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.

Eeek! [There's a loud pop and a flurry of confetti in Hiro's face as Trucy jumps back.] Get away! Don't eat me!
hirobotics: (ANYTHING BUT THAT)

[The combination of the pop and the confetti startles Hiro enough that he stumbles backward, trips over a protruding tree root, and falls to the ground on his back with a yelp. His eyes are wide and it takes him a second to realize what just happened, watching some of the confetti still drift toward the ground.]

W-What?? I'm not gonna- Who are you?!
magic_act: (hit the crowd with speed and ferocity!)

[Suddenly she has a pair of frilly, blue bloomers in one hand, furiously digging into them with the other.]

I'm a magician, and I'm not afraid to use this!

[From the panties she produces a baton of some sort, or a wand, or who knows, but the end of it's thrust towards Hiro's face!]

hirobotics: (HEY don't hit me!!)

[Hiro has no idea what to make of this. A girl claiming to be a magician pulled some kind of stick from giant panties and has it pointed at his face.

So, naturally, his knee jerk reaction is to be annoyed.]
Dude! Are you nuts?! What's your problem?!
magic_act: (oh no...)

[personal profile] magic_act 2015-03-04 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
My problem is you, you monster! [The stick is waved threateningly at him... until, it seems, the strange girl finally realizes who and what she's looking at.

Slowly, the stick is lowered.]
--Oh! You're not a monster.
hirobotics: (go bug someone else)

[Hiro makes a face at her.] Ya think??

[He's now just... going to pull himself back up onto his feet, wiping off the seat of his pants with an annoyed frown.] Do you always sneak up on people and then accuse them of being a monster?
magic_act: (polly! that's called a stepladder!)

[personal profile] magic_act 2015-03-04 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh, gosh, she's really sorry about that, really, and she's about to tell him so, but then he's frowning and grouching at her, and that's just not fair. Hands on her hips, she huffs right back.]

Hmph! I do when they're giggling creepily into the night! What do you expect, doing something like that!?
hirobotics: (hmph. perfect.)

[personal profile] hirobotics 2015-03-04 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[Hiro narrows his eyes a little. As far as he's concerned, he has every right to be grouchy with the falling down and getting threatened with a stick being waved in his face and being called a monster for no reason.]

That wasn't me. I don't know what that was, but it definitely wasn't me.
