TEST DRIVE, MARCH ROUND

TEST DRIVE MEME
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.
  • The reserve date has been announced.
  • 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.

[He doesn't necessarily mind, but considering he's annoyed at everything at the moment, its likely unsurprising that the annoyed glare turns to an unimpressed glance upward until he happens to spot said young lady's wings. One blue and one green eye blink a few times in succession. What the hell was with this place?

Still, he can't stay annoyed for long with something like a fairy hovering over him.]


Depends on what you're dealing with, babe. Usually works pretty well, in my experience.

[And just like that, his temper evaporates like it had never been there in the first place, and he's turning to crane his neck upward.]

Whatcha lookin' at, huh?

Sure it does.

[She tries so hard not to laugh right away and to her credit, she doesn't. Seth shrugs and swings her legs idly over the branch. At least for her being lost around the place wasn't exactly new and compared to other things she'd dealt with, being lost as a godsend.]

I would think you'd be able to tell what I'm looking at. You can still see, right?
pandornah: (from the heart-attacked)

Well yeah I know what you're lookin' at now.

[And judging by his tone, he's pretty impressed by the fact that he's drawn some attention. The vanity practically oozes out of his pores. The smirk is both too sharp and too smooth when carved on the mask.]

But you're out here for a reason, right? Unless you've just been following me this whole time. Wouldn't blame you for that.
empressingly: (She looks like everything I need)

[She does chuckle at that. If there was one thing that was funny it was always people. Vain people especially. She slides off the branch and flutters down to the ground.]

I got bored, wanted to go for a walk...turned into a flying 101 lesson review. Don't worry though, you're not my type. I'm not going to stalking you anytime soon.

[Predictably, Jack scoffs at the idea. He steps forward confidently, and stops a few paces short of her. He's not a complete moron after all -- she's clearly more supernatural than he is.

A magical slap across the face probably hurts more than an actual fist. Its been a while.]


Its alright, I'm everyone's type, sweet cheeks.

[His mismatched eyes move to watch her wings move.]
