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.

"I need some time to think first." And there were a lot of things he had to think about. "There are these things called computers you can get. We can still talk to each other on there."

Lenus looked away, folding his arms loosely. "There are things I have to get used to first. I'm turning into a monster, you know. I don't even know how many more changes there will be. I want to be sure of that first."

Seren opened his mouth to argue, anger and worry and hurt still rubbing his heart raw. At the last second, he closed it, gritting his teeth together, and brushed past Lenus with his hands curled into fists.

"Got it," he said tightly, walking out of the trees entirely. "I'll just stay outta your way, then. Thanks for the way out."

Lenus hung his head. "I hope you don't end up understanding what I mean," he said quietly. "I really do. You don't deserve it."

He turned and walked away.

He stopped at the soft timbre of Lenus's voice and turned, but Lenus was already gone. All his anger going out of him at once, Seren slumped a bit and allowed the pain and worry he felt to show.

"Lenus..." he sighed, closing his eyes. In the dark of the woods, the shadows laughed at him.
