Summer Test Drive Meme!




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...

Oh...

Her ears wilted a little, glancing about with an unfamiliar weight of guilt, and she frowned uncertainly. It was probably the closest she was going to get to any kind of apology.

The lightening flash and crash of thunder that followed interrupted any growth that moment might have brought, making her shriek and scamper on ahead before looking back with an embarrassed heat to her cheeks.

"Nnn- come on, hurry up Old Man," she grumbled.

Though she hadn't said anything, Iroh could tell from her expression that she felt she had been a bit harsh. He could not fault her for it though, he had been a foolish old man to wander out into a storm to chase a ghost from his past.

"Thank you for your concern, and for coming with me in this weather. Perhaps we should seek someplace to shelter for the time being?"

Iroh did follow, though there did seem to be several of the buildings that would be suitable for getting out of the rain. As for the lightning, it didn't worry him, he had learned to deal with it several years ago.

"I can make us a fire so that we can dry off and keep warm."

"Whatever," she muttered, trying to dismiss the thanks with a shrug, but those ears gave her away more than she might like, softening her expression.

Another crash of thunder, and Catra was all too willing to duck into the nearest building, smoothing down the floof of her tail with a flush and trying to shake the rain from her hair.

"Yeah, a fire might help," she agreed. They were better off staying put out of the way than trying to make it back through the storm.

"Such is true during many turbulent times. Trying to fight against it or force your way through can leave you tired and no better than when you started."

As they entered the building, Iroh seemed to take a moment and center himself, breathing in and holding for a moment before he breathed out and the water that had soaked him through seemed to turn to steam. Moments later he began to gather a few pieces of scrap wood, finding a place that seems like it would serve best for a fire without it spreading.

"I'm afraid that I haven't caught your name yet. What should I call you?"
