Application FAQ | Taken Characters | Reserves | Application



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...

- Is that a chill in the air? It seems to be getting just a little colder, day by day... or maybe it's your imagination? But just in case it's not, you might want to thinking about prepping for what could be winter. Does that mean gathering plants to dry for food? Stockpiling water, or trying to get the power to stay steady in the buildings so you won't freeze (does it even get down to freezing, here - who knows!)? It's up to you!

- 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...

Okay- Billy takes a cautious step back. This guys is...angry. Probably not something he can't handle, but still.

"I mean...if I knew that I wouldn't be here," he mutters, offering an uncertain shrug, "We're stuck. All of us. So...you can claim the ship if you want, but eventually the Agrii are going to force some of us in here whether you like it or not. That's kind of how they roll."

"Nobody forces me to do anything," he bites back. "Where are the Agrii? I'll force them to give me a ship out of here and then I'll bring back my fleet and obliterate the lot of them."

"How exactly do you plan to do that?" Billy asks, "None of us have ever seen them. They send us messages some times. And gifts. That's about all the interaction we get. You're going to have a hard time forcing them to do anything..."

"Messages and gifts?" Ren asks, not bothering to try and keep the derision out of his voice. "What are you, their pets?

"I mean...maybe? But that'd make you one too, now, so..." Billy offers a bit of a pointed look. He can look down on them if he wants, but he's one of them now, whether he likes it or not. "They call us their heroes, mostly. They want us to help them."
