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.

Grillby | UNDERTALE

one

[What, did somebody light a fire- no, wait. Judging by the swarm of people, it looks like a newcomer.

A very strange newcomer.

He's. Made of fire, and has no face, and seems to be taking the whole thing very calmly- or maybe he's just stunned into silence and has no face to express himself, but he's reading over the pamphlet titles. At least the humans here seem hospitable. Grillby knows he's very far from home, and going back doesn't seem like an option right now, so he might as well get used to this place.

Lord, someone help the poor man. He didn't live several millennia and become a bartender for this.]

[Yes, monster changes. A strange thought, because he already was a monster, a fire elemental to be exact- maybe that's why he wasn't to prepared for when it was his turn. He shouldn't have stayed out tonight. And then he felt pricks down his spine, his limber fingers itching to sharpen- he'd turned into beasts before. Fire is malleable. He knows this feeling and he knows he's going to stay that way this time. So he drags himself to the edge of the forest when he does.

Only downside, he's still made of fire. He's a blazing beacon in the fog, shaped like a gargoyle. Lying on the ground, because this hurts like hell he has a massive headache and his arms are sore, his back is hurting like an old man's he IS an old man and almost his entire anatomy has shifted. Maybe he's got it better, having no bones nor flesh to twist like so many of the humans here.

What the hell. He's still wearing his glasses and bowtie.]


four

[Being a beacon of light is not helping him in the slightest, but being made of fire is. Most of the bullets whizzed through him, but he's lucky none of them hit the solid core in his chest. That's what he has to protect. He needs to keep it safe, or he'll die.

He's running, lord, is he running, and he can only hope to find a secluded, hidden patch of sunlight where he can hide and stop glowing until nightfall again.]
