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.

Better than no rundown at all.

[A little information at least gave something to build on, but he'd recognized none of the names he'd been handed. And she didn't seem to be familiar with them either. Beck rakes a hand through his hair, frowning.]

Yeah. I don't remember it though, or falling in for that matter. I'd wondered what was on the other side of the sea, but I never thought it'd be so ...

[He pauses, squinting upwards against the light.]

... Bright. Where are you from? Maybe we'll at least recognize home if we hear it. I'm from Argon City.

[For a moment, she considers just telling him where she's from.

Thankfully, the smarter part of her realizes That's probably not a good idea. So she lies.
]

I.. I don't remember.

[A bad lie, but it's the best she can do while on the spot.]

[Honesty probably would have been better. Beck wouldn't have recognized it, that's for certain. And he wouldn't be studying her with that look of dawning alarm that he is right now.

Loss of memory is bad. It meant glitches. It meant eventually forgetting everything.]

You should go back to those 'doctor' people. Right now, before you lose anything else. Maybe they can keep you from forgetting anything else. Come on.

[He'll take her himself, in fact. Someone already glitching might go stray within minutes, nevermind entire cycles. What if she forgot where she was even going and wandered off and got derezzed?]
