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:
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.
Test drive meme threads can be used for your roleplay sample!
NEW! Players with characters already in the game can earn up to a maximum of 3 coins by replying to potential character threads! You will need to have your normal 20 comment AC in the game. You cannot use this to go over the bonus 10 coins per month total, but you can use it if you are missing some threads to reach that coin total. Same rules as normal bonuses apply.
Sample scenarios:
SCENARIO ONE: So you've just arrived, fresh out of the hospital, and already 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.
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.
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: You've heard about the fog, but you've never seen it before. Now, the mist surrounds you. Barely able to see before you, you need to get home - and fast. It's far too dangerous in this situation.
SCENARIO FOUR: 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.
[ oikawa starts at suddenly being poked, jumping back about a foot before he whirls around to see what kind of monster may be about to attack him. his heart rate calms down when he sees that it's just a normal looking girl (and hopefully not the source of the mysterious noises), but his expression turns sour quickly. normally, he'd at least fake an attempt at being little kinder and more courteous, but he looks like he's about as fed up with the forest as she is and just as haggard. ]
I wouldn't be standing around at all if I knew which way to go!
Pick a direction and commit! You're a man, aren't you?
[Mari spins the stick like a baton and points it at him. She doesn't have time for an argument. She's going to get out of these woods and she's going to do it in one piece, even if it means someone else has to be her meat shield.]
You should be offering me your hand and telling me we'll get out of here together.
[ he's raising his hands in mock surrender automatically when she points the stick at him again; the last thing he wants is to be scratched by that thing. who knows what kind of infections he might catch from a seemingly harmless poke? with all the whispers of monsters in this strange town, oikawa doesn't want to lend himself to any more vulnerabilities. ]
I'm a man who doesn't want to end up passing the same tree for the hundredth time!
[ he has to laugh a little at the irony of his current situation. he was used to girls saying similar things to him — or at least about wanting to be walked to class — but mari's tone is completely unlike theirs. still, despite her brashness, he can tell by one look she's in the same boat he is and he's not a monster. ( yet. )
he lowers his arms slowly before crossing them across his chest thoughtfully. ]
Ah — But I'm not the type to abandon a fellow lost stranger either. [ if she was asking that they try to find their way back together, it couldn't be too bad, right? plus, she's like the first human being he's seen in hours. oikawa simply raises an eyebrow, wondering if she'll pick up on the subtle invitation. ]
[So apparently chivalry is only sort of dead. She's been spoiled, apparently, spending so much time around police officers and self-proclaimed Champions of Justice. And Moe. Moe would carry her out of this place on her back if she asked. Actually, she probably wouldn't even have to ask.]
Good. So you start walking and I'll follow you. It's dark, so don't get too far ahead.
[She's too tired and scraped up to want to bother with the cute little lost girl act.]
