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.
[ Since waking up here, he is the first person to look at her as if she is a human being. Mako smiles to remember that she is one, to realise that she might not be quite as alone as she has been made to feel. Tokyo's Daughter is used to being one apart, to finding her own corner, to collecting books and practicing calligraphy to celebrate her difference instead of resenting it. It has just never happened before that she has found herself taken from equals and thrust so suddenly before a gaping crowd as if under a sign reading please do not feed the jaeger pilots.
Stacker always protected her from that before. Chuck reveled in the attention, puffed up for the cameras, but she never did. Never wanted to. ]
Yes.
[ She speaks shortly, but there's something about it that says she doesn't mean to be standoffish - it is simply that she doesn't talk much. ]
I woke - in a hospital. I was told there are others but I have not met any...
[To him there is humanity in many things, for the student doctor he see's the mental and the physical and he see's her, she is standing there facing him now and she is shorter than him, by at most four inches. She has a different look about her, something foreign, something that he had never seen before, never laid eyes upon but she smiles and that is fine, at least she is a kind face. She has dimples, her eyes are dark, she's wearing mens clothes other than a dress but she is very much a woman, strong looking, endured. Still, she is at least speaking to him, she is replying to him and it causes a sigh of relief to slide from his lungs, though it brought forward another cough which he turned his head for, coughing back into his sleeve and directing it away from the stranger.
What a horrible time to have sick an ailment, he should be quarantined not speaking to others and passing on his disease.
Despite that though, Joly lets the rasp in his cough calm before directing his gaze back to her and giving her a small look of apology. If he had his cane he might be standing straighter, not that he actually needed it, but it was more a comfort object than anything else. The other did not speak much but that was alright, in his world people spoke plenty but sometimes a small amount of words were better than elaborate prose no matter how beautiful they could be, simplicity was sincere and blunt, honest.]
Well allow me to introduce another. I too woke upd from the hospital not too long ago, all tub my name these tattered clothes and now a few pieces of paper. [Clothes riddled with rips and tears from the bullets, slight blood stain still around the edges.] They're rather mondstrous, but allow me. My nameb is Joly.
