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.
[It's obvious he's trying not to sound too hopeful. Maybe that isn't the last thing that happened. Maybe Greg is home, safe. Wirt starts walking again, faster this time.]
[She hesitates. There's a chance that Wirt was just being thick, that he hadn't questioned everything like she had. But if it was just her... what if it was just her? Or a prank?]
--nothing! I was just seeing if you were listening or not! [Nailed it.]

Let's keep moving. It can't be much further.

...so they gave you a bunch of things about turning into something, right? You didn't just pick that up from somewhere.
no subject
Uh, maybe? I mean, I didn't actually read them. I kind of assumed they were all crazy after reading the titles.

She smooths out the pamphlet he gave her earlier, giving it a thoughtful look before hitting him upside the head with it.]
Wirt! You're in a weird new place where they tell you you're going to turn into a monster and you didn't even read the stuff they gave you?!
no subject
Ow! Hey! They didn't-- [He stops, reconsidering the most important part of the sentence.] Turn into a monster? What do you mean, turn into a monster?!
