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.
[Fuu considers that for a moment. This woman seems so serious, so sure of all this...and none of this is anything like Japan at all, come to think of it. Even the way people are dressed, it's totally different.]
I guess that means this really is a different land, isn't it?
[Which makes sense, but doesn't really make things any better. How does she get home, then?! And what kind of place even has demons, some western country? It's just mind-boggling. She focuses on the pamphlets again, frowning at them...and then offers a bit of an apologetic smile, holding one up for Guila to see. "What not to eat: the demon's guide to tasty souls."]
Looks like you might have to deal with demons again here, though...if any of this is even for real.
[Which she's still skeptical about. Desperately skeptical, though, as in oh god please don't let any of this be true!!]
[ Never heard of Japan over here! If thugs are the worst of their worries she's pretty sure she could straighten it all up on her own...
Ah, but she really shouldn't fight like that. ]
Different from my own as well. It's quite unlike anything I've ever seen.
[ They're at a port but no one here has even heard of Liones that she's met, which is worrying. It means that she's very, very distant, and that she's not getting a lift home from any ships either.
Her expression drops at the sight of that pamphlet. ]
I truly hope not for both our sake.
[ She dips into a polite bow. ]
But where are my manners? I am Guila, a knight of Liones.
[Fuu offers a sheepish smile at that.] Don't take this the wrong way, but-- I'm a little relieved, to be honest. I mean...it's nice to know I'm not the only one who doesn't know what's going on.
[She grimaces a bit, though, noticing the drop in expression. That definitely hadn't been her intention. Her expression turns apologetic as she returns the bow, polite but a little stiff.]
[ Guila's smile fits back on quickly enough - aside from that worry about demons, she still looks calm. Outward calm is something she's practiced well. ]
A pleasure, Miss Fuu. I think there are at least a few of us who are a bit lost.
[ More than a bit - but she's the knight here, she needs to act steadfast. ]
It is my homeland - a powerful kingdom, and a noble one.

My name is Fuu. It's nice to meet you, Guila!
[A beat.]
I'm curious, though..."Liones?"
