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.

[That's a relief, because Jimmy likes seeing his new friend smiling more than he does frowning.]

Well, I went to the moon, like I said! Did you know there's moon-monsters living up there on the moon, cause I sure didn't! They're really cool!

[neetfreak]

[oh, yes! Jimmy did say that! but Jyushimatsu had been distracted. he still kind of is]

Moon-monsters? And you weren't scared?

[awesmazings]

No way! I mean, there's people just like that down in Miseryville too, so it actually wasn't all that different...makes me wonder how they got up on the moon like that, though!

[Maybe Lucius got mad at them and had them blasted into space? He wouldn't be surprised.]

[neetfreak]

[what a name for a town! Miseryville. this poor kid!]

I've heard of the rabbit in the moon, and the man in the moon, but never the monster in the moon! I hope someday I'll get to go to the moon too! [then he can be the Matsu in the moon!]

[awesmazings]

That'd be super cool, wouldn't it? If you went to space once, then maybe you'll get to go again!

[Of course, that involves...not being HERE, first.]

So, what's your home like, Jyushimatsu?

[neetfreak]

[they are far from the docks now, heading back toward town] Mm, I would say my home was normal, but it doesn't have monsters! I live in a place called Japan! It's really big, and kind of noisy!

[awesmazings]

[....what's a Japan.]

Woooah, I've never heard'a Japan before! It sounds really cool! You don't got any monsters at all?

[neetfreak]

Well, I mean... I guess we have monsters! Like Mothra and Godzilla! But they're not real.

[awesmazings]

They sound rad though! What else does Japan have, if you guys don't have monsters?

[neetfreak]

[what else does Japan have... what doesn't it have? that's a pretty broad question! Jyushimatsu thinks for a moment. and then he answers with]

Robots. We have cool robots!

[of all the things he could have said...]

[awesmazings]

[Jyushi...]

Robots?! Really?? Japan sounds like one of the coolest places ever!

[neetfreak]

It's okay, I guess! It's a lot different from this place...
