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.

[Right, he's so awful...]

Oh- nice to meetcha, Takumi. My name's Jimmy.

Thanks for helping me, by the way. I dunno...how easy it's gonna be to walk for a while.
tacomeme: (Ponytail)

[Takumi stalks around Jimmy a few times, clearly sizing him up]

I think I could carry you.

[... Takumi, even with his bird legs, is almost half a foot shorter then Jimmy]
awesmazings: (☼ that David played)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2016-05-20 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[...yeah, somehow that seems like it's going to be a bit of a problem.]

...are you sure?
tacomeme: (Attentive)

[personal profile] tacomeme 2016-05-21 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
[He snorts and actually smiles, breaking up his sour disposition and actually looking friendly finally]

Easily. You're tall but you're what, 120lbs? 130 tops I bet.

awesmazings: (☼ is time)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2016-05-21 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Something like that, I guess!

[Jimmy shrugs, lifting one foot, then the other, shuddering when he feels his wings suddenly twitch against his back again.]

But I'd really appreciate the help, Takumi.
tacomeme: (Happy)

[personal profile] tacomeme 2016-05-21 07:12 pm (UTC)(link)
[He looks a little surprised, then puffs out his chest, the little...crest? Puff? Whatever of hair at the top of his head even fans out- proving it's not actually hair at all anymore]

Well good, last thing I need to deal with is another unappreciative Nohrian.

[Never mind that that's gibberish to his new companion]
awesmazings: (☼ and all the gods)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2016-05-21 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[...sure, whatever you say, Taco.

Jimmy stretches his arms, trying to ignore the ache in his hands from where his new claws grew in.]


I just need to get back to town, really...I don't think Bavan's too far from here.
tacomeme: (Arms crossed)

[personal profile] tacomeme 2016-05-21 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Not too far, I can manage it.

[He opens his wings, getting a few good flaps before taking off... then swooping back around to pick Jimmy up under the shoulders/arms.

With his big ass taloned feet]


Try not to wiggle too much, okay?
awesmazings: (☼ the fifth)

[personal profile] awesmazings 2016-05-22 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Woah-!

[Jimmy can't help but jerk a little when Takumi suddenly swoops in and grabs him like that, but somehow he manages to keep from squirming too much.]

I'll try!
tacomeme: (Arms crossed)

[personal profile] tacomeme 2016-05-23 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs a little, his monster instincts wanting him to dig his talons in and tear Jimmy's arms off... but he resists]

Try using your wings- might as well get some practice in.
