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.

Yeah! ( Responding to the question first, showing his brochure-holding hand, festooned with a bandaid. ) But I'm fine! Don't worry about me, my economy is great. ( It's an mix of egoism and a sincere desire to reassure Vietnam that he's fine — his smile widens, and falters slightly as he notices the weird… uh… maybe they're hair decorations? There, behind her ears? Who is he to judge people's weird tastes? )

I figured we were kidnapped because I definitely don't remember coming here. It's kinda like that Christmas a few years ago, isn't it? ( Huh… wait, she said something about having been here months. With sympathy: ) Did the cat people get you first?

[Awww, poor Denmark, randomly attacked by doctors.] I am sure it will still be fine, yes. [Because dammit just give her his money--no I mean she admires such working economies, trying to make her own awesome and all.

Also, if only he knew.]

I did not either, just dragged from the sea. But you're right, I guess it is a little similar. [She shakes her head though.] It's...ah, I'm not sure if it is cat people who kidnapped us. There are cat people here though.

The same ones? ( With polite interest. Really, that's about as seriously as he's taking this whole situation — just another weird holiday event! — and he looks around as though he'll spot them lurking in the shadows (hey, that's how it happened last time!). )

I was in the sea too! It's kinda weird, isn't it? It feels different from the North Sea.
