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...

I'll take it up next time. [ A half smile. ]

I'd probably be wondering why no one else was doing shit, honestly.

It's maddening, the way other people don't keep up. It takes focus to stay at levels other people live at.

Anything us slowpokes can do to make that easier? [ She means it. Maybe she should know it given her time around Pietro, but they spent more time snarking at each other (even when on the same teams) in varying levels that it never came up. ]

[See, but she gets it, in a way. From interacting with Pietro she has to GET IT. That it's hard to focus. Does she get it? He doesn't actually know.]

Don't call me impatient? Like, people do that all the time. And don't get in my face about twitching. I do it sometimes to try and keep time with normal people.

Anyone and everyone who says things like that to you can not-so-kindly go fuck themselves. [ He's fast, not impatient or twitchy. ] But yeah, of course.

Yeah, people only think of 'oh cool you're fast'. They don't think about the problems it makes for you.

I mean, for what it's worth, I already know you handle it better than I would. [ She can hardly keep up with herself at non-speedy speeds.... ]

If you were like me, then you'd handle it.
