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.
[Make it a herring, please, if you're taking requests. Otherwise he's just gonna keep tripping right into 'how much aggressive can he throw in before the passive part doesn't count' land. Won't even care, either. Sure, these townsfolk are probably just afraid, more than any kind of charity, but, well. Since when has that stopped him, ever?]
Oh, you know, I think I could find some pretty good uses for these little guys. [Kindling is a usage, right?] Oughta come in handy one of these days! [Maybe he can collect enough to make another suit...]
Oh yeah, absolutely in handy. Right about a month from now.
[As someone from his world, he probably should be a little more concerned that Gideon not...get eaten or mauled or all the fun stuff happened to Dipper his first few weeks here. But come on, it's Gideon. He's put the twins through way too much for Dipper to feel sympathetic for him now.]
That's not even made up, it probably will be pretty much exactly a month.
[ Mabel nods, trying to be at least...a tiney, eensey bit helpful. So her conscience doesn't come back and bit her later. Gideon's a creep, but no one deserves to be completely unprepared.
A month's plenty of time to get a leg up, you'll see!
[How bad could it be? Well. Probably really, really. If you know him a bit, the nerves show through, but the crowd probably don't. And what they don't know's sure gonna hurt 'em.
But if he's got... if he's got some kind of edge by then, well. Maybe that'd take the sting out of things. Besides, he's got stuff to sell. Hard to do that if you're gonna spend your time sulking in the corner instead of trying to find just a little bit of spotlight.]
You'll see, indeed. [Thought he wouldn't do that creepy whisper thing, didn't you?]

Probably?
Having morals is rough, man. ]
