Spring 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...

And she knew it was foolish to trust no one, especially in a foreign place.]
How can I see others without being present?
no subject
I am Sansa Stark, Queen in the North. I know you but it seems like you haven't met me yet. This place...does that from time to time. As to how you can see others over this? It's magic. They call it technology and science here but as you and I know it, it's magic. It's beyond even what the Old Valyrians could do, I imagine.
no subject
The image of a wolf headed corpse in the House of the Undying flashes in her mind before disappearing.
There were other things to focus on, the matter of thrones and crowns better to be pushed aside for now.]
Magic. I have seen enough of it in my life, but it was never as strong or as powerful as this.
no subject
( Sansa, too, had an easier time because of Tyrion's knowledge of the Fleet. It had prepared them both for being here in Temba. Now Daenerys was coming here to a land she's never seen before and Sansa and Tyrion have the advantage of her. She's professed to not even know her so clearly this isn't the Daenerys hell bent on destroying the world she intended to save. )
We'll help you. You're one of us, after all.
no subject
This, perhaps, was the first that someone was offering her kindness without desiring something in return. So many others had hosted and helped her brother, but only for his title of king and the potential of power. Illyrio had sold her for profit, Viserys for an army.
She had helped herself all of her life, now there was someone offering to be kind to her, a stranger. It was overwhelming.]
Forgive me...I wasn't well before arriving. Is there something I can drink? Water or wine perhaps? My head is spinning.
no subject
( Sansa tries to put herself in the place of Daenerys, coming to somewhere so strange and feeling ill atop of it. It's not something she would want and she thinks that no matter what her own experience with Daenerys had been before, she does owe this one her kindness. )
no subject
Your son? You have a son here?
no subject
(Sansa makes a point of bringing fresh water and a bit of bread along with her, in case Daenerys wants to try and eat something. It doesn't take her long to get to where she's going and she's rewarded by silvery-hair being caught by the wind. )
Daenerys? It's Sansa. I brought you some water and a bit of bread. James too, but he'll sleep. The wolf is Lady. Don't let her beggar you for crumbs. She knows better.
( She's grateful she's figured out how to make the carrying sling for him or otherwise she'd be stuck at home. )
no subject
There was another part of her as well that felt a pang of regret and envy. It seemed so long ago since she carried Rhaego and felt him move in her belly. A future without that made seeing other children a bit difficult, as though she were swallowing a morsel of food wrong. Regret never rested well, not on the heart, not in the stomach and not in the throat.]
She is a large wolf. [She accepted the water, drinking it nearly empty. After the berries and wandering the sea, she was parched.] She isn't a normal wolf, is she?
no subject
She's a direwolf. I don't know how much you know of House Stark, but our sigil is a direwolf the same as yours is a dragon. They're very important to us and Lady is...something this place gave me when she was taken from me far too soon.
Are you feeling all right? Do you need food or anything before we go back to my home?
no subject
[Was he home now? Had he taken the pardon? She could only hope that he was living a better life now, even if it was far from her side. He wouldn't be forced to wander with her, searching for a true home.]
Your home? You would take me there?
no subject
( While Sansa is clever with a lie, she finds as she goes on that this isn't one. She's still wary because Daenerys Targaryen is no one to underestimate but she's not cruel. She won't leave her to suffer when she's ill and especially when it seems she isn't the person Sansa knows her to be. )
no subject
[She's still uneasy next to Sansa, uncertain how she would be received. Yet as they went on with the conversation, she found herself relaxing and seeking a friend, her heart aching for Irri or Missandei.]
no subject
( Sansa aches for her, remembering when she'd first shown up in a foreign place with what she'd thought was strange magic all around. )
But we can start with a cup of tea, all right? If that doesn't work, we're going to see a doctor.
