact with one of them long enough to freeze them without losing focus on the second one... his body thrashes in frustration. The man beneath him grunts in pain, getting roughed up by its unpredictable lashing. Unfortunately, his tail finally loosens from the pain, freeing the other one who rushes for the gun. He points it at the naga, triumphantly.

"Gotcha now, viper!"

But unfortunately, he can't aim without looking at him... Yuya snaps his head up to make eye contact, finally arresting him in place. The man doesn't move, but his finger is above the trigger... Yuya's shaking in fear, but he carefully wraps up the battered body beneath him as he keeps eye contact. As long as no one from Poe's half of the fight interferes, this man will turn to stone with that gun in his hand. His heart is racing. Will he pull it off, or will he die like this?]

I won't let you kill me... I don't want anyone to die...!
