TEST DRIVE
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...

Was?

[He flashes her a curious look.]

Did you leave them because of their 'mess ups'?

Not exactly. [ Mostly because of hers. ] But also, because I think I'm maybe not on the team when I'm launched into this world, you know.
fantasykiller: (So..Yeah.)

[personal profile] fantasykiller 2020-02-19 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh?

[He tilts his head in confusion.]

No, I don't know. What do you mean by 'maybe'? Are you saying that because you got kidnapped here they might mark you as MIA and remove you?

[personal profile] geomagnetically 2020-02-21 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, pretty much. I'm technically AWOL, MIA, et cetera. Not really a team player with them now.
fantasykiller: (Whoa!)

[personal profile] fantasykiller 2020-02-22 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. Well, hopefully once you return home, they'll let you back on once you explain what happened...

[His voice trails off and his eyes suddenly widen as a horrible realization dawns upon him.]

Shit, I just realized something! I'm suppose to be taking make-up lessons right now! I've already missed too many days and this was my last chance! I'm sorry Komoe-sensei! It looks like I'm destined to repeat next year...

[The teenager slumps his head in despair.]

Do them here and hope the credits transfer? Self teaching is legit.
fantasykiller: (So..Yeah.)

And how exactly will I do that without any of my textbooks or internet? I doubt post-apocalyptic worlds have conveniently placed quantum physics books lying around for me to collect and study from.
