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.
[ ...She found him out. He makes a mental note to find and talk to Kairi about this later—Xion herself didn't seem in a state for it, and with months being behind him, Roxas feels like he has a lot of things to catch up on. For now, yeah. He presses a hand back over his stomach, quelling the urge to squeeze his twisting stomach. Claws in your skin isn't all that comfortable, and he needs this shirt. He swallows. ]
I'm... starving. [ He says it quietly, in case there's anyone listening. Now that he's said it out loud, the hunger feels a little more painful. ] I don't even know if they fed me while I was in the hospital. I don't even remember how I got there... [ He lowers his hand from her arm and brings his eyes to the ground. ]
I'm still changed, so I guess that doesn't matter. I don't feel any different.
He'd left before anyone even knew exactly what it was they were hungry for. Before finding out the only thing that could really satiate the hungry was human flesh, or something like it.
All of a sudden she sags limply. He'd gone, only to return to this. How had he managed to not eat anyone in so long? To still be in control? Xion can't figure it out.]
Roxas... I.. I should have some food. Maybe. I think. Come on.
[ Why is she so down again, suddenly? Even if she had been crying a moment ago and worried about Axel, she seemed happy to be back with him, at least. So why the change in atmosphere? Was it because he hadn't changed? Or found a way to reverse the effects of becoming a monster?
Brows furrowed, he tries to offer her a reassuring smile, waving a hand in defense. ]
I-I can catch something for myself, Xion. I can't take the food you guys already have. I should go into the woods and find something, or maybe I can fish.
No, no. It's alright. We have more than enough for you too! Our stockpiles are pretty big since I'm never full anymore, so I eat quite a bit!
[She smiles, but it doesn't reach her eyes. He doesn't know, so she wont tell him.
Not yet, anyway. It's better to let him eat some human meat and feel better than to let him try and quell the hunger with fish or deer or something like that and have him go berserk and hurt people in the end.]
[ There's something off. Roxas can't point out what it is, though he offers her a smile back, trying to seem entirely sincere about it. He trusts her. And she trusts him too, right? Her words seem reassuring enough, so he's going to look past his weird gut feelings. It's probably nothing anyway. ]
Alright. I can help you restock later on. [ He's thinking she means that she's never full as a figure of speech... ] You definitely look like you eat a lot more. You've changed. You look... furrier.
Because I am furrier. And these antlers grow back every time they break off. Which happens more often then I like. [She laughs, but it's mostly to hide how uncomfortable she is.]
I'm gonna try to help you look out for that from now on. [ Once he learns how to turn into a tiny bird eventually, he'll be able to do it all the time!! ] That doesn't sound fun. Are you and Walter still living in Bavan?
Yeah, right next to the lake. Walter turned into a Merman, so he needs the water a lot of the time. It's more convenient like that. Especially with the forest close too.
[ Sorry but. Roxas is really starving. He'll get them started on walking, ignoring the angry churn of his stomach. He keeps a hand (claw?) over his stomach, but he can at least walk normally, though his eyes are squinted, as if that would ease his pangs of hunger. ]
Anything else I should know about? You said Demyx and Larxene showed up too, right? Where are they?
[She'll start leading, even if he does know the way back.]
Uhm... I'm not really sure where they are, to be honest. Bavan, I think. Also there's a fourth god too now, who's fighting with the fog god over us apparently?
They're fighting over us? [ It's concerning that there's another god around, but also important that they not be treated like some kind of toys to be fought over. ] You mean they want control of us, as monsters? Who are they?

Not that it hurts or anything.
no subject
That's good. They just break off without warning, or-? [ How do deer work ]
no subject
[And it's ridiculously itchy at that.]
