TEST DRIVE MEME

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: The State of the Game Discussion produced a lot of great suggestions and we now have a post for Plot Suggestions and Monster Questions. The NETWORK VOTE results are in and PRIVATE MESSAGING will be added some time in November. Lots of people have asked good questions on the FAQ, so do take a look. You can only app ONE character per round so choose wisely. Reserve and application dates have been announced. Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample! Sample scenarios: SCENARIO ONE: You've just been released from the hospital in Vandare and no one really seems to know what to do with you. The locals offer polite advice but don't seem to want to spend a lot of time with you. You and the other new arrivals stick out like sore thumbs, so perhaps one will spot you wandering about town. 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. 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.

And if this is anything like the labyrinths I'm familiar with, it can go fuck itself. [ He mutters that mostly to himself. But seriously, fuck labyrinths. Screw this whole place, and double screw it for making him think for a while that he was just stuck in that same labyrinth again. For making him think that if he played the game right, he'd get to go home again. There is no game, though, other than survival. ]

I passed by here too. Are you saying there's some kind of logic to how this place works? Because I can't figure it. The paths I try to turn down sometimes look like the one I just left.

I'm not saying anything of the sort. [ Because she agrees, this forest doesn't seem to be following any form of logic; it's impossible for her to somehow have doubled back to this location when she'd been following a straight line since she left it. ] Simply that maybe there's something here that won't let us leave, or doesn't want us to.

Wouldn't dealing with that be the surest way out, in that case?
