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.
[ It was his usual trip to Vandare; an effort to welcome new arrivals. To make them aware not only of their future, but that the also had a means of support. He knew that this stage could be deeply overwhelming, but others had agreed that it was far better for well-informed Changed to be meeting the new arrivals than to trust the pamphlets and propaganda that the locals had drawn up instead.
(Not that he himself wasn't handing out pamphlets, but that was besides the point. His were honestly useful. A meeting place for more information, a gathering of experienced Changed that could coach those who were knew through the shock, and the truth of what they were to experience.)
When she backed into him she would not miss the unusual shift- his white wings readjusting themselves from the unexpected pressure against them. He pivoted elegantly upon his heel, red and black eyes fixing to meet her own. He tilted his head just slightly, curling white bone horns knocking left as he took stock of the slight woman before him. ]
No harm done. [ He promised, giving her a clipped, but gentle nod. If she paid close enough attention, she would have seen the sharpened teeth waiting in his mouth. ]
You have recently washed up on our shores, am I correct? I apologize that circumstances have brought you here, but please be assured that you are at least, in understanding company.
