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.
[He doesn't begrudge the fact that she avoids his hand. Part of him might even be glad for it. But Jack turns to walk back down the path with his daughter in tow, occasionally altering how he walks to make sure he can hear an echoing pair of steps behind him.
Perhaps surprisingly, he has fallen silent. The situation is not even close to being ideal, and with the destruction of New Haven, Pandora was finally on track to having Order. There was clearly no Order here on this peninsula, and they were slated to become monsters, something Jack had (in his mind) been striving against.
And now they were messing with his little girl.]
We'll be OK.
[He needs to hear it more than she does when the laughter echoes in the woods again.]
[ It's like the old tales, she thinks watching him, biting angry thoughts behind his back. But he didn't know those ones, never been interested in the stories she liked. If he did, maybe he would know, that if leading someone back from the dead, you weren't supposed to look back lest they be dragged back to Hades. Meets everyone of his little glances evenly and without remorse. Then again, on second thought, maybe she should trick him into it, and they both could be free of this.
Persephone, perhaps, had the better idea of it.
Back to his habits as quickly, using her to justify himself. The words she knew, had nothing to do with her, because it was unsettling, yes, but she was in some ways used to that laughter.
Tempting as it is to let him stew in it, she takes a breath and does her best to keep them both calm. It wouldn't serve either way. ]
We can't be the only ones lost here. They made pamphlets. That must mean this is all fairly usual.
