Welcome to the Current Test Drive for The Revival Project!

This game is a spin-off from the closed The Drift Fleet game. For more information about the game, including more details on the setting, please check out the FAQ here or the premise here.

A thread on the TDM will be required for all applications. Please view the FAQ for information about how this works. Any questions about the game please direct to the comment section of the FAQ as well.

If you are a Drift Fleet alumni bringing your character from the game, please label your character as 'DFAU' on your top level. Also, keep in mind you have complete flexibility on how your character comes here. They could be taken before endgame, after endgame, two years after, one year before, etc. It's up to you! If you want to completely restart your character, they're not considered DFAU anymore and won't need the label.

So go! Explore Agra 10! And, as always, HAVE FUN!

Thread ideas:

- Explore the city! There's a map here and a bit more description of some of the buildings here. Most of the buildings are run down and have clearly been abandoned for years; fortunately, the water treatment center appears to be working, but power is intermittent and unreliable. The hotel seems to be the most crowded, but you might want into what appears to be an abandoned storefront and find someone else scavenging or even sleeping.

- There are spaceships! That's right, there are currently several small spaceships grounded in the hangar. They appear to have power, but only one ship will let you enter. (For test drive purposes, the ship that will let you enter is up to you, so just pick whichever name appeals, and go for it!) The other ships won't open for you, but it might be worth poking around the one that will...

- Do you hear a storm? A giant, power-altering storm has been ravaging part of the planet for a month. It shows ghosts of people you know and those you don't. It drains you of any super-human abilities and tries its best to keep you from getting to its origin. Are you going to try anyways? Or are you going to chase the whispers of people from your past? More information can be found here.

- Can you hear me now? Upon arrival, your character will have on their person a small, handheld communications device. Maybe they know exactly how to use a computer, smartphone, or tablet, and immediately blast out a text or video trying to figure out what's going on. Or maybe they're not so tech-savvy after all, and everyone is about to get a lovely shot right up your character's left nostril.

- Wildcard! You're welcome to use any previous test drive scenarios or previous game events as a basis for a thread/situation, or simply make up your own! Keep in mind that you're currently stranded on a planet with only basic necessities, but there is enough food and fresh water. Creature comforts, however, seem to be distinctly lacking...

[ loki blinks. ]

What makes you think I would not notice?

[Steve blinks in response too.]

You did?

You are one of my first friends. How could I not?

There was a lot going on. You had your own mission you were going on. I guess I thought...

[ He shrugs. ]

It's nice to know that.

[ loki hums. ]

I thought I made myself clear before I left.

I suppose so.

[ He chuckles a little ]

Remember, it's been a few years for me.

Has it really been that long?

Yeah. Six years since I saw you last.

[ His face falls with that fact. ]

Not all of that was here. I spent a few years hopping planets. But then I came here and I searched for you and Bucky. I only found one.

[ ah. ]

I thought you'd return home.

No. I heard about what happened there and where I ended up. It seemed like everything with me tied up in a bow. So...I just stayed.

[ loki frowns slightly but he nods. ]

I suppose the universe is large enough to accommodate.

[Steve frowns himself a little.]

I guess not that it made a difference. I'd just be grabbed again.

Did you see the puppets?

[He shakes his head. No.]

I was looking for the Atroma. But I heard about them.

[ hmm. ]

Is Vash the Stampede here?

No. He never came over.

[ shame. loki would like to pass on a little revenge. ]

I suspect the puppets left behind by the Atroma might be responsible.

[Okay. That is alarming and something he hadn't considered yet.]

You think the Agrii are the puppets? Or being controlled by the puppets?

It's possible. They were left alive, after all. Against my better judgement.

[Okay. Not a great thing to hear.]

I think I remember vaguely. They were going to take the freed core to visit planets and continue Drifting for whoever wanted to go with them?
