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...

What might have seemed like a large ball rolled past, but stopped short and doubled back to examine the new comer with a tilt of it's head plate, whistling and beeping curiously before approaching with a cheery demeanor. As much as that could be shown off by a droid at least.

It chattered excitedly, and tried to motion for the man to follow.

Well, this was interesting, what a strange little spirit to stop and visit with him.

"Hello."

He wasn't able to quite understand what it was that the ball was saying, but he was able to tell that it seemed quite friendly. It also seemed that it wanted him to follow it, perhaps this was the reason he had chosen this particular street. Iroh followed the spirit, though he was curious about such a strange one compared to the others he had seen.

"Where is it that you leading me little one?"

The droid might have answered, it whistled and wobbled meaningfully, but it seemed to be able to tell it was going more or less misunderstood.

He raced on along just ahead of Iroh before stopping short before one of the buildings and calling for his Master.

A man peered out from a window of the building he'd been exploring with a puzzled look.

"You what?" he called back, climbing down to greet the droid with a fond pat before he looked up offered Iroh a grin from where he was crouched.

"He thinks you're a Jedi," he explained with a chuckle, gesturing to Iroh's clothes, "He was very proud of himself for finding you. You're new right?" He pushed to his feet to offer a hand.

"I'm Poe. Poe Dameron. This here is BB-8."

So it was not somewhere but someone that it was leading him to? Iroh smiled warmly,

"I do not know what a Jedi is, but I am honored that your spirit friend thought of me to be among them. And yes, I have only recently arrived after a long journey."

It took a moment for Iroh to recognize the gesture, but once he did the older man shook Poe's outreached hand.

"Iroh. It is an honor to meet you both."

Spirit friend? Poe arched a brow and looked down at his droid in amusement, but didn't offer a correction, shaking Iroh's hand firmly.

"A Jedi is someone who works with the Force back home. They're pretty rare these days. But you've got the look. So. Iroh, what do you think of the place?"

"I have worked with many forces in my day. Though now the only force that I listen to mainly is the one in my stomach."

Iroh laughed a moment as he patted his belly.

"It is a most interesting place. There are many marvels and wonders here, and yet I can tell that it has seen many conflicts as well."
