TEST DRIVE MEME

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:

  • Manticores have been added to the bestiary!
  • Lots of people have asked good questions on the FAQ, so do take a look.
  • For the first app round only, you can app TWO characters.
  • Mod applications are open until Wednesday!
  • 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.

"Would you be saying the same thing if we were in each other's shoes?"

Damn the townspeople, damn whatever made him change, damn it all! She doesn't care at this point.

"I can't live my life if someone I care about is hurting! It's the same no matter who it happens to and I can't run away from it! Friends don't leave each other behind!"

At this point, the only way to make sure she stays is either push her into the crowd coming up or tie her up somewhere.

one quick tag before work

"..."

At this rate, it would be too dangerous for both of them if they stay longer. With an annoyed grunt, he swoops down, grabbing her by both hands before bringing her closer to his neck.

"Grab on."

This is his first flight after all, and now he's got a passenger. What a way to earn his wings. He's just thankful of how light she seems, it barely registers as he climbs up again, the townspeople starting to arrive, then takes off, carefully hiding Yukiko so she isn't spotted, least they assume the worse about her too. Where to, he's not quite sure, but away from here. Maybe into the forest nearby...
gigglesnortpriestess: (ack!)

have a tag from work

[personal profile] gigglesnortpriestess 2014-07-11 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
She yelps but not enough to make her presence known to the villagers. She did say she didn't want to leave him alone and he's more or less offering.

Yukiko nods and grabs onto the new demon, trying to keep herself from being a burden. She keeps her face buried as Yu takes off and she tries to make herself smaller so no one could spot her. But now...where would they go?

That icon is both perfect do to the wind effect and terrible cause I have an idea where its from

The large wings cast a silhouette in the sky as the figures behind them become nothing but meaningless specks.

"The sky is so calm."

The noise of the city slowly disappears, replaced by the chirps of the creatures nearby, with little light being offered by the moon overhead. He has no trouble seeing, however and flying is an amazing sensation. He feels so free...

A few minutes later, he lands at the edge, the crowd from the other part of the city probably dispersing by now, content to have chased him away. He'd return, of course. Lowly humans like that were beneath him and...no focus on your friend for now.

"I didn't have time to argue, but you'll need to go back," he tells her once he knows it's safe to talk. "You can stay in the city, and I promise I'll come visit when I can. If someone else from the Investigation Team shows up, they need to know what's happening. We have to figure out what's causing all of this."

He's...not sure if he wants to say 'and fix this'. Truth be told, he rather likes this new body.
gigglesnortpriestess: (worry)

yeah yosuke is a part of it

[personal profile] gigglesnortpriestess 2014-07-11 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
"But it's not safe in the city for any of us. The natives look at us like they know something we don't. It's like they're expecting us to do something but I have no clue what."

She's torn and he has good points but it's like whatever brought them there wanted them to suffer for some reason. There's also another reason: not wanting to be alone. How long should she need to wait in that awful place before someone does show up?
izanyagi: (That's not it)

minutes before his death tbh

[personal profile] izanyagi 2014-07-11 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
The anger boils up again.

"Then the natives will LEARN their plac--" he stops, putting a hand on his face. "--sorry. But I'm not sure if they knew or not. After all...why would they have waited until we transformed?"

It seems odd to want to start killing after.

"If you wear what they wear, you can easily pass for someone in town. The population is large enough so that not everyone knows everyone else and the other towns come to visit too. It's safer than here at night. It won't be an issue once you've..." He trailed off, not wanting to say it out loud like it could somehow stop the process. He wasn't sure if it would happen at all; maybe he was the only one with this curse...but no they'd all come here with the bites and scratches.

It would come.

welp, magicians are buttmonkeys

[personal profile] gigglesnortpriestess 2014-07-12 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
She can be oblivious at times but not stupid. They came here all marked somehow; they'll all be cursed with new forms soon enough.

"Once I turn. Isn't that what you were going to say?"
izanyagi: (Accckwaaard)

That they are

[personal profile] izanyagi 2014-07-12 11:16 am (UTC)(link)
He nods just once.

Then, as a sort of strange way to try and be supportive, he puts one of his wings over her back, the wing's tip right over her shoulder.

"We'll figure out what's going on," he repeats...just as that hunger begins again. He quickly moves a little farther away from her, the sweat on his brow evident.

"I need to go eat," he growls in a low hum. "But I can't leave you just like this. Do you think you'll be fine for an hour by yourself?"
gigglesnortpriestess: (turn my back)

[personal profile] gigglesnortpriestess 2014-07-12 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
She's not a kid. If something dangerous came up to her, she would either run or throw rocks at it. Yukiko looks up and sees that expression on his face, wanting to tell him that he could wait for food but the fact remains that he isn't human anymore. It...is for the best to not stop him before he ends up turning on her.

"I'll be alright. Just be careful?"
izanyagi: (Evil Grin (shadow))

[personal profile] izanyagi 2014-07-12 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Her permission granted, he gives out a small laugh, devoid of any humor.

"Don't worry about my safety." Worry about that of others. He places a clawed hand on her chin, giving her one final, somewhat gentle look, before turning around. The ground shook as he took each powerful step in a run, before jumping and flying off into the skies. Without thinking about it, letting the demon take over again, he roars in the sky, scanning the nearby village to see what poor soul had stupidly decided to be out and about at this hour...

...he knew it wouldn't take too long. Just one..or two...maybe three, then he'd be full.
gigglesnortpriestess: (grip)

She would worry about everyone to be honest. But she would worry about her friends much more. She watches him take to the sky and hears the roar come after, reminding Yukiko of what he has become and she can't take it lightly.

All she can do is take cover and make sure she stays alive until he gets back.
