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.
[ and there is greg who has emerged from the brambles off the side of the road, teapot still balanced perfectly on his head. there are thorns and leaves attached to his green overalls but he doesn't seem to notice, instead choosing to smile fixedly up at his favorite brother. his only brother. same deal! ]
I found yooooouuu. That's what we were doing, right? Having a rousing game of hide and seek?
[Wirt's hands fly to his face, fingertips digging lightly into his cheeks. Greg's here. Of course Greg's here. Why hadn't he thought to check who else they'd found? What was wrong with him? Now they were both lost. Lost, as a drop of rain would be in the boundless depths of the ocean. His arms drop to his sides, and he takes in a breath. No. Their destination lay ever ahead of them, though the road itself may be obscured. They will not be fated to wander, but instead become masters of their own path.]
You... you found me! So we should stop playing immediately. You win.
Old Lady Daniels says the game is never over until the fat lady sings.
[ or something like that. and there's no fat lady around here, nope. so as he sees it, he's free to run off and hide whenever things get boring again. ]
You were hard to find brother o' mine. You didn't tell me you were such a good hider.
[He should really know better by now. Wirt rolls his eyes, gesturing back to... is that where Greg came out of the brambles? He can't remember. Oh, well. An approximation of where Greg came out of the brambles. That works.]
Never mind that. We should go. Go back the way you came from. You do remember where you came from, right?
'Course I do. I came from thataway-- or was it thisaway?
[ whichaway was it? he squints, eyeing the forest around them. after a moment he decides on a direction that is the opposite of where wirt is gesturing. ]
[Wirt drags one hand down his face, letting out a sigh. He steps over the paper -- or tries to, stopping to shake off a piece or two that cling to his shoe -- and starts to head in Greg's chosen direction.]
Come on. We should try to get out of here before it gets too dark.
